Well, I got through BGT, including DSotSC, NTotSC, the expanded SoBH, and then NeJ1 and Chateau Irenicus (NeJ1 is a tough slog after trying the new version, but unless and until compatibility is permitted and achieved, it will have to do....) On the plus side, I actually got through the Vale of Shadows on Insane Difficulty, without cheating! (except, of course, for retrieving the items I had at the end of BG1).

Now I'm in Athkatla, and I've got the Edwin Romance and the Kivan mods installed. I'll see how far I get--it's been a long time since I got into ToB in a BP game!

Anyhow, when I got to Edwin, when I clicked on him, he gave me his parting dialogue from BG1 and walked off. Then another Edwin appeared, and clicking on him gave the proper BG2 dialogue. When he joined my party, he was missing his necklace and Mae'Var's key. CLUA'ing in the key is easy enough, but is there a way to CLUA his necklace into the proper place? Just adding it to the game, if it can't be removed, does nothing but tie up an inventory slot. And I haven't been able to get NI working properly, and SK doesn't work with BP, and I haven't been able to make heads or tails of DLTCEP at all yet.

Certainly not a game-breaker, just an inconvenience...if anyone has any suggestions, they'll be much appreciated.

Can you also check what version of NI you are using and what version of Java you have installed?

NI version is 1.32. Java is Java 2, Version 1.5.0, build 02.b09.

Haven't managed to progress real far. The TDD areas don't work on my map, and I've had trouble identifying the area codes. For that matter, CtB areas are on my map, and I don't have it installed (I tried, unsuccessfully, to add it to this game).

I may just cut the extras and head for Spellhold.

You do have Yacomo's Worldmap mod installed right?

Tired of Bhaal? Try some classics mods instead:
