I've been waiting anxiously for this, Bri. Thank you for upgrading the first NPC I ever tried!

However, I just downloaded the Tashia remix, but for a SoA and ToB NPC mod (with voicing, non?) 2.5mb seems a bit small.

Am I spoiled? or is there something I missed?

Well, the original Tashia wasn't that big either. What you may be used to is that almost every NPC module that is released has full voiced audio included with it. This factor alone drives up the size of the module.

We had some discussion as to whether make Tashia voiced or not. For the moment, it was decided no. The majority of new material was more dialogues, lovetalks, riddles for ToB, etc. Basically, text...and compared to audio, that doesn't take up much room.

I see. Not that it matters much, though, Tashia is on board anyway.

That is, if I'm able to install the Mod. I can't install either the Action Style- or the Baldurized Dialogues.

I've attached a screenshot with the error. . . . Edit: err, it seems I'm unable to attach the ss.

Ugh, I hate when that happens. Unfortunately, we won't be able to address that sort of problem until Monday. Sorry :(

Congratulations on the release of the module. I am looking forward to playing again, with Tashia, but...
I am also unable to load the action styled or baldurized dialogues. So, I will wait for Monday to start up again.
Thanks for the work you, and all modders, have done!

Ugh, if that is happening as well...let me download it here, and if it happens to me, I will remove the download link, and definitely have it addressed Monday.

No worries, I am not in a hurry or something. I'm just glad you kept working on it, I can wait a little longer. Good luck, in any case!

Well, if it won't even run, that isn't good. Anyways, it will take me a little while to download it anew, and see what it does to me (no, no access to DSL, etc. on this end)

Ugh, I see what the problem is. As a result, I'm going to go ahead and remove the link. Sorry, I guess it will be Monday.

Argh. Sorry folks, just got back in and heard what happened. That's what you get when trying to minimize a download... I removed a bogus file from the list, but not from the install file.

It's fixed and should be working now.

Congratulations! :cheers:
Ihmeellinen meri

Kummalliset kalat liukuvat syvyydessä,
tuntemattomat kukat loistavat rannalla;
olen nähnyt punaista ja keltaista ja kaikki toiset värit -
mutta ihana meri on vaarallista nähdä,
se herättää tulevien seikkailujen janon:
mitä on tapahtunut sadussa, on tapahtuva minullekin.

Hurray! :cheers:

Now I can finally finish what I started more than four years ago. :D (Tashia was my first BG II Mod-I think even before any of Weimer's, but that was a long time ago :P ).

I have to say, though, I will definitely miss her voice. :( I really liked April Ryan.

I know you've put in an incredible amount of time and effort and I want to say congratulations on your success, and thank you! :Bow:



edit: Did you ever include that bit with the fur purchase? ( Umar Hills, I think it was...)

Yep, we had it where one could make a pelt into a fur coat, and give it to Tashia.

Cool, I always thought that was a nice touch.
