The one where he goes to take a walk and she follows him, etc. If I try to do this with Edwin alive and in the party, BG2 crashes to desktop. If he's dead or not in the party, it proceeds fine. Before the time for that talk I had no problems resting outside with the same party makeup (Edwin, Xan, K&K, PC, Yasraena). I ended up working around this by ctrl-ying Edwin and resting/advancing the real time counter a few times. I couldn't exactly say at what talk I ressed edwin and was able to rest outside again with him in group, but eventually it started working again. Weird.

Anyway I've been having a lot of fun with this mod, it's just a shame that I can't have more people in my party... two spaces is a lot to give up. But I am really enjoying the quest, it is very well done, better than any of the official ones. :)

Sadly this problem reoccurred and I can't trigger the talk to edwin on rest thing and I really don't want to kill him in the seida fight... :(

I can safely say that I don't know what causes the night walk crash, never had that problem probably because I don't tend to have Edwin that early in the game (I usually have K&K around during Rayic, and I'll rest once in Windspear to get that Nightwalk scene).



!!SPOILER!!






















Regarding Edwin, it is in fact possible NOT to kill him during the Seida showdown. If he is in your party, after Aran gives you the choice to Restock before going to meet Seida, do take the option to go have a break. Leave the Thieves Guild - K&K should comment something, and once that is done find a place to rest.

During this rest, you will have the option to speak to Edwin and make it worth his while to remain on your side. If you say to him anything other than apologise for disturbing him, he WILL leave the party NO MATTER the OUTCOME. That being said, if you accuse him, he will leave the party and show up in the Seida Meeting. He will NOT be able to be found at the Copper Coronet.

For the Bribe, while you don't have to pay him *THAT* much, you do have to pay him a reasonable sum for him to double-cross Seida. Alternatively if you're very Charming and have reasonable Intelligence or Wisdom to understand what Seida is doing, you can bribe him much less but still talk him to his Senses.

At this juncture Edwin will betray Seida (dealing damage) and join you, or if your party is full he will leave for the CC where you can pick him up later (though I think the Betrayal is more fun).
