i accepted his quest to spy on mae'var, did all of mae'vars and edwins quests, came back with the evidence, and he orders me to go and finish off mae'var. so far so normal, the strange part is that upon doing so, he and all the shadow thieves become hostile...and sudden death arkanis gath appear

this happens if i agree to kill maevar, if i refuse to, if i say i will think about it...basically, if i talk to renal...my guess would be that the additional shadowthieves content is messing things up, maybe it set a variable that i sided with mae'var or something of the likes...so how do i undo that?

i know, i m having lots of trouble recently...

in the meanwhile i have tried to do mae'vars version instead, i.e. betray renal...
which works fine, but i would kinda like to get the thief stronghold, since appearantly due to the installed multiple strongholds component i need all of them to get to soubar...

It could depends on a known problem with Ding0's Quest Pack. I've found this thread (click me). Look is that your problem and if it helps.

Feedback would be nice.

nice, the CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("MAEVAREXPOSED","GLOBAL",0) did the trick

although meavar (and his guild) didnt turn hostile either and i had to taunt him into attacking me...

[Leomar]

Nice, that the trick could help you.

Steve, do you have a fix for this problem in your new "Ding0's Quest Pack" fixes?

Greetings Leomar

[Steve]

No, my fixes deal with proper targeting and the afterlife.

[Leomar]

Thanks for your answer, Steve.

Encountered this in BWP v15.7.  Bug reported 8 years ago and still didn't fixed. Maybe, we'd humbly ask Lollorian to look into it and integrate fix to BW fixpack?

 

BTW, solution described here worked for me, but I've used CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("MAEVAREXPOSED","GLOBAL",2) instead of '0' after pause, then my PC provoked Mae'Var to attack and cleaned his guild.

 

P.S.: In install manual component is marked as turning thieves hostile, but somehow is being installed anyway

You encountered this bug in your new BWS? That is unfortunate, I wrote current mod moderator sometime earlier about this particular bug: http://forums.pocket...ic,29501.0.html

He cannot reproduce it was his answer. Maybe it is time that somebody  notify him about this issue. I hope I will not stumble on it yet one more time...

Greenhorn, not BWS but BWP. I didn't use Big World Setup software, but using Big World Project (.bat install). I used Tactics mode installation.

Oh, I see, sorry. Anyway, I encountered this bug in all my different installations  up to date whenever I installed Additional shadow thieves content component. In the end I gave up on it. Really hope this issue is not present in BWS (cross fingers )...

Had this trouble years ago. If you disregard the install order for Quest Pack, you can install this particular component later. Personally i install a bunch of left over components just before i install Aurora's Shoes. I originally did this for the Shazzellim Quest, which i couldn't get to work, and i have never had any problems. Apparently, something was overwriting that component, and if you wait you can get around it.

 

If you go over to:

you can read the questions and answers that were discussed in 2005.

 

I hope this makes sense.

I fixed this for myself for future possible BWP installations. Just edited individual.bat.  I raised this topic just because game-breaking option is enabled by default in BWP.
