Hey there.)
This topic might seem a little stupid, but I really care about that...

Now, why I am writing this.
I have a problem with Nathaniel. Since my PC saved him from Bodhi (and I still didnīt sleep with him, because there wasnt a right lovetalk), firstly (and thatīs right) he doesnt want speak to me...then: my group is going to sleep and Nathaniel says me something about "feeling tained, avoiding me"...and when I can reply, thereīs just one option what to tell him, that I donīt really like...something like: "stop with that self-pitty"
...and AFTER THAT, theres the problem I mentioned above: Nathaniel "has nothing to say"...is he annoyed? Or is that a bug? I donīt like it, but after that these talks like "nathaniel is looking at you...ect ect" donīt stop...thats odd...logically, if he is annoyed, he doesnīt wish to speak to me, or heīs not annoyed, so he speaks to me every time I initiate talking to him...
Whatīs wrong?...If theres anything wrong...
I went through Nathaniels forum and learned, that Latimer should appear somewhere in the wild, whil the group is resting, which didnīt happened at all...

I am going to Sundanesselar now and my romance is ruined...
...can I fix it? Or it is lost and I have to play it from the beginning?
I am afraid, that if Iīll begin a new game, something goes wrong and it will be the same...

This mod is perfect and It is a pitty, that this romance in my game is damaged somehow...possibly by me, because I donīt know, whatīs about to happen (I am talking about Latimer, for example), I didnīt know, that I have to rest in wild, to meet him...and so on...

Could anybody give me an advice? Or just tell me, what went wrong?

Oh dear. Can you check your NathRomanceActive variable?

You don't actually need to rest in the wild to get Latimer to appear, but because he hasn't shown up it must have screwed up your romance some.

My NATHROMANCEACTIV is 2, thatīs ok...the only idea I have is that Iīve been playing this game for 54 days (in the game, of course:))...isnīt it a short time for that romance? I use CLUAConsole, but no cheats...CLUAConsole helps me to have Nathaniel in the game, if I donīt use it, Nathaniel stutters...

I have to say, that I didnīt install G3 Fixpack, because if I do, my game gets broke and no Nathaniel appears.

Should I reinstall the whole BG2 game, to avoid, that next time happens the same thing?

I donīt know, if it helps to know, but I have installed the Luxleys mod...but I think, itīs comptible with Nathaniel...

Can you post your Weidu log? I guess it's always best to do a clean install to be on the safe side. Don't forget the Bioware patch too. Nathaniel gave me no problems with the G3 Fixpack, and the romance should run fine with the Luxleys, as long as the PC doesn't get too frisky with Sebastian. I think your use of the console to tweak things around may inadvertently have messed up something somewhere in there.

From the Terchnical Readme - Nathaniel also requires installation of the G3 BG2 Fixpack, so install the Fixpack before installing Nathaniel.

I did these things...I installed the game, then bioware patch, then fixpack and after that I insalled mods Nath and Luxleys...and Nathaniel didnt appear, neither the Luxleys...there is my Weidu.log from current game, where is no fixpack.

I tried both - install fixpack, not install fixpack.
I installed it: no Nathaniel, Luxleys...
I didnīt install it: both mods seem fine, but then there are these problems I wrote above in my first post :crying:

Okay. I got a clean install, used the official patch, then the G3 fix patch, then installed the Luxleys (v1.1), then Nathaniel (v4.2).

As soon as I could, I went to the Docks, and as I went down the stairs, Nathaniel came up to me. I'm a ranger in this game. What class are you?

BTW During the Luxley install I got the message That Nathaniel was not installed, and a file was skipped. It might be better to install Nathaniel first.

Your Weidu log looks ok for the install.

Your current Weidu doesn't indicate that the Fixpack is installed though. You're sure you've got the right patch installed in the right order? It should be SoA - ToB - ToB patch 26498 - Fixpack, then Nathaniel and Luxleys.

my class is ranger-archer...

well, I will try it once more, but I did it everything in the right order...
Could you give me the download link for that fixpack, please? I have suspicion, that the fixpack is wrong.
which one from these I have to install? http://www.gibberlin...net/bg2fixpack/
or are all the same? I have this one: BG2_Fixpack-v8.exe, it has 2,8 mb
and which components should I install?
Thanks in advance;)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so I reinstalled it once more...and it looks good:) even with fixpack...I really donīt know, why there was a problem before...
maybe just the evil constalation of the stars?:D

Thank you, guys :cheers:
