Hi!

I've just started the game with Nathaniel for the third time, but I want to play on two installations on different computers. Holidays are coming, I'm returning to my home village... and you know... wink.gif
During my first experience with Nathaniel some time ago, I had to give up in ToB after reinstalling the game and finding out that his name changed to some random sentence, his dialogues were messed up and he went mute. I could only flirt with him, if I recall corectly. I was using Baldur's Gate Trilogy from the beginning and then changed it to a normal installation of SoA+ToB, so I thought that was the reason. I started all over some time later and it was all great and fun.
Now, however, when I'm copying my save from one BGT to another (same version, same mods, same order of install, different computers - that's all) it all happens once again - his name and sounds are messed up.
I rrreally don't want to leave him in the city for christmas, alone in the flat... can you think of anything that might help me? I encountered similar "bug" with BG1NPCproject NPCs, like Ajantis, but after saying something like "Your voice is strange" they are fixed in a few seconds. I'd be grateful for any help.

I absolutely and utterly adore this mod, by the way. wink.gif

Well, they only explanation is that they are not same... the best solution for this is the answer #8 here, copy the whole entire game folder from the old computer and use that in the new computer, and use the BGMain.exe to start the game...

I've just found another solution. A simpler one ;)
Well, I suppose I didn't explain it well enough, because it seems obvious now - I simply selected Nathaniel, pressed "K" and after a short "cutscene" his name and soundset were corrected. THAT's what I wanted. Anyway, thanks for the help ;)
