hallo everybody ,

i have a little problem with the dialog of gaelan bayle.


i got a quest from the shadowthief leader , to speak with gealan to find some missing fences.

the problem now is that gaelan everytime says the same thing to me ( nothing about that quest).


the dialog goes something like this :

u have been seeen with dangerous folks , and asking me if it is true.


no matter what my answer is i can pay him everytime after that dialog.


after the end of the dialog the same thing starts over again and i cant talk about the quest......


so because this is my first walkthrough in years i cant really remember if i need gaelan again for some main quest maybe ?



i already tried this :

CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("BodiWork","GLOBAL",0)


but it didnt help me.

if nothing works do i need to start a new game ???

Can you post the content of the file called WeiDU.log located in BG2 main folder. In [ spoiler ]spoiler tags[/ spoiler ] please (without the spaces) ?

First thought goes to Alternatives mod, maybe incompatibility with another mod. A similar issue has been brought up in that mod forum almost a year ago, with no answer.

To be fair I will also point fingers at 2 NPC mods that I know mess with Gaelan's dialog (not just adding interjections) : BTL and Chloe. :D But as requested your WeiDU.log is the best way to know what you have installed to start debugging the issue.

EDIT : NVM apparently Bioware guys couldn't spell Bodhi's name correctly in globals or it was really a last minute change and she was supposed to be called Bodi (as one of the wrong passwords for BG1 thief guild suggests).

Can you describe what you have done so far with the different paths to Brynnlaw? Do you have Saerileth / Chloe / Kiyone & Kova in your group? What have you done with each of these NPC quests?

when i played the game at some point in chapter 2 the vampires came and i agreed to visit them at the graveyard district at night. i actually met bodhi, but i refused to help her . then i played the game some weeks because i decided to explore the big world a little bit before paying off gaelan

ou mentioned some npcs but i had none of them at any point in my party.

my group is me , drizzt , biddekelorak, auren , mhoram and alora

Hope people don't mind if I bump this thread. I have the same dialogue problem described by -Sebi-. Gaelan says the same thing each time I see him ('you've been seen with dangerous folk'), and so I can't ask him about a missing fence.

 

Here's my Weidu log:

I have Alternatives installed. I'm hesitant to apply the console fixes described in the post directly above, because I don't know what they do or if they apply to my install. I couldn't find the thread where he discussed this with micbaldur.

 

Any help much appreciated.

For what it's worth, my global variables are currently:

 

B!Tourist = 1

B!Alternatives = 5

I also found the thread where micbaldur discussed this issue with -Sebi-.

 

From browsing the dialogue files using Near Infinity, it appears that the dialogue in question (in my case) is triggered by B!Alternatives = 5. This global relates to having spoken to Aster of Lathander as part of the Paladin route (but not having agreed to work for her). I don't know why the dialogue repeats itself, but lowering the global to 4 seems to do the trick (4 is where you received the message from Aster, but have yet to speak to her).
