This was reported earlier. I searched and did not find a fix. Perhaps someone who is good at writing mods will use this information to fix the bugs.

I purchased the 7th level Teleport spell from Lady Yuth. Nalia memorized it.

I checked her mage book and Teleport is not in there in any levels. Nalia gained the 7th level spell Assimilation instead. I checked with ShadowKeeper (SK) and the Assimilation spell has the ID SPWI730. SK lists the Teleport spell ID as RZTELEP. I use SK and NearInfinity (NI) to search for the item with the ID SPWI730, but neither could locate it.

I used SK to give Nalia the Teleport spell (ID RZTELEP). She tries to memorize it, but cannot. You get the message it is already in her spell book.

After leaving with Meronia, Jaheira returned while I was in Bremem. I needed to do some CLUAConsole moves to make room for her in my party. She took a lot longer than the 8 hours I found using NI. I guess either a timing or area reference is messed up. An inconvenience, but the game goes on.

Either one on my party cast a spell, or my party got hit by a spell, but now I have short white streamers going up from all my party members all the time. I stripped the entire party of all items, but they do not go away. Again an inconvenience, but the game goes on.

Since Jaheira came back, I get this message in the box at the bottom of the screen: Jaheira- Spell Ineffective. It appears multiple times between the other normal messages. Again an inconvenience, but the game goes on.

There was another message about not being able to cast multiple copies of a spell sequencer spell. But that has now stopped. Again an inconvenience, but the game goes on.

At times, my lead character will switch weapons. That is I usually have him using the weapon in slot 1, but often he ends up using the much weaker weapon in slot 2. Again an inconvenience, but the game goes on.

There are other very minor bugs, but none that interfere with the game.

Can you tell what mod the Teleportation spell comes from... and/or just --change-log the spell.ids file, it's likely that the mod that adds the spell doesn't patch the file correctly and it then get's overwritten by the weidu's ADD_SPELL function by another mod.

 

The white stream... you can try and load a save made after you dropped the items in Shadowkeeper, and remove the affects the characters have on them. Do them all at first and see if it removes the effect, and if that helps, go investigate the exact affect(as in which it is and don't remove any of the others as most of them are beneficial ).


Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Hi The Imp: I did some searches on a backup of the installed mods. I keep this in case the installation process changes files. The search did not find "Teleport" or "SPWI730.ITM". I'll search again for other related words. The flickering white streamers have now disappeared from all but the lead character. So as long as the game is playable, I'll let it go. But if I get a break, I'll try what you suggested. Tom

Hi The Imp: I did some searches...

Well, there's every chance your search tool is faulty, or more that it doesn't give correct results cause it doesn't have the resources to do that. I am pointing you to this --change-log'ging which does, if you intend to use the archive in the post, it's an old one and when you extract it, make sure not to overwrite the weidu.exe provided with the one in the archive as it's old.
