The 2da files triggering the display of the NPC stories/bios at the end of ToB are constructed like this

 

2DA V1.0
*NIMOENL  //In this special case, the reference to the Large portrait BMP file to be used (instead of MOS file name used normally in text screens)
                        0           1
SWITCH                  DEFAULT     DEFAULT
DEFAULT                 71020       324750  //The string text to be displayed

 

All other text screens make a direct reference to the mos file that is used while those endscreens use a template to which the portrait is added with *BMPFile.

 

Does anyone know what is the MOS file into which the portrait and text are inserted?

The relevant MOS file should be NPCCHAP.MOS. The relevant code in UI.MENU starts with the name 'EPILOGUE' (in Enhanced Edition games).

Thanks a lot - this is the one.

 

Also your hint to UI.Menu may be a hint why it causes issues in EET (maybe).
