Why thank you Shadowhawke.  Plot twists are my specialty. My brother says I have way too much time to think.

Actually I did want the portrait change to be in game as part of a mod.  Thank you both anyway and I have it all figured out now.

Thanks CamDawg but I found the problem with my old code and fixed it.  It installs now.  Thanks.

Thank you CamDawg, the error is gone.  Unfortunately I have another one.  Please excuse my stupidity it's probably something extremely simple but I want to make one of my characters interject the other one, and since they'll always be together I didn't bother using InParty checks but that's not the problem.  I used EXTERN in the command but now it's not reading the label when I want the text ot go back to the original speaker.

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN S1
SAY ~blah~
IF ~~ THEN EXTERN ISAJ S2
END

APPEND ISAJ
IF ~~ THEN BEGIN S2
SAY ~blah~
IF ~~ THEN EXTERN TIVA S3
END
END

This is what I have.  The APPEND is at the end of the file so I can't figure out what's wrong.  Again, sorry for being a nuisance.

Andyr, again thank you.  I had tried the InParty check before and it wasn't working so I changed it all together.  And I found the magic license thing.  Now I'm attempting to install the mod but it says that one of the files ******J isn't in the chitin.key so it won't compile one of my .d files and that just stops the whole thing.  What I'm trying to do in the dialogue is have interaction between my two characters and the PC but EXTERN doesn't seem to be working. Is this just reserved for the banter files? If it's not I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong and if it is I'm open to suggestions on how to rearrange my text.
