Hello modders and players. My main purpose of this post is to discuss minor problems that have occurred in my 2nd install of NeJ2+TS-BP+TDD+SoS and BP177 to top it all off.
First, as mentioned in this post

Jaheira and Harpers Incorporated

, Jaheira quests/romance seem to stall never to be completed without a real headache tampering with the Globals, spawning and forcing lovetalks.
Second, Nalia's quests halt as well. Never really spawning the messenger for the funeral and Isaea's spawning didn't happen.
Third, Anomen's messenger does not summon him for his test.
Fourth, when in Athkatla (Gov dist.) with Cernd, his messenger does not appear.

My only concern is that they are bug related and become more severe throughout play. Because the events or spawnings don't happen, will the game play become slower, stutter often or CTD?

With that out of the way, regardless of these minor bits I think the game play is extremely fun. Loads of good content and I am really looking at the new quests and NPC's (although I have to mix in some main game NPC's). Just concerned about the probability of conflicts as in the stutter bug with dialogs not being triggered.
Thanks all,
Hoppy :cheers:

edit...

It is very strange that so many of the dialogue or triggers do not work. I fear that you will see more of it.

I notice the ?????? in your log. This means that those mods are not installed, or not installed correctly. Did you remove them?

Just a question, not addressing your problems: is there a special reason why you're using NeJ4.2 and v6.02? Because if you are using Baldurdash-Weidu, you can use the newest version of NeJ, which will work with BPv177 I think, although I may be incorrect.

no idea why there are ???? next to the installs of TDD and SoS. I am playing through and no real complications. The character kits are in the game. I have done 75% of the TDD quests up until main Riativin quest and everything completed. All of the items are there from Bernard so it looks OK. I thought it was weird too but I am not reinstalling now. As far as NeJ2, the 4.2 was the most current version compatible with BP. The only problem that gets annoying is flawless crash to desktop going to Forest of Tethyr, Small Teeth Pass and one other one from chapter 6. These areas are accessible on the map but I am thinking because I had Yochimo in my party that it was his fault.
Thanx,
Hoppy

Worldmap v6 is NOT compatible with Baldurdash. You should have BG2 Fixpack latest version installed. This is the reason for your CTD's going to AR1600, AR1700, AR2500 & AR2600.

Thanks guys! Yup that will do it. I was following this this for help installing with NeJ2. I think that the CTD's are avoidable by CLUA there. I am not really disappointed because I still like the mod combo. My main PC started out at level 7 (import from BG1) and I am just setting foot in Brynnlaw at level 21! I haven't even finished TDD quests or started Soubar's stuff. In the future, will the fixpack v.4 eradicate the need for baldurdash? I know that Bdash 1.6.3 is needed for NeJ2 (6.9.1) and TS 6.11 to play their full versions together. The full 6.9.1 of NeJ2 is not compatible or supported with the big "modsters" so the next time I will install NeJ and TS buy themselves to get their full flavor. Maybe it's high time to rack my brain on that multi install and figure out how to do that. Maybe with a mega baby I will also do one big mod by itself-like Check the Bodies and possibly write a walkthrough :unsure: if someone else isn't working on it.
Cheers,
Hoppy
