After stealing the necklace and talking with Mae'Var he tells me to talk to Edwin. I go to the third floor and talk to Edwin. He tells me to call him sir in a short dialog and then he won't talk to me. I can't get the next task. It I try Rayic's house it is locked and I can't get in. Does anybody know how to console in the dialoge with Edwin so I can continue?

If you have a save before you stole the necklace you can ask the priestess for it instead of stealing it. That dialogue chain sets the variables correctly. Otherwise look in Edwins and Maevars dialogue files to see what var is set incorrectly.

I actually tried that. I asked the priestess for the necklase, gave it to Mae'Var and then went to talk to Edwin. Same problem. Mae'Var variable MAEVARWORK setting (4) appears to be correct. If set to 3 then he is asking for the necklace. If set to 5 then he appears that he gave me the last task. Obviously some trigger that tells Edwin it is OK to give me the 1st task is not working.
I can look in the dialoge string for Edwin, but how do I trigger it?

Checking the dialog: Edwin actually says the right thing. The issue is that the replies are not showing up
From Edit Dialog (Edwin) top Level #0 (order 12) Greetings, I am Edwin.....
Four replies should show up. Replies 0, 1, 2 are for roleplaying. Reply 3 is to ask for the quest. How can I trigger these replies?

Checking the dialog I saw a condition for Minsc. I hadn't brought him into the room. If I bring him into the room then the reply shows up. Replies 1 and 3 work. Reply 0 causes it to stop again. Reply 2 either causes Edwin to go hostile or doesn't work based on my replies. Weird. I will just go with Minsc and #3 and not try to figure out the but. Thanks for the help. your reply triggered me to look in the diagog. Thanks again!

Have you installed the mod "QuestPack"? I think it has a broken component that causes something like this.

Yes I have the Quest Pack installed, but the BWP was not supposed to install the component that causes the problems. I manually changed the value of the flag from 1 to 2 (don't know what 2 does) and then the thieves didn't go hostile (and the game didn't automatically end). I was able to kill Mae'Var and it appears the game is back on track. Will just need to monitor...don't really want to start over again.
