I'm positive that the problem doesn't have anything to do with alignment...the first time it happened, my party alignment was chaotic evil, and all five of my characters were also chaotic evil...didn't have any NPCs with me either. Thanks for the spellcaster level tip, though...I didn't even think ...

Same thing has happened to me. If you have a scroll or wand of identify and use it while in the looting screen, you can identify and unlimited number of times for 100gp each.
Oh yeah, to make the screen go away, all you have to do is click on the body or chest to loot it again, then exit the screen ...

Dominate Person (or animal) should give you the effect that you want. I tried using suggestion and charm a couple of times, but the monster/animal would never stay in the party, even after levelling up, killing, and reviving it.
P.S. is there a way to make NPCs from things that don't qualify as ...

Why doesn't the Balor stay?

Whenever I summon a Balor with the orb of golden death or the fire node gem, he just leaves on the next turn. The other demons don't do this. Does anybody else have this problem or know how to fix it?

Not only do they not fight if they're not close enough, the Balor will NEVER fight (at least it hasn't for me). He usually just leaves on the turn after I summon him.

Yep, the same thing happened to me once, with the earth temple priest. Most of the time he just chills out with his priest and bugbear friends in the room that you normally find him in, but sometimes (why?) he likes to hang around in the empty room. The bug where you can just walk right through ...

no solution

The magically held doors can't be opened at all. I remember two sets of magically held doors...one in the earth temple and one in the air temple. You can check out what's beyond the doors by using dimension door, but it's pointless. The room on the other side of the doors in the earth ...

another solution

I think you can use the spell soften earth and stone on them to weaken their armor...there's still that nasty spell resistance problem, though. As I said earlier, cone of cold is by far the easiest way to kill them. Chain lightning, call lightning storm, call lightning, and ...

that's weird

That is officially weird. I've never even seen a failure message like that one. There's 1 guaranteed (probably) solution, though, and a 2nd that may or may not be helpfull.
1. Use the POTION of heal (it's yellow, and you find it in the same bookshelf as the heal scroll) instead of ...

More Animal NPCs

I managed to trick a giant crayfish into being an NPC. Just follow the directions that Mulligan already posted for creating animal NPCs. If you don't want to search through the thread, here it is: cast dominate animal on your target. When combat is over, click the levelup tab in ...

The easiet way to kill them is with cone of cold. Chain lightning works 2nd best.

solution

This is a bit extreme, but it will definitely get your character uncharmed. Kill your charmed character and then use a raise dead spell or scroll on them. Since your charmed character is your cleric, you might have some trouble with this...but it will definitely fix the problem.

solution

There's a couple ways you can fix this problem.
1. Before you recruit Furnok, talk to the innkeeper. He will let you stay at the inn for free if you catch Furnok cheating. Now go talk to Furnok, and play cards or dice with him until you catch him cheating. Talk to the innkeeper again for ...

try this

Here's another thing to try. It should let you determine if it's an actual bug in the programming, or just lousy controls.
1. knock troll unconscious in combat as normal
2. have the character that you want to kill the troll attempt to loot the troll
3. if it's one of the 3 or 4 trolls in ...
