Yeah, I was already over there. Nothing came up. I've read a lot about other bugs with that mod, so I might just uninstall it.

But in the meantime, how does one start that quest? :)

unfinished business and boo

I'm playing my primarily solo thief/wild mage. I dropped Yoshi as soon as I got out of the dungeon. I did the Baron Ployer quest and then dropped Jah. I have Unfinished Business installed, and I want to do the "Kidnapping of Boo" quest with Minsc so I can drop the two of them as well. However, I ...

CC Crash

Recently, for seemingly no reason, my game would crash every time I tried to enter to Copper Coronet. I tried reloading, changing areas, reinstalling patches. Finally, it cleared up when I cleaned everything out and reinstalled the whole lot (backing up my save, of course). It was a pain in the butt ...

I hear what you're saying. Basically, when it comes to NPCs, I want their personality but not their physical presence. I'm not too worried about gear, treasure, and power levels. I was soloing the C/M through BG1 before this. However, NPC interaction is pretty much not a factor in BG1. It's a much ...

soloing frustrations (and class questions)

I haven't played this game in a couple of years, and forgot a lot, so I'm trying to avoid spoilers up to and including Spellhold. I do remember some stuff, but I'd like to rediscover the rest. It's kind of a long post, but I'd appreciate input from others.

So, I've started the game as my semi-solo ...

I reinstalled the game, used the G3 fixpak instead, and everything seems to be working well. Thanks to everyone for the help. :)

What official patch did you use, the SoA patch, or the ToB patch?


I definitely used the ToB patch, and I did everything in that order. I'll have to uninstall and try it all again when I get back home, but I'm still open to other options.

And technique #6 doesn't just work with computer ...

NPCs are busy people

I did a search about this and there's nothing that's been said that I haven't already tried.

I just finished Irenicus' dungeon and am consistently getting the "so-and-so is too busy to talk right now" from a bunch of people (innkeepers, Ribald, etc.) I've tried this:

1) reloading
2) quitting and ...

Thanks for all the tips so far. I was figuring on getting the Staff of the Magi, but thought I should also get a sword and shield combo for variety. I know that because my obscene spellcasting power I should never end up in melee, but I probably will anyway, just because (with cleric buffs, haste ...

There are 2 catogories (helmets and armour) from wich you can carry over 1 item.
What do you mean? Is this the Helm of Balduran thing? I've heard about that, but I've noticed that it's still in the same spot if I import or not.

cleric/mage gear

I tried searches to see what people would gear up Aerie with, but I didn't come up with much. Granted, my character is a solo cleric/mage (well, wild mage), but I bet most of the same principles would apply.

Anyway, I'm trying to plan ahead as to how I want to gear up my cleric/mage (well, wild ...

search engine problem

I'm on the BG2 boards and I've been having a problem.

I tried using the search engine to find answers for some questions I have (rather than spamming the board with stuff that's probably been answered). However, sometimes I put terms into the search engine and all that happens is that I get ...

importing from BG1

I've been soloing a mage in BG1 with the intention of bringing him into BG2 and kitting him into a Wild Mage (still solo). However, I'm a good way through the game and thought it would be more interesting to play a cleric/mage that I would bring into BG2 and then SK it into a Cleric/Wild Mage ...

Wild mage solo and other BG questions

I posted something similar in the ToB forum, but it seems that hardly anyone visits there compared to here. Is there a reason for this? Don't most people who play BG2 have ToB?

I haven't played the BG games in quite a while and I thought that I'd take another run through. It's been long enough ...

various questions on soloing

Recently, I dusted off BG to take another run through. This time I figured I'd start with BG1 as a Fighter, which I would eventually develop into a Kensai/Mage for BG2. I had never played the K/M before and thought it would be fun to give it a go. I started up the game with my Fighter, and have made ...
