I'm at the end of chapter 4 and about to kick Irenicus' ass for the very first time (in the asylum), but every time I defeat him, Tiax (the red-dressed gnome who seeks world domination) shows up and causes an empty dialogue sequence to pop-up on my screen. This is impossible to shut down and thus I get stuck with the empty dialogue sequence. I tried to enable cheats and kill him with ctrl-y before he could get a chance to speak to me, but then Saemon wouldn't appear to talk to me afterwards...
I could just kill Tiax with cheats and then teleport my party into the room with the portal to the underdark. but I really don't want to miss out on the Sahuagin city... Anybody know a better way out of this?
