romance global settings.....

average joe · Post by **average joe** » Sun Jul 29, 2001 3:31 pm

so, i checked the settings on mine and jaheira's romance, cuz she'd been quiet for a noticeable period of time. it said 3@#$%$. does 3 mean the romance is over? if so, that sux considering i didn't do anything to turn her away, although she always did seem the moody type.

Yes, when JaheiraRomanceActive is set to 3, her romance is over. Was she imprisoned/petrified/killed at any time? Any of these terminate the romance.

no....i once responded to a conversation somewhere along the lines of, "don't worry, my own mistakes seem to have trouble killing me, it'll be alright."

she said, "i don't think you've ever tried this hard"

no more since....i didn't think my response was that big a deal. of course my game is jacked anyways considering i didn't get teleported to solar after beating balthazar.....thereby leaving me stuck. i may just have to play the whole expansion again....i have a save right before the first battle.

I think I had this conversation too and answered the same way, but the romance continued...

Well the next romance interaction is in real-time... so wait a bit and if your sure it was a bug set the JaheiraRomance to 65 or something using shadow keeper....

This "JaheiraRomanceActive" information, where can I find it ? Is it in some kind of file within the game's directory, cause I think my romance with Jaheira in ToB is over ...
I just wanna make sure, because it has been quite some time since she last talked to me.

you've got to enable cheats first off. go to you BG2 directory and open up the baldur.ini file. under the heading GAME OPTIONS you must then type "cheats=1" you can now access the CLUAConsole by pressing ctrl+spacebar. You must then type

CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("JaheiraRomance","Global")

A 1$^&^$& i believe means the romance has not begun. A 2#$!^@ means the romance is underway. A 3!#$!% means the romance is concluded.

don't forget to hit enter after typing the command

Tnx dude

I'll let you know what I find ...

nexus25 · Post by **nexus25** » Mon Jul 30, 2001 11:40 am

This is what appeared in the console
>
JAHEIRAROMANCE GLOBAL set to 4504409

No other text was shown besides this line.
What does that number mean anyway ?

Sojourner · Post by **Sojourner** » Mon Jul 30, 2001 1:58 pm

The JaheiraRomance variable is the timer for Jaheira's romance - it lets the game know when to kick off the next event. JaheiraRomanceActive is the variable which controls which stage of the romance you're in: 1=starting, 2=going well, 3=over.

Yes, but that still doesn't explain why this number (4504409) appeared after typing
-- CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("JaheiraRomance","Global") --
in the console, instead of the romance status (1, 2 or 3)

MOD : Maybe it does, I'll go check it out now.

MOD 2 : Nope, didn't work

As Sojourner pointed out the JaheiraRomance global is the timer, so you need to check the JaheiraRomanceActive global, which mean changing the command to: CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("JaheiraRomanceActive","GLOBAL")

Already tried that and it didn't work.
That's why I added the 2 "MOD's" in my previous post.
At the first MOD, i tried what Sojourner said (after reading his message again) and MOD2 was just for saying that it didn't work.
The only thing that appeared in my console was "JaheiraRomanceActive set to 2" or something like that.
Are you sure the cheats have to be enabled (cheats=1) ?

That's means your romance is going strong. Where are you game-wise? If you've reached the ToB part, there aren't that many romance dialogs.

I'm near Abazigal's lair now.
The last thing Jaheira said to me was :
**
J : Make sure not to become a god ...
PC : Don't worry, I'll still be here tomorrow
J : Tomorrow, that's just one day, think about the rest, please think about the rest ...
**
I guess that was it, but after that she hasn't spoken to me anymore, so I'm not so sure about the romance still "going strong"

But who cares anyway ?
Abazigal awaits ...
Thanks for your help.

"...Tomorrow... one day... What of the rest? Please, think about the rest." - Sad to say, that's the next-to-the-last romance dialog. When I played a game romancing Jaheira, I didn't get the last dialog until near the end.

Have I gone through all this trouble just for a few lines from Jaheira ?
I had to play SoA all over again because she got petrified in the Beholder Dungeon in the Underdark ...
*sigh*
Quite frustrating ...

average joe · Post by **average joe** » Tue Jul 31, 2001 2:17 pm

yes, i see the information i gave was a bit screwy. terribly sorry....

No problem dude.
After all, it ain't your fault that BioWare inserted so little Jaheira Romance Dialogue in Throne of Bhaal ...
< "So little" is that correct English, by the way ? >
But as long as it keeps going on, it's fine with me
