Help with a problem

Post by cwey »

I have a problem. A big one. Well I got caught thieving in the thieves guild and there's a grath there thats impossible to kill. And I have no saved game. Is there an editor that can edit that? Else I acn't continue with the game if I cannot meet up with Aran Lindvail.

grath uses a sword that does 1000 points of damage. He's also wearing a belt that will keep him from dying by never getting below 1 hp. The sword confirs 100% magic immunity.

The only way to kill him is with mind flayer int drain, which is hard to use. You're better off reloading.

How do you know so much about that grath?
Well since he's unkillable, I guess I will have to start over again *sigh*
There's no saved games :(

If you don't mind a bit of cheating, just Ctrl+Y him. You'll have to enable the cheat keys in order to do this (lotsa info on how to do that floats around this place).

Or Ctrl+Q him... :D

You cannot ctrl+y immortals, they just take the damage and in the case of ctrl+shift+y they just look like they got hit (albeit no blood)

ctrl+q is always nice though.

Try ctrl+q'ing Renal Bloodscalp, he's a pretty good character.

Play nice; no flames. Craig may use the English language in ways that lie aside the Geneva Convention, but he's always been courteous to other posters. :)

"Oxymoron"

two words used together which have, or seem to have, opposite meanings
That was no flame. ;)

What's all this talk about:

" grath uses a sword that does 1000 points of damage. He's also wearing a belt that will keep him from dying by never getting below 1 hp. The sword confirs 100% magic immunity. "

His equipment is: Short sword of Backstabbing, Night's Gift +5 and a Ring of Free Mobility. When I Ctrl+Qed him at least.

All the instant ranged kill is simply built in in the character as far as I know.

" Well I *cough* tried the crtl+y thingie earlier but it does not work. Did not kow abt crtl+q. so thnxs! "

Are you sure you've written Debug Mode=1 in the baldur.ini file?

That seems to point up a significant difference between Europeans and Americans. A European says: "I can't understand this, what's wrong with me?" An American says: "I can't understand this, what's wrong with him?"

I reckon that Stonehege was build by the contemporary equivalent of Microsoft, whereas Avebury was definitely an Apple circle.
