Viconia Romance Problem

Post by Dunk »

Hi everyone. I searched for this but couldn't find a solution...

I have just killed Bhodi and retrieved her heart along with Viconia's body. I took the body and the heart to the temple ruins and placed them on the altar. Viconia reappeared but her base is green and neither my char (nor her) initiate any dialogue whatsoever. I've tried leaving them standing their for an age, resting, everything i can think of but she just stands their and I have no way to make her rejoin my group.

Any ideas?

Does nodoby have any ideas? It's not so much the "romance" thing that I'm bothered about I just need to get her back in my party. I've invested far too much time building this group up just to start someone off again. I presume If i were to just play on I could call her in via the pocket plane but would then have to do without her until i get there which would be bloody annoying.

Probably a stupid question, but if her base is green, isn't she already in your party?

Did you try spawning her via the Cluaconsole?

nafnuff - The base is green but her picture isn't on the panel. Therefore I cannot access her inventory or get her to leave the temple ruins.

AOL - would spawning her bring her back with her stats and experience as they were when she was taken from me?

Is there anyway not to not have Bodh kidnapp and turn her as I have a saved game from just before then?

I'm not sure if your Viconia is an instance of the class Viconia, or if the class itself is changed. All I can say is: try it

As for the savegame. I think you can just drop Viconia from your party, enter the graveyard district, watch the cutscene, leave and Viconia back, then continue on. iirc Jaheira's is the only romance that breaks by kicking her out of the party, but keep some saves ofc.

Or you might try editing Viconia's cre-file in ShadowKeeper. Select "Open CRE file...", open the file named Viconia something, then set the variable enemy/ally to "Neutral". If it's messed up, that is.

Okay. Just tried the drop her and go to the graveyard bit. Annoyingly when I went to pick her back up her base was green again and I couldn't initiate dialogue. Totally has me stumped now.

Ok. Thanks for the help guys but it looks like I'm officially stumped on this one.

Tried shadowkeeper and putting her at neutral but she remains green.

Tried spawning her which she does but she wont initiate dialogue. Unless there is another way to stop the vampiric touch quest from happening in the first place I'm done.

Thanks anyway.

You could try if it works with lower reputation.
Maybe killing her before entering the Graveyard and reviving her afterwards will work.
Breaking the romance with the clua console and enabling it afterwards is also an option worth trying.
You could also enable another romance, maybe Bodhi will kill him/her instead.

kmonster - cheers that worked with the kill and revive thing. Can't believe I didn't think of it sooner. It kept the romance in tact too.

Thanks everyone for the help on this. I was starting to get very frustrated there.

This is really a separate question, not an answer to the question posed, above. Please start a new thread, in that case. However...

This has been asked, and answered repeatedly, before. So rather than start a new thread, use our search function, since the site owner won't allow duplicative threads in the forum. (He says they slow it down.) Try searching on reputation.
