Help with Kogain- he leaves my party!

hi there...
i'm having a problem with kogain in my current game...
after about 16 days with my party, he decides that "im not going to find any caravans with u scum, im better off looking by myself" and leaves..
i've had him in other parties before and never had this problem! he just says "forget about my quest, ill join u guys" after 16 days...
my main char is chaotic neutral, everyone else is evil... the leader has 14 cha, and the reputation is 8... so none of that should be a problem...
has anyone had this problem? do u know how to fix it?
does kagain's caravan even exist? what area can i find it in if so?
thanks in advance

IIRC you have to go close to any of the caravans that lie spread around in the area just south of FAI..... then after he sees that all caravans are destroyed or something like that he decides to join you...... try reloading and see if he still leaves you....sometimes it seems as if it is random if you don't go to the caravans......

thanks i'll try that... the problem is i dont think i'll be able to reach it as unfortunately both my quick save and auto save are on like 15 days and 22 hours haha... i think i pretty much screwed it up, and kogain is soooo good in bg1, with the dex bracers and his massive hp and regen he's easily the best tank in the game
i'm thinking of picking up ajantis (+ dex bracers) or kivan/coran to replace kogain (i killed misnc) and then giving them the belt of alignment change (to fit into my evil party)... the problem is i have no idea where it is, can anyone help out?

It's not a belt, it's a helm and I'm pretty sure the only way to get it is to cheat it into the game (CLUA Console code 'HELM02').

The helm is not in the expansion pack either as far as I know, so you still wouldn't get it without cheating it in. I'm not even sure its part of the expansion. I think its just something the developers made but never placed in the original game.

The Helm of Opposite Alignment was part of the original game, though it was never implemented. The only way to get it is to cheat it in.

The helm of opposite alignment is in the game. You can only get it if you defeat the demonknight on the first floor of durlag's tower, when you take the tour from the guy in Ulgoth's Beard.
To defeat him, you have to keep him there. The only way to do that is ORS. When you enter, you talk to the tour guide 4 times. DK appears after the 4th time. Before you talk to him the 4th time, disarm your party, cast haste and then talk to the guy. As soon as DK appears, cast ORS then proceed to beat him unconscious. Cast dispel magic and arm one of your party with a sword and one whack kills him. You get great armor, the helm and a +1 large shield
