When I import my save game from SoA I've found that Viconia doesn't whant to have romance with me. AFAIK in ToB romances are started anew. I don't remember what was with my romance with her in SoA, but Global "ViconiaRomance" is set to 3 in my SoA save and in ToB save. Please help!

Well it worked fine for me .. I was romancing with Viconia in SOA . I imported my Party to TOB and guess what she start to talk with Sarevok about his muscular body and how she wanted to have sex with him :mad: I felt betrayed and landed a fireball in the middle of them ;) Then in Saradush Tavern we recalled the old times ..

You can either use CLUAConsole, which requires you to add "Debug Mode=1" under [Program Options] in the Baldur.ini file. Or use [url="http://www.mud-master.com/shadowkeeper/"]Shadow Keeper[/url] to look at your savegame. Haven't got ToB yet so I'm not really sure what the problem it.

Hmmm...I don't want to annoy everybody here but I'd like those instructions too. I loaded a save game into ToB that slightly pre-dated my completion of SoA so as to alter the final spells that my sorcerer had at the end of SoA. I'm assuming the lovetalk for Viconia isn't at what it needs to be for the beginning of ToB. I've never really been able to change the romance values successfully using CluaConsole, although I've used it for other functions so I know my CluaConsole feature is working fine. Can you folks help me too?

I coppied the stuff below from the email I sent to Ill, they are the variables that are set when Viconia's romance is successfully completed in SoA.

The following can be found in the "Global Variables" section, when opened with Shadow Keeper:
- CheckViconiaMatch - 1
- ViconiaMatch - 1
- ViconiaRomanceActive - 2
- SleptViconia - 1
- ViconiaVampire - 5
- PhaereInnuendo - 3
- EndanderedLovedOne - 3

The following are found in the "Affects" section, make sure you selected Viconia - using the slider beneath the portrait:
- LoveTalk - 77
- TalkedYoc - 1
- ViconiaMad1 - 1
- ViconiaMad3 - 1

You can also set these using CLUAConsole commands; first you need to activate it - open Baldur.ini in the BG2 directory and add "Debug Mode=1" below [Program Options]. Now when you're in the game, press CTRL + SPACE, then type in the command.
To set Globals, type CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("[global name]","GLOBAL",[value]). To set Affects, type: CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("[affects name],"LOCALS",[value]), with your mouse over the person you want to set them for - in this case Viconia.

Hope this helps, good luck.

I'm noticing the same problems with Viconia, too. My guess is that they broke something in ToB. Here's how to use the CLUA codes:

Open your baldur.ini file in your BGII - SoA directory and add the following lines under Program Options:

Debug Mode=1
Cheats=1


Save and start the game. To bring up the console, press <crtl> <space>. To check LOVETALK, enter the following:

CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("LOVETALK","LOCALS")

while holding the mouse cursor over your romance's portrait. To check what stage of the romance you're in, enter:

CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("[name]Romance","GLOBAL")

where [name] is the name of your romance, eg: CLUAConsole:GetGlobal("ViconiaRomance","GLOBAL"). 1 = early stage, 2 = going strong, 3 = romance is over.
