Your problem might be that you have ToB installed.

ToB actually seemed to make the game buggier to me.

Go [url="http://www.gamebanshee.com/baldursgateii/downloads.php"]here[/url], and download the Bonus Merchants thing again. Put the file into the Override folder of BG2 and it should be working. Also, what files did you removed from the Override directory?

Hmmm...the official patch for TOB< full eng. inludes the bcs files for the bonus merchants already included, so you would not need to install the bonus merchants patch. so you installed the latest version of the SOA patch?


I've installed full soa, full eng patch, and even the full balderdash patch and patched the jaheria romance bug patches without problems. Could you have patched with the TOB patch instead of the SOA patch? I'd copy out the saved games to another location and possibly think about uninstalling and reinstalling. Make sure you've downloaded the SOA patch instead of the TOB patch. Thats all I can think of. The SOA patches, unless you've installed the bonus shop keeper in the wrong directory, are quite stable and work fine.

Oh, you shouldn't have done that. When you first install the game - I'm not sure if this depend on what type of installation you used, I've always used Full Install - there are some files that are already added in the Override folder. So removing them might be reason why you're having problems with the game. Seem the only thing you can do is reinstall.

Exactly - I've always seen items placed in the override directory regardless of the install type or patches (last minute changes from the programmers, perhaps?), so deleting everything in the override directory will remove something critical. I recommend re-installing, too

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.
