    Sorry again for the confusion on screennames Blackthorn....I'll try and remember, but the problem is that I have 2 different computers (wk and Home) and since it's automatic I tend to forget.

    Lokken....Who is Extremeist, and how to I contact him? Thanks for the information, I hope that he can help me. Anyone else?

    boy, you surely must be new here if you dont know who he is :) Extremist seems to know every tiny thing about this game, and if not, he seems to able to find it. But who he is, well, if you look at the 6th reply from the top I tihnk you'll know ;)

    [​IMG] First let me clear something:
    If you want an answer from me, DO NOT mention :-X util in your thread!
    Pal, who told you or suggested you to use that crap util? :mad: :mad:

    Tell me, so I can bust his ass! *glower*

    And I'm really surprised that Lokken suggested me - he does know for all my thoughts about :-X util.
    So, first of all, uninstall :-X util, that bug you are forced into was probably inflicted by it.

    --------------------------------------

    1. Enable the console (instructions are in "Power Users.txt" file in BG2 main filder), start the game and go to Graveyard District - DO NOT enter catacombs yet!

    2. Open console with CTRL+SPACE and type this command:
    CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("AranJob","GLOBAL",3)

    3. Now type this command:
    CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("FindLassal","AR0801",0)

    4. After you typed CORRECTLY both commands and confirmed them with <ENTER>, climb down to the catacombs...

    [​IMG] sorry Extremist, but he didn't say he actually had the utility, so I thought redemption was still at hand ;)

    or else because my memory only last 4-5 posts

    Thanks for the suggestions Extremist! I hope that it works. I will be out of town tonight, but will attempt this fix when I come back tomorow afternoon.

    I am a little confused about your mention of the ":-X util." Is that what I downloaded off of Baulderdash? IF so don't worry...I have removed all of those "fixes" and reinstalled BGII WITHOUT the patch as of right now (if I should install the patch before proceding please let me know). They didn't cause the bug though, I didn't even know they existed until after I ran into this little problem....as a matter of fact I had't used any utilities or cheets at all until i got stuck! If you are talking about someting else please let me know.

    I am very excited about trying your fix, and have high hopes that it will succeed. Thank you again for your suggestions, and I will keep you informed on my progress when I return home tomorrow afternoon. THANKS AGAIN TO ALL OF YOU FOR TRYING TO HELP ME!

    Okay, Extremist, I'll bite. (-: Why do you hate Shadowkeeper so much that you get mad at other people who use it?

    I mean, it can be used to cheat, of course, but you can do that with the console too...

    Ahhhh....he was talking about Shadow Ke...oops, I almost said it! OK. I understand now. No, I didn't even download that program until after I experienced the game problem, and then just to see if there was anything in there that could help me. There wasn't. I really don't see the point in cheeting games like BG and BGII....although I did remove the exp cap in IWD when I played it solo...before HOW came out.

    I've got to drive to Charleston for a party tonight, but I'll try the solutions tomorrow afternoon...I'm so excited! I really hope it works, b/c this is the best character (stat and equip) that I have played so far. I would hate to loose him, or start over from the begining of SOA. Thanks again everyone! I'll let y'all know if it worked tomorrow afteroon!

    Llandon, I just spot you on Boo's spyeye...

    So, is it working?

    [Edit]

    Ok, I saw you put it as another topic, so you don't have to answer it in here too.
    Extremist out.

    I can't post a personal msg on the board, and I don't know how to contact you :(

    I wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your help. I owe you one!

    The bug fix you gave me did NOT, however, work exactly the way you told me. After two unsuccessful attempts at trying your fix, I decided to try a different approach. I went down into the catacombs, into the very hallway itself. Then I entered your "FindLassel" command and BOOM! The event triggered!

    Thanks again Extremist!

    Jay

    PS It's nice to see someone else who likes to play an Elf F/M/T. How will 3ed D&D effect this class btw?
