Bug!

Hi!

I decided to play BGII again from the start with TOB installed....I'm in chapter 3, and I've just been given the assingment to go and taki out Bodi. There should be a mage and a golem waiting for me infront of her hideout in under the graveyadd.......but they are NOT there! I can't get in! and yes, I have talked to the head Shadow Thief! Anyone had this problem....or know what to do about it?

 

Until I installed the official patch, I got all manner of strange buggy things happening...after the patch, everything seems to run fine.

 

umm, are you in the right place? you have to go down under the graveyard, past the spider nest. and then in the left of the screen the chap and his golem will be waiting

 

Yea.....I'm in the right place, I've finished BGII 2 times before. I have the BGII patch installed....should I install the Beta Patch for TOB as well? I was going to wait until the official patch came out.....is there a way to make the door open or the golem and the mage appear with ShadowKeeper?

 

Im on chapeter 3 right now waiting for night to fall for the mook thing. I have the offical patch installed i will keep you informed if i have the same problem.

are y'all talking about the official BGII patch, or the TOB Beta Patch?

 

Llandon, the only way you can try to resolve that is to uninstall the complete thing and then install ONLY BG2-SoA with official patch but without expansion.

Of course, you'll install ToB once when you are about to finish SoA. And why? ToB is full of bugs noone knows about yet. Especially us who don't have that expansion yet.

 

I have TOB installed and did not have that problem. The mage and golem were right where they were supposed to be. Try going back to a save game just befor getting the last quest from Aran.

 

Thanks for sugesting uninstall and reinstall....I hadn't thought of that! I'm gonna try a few other things first, but if all else fails, I'll try the uninstall. If anyone has any other suggestions please let me know!

Thanks again....I'm still having trouble with this! I tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Thanks for the link Kitara (I love DL by the way)......but it doesn't work! (the link that is). I emailed the owner of the web site that offers the fix, but I haven't heard back. If anyone else has any suggestions please let me know! THANKS AGAIN TO ALL OF THE KIND PEOPLE THAT HAVE TRIED TO HELP!

 

The more I think about this...the more I think that it might not be that the golem and magic user didn't show up..it may be something else....the big stone slab infront of the entrance is gone....my party is in a hallway flanked by staues, and at the end of the hall is a door flanked by 2 big (egyptian?) statues.....this is the door that cannot be opened! I can't pick, force, or knock it! I get message that my hands are shakeing too much to open the door! What the hell? I've finished this game two times already, and haven't had this problem! I can't figure it out!

 

Try this link instead: http://members.home.net/mrkevvy/SoAfix/FixedBG2BodhiLairInaccessible.zip

It works for me, and should help you. Alternatively, if that doens't work, you can go to the page with the list of fixes and find it there. That is here: http://members.home.net/mrkevvy/fixes.html

 

Thanks for the links Wildfire....I was able to download the file into my overide folder as instructed.....but it doesn't help

Any other advice....can anything be done using shadowkeeper? I haven't had much use for any kind of cheets/editors, but I am starting to get desperate.

 

I didn't realise that I was postingunder two different names...Solarus and Llandon. I hope that this didn't confuse any of y'all. I have 2 computers and I guess I registered with different names on them. I hope this isn't against the rules.

I still can't fix this problem, and I'm statring to get really depressed....does anyone else have any suggestions?

 

try using the teleport cheat, and teleport to the other side of the door. I'm not sure if triggers gets skipped this way, but it's worth a try

use the console, how to do it can be found here: http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/BG2/cheats.php

 

That's a great Idea! I'll try that one when I get home tonight! If anyone else has any ideas please let me know.

I posted my problem on another site, and got some advice about what was missing....it seems that the order of events that are supposed to occur are 1) mage and golem open stone doors 2) mage and golem go away 3) vampire appears, opens door and attacks. Eventhough the golem and MU never showed up, the stones have been moved, and I have access to the hallway, but the door is still locked. I need to find out why the vampire is not appearing. Is it possible that I somehow killed or trapped him? (I know that there are several named vampires that you see attacking shadowtheives in various parts of the city, maybe this is one of those vampres). Is there a cheat that allows you to open doors? Or triger events? Hopefuly the transport cheat will help me out...y'all keep your finers crossed! Thanks again for all of your help!

 

DAMN! I enabled the cheats and then jumped inside the Tomb....but it didn't work
I don't know what to do! Anymore suggestions? Does anyone know any sites that I can go to to search for fixes?

 

Ask Extremist for the code of the Mage (I dont have much insight to the more techie stuff, but Extremist is crawling through the engine all the time ), so you can create him from the console. I believe this will work as creating characters will initiate the first automatic dialogue that should appear as if you met him by normal means
