Also, I've finally uninstalled Under-represented Items. I really like the items, but then my game begins to shut down every time I try to leave one area and go to another and an encounter occurs. I just begin the encounter and without fail my game always shuts down with a "windows has encountered a problem and needs to close" or some such and do I want a stupid report. I uninstalled/reinstalled everything else and no problems. Does anyone else have Under-rep items and is it working?

I don't think your problem with Underrep Items is caused by Eddie. I have them both installed and they work perfectly together.

[Minarvia]

Hmmm...thanks, RavenBlack. I guess I'll just live without Under-rep, then. I'm glad to know that Eddie is apparantly not the problem.

Edwin and my CG Heartwarder of Sune PC have hit it off very well, so Divine Remix can be added to the compatible list.

Thanks, I'll make sure to do that!

I am currently playing the mod with the Quest Pack installed, minus the "additional shadow thieves content" component, and it's working a charm. I've gotten up to the encounter with the two new NPCs with voices and portraits (to keep things spoilerfree) with no problems whatsoever.

As I suspected, it seems that only the shadow thieves component will cause conflicts with the Edwin mod, and the rest can be enjoyed with no trouble. Which is good, because I like the quest pack.

P.S. this is the funniest mod I've played so far, yet manages to accomplish this without sacrificing characterisation and emotional involvement. Full thumbs up!

Oh maaaan. And that's exactly the part I wanted to play.

Thanks Iguana! I'll add your findings to the sticky post.

Can somebody clarify to me why the Shadow Thieves component doesn't work?

[Kulyok]

I think I can. Perhaps a slight misunderstanding took place here, as well.

1) Edwin romance and all Quest Pack components are technically compatible. Fully tested.

2) Edwin romance script works like this: romance will start then and only then when you kill Maevar with Edwin in your party. So, if the player have installed Shadow Thieves component of D0 Quest Pack and followed this route, she cannot initiate a romance with Edwin. Which is what she has been warned about in Edwin Romance readme.

So, actually, I do not see any incompatibility issues here.

[SimDing0]

Okay, thanks. Not neccessarily true anyway. You can still kill Mae'Var if you take the alternative route, and assuming Edwin Romance simply uses a Dead() check, everything will work fine.

Either way, I agree that this is not an incompatibility.

I see, then perhaps I should edit the post again. Not having played Quest Packs myself I didn't know exactly what the component did. I'll try to clarify things further.

Can one of the Edwin Romance authors confirm if a 'Dead() check' is used?

I'm not too familiar with the different routes available in Quest Pack, so would like to know what sort of action (or perhaps inaction) I'll need to carry out in order to play Edwin Romance.

Or perhaps it would be simpler if someone could say something like 'You'll be able to do the Edwin Romance provided you avoid doing X'. At least that way I'll know what to avoid doing if I want to do the Edwin Romance in my current game.

Bursk, I tried to dig out the answer for you. Sadly I am a mere writer, and had the help of people more talented than I when it came to programming. As far as I can tell the answer to your question is 'yes', but that is the best answer I can give you.

[Bursk]

Thanks for the answer, Laufey.

As of v2.08 (currently in beta), Edwin Romance is also compatible with Imoen4Ever.

[zelazko]

Version 2.0.10 and higher provides the possibility to play Edwin Romance in Multi-Romance mode: Via Cheats, set the variable "EdwinIgnoreRomances" to "1" to enable Multi-Romance mode:

CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("EdwinIgnoreRomances","GLOBAL",1)

If set, Edwin Romance will ignore all other romances and will also ignored by other romances (as far as the checks are contained within the Edwin Romance Mod). This goes for the original romances as well as considered mod NPC romances. The cheat has to be set before any of the romances turn their status to committed.

Mod romances considered so far are the following. Let us know if there is more:

• Fade
• Adrian
• Ajantis BGII
• Angelo
• Aran Whitehand
• Chloe
• Gavin BGII
• Imoen Romance
• Kelsey
• Sarah
• Sirene BGII
• Tsujatha
• Valygar (Corthala Romantique)
• Verr'Sza BGII
• Weimer's Solaufein
• Xan BGII

Do I have to install Edwin Romance after those mods for Edwin romance to consider them?

[jastey]

The order of install is of no influence in this case.
