In light of all the errors on other mods that I've gotten in BG2:SoA, I believe I have a reason to be afraid of the fact that due to a bug or something I may not be able to play ToB through with a successful Tashia Romance with my first time trying. So this is what I have to ask:

1. Which program should I get and use so I can constantly keep mark of wether the variables are in check or not.

2. Any nonspoil walkthroughs or suchlike that tell you how the romance is supposed to work, what dialogue options or plot choices etc could stop it?

3. Anything else that is useful for someone who does not like the idea of playing an emotionally involving rpg through numerous times for nothing?

Right now I'm trying to think what to do when my PC is neutral, and I've got Imoen, Tashia and Sarevok in my party. I already killed one of Gromnir's prisoners to get Sarevok remain in my party, but I understand there are bad sides to it as well.. since Tashia requires some sort of minimum reputation at least?
Also, I had my first dialogue with Tashia as I entered Saradush, but after that I've discussed with Sarevok twice, yet not Tashia. At which time intervals does she speak with me?
And, I can't flirt with her in ToB. I assume this is normal or..? Just that I would've liked that to remain as an option still.

Thanks for all the answers in advance.

Dialogue loop? Oh ok, so is this common or is it just a bug that appears with some people (which would, knowing my luck, include me)? Because I've really had my share of bugs like I said. So if this is really true, I'll skip BG right away and return to the bugfree world of Fallout 2.

1. Shadowkeeper works well

2. Can't help you there.

3. Kill everything in sight (kidding).


The only thing I can suggest is installing Tashia as the first WeiDU mod before all other WeiDU mods. This should prevent the 'loop' everyone mentions. It works form me.

The next time Tashia speaks to you in ToB, if I remember, is after you kick Yagashura's ass.

Well, good luck with that.

aye,i even installed tashia before freedoms reign&reign of virtue,i dont think those are weidus but it worked,no dialog loop.
aye the next time after the meeting with her fake mother (the ghost summoned by the wraith in front of nyalees temple) and talking about that with her is after you kill yaga shura and rest i believe,tell her you couldnt get any sleep too

Yes well I'd gotten to the "couldn't get any sleep either" part already as well. Same spot where you get to see the second room in the pocket dimention. Yaga Shura's battle was really buggy btw. Crashed 3 times during the battle.

Anyway, Tashia Romance is the last of the mods that I've installed. It's worked fine through SoA, as well as with ToB, so far (the problems I had were with other mods and inbuilt systems I was unaware of). Other mods include: Imoen Romance, Ascension, Expanded Thief Stronghold, Exp-Cap Remover, and Dungeon-Be-Gone (I can't stand playing the first dungeon). So should I really remove all of these and then re-install with Tashia first?

Can I just wait till I can see the loop and then do this, or is it too late by that time even if I did re-install Tashia as first. And if I need to remove BG2: ToB altogether, then will the savegame still work with the romance still ongoing if I then re-install Tashia?

That's your choice. Tashia is an earlier mod and isn't being updated anymore that I can see. Therefore, she is first in line.

From what I recall the 'loops' are at the hell fight with Irenicus and the Throne of Bhaal end battle. As far as reinstalling everything in different order and then using a previous save game, that could cause some funky looking dialog sometimes. Things like NPCs have weird names and dialog that appears is completely wrong. Stuff like that.

Well, good luck with that.
