So I picked it up from the chest and it's stuck in whoever picks it ups inventory, when you try to move it it says "this item cannot be removed", no matter who I pick it up with (even Xan). Is there any way around this, or something I need to do to fix it?

What version of BGT are you using and can you post your WieDU.log?

Confirmed bug. However, I'm a bit surprised to see that my BG: Original Saga also has an undroppable Moonblade. Can anyone confirm?

I'm guessing this means it's stuck in his inventory? :P

I'm using 5cd+ToSC, but only encounter this bug with BGT if that's any help

Well, since it is found in Mulahey's chest, it get stuck in the inventory of whoever picks it up.

I suppose you mean that when you played classic BG:TotSC the Moonblade was fine?

Yep, Xan was always my favourite, always got him when I played and never had any issues before

I've really no idea how it works in Original Saga\BGT(I use EasyTutu - and, yep, it works there), but here's one quick way to help you; for now, at least: install Xan BG2 NPC and get his blade via console:

CLUAConsole:CreateItem("O#XanMB")

You'll still have the old unremovable blade, but you'll be able to use Xan's moonblade, as well.

Also, check out Level 1 NPCs - this mod tweaks the blade, too.

If you want to remove the blade from your inventory until you find another solution just use shadowkeeper to edit your character end remove it.

I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood your post. If you install Xan BG2 NPC without "BG1-like flaming sword animation" component, the flaming version does not appear.

But, yes, it's a possibility, too - until the next version of 1PP gets released, you can install "BG1-like flaming sword animation" component from Xan BG2 NPC for your Tutu/BGT installs, I believe.

Well I used ShadowKeeper to remove it, and saw that there are three Moonblades in its items options, the first one worked, second one had vocalise and invisibility on it (worked also) and the third one was the offending unremovable, just thought i'd let you know incase anyone else comes across this.

An easy quide for a easy problem. Path is for standard game, so you might have to change it.
1 ) Get the ShadowKeeper.
2 ) Extract it with with WinRAR.
3 ) Start with the ShadowKeeper.exe .
4 ) Push Settings, where you find the Installation dirrectory tab. Put "C:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA" or something such. Push File, then Exit.
5 ) Restart the ShadowKeeper.exe .
6 ) Push File, Open Saved Game, select to name.
7 ) Push the Inventory tab.
8 ) Scroll down to the item, select it, and push Clear Item tab. -_-

Go to change the item and change the filter list to Daggers only, then it's under Moonblade and the first one should work

Well... Understandable and all, but it had almost nothing to do with what I am trying to do. I don't want to remove the blade, I want it to work.

You don't have Xan BG2 NPC installed. The unmodded game has only one Moonblade. :)

Is there any way to edit the item with DLTCEP or NI? I get Xan's moonblade out of inventory and in his hand via Shadow Keeper. Then his fist still shows and he has no weapon in his hand. Frustrating. This is with version 105a for me.

For the experts, go into NI and find SW1H13.ITM (I think this is the Moonblade, check to just make sure), and switch to the Edit tab. Find the Flags field and uncheck the Undroppable flag. Save the file, and load a saved game where you have not entered Mulahey's Den yet.

Thanks Ascension64!
I couldn't figure out how to find the undroppable flag in NI, but now I see it.
I did manage to cure the problem with some DLTCEP medicine. By opening same item, I looked for flags and the moveable tag was unchecked. By checking that box, Mr. Xan could wield his favorite sword and it could be removed from anyone's inventory, but not wielded by others of course. That fix even worked after defeating Mulahey and did not cause any unusual crashes later. I played for a few good hours with Xan since then, so it was a simpler way for me if anyne wants to use the DLTCEP route (remember when setting up DLTCEP make the read-only box unchecked).
I am playing from BG1 installation from CD's not original saga DVD's if that helps.
Thanks again
