When I went to get Tashia, I found two of them there. I then realised that I had installed her twice. so if I was to uninstall Tashia, would that get rid of the one still in Trademeet, or would it also get the one in my party?

I think you should not uninstall the Tashia mod. Every dialogs, pictures etc... would go (there would be a solution to get Tashia back, but don't bother)

However, this sounds strange as normally, you can not 'install twice' a WeiDU mod : WeiDU is smart enough to detect your existing mod and to propose you to [R]einstall or [U]ninstall.

In fact, you can "smite" one of them if you want to have only one in the game but it is not necessary : BG2 will work well with 2 tashias (at least if they are not in your party at the same time). To do this, use the console : add a line to your baldur.ini (can't remember : CheatEnable=1 or something like this : it's in the readme of BG2) and then, within the game, type Ctrl+Space and issue the command : CLUAConsole:EnableCheatKeys(). Now, you can smite anyone with Ctrl+Y and your mouse over the bad guy/girl.

Well... I was having a problem with the game, so I uninstalled BG2, and I had already put the MODs on. (hmm... does this mean that there will be two Valens and two Solaufeins? (don't answer)) So what I do is reinstall everything, MODS and all, and the problems still there. So I downloaded the patch, and problem sorted (dunno what the problem was, it worked perfectly before).

Also, I don't like killing when they don't attack you... removes the fun from it, and also, I don't want to put the cheat code thing in, as I am one of those people who use what they have access to (in the way of cheats... I try not to, but if I know a cheat, and there's something I can't get past, I will use it, and won't be able to tell if anything is actually cha;llenging, or a pain in he ass!)

I had a similar problem with the Valen Mod, the talk with Bohdi would continue to loop and create multiple Valens.

Well what I was told was that i must have had BG2, Shadowkeeper or a similar program open when I was installing the valen mod.

What I had to do was uninstall the Valen mod and delete some .cre files from the override folder (you'd need to find out the specifics for tashia) and then re-install the valen mod.

It wasn't MOD related, that's something I am sure about, cos other programs have been going the same way, i.e. illegal messages all the frikkin' time.

I didn't say anything about cheating : it was just to solve your bug. Solving a bug is no cheating, it's only righteousness

Yeah, well still, once I enable the console, I probably won't disable it, and thus be using the cheats instead of using tactics to work my way through a battle.

That's up to you. I find having CLUA enabled helps me solve lots of problems. I have never used "ctrl + y" during a real battle.

Typically what I do is use the "ctrl + j" function to jump across maps I've already exposed. For instance once I've cleared the Druid's Grove map I *hate* walking through that big Z every time I go back. So I just "teleport" to where I need to go. I don't use it in combat or on maps where I haven't cleared everything. Basically it saves me time & keeps me from having to do boring stuff over & over.

I've use CLUA & SK to fix buggy romances. I never would have finished the Jahiera romance without them.

There's also the mega-key-combo-i-can't-remember that allows you to take anyone to your party : I like doing quests with rabbits and chickens in my party

ctrl-Q

I know too much about these cheats!

I was playing around with smiting in the irenicus dungeon a while back and got a little too over zealous and acidentally smited Imoen...the game reacts kinda funny to things that arent supposed to die, in Imoens case, she got hit with the damage like 5 times

[Rei_Janus]

I find the Console really helpfull... I can't count the number of times I have used it. For fixing things mostly...

I recall using the CreateItem command to give me an endless bag of holding on one instance where I solo'd a mage.. Sorry, but holding all those items with one char is way too hard... And like aforementioned above, I have used CNTRL+J on a number of occations where I needed to travel somewhere I have already been..... That's not always a good idea though, because certain trigger events only happen if you walk through certain areas..

Being able to set variables can help a lot too, in the case that someting doesn't happen that is, due to bugs or whatnot... just change variables.. Which can be used for fixing romance bugs too... As for Instant Kill button.. I rarely use it... The only time I ever do is if I just /CAN'T/ get past a certain enemy no matter how hard I try with a certain party, then I might use it.

I've also had times when my CD was ruined, or a certain area won't load properly, and yet you have to go forward... And example of that is the Planar Sphere.. Once I had a copy og BG2 where the AREA file was messed up for an area of the Sphere you had to go to.. so I used the teleport thingie to get me out of there...

That's about all...

Sorry, but holding all those items with one char is way too hard...

I wonder if you can have rabbits and chicken carry some objects. If it's true, then you can have a party composed of your PC and those creatures : kind of solo, and you're not cheating : no bag of holding to create until you find it .
<_< But you have to protect your chickens and rabbits : must be much more difficult (you can recreate some with limited wish)

If you could pick up the rabbits, etc. Infinite Item spaces, and you could use them as a container.
