Some of the NPCs have less dialogue then others most of these are NPCs that are in Other Mods eg Xan Ajantis , Kivian,etc. However there is quiet a lot of banters and Interjections has well ha quests for the NPCs . if you load all the content you can also load the internal crossmod content too, I think there will be some stuff for the crossmod banter pac too when the new version come out . so it well its well worth having a go

Btw, if I for example kill Xzar in BG1, will he still appear in BG2?

In both cases(mods), there's going to be Xzar in BG2, just like there will be at least a reference without either mod. As there will be all the other NPCs too in BG2 unless they are dead in your party during the transition part of BGT.

I would go with the Smiling Imps NPCs... as the BG2Tweaks characters are silent party member... well expect their command responses.

this is interesting. So, BG2 never checked your BG1 save to see if some npc's have been killed in the first game to remove them from the bg2 world?

 

Argh, this will be hard to rp!

Hello Smiling Imp.

 

It's that time again that i get to play your great mod.

 

Some items in Kagain's Korner aren't flagged as droppable like they probably should. Dreamwrought Battle Armor (DEPO34.ITM), Woundhealer (DEPO240.ITM), Armor of the Sphinx (DEPO292.ITM) and Naj's Light Plate (DEPO295.ITM).

 

Looking forward to find out what you have added to this mod of yours.

I wonder if thats the reason why I get CTD with the newest version of Kagain

Yeah, but knowing that even ten years after the release of BG2, the Mass Effect 2 had real problems of reading the ME1 save data, tells you that it takes some effort to include features such as this. And the ME games were known for their build in game decisions that would impact the later games.

DEPO34.ITM ... DE.. DE...

Hmm, can you verify Smiling Imp that you are the valid prefix holder for the DE ... making you -Deano , and hopefully you won't have any mods that you have DEFxxxx.<postfix> in them... not that I really care.

@Smiling Imp does this mod works with BG2EE? I find quite a few NPC's from BG1 interesting and would love to carry their quests in SoA, but I play solely EE these days (or rather I'm slowly preparing to a major playthrough).

Probably not. There are tutorials online on how to convert it and for a while I thought about creating an EE version, but I wouldn't be able to test it myself b/c I'm using an ancient computer that won't run the new versions of the game.  

 

Plus even if I fixed the WEIDU problems, from what I hear the item descriptions and quest logs would still be messed up. Considered that, I have decided to put out what projects I had in the works, like the Smiling Imp Cross Banter Mod, and retire from active BG modding. Thanks to everyone that gave the mod a chance and happy gaming.

Sad news that you are planning to retire.

 

I found minor problem more info here. Hopely Lollorian fixes it to BWP Fix Pack now that you retire.

 

Thanks for the great mod and best wishes what ever you are doing in future.

Well, I'm back and since I am I went ahead and decided to fix these problems. They will be included in the next update. If anyone has other issues they have found, please post them here.

Any content update?

[Smiling Imp]

Any content update?

 

I had a new dream quest for Dynaheir with a new level all coded out, but I accidentally deleted it!

 

Aside from a few fixes, nothing else new right now. Starting from scratch on a new Dynaheir quest and beginning a new version of my Cross Banter Mod. Check for updates and add feedback here, or at the home forum.

Not installing all or one of the following components below:

 

Xan

Xan Tob

Ajantis

Ajantis ToB

Kivan

Kivan ToB

 

will give your error which will prevent you from installing component called "Inter Component Banter Pack" so does the prophecy of Setup-BG1NPCSoA.exe says...

• ADDED NEW CONTENT:
  - Added a new small quest for Ajantis (texts by Alisia) and related interjections from other NPCs (texts by Austin)
• IMPROVED:
  - The icon of the new area (Water Gardens) is now compatible with the «BP-BGT-Worldmap mod»! Thanks GraionDilach!
  - Cross-mod dialogues with NPCs from other mods are finally transferred to the add-on – «Smiling Imp’s Cross-banter mod»

@Austin hello. I had a problem installing v 14.3 on BGT. I had to comment out the first 90 ish lines from each of the npc .baf files (eg 7XALOR.baf) to get it to install. I think that new bit of code only works on the EE games. Could that new bit, relating to relative XP when joining, be wrapped in a check to see what the game is and skipped if its not an EE game?

Also, some of the portraits are the wrong size, they're too big and only  a portion of the portrait is showing ingame.

Thanks for your work on this mod

Hello! Indeed, this bug arose because in one of the updates the code for the EE version was added, but I forgot to leave an alternative option for the classic version. I'll fix this in the next update, thanks!

Could you please clarify which portraits you are talking about, please?

Tiax's portrait is fine on the record screen but only a small portion is visible in dialogue and on the main screen where the party member portraits are displayed on the right hand side. Same thing affecting Shar'Teel. I havent checdked the others yet

Thank you for message! It's strange, because on the EE version all the portraits look good, and on the classic version it should be fine too, considering that it was originally created for it. I'll definitely recheck this.
