*pops in*

The RE response for Noober should set LS_RE_Noober instead of LS_RE_Anishai.

[Aeryn]

Gah, thanks! It's always that one thing you forget to check...

Hi Aeryn,

Two things: First, the romance is excellent! Expected no less, honestly. Second, a question. Is the PID supposed to pop up on its own right before HD's first lovetalk?

[Aeryn]

If it popped up right as you walk out of the Flagon after saving Haer'Dalis from the Planar Prison, then that's a known issue that will occasionally happen because of a vanilla game conversation that should pop up there. He's supposed to say something directing you to the playhouse as you're on your way to return the gem to Raelis with him in the party, but if that trigger doesn't happen when it's supposed to (half the time in my games it wouldn't come up even when I tried to get it to go), it'll cause the PID menu to open up the first time you walk over it after the romance is active.

If you (or anyone else) had the PID menu open on its own at any other time or place, please let me know the specifics so I can look into it.

[Piperb]

It was outside FF after the PP quest so no worries it is the known issue. And that was the only time it appeared on its own in my game so far. Otherwise all talks, etc are appearing as they should. Underdark with HD is interesting to say the least. Any chance more like that will be added in the future?

[Aeryn]

Weeell, the juicy bits in the Underdark were an experiment of sorts. Initially I wanted to prove to myself that I could actually write them. Haer'Dalis has proven annoyingly difficult to write for in the intimacy department for me. Whether I expand stuff like that to the main portion of the romance will probably depend mostly on feedback I get. It's a lot of effort, so if it's something people are meh about, it'll be hard to feel motivated. On the other hand, it's something that really stretches me in the writing department because I don't feel comfortable with it, so it might be something I force myself to do anyway. Writing smut is good for the soul, right?

I never would've guessed that. All the intimacy talks you created are excellent. I took a look at the .d file after the Underdark encounter. Hands down, that one is my favorite though.

XD Well I ended up with an interesting glitch, I got Aerie's reaction to the Slayer event in spellhold. XD I was expecting HD or Anomen (I totally failed to realize Anomen's romance had stopped. XD Still keeping him in the party, especially after his turn undead started exploding liches XD)

[Aeryn]

Her romance reaction? It's been a long time since I had her along, but I seem to remember something about Aerie's romance stuff popping up in Spellhold or the Underdark when it shouldn't be. I don't remember if I ever knew what caused it, though. Maybe Aerie's just needy.

Edit: To clarify, I meant to say that I believe this was an issue that existed long before the HD mod.

Do you have any multi-romance enabling mods installed, or ones that remove romance restrictions? Would you mind posting your WeiDU.log?

[Iavasechui]

I don't have any multi-romance mods, and as I was a female charname it was rather amusing XD Ummm I can't post it, my only internet is through my psp so I can't upload or copy and paste. My laptop refuses to detect wifi at all now.
Umm unless you count the HD romance's ability for HD to be the 'other man'? Hmm... XD still can't get over the fact that Anomen can blow up LICHES with his turn undead (I may be a bit overleveled XD)

Lol. I just want to chime in here for a minute, Aerie's reactions in Spellhold almost always trigger for me nowadays. Even if I'm in a committed romance with someone else, and even if I'm a female PC. It's gotten to the point where I just manually set her RomanceActive variable to 0 the moment I step foot into the first level of Spellhold.

If anyone could shed some light on this bug, I would be eternally grateful. This has gotten quite annoying over time.

Oh, and I don't use multi-romance cheats or anything.

Hi.
Just finished SoA with this mod installed and encountered a bug at hell when Irenicus is supposed to appear. After inserting the final tear of bhaal Haer'Dalis starts his final lovetalk. Problem is that he seems to interrupt the cut-scene, so the gate opens and nothing else happens.
I was able to get around this through positioning Haer'Dalis right next to my PC, so his lovetalk starts just before the cut-scene starts.
Maybe it would be better to let him start his final talk when the fourth tear of bhaal is used in order to prevent this from happening.

I actually changed the area script to ensure this doesn't occur: it should not be possible. Can you please email me your weidu.log and your AR2900.bcs file? My email is the first three letters of my username @spellholdstudios.net. Thanks!

[Aeryn]

It doesn't sound like those other mods are to blame, at least not for the two lines that you quoted. Those pop up from certain Romantic Encounters components, so I'm assuming you'd done a few RE bits before picking up HD? Technically speaking, I have no idea how to account for that and prevent those backlogged talks from coming up when he joins, but maybe K'aeloree will have a solution. The mystery, though, is why is HD's romance variable setting to 3...definitely something odd there, because the RE "conflicts" don't shut down the romance.

I'm hoping I'll be able to address some of the issues people have brought up in the not so distant future, and I'll defintely poke around and see what I can come up with. Thank you for the report! It's so helpful when people take the time to give details.

A couple of potential typos:

Spoiler

interjections.d:

~A necessarily evil.~

necessarily -> necessary

~A little lower...uhnnn...yes, Hae'Dalis, right there...~

Hae'Dalis -> Haer'Dalis

lovetalks.d:

~Perhaps, but it cannot mean *nothing* to you. You are half diety, after all. Can you truly say that you are no different than any other mortal?~

diety -> deity

~A pity in and of itself, my friend. You were made for better things, and mark my words, one day you will have no choice but to show your strength for what is it. When that day comes, you shall lose your mask of regrets and self sorrow forever, and I will not mourn its departure.~

is it -> it is

~Oh, I must beg to differ, my dear one. I think you could find both in abundance if you'd but open your eyes. Certainly it would not be the same as that which you once had a child, but comfort and safety are two things that come in a variety of forms.~

had a child -> had as a child

~(He catches your hands and dips his face to yours, pausing to give you a small, playful smile before he captures your mouth with his. His tongue softly brushes your lips, a low hum of approval vibrating in his chest. Before either of you can get fully draw into the sensations, he pulls away, giving you one last chaste kiss on the corner of your mouth.)~

draw -> drawn

~That doesn't make a lot of sense. Why would be want to make *me* stronger? Obviously he was after something for himself.~

be -> he

LS_lt14.notalk
+ ~Class(Player1,MAGE_ALL)~ + ~Well, I can't say I'm particularly fond of their views on magic.~ + LS_lt14.mage

Should Class be Sorcerer and Bard as well?

~Oh, no more than any other of the dozens of wedges that could come between us, I'm sure. Worry not, fair one. If anything, I am more intrigued by you now than I was before, and I have no thought it my head to part ways with you any day soon.~

it -> in

~No, I fear I'm terrible skilled at escaping any attempt to saddle my tongue. Surely you can forgive me.~

terrible -> terribly

pid.d:

2x~My wounds pain my greatly, my relentless hound. If you wish to see me a grave man, let us press onward; if you wish for me to fight by your side for another day, I must seek healing immediately.~

pain my -> pain me

~(One blink of those dark pools, and the emotion is gone, replaced by uncharacteristic embarrassment and the fainest hint of shame.)~

fainest -> faintest

13x~I know it might seem like I'm committed to him, but it's not as serious as it might seen.~

seen -> seem

Oh, awesome! Thank you so much. I can never spot my own typos. I'll make sure those are fixed in the next version.
