i'm trying to move from bg1 to bg2 in the megamod, but the transition is buggy. i had to clua in beltbrd.cre to activate duke belt's transition dialogue. it seems to go well, but once i wake up in chateau irenicus, the main man is late for the show!

i hope this is a known issue. searching for irenicus in nearinfinity, i can see that jon1.cre is there. it is also in the bgtnej backup folder, but copying the backup to override didn't help.
looking at jon1.cre's data looks like jon1.dlg is greyed out. i can't find the dialogue file anywhere, so could that mean he's missing his script?

does anyoneknow the name of the cutscreen files, so i can have a look at them? thanks

i think i managed to circumvent the problem, for now. i paused just before the cutscreen, clua'd in irenicus, and then i regained control again.
irenicus said nothing. the message changed from "arrears busy" in white, to "has nothing to say to you" in red around the time the cutscreen should finish.
but i'm dreading the other cutscreen situations. if jon1.dlg really is missing, it could cause some major problems..

Due to the above woes, I was curious to find out if irenicus' cutscreen would work properly at the end of Chateau Irenicus.

 

But just before it should commence, my main character is stuck in a Region of Terror cutscreen!

I googled for any mention of the problem on forums, and I found 2 similar stories (though not exactly the same).

http://www.shsforums...enicus-dungeon/

http://www.shsforums...ateau-irenicus/

They talk about cutscreen bugs on chateau level 1, at the start or when leaving the portal.

I want to leave level 2 to waukeen's promenade, but the cutscreen issues are similar. The second link describes the game hanging, which is what my game does in mid-cutscreen.

 

As Jarno advised in the link, I change-logged NEWGAME.BCS, AR0602.BCS as well as AR0603.BCS.

That breaks the game, go to the BGTNEJ folder and open up the backup folder and then the 0 -folder and then restore the backup from there to the override folder and that should fix the imoen... you might try the same with the other files to fix the other problem you have and make sure to know which of the backups work and which won't...

I did that, but it didn't fix my current cutscene problem. I actually think I managed to circumvent *that* gamebreaking problem with ninja-timed pausing, like i described in the 2nd post. My Imoen worked fine afterwards.
I looked up some cutscenes in NearInfinity, and I found theproblem cutscenes: ENTERJ.BCS runs after exiting AR0603 (CI level 2), then I think CUT01.BCS should run after it (or before?). But instead, I'm stuck. After the cutscene fades to black then colour is restored, I'm still left all alone waving around my sword in the wind in area RR9000, with no access to GUI.
 Below I added the code from ENTERJ.BCS - I wonder if I can add the line StartCutScene("CUT01"), or is that one linked to entering AR0700?

Anyway, if I can't solve this, are there any globals I need to set if I just decide to CLUA myself into AR0700?
ps: i cut a big bit of the midsection of the code out (row of exclamation marks is where), because I can't find the spoiler tag, and the cutscene seems to work mostly, only it strands me in there at the *end*.
