Any ETA for the next patch ? And will the german translation be ready until then ?

[Lucythebeast]

The 1.3 patch will be ready after I get the German translation files... all I'd have to do then is to update the archives and test-patch to make sure everything is working.

[Jolinar]

Oh, that's great. I hope we dont't have to wait too long

Vampire Elder in the rescue Arans daughter quest.

Typo: childer instead on children

Vampire Elder: Intruders! Destroy them quickly, my childer

Should be children
:-)

Edit
Another one

When the PC talks to his daughter and asks if Aran can be trusted you say I certainly hope so, Good bye. Should be :Goodbye (Note the extra space between Good and bye)

Actually that's not a typo. The vampire that creates another vampire is called a sire (regardless of his or her gender) and the vampire that the sire created is called a childe, and the plural is childer. So a young vampire would say "He's my sire. I'm his childe." While the sire might say of a group of vampires he created, "I'm their sire. They are my childer."

Either one is correct. Goodbye is just more common because it's technically an acronym for "God be with you"

That's based one White Wolf's "Vampire", is it not ? Or did they get it from somewhere else, too ?

It's fairly common terminology in vampire stories. But yes, it's in White Wolf's games too.

[Jolinar]

Ok, thanks for the clarification
I guess 'childe'/'childer' has no equivalent in german, that's why I first heard that term in 'Vampire' ....

I have a pretty big problem with chloe...she crashes my bg2 everytime we leave Irenicus' dungeon. He starts yappin "Oh Go child,you have escaped" or something like that and then the game crashes.

I've got Aoe,Valen,solufein,tactics2.

which ones messing it and what do I do to finish one game with chloe?

Yeah noticed that too. The same happened with my female character, but that was already to be expected in the code (though it would be nice to be taken care of as well).

One strange bug i've encountered is that randomly, Chloe will unequip one of her weapons. I didn't use editors or anything, and this situation doesn't seem to have any special reason. I get it, as I said, randomly.

[Lucythebeast]

Just for the heck of it I had Chloe approach Madam Ninn in the Copper Coronet to see who'd she pair off with. To my surprise she went off with the guy!

Yeah I know, that was noticed and complained about during Beta testing too. I guess we never came up with any solutions to it. I wouldn't have thought it would be very hard...

That's most likely due to the script you assigned Chloe, and not a bug with Chloe herself. Most likely, the script either thinks that Chloe is more powerful with only one weapon, or it was trying to load a ranged weapon and discovered that she didn't have one (she can't use em anyway but you're most likely not using a kensai script since I don't think there are any) and it likely didn't have a "put second weapon back in shield hand if no range weapon exists" script. You'll see that in ranger scripts especially... since rangers can use two weapons well and range weapons well, the script will unequip the weapons and put the bow in their hands but when it switches back to melee it'll only use one weapon.

I didn't assign any script to her...

A script would be the only thing that would mess with the weapons, unless you were doing it yourself. Chloe has no internal AI script, she'll only use th one you assign to her. Are you sure she's not set to like fighter aggressive, or something like that?

[Lucythebeast]

What do you mean by "follow her to the dungeon"?

[Grim Squeaker]

The 'has nothing to say' bit sounds like it could be a lack of the official ToB patch. If that is the case, make sure you uninstall any mods before installing the patch. Then you can reinstall your mods.

Hello, great mod, but I have a slight problem with a Aron's daughter quest. I went to look for her and couldnt, so I went back and got the same dialogue that I did before. To see if this happened again I talked to him for the third time and he proceeded to give me the Xp and say the same thing again.

I have these installed:

SoA
ToB
BGII patch

A bunch of WeiDu mods

FWP mods (Kelsey, Flirtpack,etc)

And Big Picture

I really dont think the Big Picture effects it if thats what your getting at. So far Ive had no problems until then. (well a few, but nothing to cry about) I wouldnt really have said anything about this, its just that if I dont do this, I cant really go forward in the game.

Thanks

[Lucythebeast]

Yes that's a known bug. I think it's fixed in the 1.3 patch. We had fixed it before, I thought... but it popped up again.

When should that come out?
