Whops, meant so say:
4g-snap didtn worked either.
Installing windows right now.

What do you mean by didn't work? Was it still hanging at rest?
Are you sure you deactivated patch 4g, and not some other patch nearby? (All the output from your installation should be in setup-pst-fix.debug)

Some NPC's (base) morale starts at 10, but can be modified through dialogues; there are other things which can lower it temporarily.
I'm not sure of what the effects of morale are (that belongs to AD&D rules), and how they could have been modified in this particular game (in BG, morale has to do with creatures or NPCs running away in panic, but I've never seen anyone panicking in PS:T)

I thought:
find all: 83 F8 02 3B C2 0F 84
replace all with: 83 F8 02 90 90 0F 84
would solve it?
Anyway, will try your solution.
Just for the records, uninstall current patch, edit the file, install the patch - right?

The first solution (replace that string) doesn't work for me. Note that the string is written twice in enginefixes.tph: once as a comment, and once it is passed to the macro which actually changes the exe.
What I proposed was to just skip patch 4g, and install all other patches. Try commenting out all text between
SPRINT ...~[something with 4g]~
and
SPRINT ...~[something with 4h]~

Yes, uninstall, edit, save and reinstall is correct

It freezed every single time after resting (no matter where). The resting-video plays and exactly after that, the screen remains black and my CPU goes up to 100% and Wine freezes. I have to force-quit torment.exe in order to exit Wine.
First I tried to replace the strings, after that I enclosed the code with */ and then I deleted the whole 4g part in the tph.
I did it exactly as you said, uninstalled, edited, saved, reinstalled. Nothing worked, but I didnt checked setup-pst-fix.debug though.

I am doing a reinstall my Linux-system (not only because of PST though), after this I will try again with Wine (from ppa) and a new installation of PST without the 4g-part, exactly as you recommended.
Which windows should I emulate in Wine for PST? I used Win 98, since I read it somewhere it would be the best solution.

Anyway, I just want to play the game, because I never finished it when I first got it back then years ago. The blade of Dakkon isnt that important to me right now.
