Waverley

Game is being played on version 141. other 5 major quests have all been achieved with no problems, but the one in the Windspear dungeon is causing some difficulty. In fact, right now I am stuck with no clue as to what to do next.

I have cleaned out the main Windspear dungeon, apart from two locked areeas. I have explored the 5 areas marked "king strohm's tomb" (the ones mostly full of white ghosts) and progressed from the last one (MD0500) to MD0600. This room has a locked door in the floor, just visible behind a pillar while the area map shows there should be a door to the West. If this is a secret door its a very well kept one as none of my party can detect it

I have re-visited all the available areas in this dungeon (several times) and cannot find either a key or a clue as to what to do next - assistance would be much appreciated.



Less important - the journal I found claimed that white ghosts are only hurt by elemental damage. This I assume to be air, fire or earth elementals. Sure enough, the ones in room MD0200 were quickly killed by (I think) conjoured fire elementals, but those in roome MD0100 and MD0300 were not hurt by any of the three types of conjoured elementals. In the end I had to resort to CTRL Y and I am hoping this hasn't messed anything up.

From the readme it seems quite a bit of work was done in these areas for the latest release - have a couple of errors slipped through, or am I just making a series of mistakes? Thanks in anticipation of an answer

Hi there

Hate to do this, and I'm probably missing something very obvious, but after four hours (real time) and lots of cheating I can't kill the first regenerating ghast I've met (in the windspear dungeon).

Apart from hitting it with as much firepower as I possess (for 10 minutes plus (real time) and every variant of fre, acid, lightning etc I possess I have also tried attacking with conjoured creatures such as Mordenkian's sword and Nishru. None of Death Spell, Sunray, Flesh to Stone, Cloudkill, Disntegrate, Abu Dhazim's Horrid Wilting, Finger of Death have any effect. Can't find a merchant with a weapon that looks any better than what I've got. Even Ctrl Y has doesn't work!

Most of these knock the thing down & give a message about it not being fully detroyed - 5 seconds later its up fighting again.

Suggestions gratefully received - as I said, I'm sure its something obvious I missed.

TIA

Hi all

This may be the wrong forum for this one - if so - apologies.

Am playing BG1 with BGT-Weidu and all the mods I could find which are BG1 specific and have been very happy so far as there have been no insoluble problems till now (and I'm on game day 53 already).

But now I have an irritating little bug - as the only solution I can see for myself is to remove Kivan from my party (I dont really want to do that yet) I am requesting assistance

I am now getting a dialogue from Kivan which starts "The same stoic expression is on Kivan's face. As usual, a curiosity arises within you to learn more of the hooded elf.". This is followed by 8 possible responses - and to most of these, Kivan may give more than one answer . No matter which response I use, the same dialogue is re-initiated almost at once. I've tried all the answers (sometimes after a few times through the loop, the number of potential answers reduces) but the dialogue won't go away. This has the effect of making Kivan unplayable.

I assume its a mod/install problem - any thoughts from out there would be received with thanks - especially if it bypasses the need to re-install and start again!




PS - not relevant to rest of post, not urgent, but nice to know - have I missed any BG1 stuff from my install list? - or any BG2 mods which also affect BG!?

Hi folks

Sorry to ask what is probably a very obvious question - but I've looked at many posts in here and am not sure of the answer

I have the urge to play Baldur's Gate 1 again, this time with as many mods as possible and I'm currently downloading all the stuff described on the Infinity Engine modlist which is listed here in Spellhold as compatible. I don't expect to reach the end in less than about six months, so have no desire at this time to download or install anything which is purely BG2, and would not especially want to take my characters on to BG2 anyway - its purely for the benefit of BG1.

I'm expecting to install BGTrilogy as I think I need it to make some of the mods work, and I definitely want the BG2 interface.

But do I need, or will I benefit from Big Picture? Almost all comments on BP threads refer to BG2 (I'm sure I've missed something somewhere but clarification would be nice) so does it impact BG1?

And if I do install BP, should I be looking at other mods which I have always assumed to be BG2 only, or would that be a complete waste of time?

Thanks in anticipation - David
