Interesting that it would conflict now but not the first time through the mod.  I know so little about programming and DOS ....  

I have been replaying from an earlier save game.  I'm almost to the point where Edwin tells the PC he wants to fetch the scroll.  We'll see how it goes this time.

I do have Ease of Use installed. However, I had it installed the first time I played the Edwin romance mod and had no problems. Or do you mean it will affect the portrait?

I have a number of mods installed, so I can't remember which mod had what component, or whether I installed any particular component. I believe the EoU mod allows you to pick and choose what you wish to install. But if there was a different portrait offered for Edwina, then I certainly would have installed it. It was odd that BioWare didn't put in a new portrait! :blink:

I noticed you mentioning a different portrait. Do you have any other mod installed that involves Edwin? If so, there could be a conflict between mods that's causing your problem.

I'm not aware of any mods that involve Edwin that I've installed since I last played through this mod. I did install a bard mod called Song & Silence (or something). I don't see how that would affect anything in this mod, but you never really know until something pops up.

I found that different portrait interesting too. This "new" portrait is Edwin's, only modified slightly to make him look like a woman. The portrait I had the first time through the mod looked nothing at all like Edwin (except the lady had a nose ring). Personally, I think the modified Edwin portrait makes more sense than the one that bears no resemblance to him. Just my two cents. ^_^

Nope, nope, as I remember, all the answers worked well for the quest. (Our Fargus used to ADD new bugs, not to correct the original ones  :D )

Behold the wonder of readme files :) The "party treasure" bug is one of the Eddie bugs that Baldurdash fixes. The same readme also gives a fix for stalled Nether Scroll quests, which is below. :)

Quit BG2. Edit BALDUR.INI in the BG2 folder (Notepad works for this) and put the line
Debug Mode=1
under the [Program Options] line. Run BG2. Load the savegame. Press Ctrl-Space for a console. Put the pointer over Edwin so that his circle shimmers, then type EXACTLY into the console:
CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("ScrollStudy","LOCALS",1)
and press Enter. This should set the variable properly. Save the game (it's recommended to use a new save slot in case something went wrong.) Quit BG2 and edit BALDUR.INI to remove the line that was just added. Then rerun BG2 and load the save and play normally.

*Smacks forehead* This was in the readme file? Sheesh, you'd think I never read those things!

I guess I must have picked the party treasure option (don't really remember). I tried your fix RavenBlack and it sort of works. I get the scroll talks, but Edwin turns into Edwina only briefly before turning back into his old self. The game recognizes him as Edwin, not Edwina. Oddly, the portrait remains Edwina's. Even odder, the portrait is different from the one I saw the last time through!

At any rate, I may reload an earlier save game and be more careful of what I say to Edwin. That seems to be the simpler solution even if it means replaying a bit. :rolleyes:

Three days?? Is it because of romance? I mean, on my comp the MOD is not installed, and it takes about 2-3 in-game weeks for Eddie to become Edwina... and about the same time to get back to his normal self...

I'll try to be clearer. :blush:

I have retrieved the Nether Scroll but Edwin has not had anything further to say about it (nor any LTs) in 7+ in-game days. I believe he should have one dialogue about the scroll, then a second, after which he turns into Edwina. I haven't had that first dialogue about the scroll yet.

Maybe I'll reload an earlier game (if I have one) and see if it works. Otherwise, I'm still open to CLUAConsole solutions!
