No problem, but you solved that one on your own mate. You've been at this a while too now don't forget. :D

I must admit that I've used the Auto-Save more than once to save the proverbial bacon for the party. We really shouldn't, as these can become unstable for no real reason too.

In fact, one of my groups is b*ggered at the moment, as I was fiddling with Gatekeeper, and I failed to make sure that Dynaheir's spells were in the correct place. Subsequently, her neutralise poison tried to turn up in her level 3 mage spells list. Now, she has no special ability, and can only memorise one 3rd level spell instead of 3 (she's level 6).

I wasn't even doing anything, so it shouldn't have gone so badly wrong. Oh well. I'll have to bite the bullet and get Xan or Edwin for the first time. This party is really designed for me to take people that I don't normally bother recruiting, so maybe it isn't such a bad thing.

I'm back and i got good and bad news. the good news is the prob is over, the bad news is its not really "fixed"/well heres what i did. ignoring everyones advice like the donkey i'm, i loaded the game from the nearest point rushed up and killed the women really really quickly(about 20 secs) then rushed into the temple of Bhaal where i saved and proceeded to kick Saveroks arse. so really the prob isn;t "fixed" but i finished the game so who cares. and by posting i DID help one guy cause another guy helped him. O-kay well i won't be seeing this part of the forum(except to help) again for some time so see yas,

Ah it didn't work....either the patch was not the problem or both my saved game and my auto save game is corrupt.

Don't quote me Mr Underhill, but it may be that you have to start again if you patch mid-game. The patch may not take affect thus, leaving your data hopelessly corrupt (still). Sorry about that.

If start again I must then BEHOLD THE BIRTH OF THE ALL THIEF PARTY!!!!!
