Does anyone know how to edit gender?

My PC character is a male fighter/Mage. I added the throne of bhaal
expansion pack and went to Watchers keep before finishing BG2. In
Watchers keep i tangled with some Wild mages whom changed the Gender
of a few of my characters. This was no problem at first as I just
rested and all characters gender got changed back, except for one. My
PC character got changed from a male to a female in all ways, but
after I rested only the voice and the looks got changed back to male.
So now my main character looks and talks like a male, but is listed as
a female, casts spells with a female tone and everyone calls him my
lady. I tried using the gender change belt to transfer back but it
did not work. Please if anyone out there knows how to fix this bug
let me know, cause I am getting really tired of being refered to by
all the NPC'S as my Lady!!!!!!!
Thanx

Use the editor called Shadowkeeper, I believe that it should solve your problem.

Thanx,

The shadow keeper seems to be what I need!
One question? Where do I get this product, is it something that I can
purchase in stores or does it need to be down loaded?

Welcome to the forums!! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

http://www.mud-master.com/shadowkeeper/

is where you can get Shadowkeeper for free.

But be warned you can change almost if not everything in the game..and make it a boring unchallenging experiance. So use the power of the SK wisely and have fun with the greatest game (other than Fallout http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif ) in the world!!

shadowkeeper won't help you unless you're willing to experiment a bit. what they're recommending is under the Appearance tab. this will only change the male or female avatar, like if you changed mazzy to look like a male she'd still have her female voice set.

your problem will be in the Affects tab. since you're not any kind of kit it shouldnt be much of a problem as most special abilities get stuck in here (scroll over on a kit class and you'll see SPCLxxx). i'm not sure if the abilities you gain from the tears of bhaal get put in here or not (because other things like the drow transformation do), but just start deleting one at a time any affect that isn't a SPCL and loading it up. make sure the character isn't currently affected by any spells like protection from evil because that gets put here as well and will definitely complicate things for you. trial and error should reveal which one(s) are to blame.

if this works for you, do me a favor and let me know the codes from the line that did it. thanks and good luck.
