I'm playing unpatched BG2 - SoA with my gf and we come across a few annoying MP bugs, and we wonder if this illustrious community knows of any workarounds:)

On the host/server machine: The "pause on dialog" option is reset every now and then, seemingly at random (I want the bloody thing to be activated:)). Is it possible to change the default setting by meddling with a file or anything?

On the client machine: The character's scripts are reset to "none" every now and then, also seemingly at random. This bug also persisted in fully patched BG I TOTSC.

Other oddities: If we set "restrict stores" the neat effect is that we cant enter stores at all. Luckily we dont really need that option to be set... It is also a bit odd that only the CLIENT can initate rest (the party leader char is obviously on the host machine). I have all permissions set for both players, including "leader".

Well.. My guess is that these bugs (if they are bugs) are caused because you don't have a patched game. Make sure you download both the official patch AND Baldurdash fixpack (check for their whereabouts in the FAQ thread made by Dundee) and then check if the bugs are still there. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks! I quickly browsed thru the fixed bug list at the patch site, and it seems to solve at least a few of the problems:)
