Mod questions

Azaghal · 09-29-2004, 10:18 AM

I have installed several mods, so I'm not absolutely certain which mod these particular questions (Unfinished Business maybe) are concerning. I could look it up if necessary, but maybe you can help anyway:

Minor SPOILERS:

1. Moneylender
I talked to a woman in the slums (on top of the roof of the Copper Coronet). She asked for help with the money lender whom she could not repay. He promised me he wouldn't harm her, but his goons kidnap her child. So I paid her debts and they tell me, her child was somewhere in the graveyard. Indeed there is a child, but when I talk to her, she has nothing to say. How can I finish the quest?

2. Valygar
I'm trying to find Valygar, but I can't enter his cabin.
Talked to Suna Sei (spelling?) in the Copper Coronet and the man in the government building (Lush?). Neither of them will give any information. They just tell me to get lost and that's it???

3. Lord Silmanach (?)/Lug
The Lord and his thugs attack the boy Lug right in front of me. He does not die, but conversation starts and the lord hands me a letter saying I should meet him in the Copper Coronet. When I meet him there we are both taken to the pit where a mage gates in several kids. The lord starts to fight them, but they are not dying. When I attack him he takes blow after blow without turning hostile or dying. A bug?

I'm afraid there's currently a bug with a certain path in this quest, which means the girl won't speak when she should. Until the new version is released, you can enter the following into the console prior to talking to her, and it should work correctly.

CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("SPRITE_IS_DEADd0thug2","GLOBAL",1)
CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("SPRITE_IS_DEADd0thug3","GLOBAL",1)

Apologies for the (pretty nasty) bug.

A nasty bug, from the mightiest modder?
"Whoops"

Good to know the fix for this.

I've never claimed to be anything other than grossly incompetent. Probably.

Azaghal · 09-30-2004, 09:26 AM

Thank you SimDingO. Good luck hunting the bug.
Anyone for the other two questions???

Number 3 is part of the Improved Battles mod.

The problem is I think you have the US version of the game, which does not allow children to die. There's a way to get around it, but I don't remember what - try looking at the forum at forums.forgottenwars.net

Number 2 is from Unfinished Business. The "proper" order is Tolgerias (in the Gov't District), then Valygar's Butler (in "Valygar's Home" in the Docks), then Suna Seni (you already know where).

It may be that you talked to the wrong person (Lush?) or that you need to go to the Docks, then back to Suna Seni.

I never thought of that. Children don't die even as casualty of crossfire in a battle, like fireballs? Yep, that sounds like the American version of events.

Except that that's not accurate, it's the European version of the game in which children are unkillable.

Andyr · 10-04-2004, 06:50 PM

Are you sure, JC? I have no problem killing kiddies in my spangly UK version. Or is it just continental Europe?
