Dialog multiplayer bug

[IranicuS]

Hello guys,

I'm currently playing BG2 again with my brother (multiplayer) and we have faced an annoying bug. The NPC's (which are Jaheira, Minsc, Edwin, Hear'Dalis and Keldorn; I'm playing an assassin) seem to ignore each other. Normally they have conversations which make the game such a good game. I see that they are talking to each other ( lips-symbol in the portret, turning to each other) and the first sentences of the dialogue ( keldorn says to Jaheira: "So this is your Harper hold, Jaheira") and instead of continuing the dialogue quits. One more fact: In the beginning it was all fine, but after a while the bug happened, I cant recall when.
Do you guys know what it could be and how I can resolve it.. I'd still like to hear Hear'Dalis saying his verse to edwina, for instance.

Mod installed:
tactics
Xan
redemption
Acention
Dungeon be gone

Howdy IranicuS,

hmmmm..... why does that name ring a bell....

Ascension & Redemption mods indicate you've got TOB - did you install the official 26498 patch ?

Installing one of the fixpacks after the official patch is usually also recommended - probably the one from G3 since Baldurdash isn't supported any more.

I'm not familiar with multiplayer--it's possible (though not terribly probable) that non-quest and non-romance banters are turned off in multiplayer, to give the computers less stuff to worry about.

When people talk about their banters getting "stuck," a common solution I see suggested is to select each of your party members, one by one, and press the K key for each of them. Then again, I only see this bugfix mentioned in the READMEs of certain mods (Kelsey and Icewind Dale NPCs, specifically), so I don't know if it works on the original game . . . but it's certainly worth a shot.

Lastly, why the heck are you playing a Multiplayer game with only 1 player-created character? Are you controlling the Assassin while your brother does the rest?

First of all thx for the replys.
Well one thing worked and that was we both have 3 characters controlled, they will only talk to each other if they are controlled by the same player for example i got jaheira and my brother got asassin it won't work but if i got them both under my control they will talk to each other...
So it is just a strange bug i think it is because it is a old game who don't have good multiplayer support...
