I recently installed HOW and the HOW manual attempts to explain the use of Gem and Scroll bags. It doesn't do a very good job. To be clear I havn't started HOW yet because I'm still completing IWD. I can't find any indication of a new "bag" slot nor can I purchase them from a vendor. I have the following questions:

a) Do I need to purchase a bag and then place it in a inventory slot?
b) Are the bags already provided and I'm just not seeing them?
c) If I need to purchase a bag who sells them?
d) Once a bag is available how do I use it?
e) Do I need to start playing a HOW game to get access to the "bags"?

Thanks in advance for any responses,

I don't recall exactly from where you get the bags/cases, but once you have one you simply leave it in your inventory. To put something into the bag/case, just drag the item onto the bag/case and let go; potions go into potion cases, scrolls/papers into scroll case, and gems/rings/keys into bags (obviously). To open a bag/case, just right-click on it.
I do seem to recall that bags/cases were available only through HoW.

Every merchant should have some sort of bag. Some have only gem bags others have the other variety. The bag of holding can only be found or bought if you have TotLm.

I wonder if this is a random thing, since I could purchase all three types of bags in Easthaven (with HoW installed, of course); but don't remember them being available in Kuldahar. Maybe I didn't look closely enough....

I know that Orrick has a scroll case and that potion seller has a potion bag. The others i'm not sure about but i think that every merchant has at least one.

JR Jansen is right. Every merchant should have at least one type of container for sale and oftentimes more (possible exception is the guy in Kuldahar who is interested in gems and rare books - he's southeast of Orrick in a small hut - not sure if he has any containers).

Someone could always create a new type of container called a "key chain" for that guy to sell; he always wanted to buy any excess keys I had collected. I suppose he collects them like other people collect salt-and-pepper shakers.

hmm....now that I think about it, that's not a half-bad idea. Yet another reason to reinstall IWD this weekend. Like I really need to find reasons to do that. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It seems to me that "The Hand" was the 1st time I seen a bag of holding... the little ghostie in the shop.
