And here is the changelog:

I sent these changes to Sister Vigilante last year, November 9th, but the mod is still not updated and I didn't even get an answer.

Can anyone from the administration please update the mod?

Just wanted to let you guys know you made a mod that people are still playing/enjoying for the first time. Thank you for putting so much hard work into Angelo!

G3 is pleased to announce the release of Version 6 of Angelo.  This Baldur's Gate II mod adds Angelo Dosan, the fighter-turned-mage who served as your brother's henchman in Baldur's Gate. You may remember that he sentenced you to death and fought against you in the Undercity, and if you were lucky enough to mine the content, you may remember that he is Shar-Teel's father. Most likely he didn't survive your game, but people in this world seem to have a knack for not staying dead. Version 6 brings native EET compatibility to the mod, numerous bug fixes and optimizations, and item description corrections on EE games. You can learn more about the mod on the project page or the forums . The mod download can be found in the download center.

And my unofficial notes...

v6 started with a bug report on Discord about the sounds not working on Linux. Once I was working on it already, EET updates were easy to add. A review of the items led to some minor bugfixes and description updates and I had enough for a release. With @Sister Vigilante and @Kulyok's permission, v6 was packaged and released and also put up on Github.

v6 Changelog

• Now works natively on EET
• Fixed bug where sounds and music did not work on case-sensitive operating systems (e.g. most Linux distros)
• Some additional modernization and optimization
• Fixed numerous minor bugs with items; e.g. many of the items that provided immunities did not block all effects, weapon speed factors were incorrect, etc.
• On EE games, items will now match the EE descriptions in style and form. Also corrected some minor errors in the item descriptions for both original and EE games

I played all the way up to the Sawara fight, but after i smacked him with 4 horrid wiltings and he died - how the hell do i leave his hideout?

There seems to be no Exit. The Fox turned red as soon as the fight started and died in battle, and, strangely a second one who appeared during the fight did likewise, at least thats what i think happened, cause there are two fur-coats-to-be lying on the floor next to Hayates shriveled corpse. I suppose i could try and spawn a new one, but i have no idea how to do that, tbh. I need a creature code and a command, right?

Suu is still alive, but she just blows me a kiss and gets the fuck out of there. So - was that supposed to happen, or is that a bug?

And people to manually use if they please. Without the BW(S) fixpack.

Grab it at http://gibberlings3.net/angelo , as usual.

To start off with, I really enjoy the Angelo NPC Mod so far. An interesting Character, decent (but not overpowered) stats and items, fun quests and a fantastic Romance including a nice Flirt Pack. Good stuff!

Unfortunately, I believe I might have run into an issue with the Angelo Romance in ToB...

!!!SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

I am continuing a romance started in SoA and I am pretty sure I've seen everything there is to see in the Romance. For reference, my final SoA-Lovetalk was the one with the butterfly and I've heard that is the last one in SoA.

After starting ToB Angelo immediately initiated the first ToB Lovetalk, where he basically wants to break up with <Charname> as he believes he is to old for her. Of course I told him that this doesn't matter and he seemed happy to hear that. When the party entered Saradush, Angelo asked if he can leave for a while as he had some business to attend to. I assumed he was buying a present for <Charname> as he wouldn't allow me to accompany him nor did he told me what he was doing. I met him in the tavern, where he rejoined me right away. Strangely his "rejoin dialogue" was the same he has, when you try to kick him out of the party.

Well and since then I hadn't had a single Lovetalk with him. I figured, maybe I have to wait till some specific event in the Main Quest has happened, but even after the Master Wraith disguised as Gorion in the Swamps summoned Shar-Teel, he didn't feel the need to talk to me about it. I just killed Yaga-Shura and even though Angelo asked <Charname> how she felt after the City has fallen, this wasn't a "real" Lovetalk with the music and such. And now I am kinda worried that my Romance is stuck somehow and doesn't trigger any more new Lovetalks.

The game recognizes the Romance as active, I can still Flirt with Angelo just fine. And the other parts of the Mod seem to work as intended as well - Angelo and Imoen banter a lot (he even gave her a present), I met Suu in Saradush, eliminated Ginpachi and Angelo asked what my strategy was before charging into the Siege Camp.

So...is something wrong with my game? Or do I have to wait just a little bit longer, till Angelo will initiate a new Lovetalk?

Thanks for the help in advance! =)

Anyway, I have a female protagonist with charisma above 12 who tried flirting with Angelo twice, got told to hang her shift in the closet basically, and then fell in to the pit of nothing. I've ran out of anything to talk to him about in PID's (though I can be bitchy and ask if Tamako is prettier then me, which seems like I'm at stage one of the romance), yet he hasn't initiated a talk with me in... well, forever. At least one in game week, three times of trying to CLUAConsole:AdvanceRealTime(999999) to see if that would trigger it, and without beling CLUAConsole's Valgyar from RE and Haer'Dalis have probably had five or so sort of romantic conversations without Angelo starting his romance. Even Yoshimo and Mazzy from the friendship mod over at SHS have had around three conversations with me while I've been waiting on Angelo.

Is there something I'm missing? A specific requirement for the first lovetalk that somehow I haven't triggered? Or, failing all that, is their a way to trigger the first love talk to start using the CLUAConsole?

I'm currently replaying SoA with a few of the mods I recently discovered or overlooked in the past, one of them is Angelo. I originally got the recommendation for playing it from Kulyok over at the Pocketplane forum when I was dropping a review for one of her mods. At any rate I'm having a bit of trouble balancing my party around Angelo. It's a bit amazing how it can be so hard to put together a party and fit everyone in when Baldur's gate 2 has a six player party compared to usual two companions in more modern Bioware games.

Before I get into all that though I wish to just thank you for the lovely mod and say I enjoyed Angelo a lot so far even if I'm not even half way through SoA. His conversations been both charming and adorable at times and there was especially one a brief while ago that made me laugh, it's the one when Angelo and the PC does talk about becoming lovers and Angelo list all the bad things he's done in his life yet in the end when the PC can bring up that she is the daughter of Bhaal he simply did not care at all. I can't remember the exact quote now but it was my favorite moment to date in the mod so far.

Eh, anyway I do have a small problem and feedback would be welcome.At the moment I'm at the stage when I realise I will have to go to Spellhold sooner or later and it has the potential to ruin everything when it came to my carefully planned party. It looks like this at the moment.

1: Enia, my character. Halfling assassin - Crossbow Archer

2: Angelo - Melee/Mage support

2: Korgan - Melee

3: Mazzy - Short bow Archer

5: Branwen - Kulyok's mod to serve as my cleric, I use her to buff the party and for summon spells before hitting things with a hammer.

6: Jan - Mage/thief. Was suppose to be the main mage and main thief but currently has less mage levels then Angelo. x)

The problem is that I love them all but there simply is no slot for Imoen. I already planned to give up Korgan for Seravok in TOB, it's not something I want to do but I rather have Seravok then the dwarf when it comes down to it. However there is no one in my party I want to sacrifice for Imoen. The problem with some characters like Imoen or Jaheira is that I used them so many times I more or less know all their dialog already and I did semi-want a party that would feel fresh and work together. Sadly the Angelo Readme state that Imoen is highly recommended and I'm not sure if it will mess up the romance or make the whole thing a little weird if I leave her behind.

So my question is simply how much impact it will have if I leave Imoen behind? It's something that's almost impossible to justify since it's the players own sister but I would mostly try to forget about her entirely if possible. At the worst case scenario I will have to sacrifice Jan and let Imoen take over the mage/thief role but I would prefer not to do so since Jan's dialog is quite amusing and he does talk a lot under normal quests and add things to the game that I have not seen before or mostly forgotten since I havn't used him in a long time. I realise it's a rather old mod and these forums might not be monitored too much anymore but it will probably take me a few more days to reach Spellhold so I figured it was worth a try. I would appreciate a response if you do see it and have time to answer.

After defeating Sawara and leaving his little pocket hideaway for good, the journal keeps all those Sawara entries. The last one is the one titled "The Sword," starting with "Sawara has commissioned us..."

I'm not sure if I missed a trigger and thus the XP for finishing it or whether I should just delete the quest entries?

PS. Thoughts on the fight:

As for the mod as a whole, it's definitely my favorite NPC mod so far. I wish it wasn't the same person voicing Xan and Angelo, though (as they're both in my party), not to mention Sawara as well.

My character, a male fighter/cleric, chose not to Ascend, yet Angelo's epilogue indicated that there was a new deity favoring him. Did I get the wrong ending?

Also, from the moment I was able to leave Saradush, Anomen would experience a minor injury every time I loaded the game up (seemed to be tied to his hammer), and the Solar would suffer a minor injury every time she appeared. I was wondering what might be causing either of these?

I'm probably stealing SisterVigilante's thunder, but it's his own fault for not announcing right away (evil grin): a new book by him, Guardian Angel, is avialable at Kindle store. It's a very good book - I read it for pleasure and enjoyed it a lot. As you could've guessed, it takes place in Japan, and focuses on the phenomena of hikikomori(antisocial guys who NEVER leave their rooms. Since I spent my latest vacation shut in like that and REALLY enjoyed it, I think I can relate).

So, if you have a Kindle, my recommendation is a no-brainer: buy it.
