NPC stutter bug

[Guest penguin]

Hey again,

 

Sorry I've been posting so much lately with different issues, but this is the last one, I swear!

 

So basically, npcs are having trouble bantering SOMETIMES, they make the selection sound, turn toward another character, then do nothing. The wierd thing is, it only happens sometimes. The banters do work occasionally..

 

I've had this at least once with each member of my party of myself, dynaheir, minsc, imoen, jaheira, and khalid. But, the wierd thing is, this happens fairly frequently but the banters DO work sometimes, both with each other and with me. After reading many threads, I assumed ctrl+I forces triggers, so I tried hitting it repeatedly. Sometimes, nothing happens, other times, npcs do the turn-and-selection-sound thing, and other times the banter will trigger correctly.

 

Sooo I was wondering if I'm just getting stutters because I ran out of banters (I have the banter accelerator installed and I'm in chapter 5, but I did all of the quests before entering baldur's gate + durlag's tower + some of the quests in baldur's gate and NOW i'm on wolf island) or if something else was wrong

 

Thanks!

I've seen this reported before but I can't remember where. Can you post your WeiDU.log file.

I'm about to fight sarevok now so it's not much of an issue, but hopefully this will help other people with the same problem

Oh and while we're here, dynaheir's LT 26 (the one after entering Undercity) doesn't trigger, even after I tried AdvanceRealTime(999999) (current LT value is 51) any ideas?

[cmorgan]

I will take a look -

 

I am not sure about the Banter problem. I know that a cartain number of traditional banters are actuall sound-only ones, so they are supposed to turn to eachother and say something only through sound (vanilla game) - I always trigger a bunch of these when running through the banter accellerator. But I will take a look at both that and Dynaheir's Undercity LT tomorrow night.

[Miloch]

The closest thing I found was a possible problem with PID and Branwen as reported here - seems to have been fixed and you don't have Branwen, but maybe it's similar.

 

The conditions for that Dynaheir LT as per p#dyrom.baf seem to be: PC is a match and in romance with D, chapter=7, dream=7, no enemies present, party rested.
