Cloakwood not appearing open

[Eva Galana]

I installed the Cloakwood opening in chapter 1 element, but it's not opening. Does it appear at start of game, or later in chapter 1?

If you go to the left of Friendly Arm Inn, it should open, I hope.

[Eva Galana]

I did that. No go. Knowing me, I probably messed something up. Not gonna worry - I'll do the Coran romance another time.

[Kulyok]

I see. I'm not sure how that area mechanism works, but posting your Weidu.log might be helpful. Also, did you start a new game after installing that component?

[Eva Galana]

Here's my WEIDU (go ahead, tell me what I messed up! Although looking at this, I have an idea what I did wrong...)! And it is a new game.

So, if you started a new game, going to the FAI in chapter 1 should open up the links - it won't be available before you enter that FAI area, because the area script does the "reveal", and it won't run until you get that "entering FAI" movie and are wandering about there. If you load a save where you have already visited the area, it won't work, because the area will already be in the save file, and the script will already have run that block under the old conditions.

 

No worries on the "change your mind" on the Cloakwood areas - it would not cause any hassles for you. As you can see from the log, when you changed out the Cloakwood component, it uninstalled anything it needed to and then re-installed it.

 

As far as your order goes, you are probsably fine. I'd put Gavin and other NPC's in this order http://forums.gibberlings3.net/index.php?showtopic=8122 as we know it works best, but I suspect Gavin is coded to account for BG1NPC things in either order (you might do a quick search or check with berelinde on that). Lava's White NPC is already in the correct order, so you should be fine there.
