Framed: Alternate Chapter 6 for BGEE and EET

[Xazarlar]

There is a strange issue with this mod when using project infinity:

As you can see, BG1 NPC project requires itself to be installed after Framed, while Framed requires itself to be installed after BG1 NPC - paradox!

This does not permit installation to ever continue with both these mods selected.

@Lauriel the bg1npc.ini indeed states that bg1npc should be installed after Framed. I put that in but I'm not sure why. What is the recommended install order?

I have no idea why you'd want BG1NPC to be installed after Framed.  Framed has cross-mod compatibility built in for BG1NPC with Garrick and Gorion's letter.  It needs to be installed after in order for these to go in.

I suspect it was simply an error.  We talked about the letter and the need for it go in after BG1NPC

[jastey]

I think I mixed up the "Before - After" syntax in the ini. They are not intuitive for me (no offence @AL|EN), I always reverse them if I do not think about it.

How do you "finish" the quest? I did the catacombs and went back to report to Tethtoril, he tells me they're going to reseal the catacombs but there's no reward and the quest log doesn't update...

 

EDIT: I discovered the cause - the Gatewarden is not present on the top floor, only a normal watcher, so the end-of-quest dialogue breaks when it tries to get him to say something.

I'll add a check to the dialogue.  In the meantime, you can spawn the Gatewarden by putting C:CreateCreature("GATEWA2") in the console.

Why wasn't the Gatewarden present for the conversation?  Is this something I need to work around?

[Lauriel]

A new version of Framed has been released fixing this issue.

[Xazarlar]

Thank you!

As for why, I am not sure - perhaps one of my other mods moves him, but I don't think I have anything that affects Candlekeep other than Framed and Transitions...

Attached my WEIDU log if you are interested

Thank you for the log.  I'll investigate.  My initial stab in the dark would be ARESTORATIONP. I guess it doesn't matter, though.  The fix that I put in place doesn't care if he's there or not.

bg1npc is updated to v27 with hopefully corrected install order syntax with regard to Framed.

Hey,

Do you have any idea if this alternative chapter 6 is compatible with the second part of Bonehill?

Sorry - I don't even know what Bonehill is.

It is an old quest mod. http://www.shsforums.net/forum/194-secret-of-bonehill/

When you leave the Candlekeep Cave and walk around outside the walls of Candlekeep, an NPC called Fabio shows up to teleport you away.

AFAIK he spawns there when the game is in Chapter 7.
