First there was that hilarious conversation in Valeria's house and now Gavin just asked, "Why did it have to be spiders?"

What an unexpected surprise!

<3 <3 <3

Yup! that worked. He's now sweet talking up a storm. :-D

thanks for that update. Glad to hear I made a difference.

Just making sure: I've done Bassilius, Mutamin and Valeria. Is that it for the Gavin quests? Some of the unintentional spoilers I came across hinted at a quest involving Lanie but that hasn't happened yet and it has been more than five days.

Also my char started off as a True Neutral but I read that Gavin wouldn't romance a Neutral character. So I changed my char to Neutral Good. Is that enough to get Gavin to romance my char? Or Is there something else that needs to be modified? Or is it too late?

Thanks!

Thanks for looking into this, Roxanne. I really appreciate the time and effort you took on my behalf.

One last question: Where did you find that script thing? I'm a techie of no small talent (actually it is a tiny talent, but hey, better than nothing!) and if I'd known about that script I could have figured this out myself.

For that matter if I can learn how to write the script I might be able to come up with my own mods....muhahahaha!

00000077-still no Gavin Quest.7z is the save where I pulled my global variables for you. Please note that the messenger has come and gone (which is why I created the save) and Basilius is dead.

00000074-Chapter 2 start..7z was created AFTER I received the quest but BEFORE I went into the caves. I've already taken a stab at killing Basilius and found him too difficult. The messenger has not yet arrived. I include this save in case someone wants to try and reproduce the bug. Assuming it is a bug.

(bonus points if you can figure out why my reputation isn't increasing).

000000077-still no gavin quest.7z

000000074-chapter 2.7z

Global("B!GavinMessenger1","GLOBAL",3) means either: You were at the temple with Gavin after the messenger and Kelddath gave the Bassilus quest (obviously not in your case), or: you've heard from Kelddath about Bassilus before any messenger (with or without Gavin in the party) - but then there shouldn't be a messenger concerning the Bassilus quest for Gavin. *scratches head* Do you remember when you talked to Kelddath in the temple and heard about Bassilus, was it with Gavin in the party, did Gavin join afterwards, or did he leave the group somewhere before or after Bassilus was killed?

Wait - did you kill Bassilus *before* you spoke to Kelddath and Gavin the first time?

What game are you playing (BG:EE, Tutu, BGT) and which version of Gavin?

 

Thank you, Roxanne, for supporting Gavin.

(If this would be my mod I would consider changing Gavin's joining motivation from "want to earn money" to "want to earn money and my High Priest offers a reward for killing this Bassilus so why don't we do that together" and skip the first messenger. It's not my mod, though.)

I got the quest *just* before adding Gavin to the party. And I tried to kill Bassilus before going to the mines but at that time he was too tough an opponent so I headed to the mine, encountered the messenger, did the mine and then went back to the temple.

Trying to figure out how to upload an attachment to this forum. Help?

 

 

You need to look up some globals in order to narrow your problem down because Gavin's quests depend on what you already might have done in the game:

 

 

 

 

- did you kill Basilius?

- did you kill Mutamin?

- did you meet Valeria?

In the Temple you taklked to the priest to get a quest?

 

 

Look for the following globals

- B!GavinMessenger1

- B!GavinMessenger2

- B!GavinMessenger3

either with Near Infinity, EE Keeper or with console.

GetGlobal("B!GavinMessenger1","Global") or 2 or 3

 

Then report which of these globals is greater than 1.

 

 

 

Basilius is dead

Don't know how Mutamin is yet

I've seen Valeria but haven't spoken to her yet.

And I've been back to the temple several times but haven't gotten the quest yet.

 

Variables:

B!GavinMessenger1 is 3

The other two messenger variables are absent.

 

This looks like the Basilius quest is finished (with otr without Gavin) and the Mutamin quest is not yet started, so the temple has no task for you. There is a five day wait in between quests or even more depending on what timers you selected at install.

 

You can check if everything is fine by looking at these

- Global("B!GavinBassilusQuest","GLOBAL") should be greater than 4

- Global("B!GavinMutaminQuest","GLOBAL") should be 1

- Global("B!GavinMutaminQuestTimer","GLOBAL") should give you some value expressing game time

If all this is set, then you are in the waiting period between quests.

 

So being summoned to the temple was a bit of a misnomer? I'm replaying the part between where I finish with the mines and where Gavin reminds it has been three days since he was summoned to the temple.... so why is it three days? Why not five?

Hello,

I've installed the Gavin mod via the BiG world project along with several others. So far, I really, really like Gavin as a character but something has gone wrong with his first (?) quest. My party received a messenger saying that he needed to go back to the Morningstar Temple. Since we were about to enter the mines I selected the, "We need to finish our current quest" option. As it turns out I made short work of the mines and made my way back to the temple...but the quest didn't trigger.

Now in other...let's call them "alternative" play through... my PC forgot about the quest and Gavin had to remind me. Then I was killed and had to go back to before the reminder and start again. However in my...let's call it actual play through ... even though it has been several days since the messenger came through I have not received that reminder.

I've done some googling and read through these forums but I haven't found a solution for this problem. I suppose if I dug a little deeper I would find the answer I require, but every time I start reading I learn something about the mod that I really didn't want to know. Good stuff...stuff that would have liked to have been surprised by in the game. So I'm really hoping someone will just spoon feed me the answers I need without spoiling anymore surprises.

Please let me know if there is anything you need from me.

Thanks,
