Lauriel

I'm using EET which I know isn't officially supported, but I loved this mod so much when I used BGEE, I can't do without it.  Well, I don't want to have to do without it, let's say that.

Most everything seems to work except for Imoen, at least that I've noticed so far.  There was no dialogue when you loot the ambush site, no 'diamond in the tree' dialogue, and no dream dialogues.  I'm not very far through my first run of EET, so I'm not sure what else is missing.

Also, some of the dialogues occured twice.  I noticed this with Viconia especially. This is probably my fault since I think I installed the mod both in SoD folder as well as the EET one.  Would this explain why Imoen isn't working?  Should I start fresh and reinstall?  It takes pretty much an entire day so I'm hoping the answer is 'no', but I'm afraid it's going to be '(duh!) yes, try that'...

Oh, and I had to have them rest in the wild to get the first dream to trigger.  I had quite a bit done but I didn't want to go into chapter 3 before chapter 2's dream kicked in.  I had the crew rest at inns I think the whole time.  So it seems to require at least one outdoor rest session before it'll kick in.  Just something I noticed...

@jasteyYes I did.  It was a good little quest.  But it left me feeling like he really was still dead, in a way.  He'd never be his old self again.  It was very sad.  I love it when games can illicit feelings like that.  It was well done.

I see potential for a real tear-jerker ending if they decide to abide by Mom and Dad's decision. 

To be honest, I used to run right up and get Ajantis into my 'good' group but now, I'm trying to wait until closer to the end so that her heritage comes out before he has a chance to ask her to marry him.  It's more fun to have him go through the 'What have you led me into?!' accusations.  I really enjoyed that.  I was behind the screen going 'Dude!  We were framed!  WTH dude! Exactly what part of that is my fault?!'  LOL  It was so perfectly him, though.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I could use more of it - and maybe some chiming in from the rest of the group.  I could see a rival trying to urge him on to drive a wedge between him and the PC giving the rival an edge.  Or a true-blue supporter of the PC's, like Minsc or Imoen, getting all in Ajantis's face about his accusations.  I don't know how hard all that is to code, it just sounds like fun.  The group is way too calm about the turn of events, if you ask me. LOL  A little venting could be fun.  Maybe small amounts of sploding (splode = minor explosion in my own personal vernacular).

One other thing you did in BG2 that was a real nice touch was the stack of letters to the PC from Ajantis.  I hope she still gets at least some of them in the future even if they're in the 'pre-engagement' stage.

I think I'll install this mod just so I can kill the <worst-name-you-can-think-of> again!  The <worst-name-you-can-think-of> killed Scar, the egg sucking <worst-name-you-can-think-of>!  There are just a couple NPCs I'd love to do in over and over again.  He'd be top of my list.  Thank you!

I'm really happy that you thought the suggestions had merit.  I couldn't ask for much more than that.  I really appreciate the work you have done and still do and look forward to more to come!

BG2: I have a request for additional and / or modified dialogue.  Is it possible to have the PC respond to Ajantis (after the parents say 'no') that the PC needs the support of his family in order to make the marriage work as well as (or in place of) the one that says something on the order of I wanted to be part of a noble family.  The difference being the motivation.  Or perhaps that the PC will have nothing to do with breaking apart a family.  Something more altruistic than 'I wanted to be a noble'.

BG1: Also, is it possible for an option to be added, for his sake, to not accept the engagement at all until the mystery of the PC's origins are made known?  She's getting all sorts of dark hints about her heritage, it should be enough for her to want to be sure who she is before accepting an engagement to a paladin first of all, and one of a noble family especially.

I'm assuming that a PC would have to be a good alignment in order for Ajantis to ask her to marry him to begin with and therefore the PC would be somewhat honorable.  Anyway, as I've said before as Guest LZenn, Ajantis really is the only viable alternative for an honorable (and slightly naive) female PC in BG1, but knowing how it ends, I'm not comfortable with going through with the marriage.  A little angst is ok, though.

Thank you for this info.  I'm in the SoD-Hater club, too.  Thank you for the way to skip it.  Thank you thank you!  As a role player, my first question when SoD starts is, 'And why exactly am I here again?  Are they paying me or something?  Guess not.  Why am I here then?  There was a little place in Beregost I was thinking of renting.  Caelar who?  Skie is my problem exactly why?  I'm so outta here.  Come along Imoen.'

I gotta learn how to mod - I gotta.  There has to be a smart-ass way to move out of the ducal palace and tell them to kiss the hero's backside as she walks out the door.  Granted, we all still be caught by Irenicus, but that'll happen no matter what and this way we're not accused of murder on top of it.

But thank you again!  Merci beacoup!  Danke shoen!  Muchas gracias!
