Oops, you are right. Thank you for the interest, btw!! Currently I am designing the friendship path, once I have the outline the writing is done rather quickly. It's the "what should happen when" that takes longer for me. Apart from that work goes slowly due to RL occupancies and a small BG1 mod I want to finish.

That's what I thought. Thank you!

That was me, somehow logged out. Thank you, too, Kulyok. How would you mute them? By adding references to a blank audio file?

Mwah! Would it help to change that first line to the "You are a beautiful lady" (I don't know the exact phrasing)? (Only at the places where it fits, though.) References to a specific line of his soundset could be added to the first lines of the LTs, as well as the PID. (I took so great care and effort to make this paladin romance not becoming silly (by Ajantis courting a PC of rep 8, for example, tracing PC's decisions by an own trigger variable, etc. etc.) and then *that*! )

Thank you very, very much for this review, or should I say praise of the Ajantis romance, Ana Christina! You made a modder very happy. And I am glad you enjoy(ed) the romance like you do. Thank you! Voicing: As I already said, I had to laugh when reading this, and will giggle from now on when I hear Ajantis' "Helm, give me strength!" in the future. Thank you.

Kerzenburgforum Sir Ajantis NPC mod for BGII The modification introduces Ajantis, the known BG1 NPC, paladin of the Order of the Radiant Heart into BG2. With this modification Ajantis can be acquired as a member of the PC's group after the fight in the Windspear Hills (which was not changed by the mod principally). The player must then solve a quest to free Ajantis from Firkraag's ransom. This mod is compatible with original BGII, BGT, BGII:EE, and EET! You can get the Sir Ajantis BGII mod here: Official Download Mirror at the Kerzenburg-Forum This is also the discussion thread about my Ajantis Portrait Pack. I changed the topic title. Feel free to use this thread to post comments and bug reports, or follow the link(s) to the forum at Kerzenburgforum. ========================================= Since there seems to be some interest in my Ajantis for BGII mod, I post the links to the English threads here. Thank you to all who expressed their interest in this mod, it is highly appreciated! Discussion Thread at Kerzenburgforum (German) Thank you for following the links. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to use this thread, or post over at Rosenranken, or PM me, whatever you think fits. There is no release date yet. Work goes slowly due to heavy RL committments. I'll post progress updates approx. once a month.

Now I see the portrait, thank you, Domi. For me there is something with the hair, too. I think I miss a shadow on the forehead. The portrait is very good, but it somehow looks more like a dark coloured human to me.

I guessed something like that but the list was so nice.

Maybe the following is useful for the fixpack (this is an extraction of the error report of my 3rd-and-still-not-working Tutu transition. I like the thought it might be useful somehow):

"CreateCreature" is not allowed to have the "face destination" coordinate for vanilla BG1, for example. BG1: CreateCreature("creature",[xxx.yyy]) BG1 + TotSC: CreateCreature("creature",[xxx.yyy],z) (like for BGII) IESDP only gives the BG1 + TotSC action syntax, unfortunately. I will have a look whether I find some more tonight, but I think that was my only problem. I'll try to recall who gave the hint about that, and I'll let you know. I would assume Bg1-modder Zed Nocear knows these things, or at least a lot more than me, for example (sorry Zed, I hope it's OK if I post something like this).

When reading this I thought Baronius released a GC version for BGII. I am definitely not the person to discuss complex coding with, but the slime quest has one download for vanilla BG1, BG1+TotSC, and BGII engine, too. I agree to everything you said about BG1 coding, especially since there are syntax differences between BG1 with and without TotSC, making it necessary to treat these two separately more than only because of area/variable names. That is a very nice tutorial, cmorgan!

That sounds very interesting in principal! Would you mind posting a tutorial, maybe? Or send them to me (you have my email address). I was thinking about releasing Ajantis romance for vanilla BG some two years ago but gave up the thought rather quickly after realising how much triggers would be missing in the BG engine compared to BGII.

PPG Forum works good for me, no problems.

Haha, when reading the flirt preview I thought it would go like this: :)

Non-English spam! Cute. EDIT: I guess this post can be deleted. It was referring to a spam post.

(I can't edit my above post. Yes, I should have started a new thread instead of clustering this one.). Actually, what I noticed is the following: AnomenRomanceActive is set to "2" the first LT after the accolade! LG Anomen: CN Anomen: Sorry if this is common knowledge, but I didn't know that. That's unfair! Tricky old snob, my PC always thought she has a chance to actually decide that for herself! Considering this my above post is obsolete... But for the romance conflict I planned in my BGII NPC mod these findings are bad.

Maybe you mean with this what I spotted in BANOMEN.dlg, but I'll report nonethless: If the protagonist reluctantly follows Anomen to his love night confession and then declines (politely) that she does not want to spend the night with him, AnomenRomanceActive is not set to 3, leading to the case that Anomen starts calling her my love nonethless and the PC gets the "committed" LT with RA = 1 This is the state I am referring to in BANOMEN.dlg: IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 437 // from: 436.1 431.2 429.3 SAY #35876 /* ~Wie Ihr wünscht, werte Dame. Vielleicht ist dies der falsche Zeitpunkt, oder ... vielleicht fühlt Ihr nicht das Gleiche wie ich. Ich wünsche jetzt noch keine Antwort. Ich bin zufrieden damit, an Eurer Seite bleiben zu dürfen, als Gefolgsmann und Begleiter.~ */ IF ~~ THEN DO ~RestParty()~ EXIT //should include SetGlobal("AnomenRomanceActive","GLOBAL",3) END

And I was so much counting on variables being transferred from Tutu to the restored BGII game. If Kulyok is doin Xan for BGII, that would be already three BGII mods in use of such a transfer.

When writing the romance I noticed that writing for a paladin is sometimes not very easy, given the IE engine possibilities for checking the PC behaviour. The reason I reduced the alignments to good only is to prevent the situation where Ajantis tells his lady how admirable he thinks she is after she actually did something rather nasty (my nightmare). There were discussions about what restrictions are apropriate, and I think most participants agreed that the alignment/ class checks do always exclude a PC that would meet Ajantis' specifications because it all comes down to how the player makes the PC behave, which can only be barely checked in the game. So I apologise to all who find there PC falling through the restrictions although they see her as an appropriate match for a paladin. Including LN should be no problem, though.

Why? He destroyed Garren's life long time ago and already lost interest in him. Garren's kid was only captured so the PC would go chasing, but he lost interest in the PC after the first meeting. Unless you give Fierkraag new "interest" that collides with the PC's and Garren's I don't see the "capturing Garren" feature makes much sense story wise. My 2c

Yay! Great thing Kulyok! Fits in perfectly as my comp died this morning so the Ajantis flirts might take a bit longer to finish than I planned. (The situation is not hopeless, though, so don't worry.) But still (Sorry for wallowing.)

Ajantis Romance, first build (no PC flirts yet) is ready for beta-testing.

You forgot one question: Is this meant to be a joke mod? I'm still thinking about what to think of this. I wish you good luck with it!
