Bodhi error, can't take or leave her offer...

Remove all ads!

I just talked with Bohdi in the graveyard. She told me there is an alternative to the nefarious Shadow Thieves and gave me a price of 15K instead to find my friend. But the dialogue stops there and she now has nothing to say to me. I could not choose to take or leave her offer. Anyone know a CluaConsole
Global setting to take her offer?

I added the Tsuki mod(M/T) and you need to join Bohdi in order to add him to the party.

 

From looking at BODHI.DLG with NearInfinity, the following seems to be what happens when you choose to side with Bodhi:

• First of all, she will only initiate the conversation in which she tries to recruit you if all of the following conditions are met:
  
  Code:

  Global("BodhiAppear","GLOBAL",1)
  !Global("WorkingForAran","GLOBAL",1)
  !Class(Player1,THIEF)
  Global("BodhiMove","LOCALS",0)
  PartyGoldGT(14999)
  

  (So if you want to try the whole conversation again, resetting the BodhiAppear and BodhiMove variables to those values and re-entering the graveyard might work).

• Then, no matter what you say at first, she will say something ending in "Follow, please, and stay exactly in my step. You would...regret doing other."
  The dialog ends, your journal is updated ("Meeting with Valen's mistress."), and the following code is executed:
  
  Code:

  ClearAllActions()
  StartCutSceneMode()
  StartCutScene("Cut25a")

  In other words, the "Cut25a" cut-scene is triggered. Not sure how to find out what exactly it does (I'm still somewhat of a newbie with NearInfinity), but by the end of it you should find yourself at the entrance to Bodhi's lair, and talking to her.

• If (and only if) at this point her BodhiMove variable is set to 1, Bodhi continues her conversation of trying to recruit you and the variable is set to 2.

• After some back and forth, she says "I would offer an alternative. I would help you find your friend for...oh... 15,000 gold? It is a sizeable amount less than the Shadow Thieves have asked and, coincidentally, it is what you have now.", and you have the following response options:
  • "How do you know of my involvement with the Shadow Thieves, or even that they are Shadow Thieves?"
  • "You know an awful lot about me. Where have you learned all of this?"
  • "It sounds like you've been spying on me. Why should I trust you?"
  • "Sweet deal, but what do you gain? I am no fool! What is it you will take from me?"
  • "I don't care about my 'friend'. I want Irenicus for revenge and for what he can do for me!"
  Although Keldorn, Mazzy, Jaheira, Minsc, Valygar, Aerie, Anomen, Korgan or Yoshimo may interject if they're in the party (in which case I guess you won't get to answer yourself? Don't know...)
  Is this the point where it stopped working for you?

• After more back and forth, if you accept to side with her, she says: "Such confidence is admirable. Very well, this place is now open to you. It is a safe haven, and below there are friends of mine that will tend to your trading needs.", after which all entries titled "Aran's tasks to receive the Shadow Thieves' aid." - if any - are removed from your Journal.

• She then tells you that she now takes your gold, and that she has a task for you, namely robbing a supply shipment that is scheduled to arrive for the Shadow Thieves.
  At which point everyone in the party is given 36,750 XP and you loose the 15,000 gold.

• After some more back and forth, she says: "I leave you. When you have done as I have asked, you shall find me in the complex below. Simply enter through this door. Until then, farewell and good fortune."
  The dialog ends, and the following code is executed:
  
  Code:

  MoveToPointNoInterrupt([648.1028])
  Unlock("DOOR12")
  OpenDoor("DOOR12")
  SetGlobal("BodhiAppear","GLOBAL",2)
  SetGlobal("BodhiJob","GLOBAL",1)
  SetGlobal("WorkingForBodhi","GLOBAL",1)
  EscapeArea()

  So, if you set the BodhiAppear, BodhiJob and WorkingForBodhi variables to those values, and find a way to get around the locked door to her lair, you might be able to continue normally.

Caveats:

• I've got "Core Fixes" and "Game Text Update Light" from the BG2 Fixpack mod installed, so not sure if things will be exactly the same in the vanilla game.
• I did not check all potential dialog paths, for example the interjections from the party NPCs which temporarily lead to their respective dialog files and would be a pain to manually follow along with NearInfinity.

Hope this helps!

 

After she states GPC requirement, conversation ends, I do not get a response option. I just a dded a few mods, I am guessing the issue is from one of them. BG1NPC in SoA is a Beta, it could be the culprit. Iwill try to mess with some of the variables you listed. Thanks for the help!
