    Basically after Gloomfrost after i got back to the barbarian camp during the fight i somehow got Hjollder mad at me. Unfortunatly i dont have any saves that are in HoW other than my quicksave (i know, i know.) I realize that i'm probobly not going to be able to finish HoW, but is there any way for me to get back to the main game at all. I'm desperate!

    Is it possibly to edit my save game to have me back in the main IWD area or anything?

    thankx

    Kuldahar's area code is 2100, so you can cheat to go there if things get to this.

    Awesome! Thats just the info i'm looking for. I think i'll be able to figure out the cheat stuff. Thankx m8

    [edit]

    ok, hmm i can't seem to figure out how to use that cheat. I've tried GETYOURCHEATON:Hans(2100); and it doesn't seem to do anything.

    Any hints?

    [edit]

    NeverMind i figured it out...

    GETYOURCHEATON:EnableCheatKeys();
    GETYOURCHEATON:MoveToArea("AR2100");

    I wonder why that cheat isn't in any of the cheat help files hosted on this site...

    Thankx allot for your help again.

    [​IMG] Uh... because the MoveToArea option never worked in Icewind Dale. How the hell did you get it to work? I tried it myself without HoW installed and it 100% didn't work then. I never bothered to check with HoW installed, but I assumed it doesn't work there either. This is the first time I hear about it actually working for someone.

    Interesting... I'll add it to the list of HoW cheats then. Maybe it's not HoW but patch related though. If someone had the time to to test if it works in IWD sans/with patch, then IWD+HoW, then IWD+HoW+patch, then IWD+HoW+ToTL... Though that's way too many combos for anyone to bother checking, I guess.

    Just to note if anyone else has a similar problem when I teleported back to Kulduhar Hjollder was there and not attacky anymore. He sent me to the last level of heart of winter to finish the expansion. I missed some experience from some of the little side quests that become active after the Barbarian camp but really I’m just glad I was able to continue at all!

    About the cheat:

    I seen it was posted as CHEATERSDOPROSPER:MoveToArea(“AR####”); but it only works with GETYOURCHEATON:MoveToArea(“AR####”);. Also you have to enable cheat shortcuts first.


    Thankx again for the help.

    Taluntain: i have IWD+HoW but not ToTL installed. Also i have soem mods and stuff installed.

    CHEATERSDOPROSPER is the IWD-only code to activate cheats, GETYOURCHEATON works with HOW installed.

    My guess is the cheat is introduced with HOW. If someone has it installed, maybe it's written in the "changes" part of the readme?

    I didn't change anything on SP yet, so it's not listed at CHEATERSDOPROSPER. And when it will be, it'll be listed in the HoW cheats, obviously...

    And no, adding back of this cheat is not mentioned in any notes, I checked. So we've got ourselves an undocumented feature added in. Pretty amazing it took so long for someone to discover it...
