    Umm, what does this do? What does this fix? I had to uninstall the cool mod AB as it had very nasty bugs, such as not allowing my party to be exported and re-played in HoF difficulty. If this patch fixes it I will gladly re-install it.

    The Grog's Druid Tweak component didn't stop Fighter/Druids from wearing all metal armors
    The Grog's Druid Tweak component didn't allow Druid & F/D's to gain prof. with bows (the updated file wasn't copied to the override folder previously)

    I think there's 1 or 2 more, but I don't have my full notes with me ATM.


    Secondly, no one else has been unable to export their characters that I'm aware of. And I know for a fact that I've never had that problem. Did you install AB with non-compatible MODs? Did you get any error codes when you installed it?

    I did not install any other mod.

    I did not have error messages.

    My problem was, I finished the game with my party, I played through all HoW and ToTLM, (what a journey!) then I wanted to export my whole party, to a new HoF game. It worked, Hrothgar made his opening talk, and when the game was supposed to give me the control after he left, the game was frozen. Completely.

    I tried an all new party with HoF, it worked. I then modified the party, exported my old party, and as soon as game started it was frozen again.

    Why?

    I think some AB items and/or spells, abilities may be the cause. But I want to hear your idea.

    I had the same problem because my mvefile2.bif file was corrupted.

    If you can play a normal game with AB installed, you shouldn't have problems playing a HoF game with AB installed.

    What is mvefile2.bif? Why it is corrupted? Is AB to blame? Or is it completely innocent? I dunno.

    It is located in CD2/data folder. My CD got scratched, dunno what could be your problem. I doubt it is the file.
