    Need Help!!

    I have the BG1NPCSoA mod going. I have Xan in my party. When trying to finish the Unseeing Eye Quest, I killed the beholder, returned the Rift Device and when I approach Gaal, he starts to bellow to his faithful to not run and Xan interjects twice with "We are all doomed! Run while you still can!" and instantly turns red. I cannot dispel this malady. Killing and raising him does not fix it either. I found Xan's dialogue file in BG1SOA/7XXAN, I opened the mod files with Notepad and found the below concerning Gaal. Is there something I change to return Xan to a Blue status instead of red? He is my mage and one of the reasons for this run through(also trying out Alora, Yeslick and will p/u Ajantis in the Windspear Hills). Fyi...When Xan said the 1st statement below, nothing changed in his status. I am no modder, that's for sure, but I don't see anything that would change his staus inthe below. Another thing to note is that Gaal doesn't seem to turn Red after his dialogue though all of his guards do.:confused:

    Could this be as easy as changing a Global status in SK? Currently the Global Variables for XanGaalQuest-11, XanGaalEnemy23, GallJob are all listed as "1" in SK. The Global Variable for UnseeingEye is listed as "2".

    INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS GAAL 11 XanGaalQuest-11
    == 7XXANJ IF ~!StateCheck("7XXAN",CD_STATE_NOTVALID)!Dead("7XXAN") InParty("7XXAN")~ THEN
    ~I say that we run like the wind, out of these forsaken sewers and back to the surface streets.~ [xan5]
    END

    INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS GAAL 23 XanGaalEnemy23
    == 7XXANJ IF ~!StateCheck("7XXAN",CD_STATE_NOTVALID)InParty("7XXAN")~ THEN
    ~We're all doomed! Run while you still can!~ [xan1]
    END

    If nothing else get mentioned you could ctrlQ him after he goes red. That should put him in your party. Not sure if that could cause a problem later tough...

    This morning, after trying numerous fixes, I found that even though he was Red, I was still able to choose to remove him from the party. Then, as normal, he approached my PC and I told him to stay. He turned blue again and I was able to continue. I immediately went to the Temple of Helm to close out the quest, because I thought the quest would now be broken and I was able to do so. He seems to be working fine now. I tried everything but removing him from the party yesterday, which I wish I would of thought of that first...:o

    Sorry Blades. The problem here was a missing passback. Without the passback, all of Gaal's actions were transported to Xan as well. I saw your post at the Spellhold Studios and will be fixed. I think CMorgan did this at the Gibberling by adding another line to Gaal,,

    Code:
    INTERJECT_COPY_TRANS GAAL 23 XanGaalEnemy23
== 7XXANJ IF ~!StateCheck("7XXAN",CD_STATE_NOTVALID)InParty("7XXAN")~ THEN
~We're all doomed! Run while you still can!~ [xan1]
== GAAL IF ~!StateCheck("7XXAN",CD_STATE_NOTVALID)InParty("7XXAN")~ THEN ~Doomed is right! Attack them!~
END
    For future reference though, I now have my own sub-forum at the Chosen Of Mystra website.

    http://www.baldursgatemods.com/forums/index.php?board=133.0

    It'll probably be the best place to either reach me for a while and to post bugs that you may find. Thanks again for playing. :)

    Did you and Zireal ever connect on cross-mod stuff for his work on Khalid NPC for BG2? Those are basically the 2 mods I have been waiting for to be bug-free for a great gameplay.

    Also, is Yeslick fixed? Everytime I add him, I speak to the Dwarf in the City Gates about starting some quest with Yeslick getting some type of item to protect for the clan and it ends up in a dialogue cycle with no ending. Kind of makes Yeslick unusable.
