    All my mods are Wei-Du. The only one that might give problems is Tsujatha. They *are* installed in the 'correct' order - BG2 ToB, ToB patch, Baldurdash, a non-Wei-Du mod if any, Wei-Du mods. :rolleyes: If anyone can tell me *when* to install the BoM Pack, such as before such-and-such or always install Banter Packs *last*, etc., I will gladly reinstall.

    BoM shouldn't cause any conflicts with your game if you've installed it prior to visiting Waukeen's Promenade (Otherwise normal install order, as Kuemper descirbed it, applies). BoM won't affect Banter packs, NPC mods, etc. as it holds no banter to which banter packs add's dialogue, and holds no affilitation to any other mod.

    The only "possible" conflict I can see is Tsujatha and the banter pack/flirt pack. Does these add anything new to Tsujatha?

    Normally you would install the NPC's before installing banter packs and it's ilk.

    Not that I know of. Hmm. I'll take out Tsujatha and see what that does.

    EDIT: I uninstalled Tsujatha and tried again. Same problems as before. I did a clean install of everything (uninstalled, reinstalled the game with only ToB patch, Baldurdash, DBG and BoM Pack), even rebooting my computer.

    Created a gnome illusionist/thief and used DBG to get through. I kept Jaheira, Minsc, Yoshimo and Imoen. We got to the Promenade, Imoen was kidnapped and we trudged down to where Bion is. New problems. Bion has no name when I held the cursor over him. I still get the third dialogue option when first talking to him, then blank talk screen the second time. I clicked around to get him to teleport us to Tal. Okay, that worked. I walked to Tal and talked to him, getting the blank talk screen. I clicked around and got Jaheira's name. With nothing else there to see, I kept clicking at the top and Jaheira's name showed up three more times. Then Tal became his dragon form. Oops.

    I went back to the autosave and tried to get Bion to teleport us again. He did, only this time we appeared at the top fountain near that elf hater.

    Have you DLed the latest version of the mod, btw. I remember that autosave problem well enough, I know I fixed it...

    I think I'll have to try it out for myself, and see if I can figure out where (if any) the conflict appears.

    The version I d/l is this one. The date on the .exe file is 12/4/05. The readme says Version 1.1 beta.

    If what I d/l isn't the newest, then where can I find it?

    I will have to ponder some on this. I'll also try out some combos with those mods you have installed, Kuemper, and see if I can spot a compability issue.

    I have Banter Packs installed, and my BoM works just fine, so I don't think Banter affects it...

    But the order of install is key here, it seems Saber did it right and Kuemper (maybe) completely did it wrong?

    I installed it last in both run throughs. It's possible I don't have the current BoM pack, but that would mean the SP linkage isn't updated or something. It didn't work with the patch, Baldurdash, DBG and BoM in that order. It's weird because the original beta worked just fine with my mods, Tsujatha included. :skeptic:
