    [​IMG] When I installed the Flirt Packs, it did something very strange: it change the names and descriptions of all of the items in the game! What on earth just happen!? :confused: Has anyone else encountered this problem? I had to uninstall the Flirt Packs and reinstall my entire game to fix it. After doing that, anything went back to normal. Can anyone tell why this happened? I know that before I install the Flirt Packs, I had installed a Patch for the Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn game. Could the patch and the NPC Flirt Packs had conflicted with each other? :help:

    [​IMG] Did you have mods installed before you patched the game? Patches don't usually allow for mods so I'd recommend installing the patch before any mods if possible. Installing the flirt packs after the patch might have just got some things confused.

    If there were no other mods then I'm afraid I don't know what happened. Have you tried installing the patch and mods and get the same problem?

    A text string mix-up like that suggests an install problem.

    Either you installed a patch or a non-WeiDU mod after the Flirt Packs, or installed the Flirt Packs while the game or a game editor was running.

    You should reinstall: Official patch first (SoA patch if you're running SoA-only), then mods.

    Thank you both. I didn't have any other mods installed. I believe I had Shadow Keeper running when I installed the mod. That may have caused some problems. I'll see what happens. Well, I just installed the patch. I'll make some backups of my save files before I install the mod. Again, thank you both.
