    Hy all,
    I'm playing the 5.03 version and all is working great until I reached Belsoring the water temple high priest. It's simple there is no way I can get to talk to him. Normally he's the one who starts the dialogue but now he doesn't and neither of my PCs can talk to him even if I activite the "talk" option in the radial menu.
    I played half a game before upgrading to 5.03 and had completed a few Belsoring quests so obviously I have some kind of bug with the mod version.

    Any clue?
    Thanks

    Ok so I saw there have been reports of this kind of problem but not with 5.03 (I think I mistyped the name in my first search).
    Still I didn't really figure out how to solve it.
    I tried to go in only with my party leader (no NPCs), whith everybody wearing the water temple robe, or even without wearing it but it still made no difference. If I engage in combat equally the Behemot doesn't come to life so it must be this same bug that was mentioned before.

    I just noticed I'm playing v 5.0.0. It's at least what it says in the Front End widow before I launch the game. I have to admit I'm a bit lost in all this :questionm
    It's kind of a surprise as I was sure I had installed 5.0.3.
    Anyways, still trying to figure out how to solve this Belsoring issue.

    Please help whenever you have time and patience.

    Ok I've followed a previous thread saying this bug was due to a problem with 5.0.0 and that I should download a fix that's in CMF 5.0.1. So I actually downloaded 5.0.3 and unzipped it in my root folder for ToEE.
    However I can't check if it worked because now my saved game has been corrupted. Meaning I have to start a new game.

    Savonaroll -

    Cerulean has fixed the Belsornig and juggernaut Water Temple issues. You have two options:

    1. Download and install the 5.0.3 patch, which you can get here. Install it by extracting the .rar archive to your ToEE root directory, which by default is C:/Program Files/Atari/Temple of Elemental Evil. If you do this, you must start a new game.

    2. Download and install the 5.0.1 patch, which you can get here. Install it by extracting to the same ToEE root directory. If you do this, you probably won't have to start a new game (I don't think), but you will have to delete the .pyc files from your data/scr folder found in the ToEE directory. You will also have to go back to an older saved game from before you ever entered Belsornig's room in the Water Temple.

    Good luck.

    [edit]

    In reply to post #4: I assume you downloaded the 5.0.3 patch from the Cumulative Mods and Fixes thread. Forgive me for sounding antagonistic, but why did you install 5.0.3 while hoping to continue your current game when it says

    in the very post you got the patch from?

    At any rate, you could try installing 5.0.1 overtop your current install now, but you're probably better off just uninstalling everything and reinstalling the 5.0.0 base mod and the 5.0.1 patch. Move your saved games folder somewhere else and then return it after you've reinstalled, and you should be able to use your old saves.

    Hy Gaer,
    Thanks, yes I saw Cerulean's post on the subject. Sadly I chose option 1 and my game is gone. But it's ok I'm just going to start my 50th ToEE game, got used to this. Does'nt bother me so much. Really love it actually.
