Bugs Billy

Hi Ted

I wish I had good news for you but I don't . There is something still wrong with Billy. Just to make sure that I'm not doing something that may be contributing to the problem, allow me to explain how I am playing the game.
1.) When I load KoTB to start a new season, I alway click on "Clear Map Cache on Startup" or whatever it is ( the furthest bottom, right-hand check-box on the KoTB start-up screen)
2.) I always rest the party in the furnished room, usually for 8 hours, but occasionally "Until Morning"

Here is what happened with the various saves I just sent you ( I don't know if there is one save that is bad or not, so I am including all the saves that are related too, or just prior to the Billy fight ). I encountered Lady Maeri, and completed 2 of her quests. Needless to say, after getting ambushed enroute to the shrine, the party was not amused. Upon returning to the Keep, the party Terminated Lady Maeri [save: Lady M must die] ( You may wish to "flesh" her out some in the full module, as she didn't cast a single spell when I attacked her, there was no dialogue option to show her the note and accuse her of setting up the ambush, and there was no "reputation" or "investigation" by Keep authorities regarding her death ). At any rate, killing Maeri put every member of the party up to 3rd level (saved as 3rd Lvl Party). I rested for 8 hours in the furnished room after leveling up. Upon exiting the Inn the next morning, the guards were under attack, but there was no sign of Billy. I should point out that the Rottwieler that hangs out in the area was listed as a "mangy dog". I went into the tower, spoke with the Bailliff and went up to the top of the tower and out on the wall, and Billy was nowhere to be found, and the guards he was shooting at had disappeared. I went back into the tower and came back out, and still no Billy. I tried the "enter/leave the tower" trick 4 or 5 times before reloading the "3rd Lvl Party" save. I tried every dialogue option (reloading each time) with the Bailiff ( to see if the dialogue you chose might have something to do with the problem ) with no luck. I even had the Party Druid "talk" to the dog until it changed from "Mangy Dog" to "Savage Dog" while running to the Bailiffs Tower. No luck.
Now here's where it get's interesting. I reloaded "3rd Lvl Party" and exited the Inn (in the middle of the night), with the idea of turning the dog from "Mangy" to "Savage" before confronting Billy later in the day. Lo and behold: Billy was on the roof !! I ran to the Inn, spoke with the Bailiff, and proceeded to finish the quest. I used the dialogue option to get the +1 Arrows and the healing ointment, but I haven't received the ointment ( but I also haven' spoken with the scribe either ).

Hi Ted
Here is another little quirk for you. I honestly don't know if this is a bug in KoTB, or whether it is a bug in ToEE itself. My bard was doing some "creative financing" (aka "picking pockets") when I saw this.
The floatline says that the pickpocketing failed, but the dieroll box states "Sleight of Hand... Success" . Which statement is correct ??

->For the aracnophobia quest am I suppose to kill all the spiders in the forst in addition to the queen?

I tried to give back the Queen eggs.... then I killed him... But when I went to the guy in the town that sponsers the quest he still tries to tell me that I should go kill the spiders? is it intended?
--->I am not certain why while I was rescuing Shady in the jail if I got busted by someone and initiates the battle.... the dialog window would pop again and again starts a loop that I am not able to get out of..

 

I hired a mercenary, and she accompanied me through a few combats. After killing one of the corpsers in the swamp, she announced that she was leaving the party. [Did I run out of money or something?] Just as she announced that, another corpser attacked. She fired an arrow at it, and when it was dead she announced again that she was leaving, and disappeared. The problem is that now whenever I 'select all', there is an empry blue circle that follows me wherever I go, as if she was still there. If I vist the Inn in daylight, I have no problem, but if I go at night I get a CTD [probably because she should be at the Inn at night, but it thinks she's with me. If I fight anything, I get a CTD, probably because it can't figure out whether to roll initiative for her or not.
I know there's a console command to forcibly remove a follower, but I don't remember it--maybe that would work. I'll try to find that in a minute, but either way I thought I'd alert everyone that this can happen. I think I'll swear off mercenaries in the future.

In my other game, I killed the Mad Wizard, but when I try to report on the fate of the adventurers I don't have a dialogue option to tell him the Wizard's dead. He wants to send some bowmen with me to kill him. The quest is marked completed, but he won't introduce me to the Castellan for the final battle--I assume because he thinks I need to kill the Wizard. I tried going back to the Wizard's place and then returning to the Inn, but he still won't count the job as done.
[I got annoyed and killed every living thing in the entire Keep...but I didn't save that game. ]

Regards,
Ecthelion

 

For "Inn" read "pub"--I played too many games of ToEE.

 

Since it was a mercenary and not a real NPC, her portrait wouldn't appear anyway. Her portrait does still appear in my battle formation screen. Probably because she is a hanger-on and not a real NPC, the console command didn't banish her. [She doesn't cause a CTD if I attack 'green' NPCs, but one can only murder the Gypsy so many times before one gets the urge to adventure....

 

I recruited some new char from the board... then she died and I dismissed her from my party.. however when I am back in town her body is still with me...

The body would be gone when I travel to areas outside the town... but once I am back the body is back as well

EDIT: for the lizard folk quest after I killed their enemy and went back to talk to the lizard king...... even without any character that is able to speak to them the lizard king still would talk to us as normal ( My wizard got killed by the bad breath from their enemy)

 

Hi Ted
Here's another fun bug for you. I (finally) was contacted by the Thieves Guild, and accepted the first assignment. I sent the bard out to find the shady prisioner, leaving the rest of the party at the top of the stairs. I finally located him and went to talk to him. My bard actually walked through the locked celldoor !! I then talked with the prisioner. When I went to unlock the door ( from inside the cell no less ) it was noticed by a guard, who asked who gave me permission to be there. I opted to fight, at which point the game started continously looping to the dialogue "Halt ! By whose authority are you down here ? "

Great Kingdom emissaries" wow damn I must missed that quest... plzzzz enlight me how to get that quest started... I really want to explore this great mod all the way through... (I know its still a beta)

On the other note I cant seem to get the mad wizard to talk to me once I knocked into the room... I've tried this with both LC and LE parties
