    Okay, I will need more specific data, I guess.

    I couldn't find an error in the dialog code, but will look again.

    Can you give me the following info:

    1) When you go back to Oohlgrist to ask him to join you how many dialog options do you get? Can you please list them?

    I will work on this. I should be able to fix him, but I haven't worked with his dialog before and have to track down where all the flags/vars in his dialog are coming from... it will take some time maybe, but I am sure I can do it sooner or later.

    This is the dialogue after you dismiss Oohlgrist and then attempt to recruit again (n.b Oohlgrist's lines are audible).

    (Oohlgrist) [The big troll stirs and looks at you] What you want with Great Chief of Trolls?
    1. You offered to be my follower, remember?
    2. I have changed my mind, sir.

    Taking option 1, as 2 kills conversation gives:

    (Oohlgrist) Great Chief already joined a temple. Great Chief cannot follow you no more.
    1. Oh yeah, I convinced you to join the Water temple.

    (Oohlgrist) You leave Great Chief alone!
    1. Goodbye.

    Rogue is party leader with following skills (listing just in case as no 'skill options' appeared:
    Bluff 17, Diplomacy 21, Gather Info 17, Intimidate 19, Sense Motive 14.
    Charisma is 18 and level is 8.

    (I used the intimidate options to recruit Oohlgrist but haven't got a save anywhere before this to check exactly dialogue at this point).

    Fix for Oohlgirist

    Zebedee -

    Put this file in the scr folder

    Temple of Elemental Evil/data/scr

    The problem took some time to find, but it was EXTREMELY small. Just a case of "DUH" on Troika's part.

    Let me know if this solves the problem.

    Hmm that's odd

    Weird - that didn't fix it for me. Same problem.

    Apologies - that's my bad. I loaded wrong save game (was running the similar game where I hadn't recruited Oohlgrist in the first place and assumed fix was to reintimidate him again). Problem is, as BoogieMan says, still there. Not a gamebreaker though. Tired is stupid, so bed time for me.

    Apologies again for posting wrong info.

    My fix for Oohglist will only work on games in which Oohglist has never joined your party.

    Your other games are already screwed up.

    You can try this to fix your current game. If Oohglist has NOT joined the Water Temple then you can do this:

    open the console

    type: game.global_flags[112] = 0

    This should set it back so that Oohglist is not in the Water Temple and thus he will join your party... Once he joins a Temple he will no longer join your party.

    The problem with this script was that Troika made it so that every time Oohglist joined your party he would also join the Water Temple.

    That was causing the problem. I fixed it that doesn't happen. But if you already had him join then you can just set the flag back to 0.
