    I don't suppose anyone else has got to Verbobonc before Emridy meadows before.

    It appeared right after all the cutscenes played after I killed Zuggy.

    Oh, I'm not saying you did anything wrong @widardofodd far from it, the transition between the Zuggy battle and Verbobonc could have been handled better, it doesn't exactly flow well, similarly the slavers quest itself should have checked if Emridy Meadows was on your map already, and added it if it wasn't already added.

    I just meant that all of the players here make a point of getting Emridy Meadows done early because it unlocks the Masterwoek Weapons that Brother Smythe sells when you bring him the Giant's head.

    Sometimes you get the red circle for an area you cannot access yet. It seems to depend on how far you have gotten in the game PAST where you would normally gain access to the area:confused:

    #1: For the stairs icon just to the right of the City Hall entrance, behind the 2 locked doors: does this lead anywhere? I can "select" the stairs but nothing happens

    #2: Is there a console command to reset Senshock and have him appear in the shop?

    Hello. I've faced with the following bug related to "Narcing on the Scarlet Brotherhood" quest.

    1) Got the watch patrol murder quest from Darlia.
    2) Turned him in to the authorities (one of the Watch commanders).
    3) Talked to Darlia in jail
    4) 7+ days later got the random encounter with Scarlet Brotherhood members.

    The battle starts. Two turns after screen gets dark, weapons and armor are removed, etc..
    Then the rain starts and the dialog start is expected but it's not happening, Scarlet Brotherhood members are just standing around with no action. And I'm unable to initiate the proper dialog myself, so the monsters are not appearing, etc.

    Please advise if there is a way to get the dialog initiated.
    One time, when I did a few reloads to the point prior getting the encounter, I got everything as expected, but I lost the battle to monsters, so I wanna try the enconter again. I have no idea why it worked one time.

    @OccasionallyGood As the original author of this mod, I'd love to be able to help here obviously. However the mod has evolved a lot beyond the period of my involvement, and it bears little resemblance to the mod I made these days. It's become a much bigger and better part of the game which is great, but sadly I wouldn't even pretend to know what the cause of this issue is, or how to fix it.

    If you have a save that has worked previously, I would suggest you try launching the game and loading the save. If it fails, quit the game and try again until it does work.

    Thanks for the reply and huge thanks for giving us these cool ToEE exta hours of fun!

    Here is the workaround.
    The issue happens only when your party leader is unconscious before the start of the dialog.

    When the ambush ends on the second turn, first black screen appears.
    Then some of your PCs are getting unconscious state (sometimes it happens for all of them - in this case the game just ends but that's a rare case).
    At this point you're out of combat and have a couple of seconds before the second black screen. If your party leader got unconscious state, then use those couple of seconds to change your party leader by dragging portrait of any conscious PC to the 1st slot.
    That's it. Then after the second black screen the expected dialog starts with the PC dragged to the 1st slot.

    Just wondered if the O-Club has ever been incorporated? Don't see it.

    Verbobonc wasn't expanded beyond the Demons & Demigods quest, meaning no club.

    Yes. Most of town NPCs won't talk until you remove him from your party and there is no way to force them to talk.
    But if you're using Temple+ (which is highly recommended), then there is the way to change their behavior. Go to Temple+ Configuration -> House Rules -> General tab and activate the "Tolerant Townsfolk" option.

    It's not actually displayed on the World Map, but it's on the list, just click on the location name which is "Passage to Verbobonc".

    Temple+ can be downloaded from here: https://www.moddb.com/mods/temple1

    Not sure why the Passage to Verbobonc would be both visible and inoperative, I've never seen that happen before.
