Why is my Mage always trying to hide in the shadows??

The Ozzman · 06-08-2002, 01:20 AM

is this a bug in the game? He is a level 9 Necromancer imported from BG1.

sounds like a bug, try reinstalling the game. that might help

Before going sofar as to reinstall, try the official patch. Download it here.

Erm... in what way is he trying to do that?

And do you have the Staff of the Magi, by any chance?

I think you selected the wrong script ...
You can assign -scripts- to characters, this controls the way they react somewhat, you have aggresive, neutral and defensive scripts.. not sure, since i never use them.
Anywayz, there's also a thiefing-script, which makes your thief try to hide in shadows as often as possible ... kinda handy when you're a thief, but not so very when you're a mage [img]smile.gif[/img]

Just click on the head-icon, in-game . and select
" customize character ", its the same menu where you can select a
(N)PC's character info and such ...

Hope it helpz [img]smile.gif[/img]

remember the staff of magi turns you invis when you equipe it

daan · 06-09-2002, 03:23 PM

Lanthir, are you saying his mage got a Multiple Personality syndrom from the staff of Magi and now thinks he's a thief, because he can be invisible ?

My mage, wielding the SotM doesnt really try to hide in shadows all the time, so i dont think that's the problem ... hmmm, he does make weird squiky sounds sometimes, a little to much time being polymorhped into a squirrel i guess ...
