How can I get the CLUA Console on my Windows 7?

Fowler90

I've encountered a bug during my playthrough which has reset all my progress to the beginning of Chapter 2 ie. Gaelan Bayle's offer. From reading through the forums, it is my understanding that using the CLUA console can help me fix this problem. However I can't seem to get it started on my laptop. Any suggestions on how to get the CLUA console set up in my game?

You need to edit the initialisation (INI config) file. Baldur.ini. It is located in Documents\Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition\

Please note that you should not use Notepad. Use Wordpad or download Notepad++.

Once you open it, add this line:

'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1',
You can add it just under:

CREATE TABLE options ( section string, name string, value string ); INSERT INTO options ROWS (
So it should look something like:

CREATE TABLE options ( section string, name string, value string ); INSERT INTO options ROWS ( 'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1', 'Window', 'Full Screen', '0', 'MOVIES', 'INTRO', '1', [...]
In-game, you can then use CTRL+[Space] to bring up the console.
