Help! Chessboard doesn't spawn in Durlag's Tower labyrinth level 3!!

johntyl

I have completed all the tasks and killed all the creatures in all the challenges. I've scoured each area METICULOUSLY and yes I have killed everything (including the 3 invisible stalkers and burned the bitchy fission slime with fire and its definitely dead) but I am still not teleported to the chessboard, as I am told I should be. What have I not done or did wrongly?

The only thing I could think that might pose a problem is that I killed the fission slime and air aspect outside their homes (they followed my character out into the corridor) and hence the game perhaps did not register its death?? Also, I did the challenges in this order: Ice, Earth, Air, Fire.

Someone please advise! Thank you!

Are you using SCS? That's a known issue and you'll need a console code to trigger the event. I can't look it up right now though.

CLUAConsole:SetGlobal("DMWWFissionBurn","GLOBAL",1) solves the problem. ( C:SetGlobal("DMWWFissionBurn","GLOBAL",1) in BGEE)

If you kill the fission without fire you're stuck in the Durlag's Tower.

Yes, I am using SCS. How do you use the console code? Sorry, I am really noob at this.

I killed the fission with Imonen's fire arrows! Is that the console code? How do you apply that?

@johntyl C:\User\My Documents\Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition
Open up the Baldur.ini with a text editor. I suggest ConTEXT as its free and will also enable you to easily edit scripts too.

Add these lines 'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1', You can put it right at the top if you like

   
CREATE TABLE options (
	section string,
	name string,
	value string
);
INSERT INTO options ROWS (
	'Program Options',	'Debug Mode',	'1',

**NOTE** If you are having trouble getting Vista/7/8 to recognise or keep your changes... try either changing the system permissions on the INI file, or another method is to copy out the INI file to your desktop (or wherever), make your edits then save. Verify they are in there, then drop back into your Documents\Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition folder and 'replace' the existing one.

Start up your game and either create a new game or load a save. Hit Ctrl+Space
This will bring up a window where you need to type in the following:

Thanks, I am using Mac OS X Yosemite though and I bought the BGEE on steam, is the process similar?

Hudzy

You'll still have that file in wherever OS X puts user documents.

johntyl

thanks so much guys, I got it!:))

I'm getting this message when I try to do it

With the latest version of BGEE, you need to open Baldur.lua, not baldur.ini (you can delete baldur.ini if you still have it) and add this line:
SetPrivateProfileString('Program Options','Debug Mode','1')
instead of adding to the Option table.

Then, instead of typing
CLUAConsole:SetGlobal( ...
in the console, type
C:SetGlobal( ...

I'm having this issue with SCS and the chess room. What Do I have to do? I read about some comment before, but I couldn't understand how to just teleport myself to the right room

JustLeft

Did you try doing the rooms in a different order?

I recently did an SCS run and did Fire, Wyvern, Cold and Slime and worked no problems.

Aerakar

I have never gotten this to work with SCS no matter the room order, but I have heard of it working for others. I have always had to use the CLUAconsole command as discussed above.

Arthas

the code doesn't seem to work. Shouldn't I insert

C:SetGlobal("DMWWFissionBurn","GLOBAL",1

If I'm using BG:EE?

joluv

It looks like you're missing a right parenthesis there, @Arthas.

Arthas

I owe you one. Thank you

This doesn't work for me, I entered the console command correctly, it accepts the command, but still nothing happens

command I entered was C:SetGlobal("DMWWFissionBurn","GLOBAL",1)

edit: nm I had to go into the slime room again oops

Hi, first time poster. Where does the chessboard spawn? I went through the 4 areas, not knowing there's a chessboard, then into the green area that leads back to the start of the level. I killed the slimes with fireballs and fire arrows, so I should be fine on the account, and I'm using the enhanced edition. Please advise!

Aerakar

If you are using BGEE without the SCS mod, then you will need to defeat the 4 elemental bosses, 1 per elemental room. Then in the last room you should spawn to the chessboard after the final kill. This is as intended in the game

If you are using SCS something breaks the spawn, so you will need to use a console command while in one of the elemental rooms, with the correct command described above (again, after defeating all 4 bosses).
