Missing line between Ajantis & Dynaheir *no action*
I hope this is a bug, I hate flooding you people with meaningless threads.
CURRENT BEHAVIOUR: Using EasyTutu, one of the interparty spoken lines of Ajantis "You are a most beautiful lady miss" to Dynaheir is met with no response.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: Due to the fact that every other one of these one liner conversations get a reply, I wonder if this is a bug. No idea personally.
Better to be safe than missed I guess. :P

This isn't a priority, but do you know about this one?
in the interact.2da, it maps what soundset entires play.
It *looks* like Ajantis uses "special", which calls for no response (down 7, over 4). But I would check with @Miloch, as he rocks on the whole "restore the BG soundset materials to BG2 .cres" thing.
@Ward - poke away, man. If it bugs you, someone else probably is bugged to. If it doesn't get picked up in one wave of fixes, the community or the BG:EE folks or both will be trying to get it as right as can be gotten. If we weren't all a little tightly wound about getting stuff right, none of us would be messing about with a 14 year old game!
I've never had a real vanilla playthrough so how Dynaheir replies, if at all, I can't say. I thought it was best to let you all know, just in case there's some breakage. There might be a line Dynaheir didn't even say unmodded, that got pushed back through some fault. I always found it strange how she never replied, you'd think she would normally right?
I agree with Bhryaen, this isn't priority, but as long as there aren't a lot of things left to do then minor details like this may as well be checked out. It goes without saying we'll miss a few things, but there's not much chance we'll find them!
"Special" lines don't provoke responses. On the other hand, insults and compliments trigger the appropriate response_to_(insult|compliment) lines. So I'm not sure this is a bug - I don't think interact.2da got changed in Tutu AFAIK anyway. It *could* be changed to a compliment (change the 2da cell from s to c) in which case it could trigger "Thou art fluent in compliments. Some might say effluent." or "Thou art right indeed. After my own heart." (in other words, Dynaheir's response_to_compliment lines in her .cre file). But those don't really seem appropriate in my opinion. On one hand, she is rebuking him and on the other being a bit too smug, even for her. Also, you cannot pick particular responses - they will fire semi-randomly IIRC. So I wouldn't say there's action required here.
There is a component of DSotSC (currently in the BGT version) that makes soundsets and particularly interparty banter a bit more consistent. Not this particular line that I recall, but there probably are some actual bugs to be fixed in these, particularly when moving to the BG2 engine. As probably reported elsewhere the "rare selection" sounds need to be repositioned to work in the BG2 engine (unless they've fixed that code already).
