Character dialogues and sounds completely screwed?

in Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear
Started out in Candlekeep yesterday. Characters sounds seem to be completely off. I even get voiced lines from characters that are not in the party (for example Jaheira lamenting Khalids death, although both are alive and out of the party). And when meeting up with Vic, it was actually Tiax voice who greeted me (imagine my surprise). Neera's introduction dialogue for completely off sync. And more... Anyone else experiencing this?

    If you have any mods installed on BG:EE and have BG:SoD Installed, there's every possibility this is what's doing it to you. There's another post out there with information on this but it has to do with the way the content gets put down on disk and what Weidu can and can't do right now.

    If your installations are 100% guaranteed to be nothing more that what's downloaded from the distribution source (i.e. you've visually inspected your game directory for files from past mods you've installed or you've JUST installed both games fresh from your distribution source 100% without overwriting anything previously installed) let us know.

    I assume you've tried rebooting your computer first? What OS? What Distribution Method (steam, gog, beamdog), and most importantly: Do you have any non-beamdog supplied files anywhere in your installation?

    Thanks!

    I have no mods whatsoever (although I do use EE:Keeper to change colors and a stat every now and then). To my override, I have only added a few portraits of the NPCs (for example to give Viconia her BG2 portrait) and two or three slightly changed items (for example Claw of Kazgaroth loosing it's blur effect after ten seconds). I have rebooted the computer but the problems persist.

    Neera often asks for "Tenser's floating bandage" although she's not even hurt, Tiax (still not in party) drops a line once in a while, and subtitles rarely corresponds to what people are actually saying. EDIT: This last one was actually Rasaad dropping his line "I will show you justice" when showing off in Nashkell but it was voiced by Tiax saying I am to dumb to live.

    Windows 10, installation through the Beamdog client.

    In every single fight, Kagain explains "This isn't worth dying for" and Neera suggests "we should run". This is starting to bring down my fighting moral... :-D Kagain also thinks "the gold grow" pretty much everywhere, and Vic seems to be constantly reminded of the underdark, even in plain sunlight and an open sky.

    I'm having the same issue, under 2.0 with SoD installed from Beamdog's launcher. No mods other than using EEkeeper to change stats of the main PC and adding the console debugger line to the baldur.lua. Other than that, it's a vanilla installation.

    @Astafas @mediocrepoet

    Can someone with this issue please post a saved game? I'm going to try to run a bit of BG.

    To be clear, you had Baldur's Gate EE installed, and then downloaded/installed SoD. You are then accessing BG:EE by opening BG:SoD and clicking the "Baldur's Gate" Icon down at the bottom in the initial campaign Select screen correct?

  • AstafasAstafas Member Posts: 448
    @Illydth That is correct.

    I have attached one save here (zipped).

    @Astafas: BTW What distribution do you happen to be using? Steam, GoG, or Beamdog? never mind, I see your answer above.
  • AstafasAstafas Member Posts: 448
    @Illydth Just let me know if you need anything else! :-)

    @Illydth

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try that and see whether that clears things up.

    @Illydth Deleting the 806.status and restarting the Beamdog client fixed it! (at least so far - all dialogs seem right now) Will come back if I encounter any further problem in this regard. Thanks a lot!! :-)

    @Illydth

    Deleting the status and restarting the client and verifying files seems to have cleared up my issue as well. All the barks and VOs that I noticed were messed up are corrected now from what I could tell with a few minutes of testing. Thanks again! :smiley:

    @mediocrepoet @Astafas :) Glad to hear I can provide some usefulness around here :)

    Good luck in the game, let us know how you feel about it!
