Jaheira won't come back

So I am playing BG2EE. I had Jaheira in my party and not romancing her. I did Xzar’s quest, and then Meronia came and took Jaheira from my party. She is supposed to return a few days later to ask me to go to the Harpers. The problem is, Jaheira never returned. Many days have passed and she just won’t come back. Is there a way I can trigger her return or is my game ruined?

Note from @Tresset: If you are having this issue then the following console code can be used to summon Jaheira to you wherever she may have gotten lost. 
C:Eval("MoveGlobalObject(\"Jaheira\",Player1)")

    Did you rest outside, like in the DeArnise keep outside area? That should do it.
  • MarkosMarkos Member Posts: 30
    Yes I have tried resting in many places, both outside areas and inns and nothing has happened. She just won't return. More than 20 game days have passed.

    Moving your thread to the Troubleshooting forum. I guess you might be able to spawn Jaheira using the console but I am not sure which version of her you would need.

    I have the same problem, I use a macbook. Can you see were she is?

    Thank you!

    She's next to the innkeeper in the tavern located at the current area, Umar Hills.

    Thank you so much Gate70 for helping me again! I found her and the quest continues as normal. This was so frustrating, thank you really really much!!

    You're welcome & I'll continue to locate her as required.

    For anyone familiar with NearInfinity you can use the open file -> external file option and navigate to the gam file of the affected save. She'll appear in the NPC section and viewing that will show the area code.

    I still don't understand why this happens - is she returning to the area where she originally left the party or a completely random area. Any insight into this would be appreciated in case we need to raise a bug report.

    Thanks

    I have the same problem - it may be a bug. She went right after Xar/monteron quest, I can't get her back.
    Maybe she is pissed off cos I chose Neera over her? ;-)
  • Gate70Gate70 Member, Developer Posts: 3,883
    Could you also attach the gam file associated with that sav file please @Tiberius85
  • Tiberius85Tiberius85 Member Posts: 3
    Thanks for your help. I went away for a few days and didn't check the forum. Im runnug EE with G3 tweakpack, if that helps.
  • Gate70Gate70 Member, Developer Posts: 3,883
    @Tiberius85 she's stood next to Samuel Thunderburp, Five Flagons Inn, Bridge district.
  • Tiberius85Tiberius85 Member Posts: 3
    Thanks, I've got her back now (as well as my gloves of ogre power). Any thoughts on way this happens?

    Can I locate sold weapons with nearinfinity? I can not find what store I sold my Carsomyr to? (In an old save)
  • Gate70Gate70 Member, Developer Posts: 3,883
    The below works, may be a quicker method.

    Use Ctrl/F
    Select the Items option
    Find the weapon you've lost
    Open in New Window
    Click Edit
    Click Find -> References, deselect all, reselect SAV and click Search

    Try not to have too many saves to search through, it affects time taken and number of results. You could temporarily move other saves elsewhere so you check a single save.

    Hopefully you should then be able to determine which result interests you.

    Same issue here, spent a good day in game trying to get her to spawn. No luck. :(
  • Gate70Gate70 Member, Developer Posts: 3,883
    Bridge District, Five Flagons, next to Samuel. Rule of thumb seems to be to check taverns when she goes.

    Could you zip and attach a save here please. Dropping a compressed file into the leave a comment box should suffice.
    Thanks
