Contingency/Trigger/Sequencer BUG

in Troubleshooting
Hello everyone, long time since I logged here :)
I am currently playing BG:EE 1 & 2 with a friend and I found a bug I can't seem to squash.
We're in BG2:EE atm and I found that I cannot select spells while in contingency or spell trigger/sequencer window.
Our game has some mods but I run them many times even in EE without problems of sort.
In the current screenshot nothing happens after I select a spell a click Memorize:
Any idea how to fix it? (the spwiXXX.spl files are untouched, in case you're wondering)

    I just checked on an old BG2:EE folder (v 2.3.67.3) and there it works as intended.

    This may be a stupid question, but does your sorcerer have any uses left per day of those spells? Also, could you upload your save file?

    Any UI mods? The UI for the contingency/sequencer section changed from v.2.3 to v2.5, and would display the issue you are having if such a mod did not take those changes into account.

    Hehe... Yes I had spells, else they wouldn't show up. Also, it is a T/M (not that it changes anything)
    The save has nothing to do unfortunately: the same save shows a problem if I load it with the v2.5 but works in v2.3.

    Ah! That must be it! I actually don't have any mod that changes UI, but that must be the problem.
    Do you happen to know which file changes the contingency/sequencer UI?

    The file to look for in the override folder is "UI.MENU", if it doesn't exist there then the issue is something else.

    I'm kinda sure it has to be some file in the "data" folder tho
    No, it's not T_T
    After some tests I found out the problem is in the Baldur.exe.
    If I switch the v2.5 file with its v2.3 older version all contingencies, spell triggers/sequencers work.

    Sounds like you'd need to completely reinstall the game.

    Too much of a hassle, unfortunately.
    I was so crazy to fix every broken .itm, .spl, .dlg from TDD and planar sphere mod, on top of Tactics, SCS, RR, UB and some other mods.
    A fresh install would mean re-modify the dialog.tlk once again, not just importing the stuff in override.
    I'll keep the v2.3.x Baldur.exe with the new data and share the whole folder with my friend so that there are no conflicts.

    Thanks for help tho!
