    I had this problem and this solved it for me:

    I had the same problem, Havarian not showing up. I found out: The Area Script (ar1600.bcs) of Brynnlaw does have an infinite loop if you kill Chremy before you have talked to Ginia, so the script cannot progress to spawning havarian.
    Solution is to type: C:SetGlobal("TalkedToGinia","GLOBAL",1)


    Quoted from the saemon-havarian-bug-spoiler thread.

    Where is that file on a mac and Thanks! i guess killing people is bad....

    Is not a file, but a console command. The command syntax with that C: can be misleading.

    same question, where do i type it in?

    Well, Chremy was not exactly a boon to society...

    Not familiar with MAC but you need to add a line to the .ini file. From the FAQ thread:


    Where are save games and the .ini located?

    ~/Documents/Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition


    Open the .ini in your favorite text editor and add the following line:
    'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1',
    Save the file.

    When you launch the game, press control-space to open the console. Once you have opened the console copy and paste the line:
    C:SetGlobal("TalkedToGinia","GLOBAL",1)

    Hopefully after all that, you will be good to go.

    I will say that enabling the console is very useful in its own right. There are a lot of times you will be grateful for having access to it. Just remember that with great power comes great responsibility ;)

    control-space doesn't work - still struggling here, i do appreciate all the help you are giving me
  • steelchasersteelchaser Member Posts: 72
    oh i did put the change in the BG "2" ee ini file
  • JLeeJLee Member Posts: 650
    Hmmm...I'm out with just my phone here, so I am a little limited. Ctrl + space should open a text box below the dialog window.

    The other way to do it is to install eekeeper and add it to the global variables tab.

    Add: TalkedToGinia with a value of 1

    Hope you can get it working!!

    This should work for Mac??? If so I will keep trying
  • steelchasersteelchaser Member Posts: 72
    Beats head against wall - Arghh!!!!
  • steelchasersteelchaser Member Posts: 72
    Is there anyone out there i can send a *.sav file to who would fix it and return it. Please.
  • JLeeJLee Member Posts: 650
    @steelchaser Please do attach a zip. I will fix it for you.
  • steelchasersteelchaser Member Posts: 72
    hope this works
  • JLeeJLee Member Posts: 650
    @steelchaser Try this. I need to run out for an hour, but I'll check back and see if it worked. Had to just spawn him.
  • steelchasersteelchaser Member Posts: 72
    It worked just fine. Took a while to get to where i could save. Thanks ever so much.
  • JLeeJLee Member Posts: 650
    You're welcome! Go tear the Underdark a new one for me ;)

    @steelchaser Make sure you put the debug mode line in the right place in the .ini file.

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

    It has to be in the options table.

    Sorry to hijack thread but kind of related.

    The horn and the mistress/lover are not in the house at night.
    Saemon is waiting at the ship and keeps asking for it, (we had the convo in the inn) only option would have been to take the portal.

    I abandoned that game anyway as I wasn't happy with the party, but any clues as to why this happened would be appreciated.
    But most especially what not to do to avoid the same again.
    Thankyou.
