Laughing/talking book cases... Options

[larrienne]

I know Vlad is away but thought I'd post to see if anyone else sees the text when clicking on the bookcases in Lavallin's room:
(*Laughs*) A wise precaution in deed Lorien. (Lorien being CHARNAME/main character in my game).
Talking bookcases?!

Also on opening Lavallin's chest when searching for Bartlemy's ring, mages teleport in, attack the party and the following text appears:
*A Ring of Might.
I was not prepared for what I was to meet when I finally encountered Delrysia...etc...etc*
This chest should contain a letter for Bartlemy from Delrysia. Without this letter, the quest cannot be continued. Nor may any other quests as killing these mages turns the academy hostile towards my party
Please, I would like to know if anyone else has this happen so's I can eliminate the possibility of it being specific to my game. Thanks guys.

In my game, the bookcases give text when clicking on them, just like in the picture room. And yes, they made refferences to charname. I wondered about these also.


I found the letter in Lavillen's desk and did not have mages teleport in.

Two possible reasons my game is different than yours are:

1.When I played through Halruaa I did not have the cumulative patch (v60) installed, but rather the several individual patches(v50)

2.I found the Delrysia letter before I was "supposed" to, ie before talking to Bartlemy(right after Lavillin gives the quest). You have to move fast after Lavallin teleports away to do that.

P.S. Did the v60 patch work for anybody? The only post about it says it doesn't work.
