Unstoppable death in Spellhold Options

[ClefairyTorii]

Hail friends, I have once again hit another road block in my BG2 game.

I'm not exactly sure if this is a bug related to NeJ or related to TS, but for some reason when i get a pretty serious bug in Spellhold dungeon.

First off, there are 2 Imoens, but this really isn't too big of a problem and i've read other posts on the forum about this. However, for whatever reason, when i walk on the steps in that dungeon, i get a message from the Player Character saying that im missing someone, and can't continue. Then he dies, and i need to restart.

I'm assuming this "someone" is Imoen. I've tried inviting the thf/mage version, the charming rogue version, and ive even tried inviting both. Nothing works. On a side note, i can avoid this bug by ctrl+J. Sadly, its not really a fix.

When i finally meet Bodhi at the end of the dungeon my character turns into Slayer as per the story, but once he reverts back to normal, i always recieve the "you are missing someone" text, and die instantly after. I dont really see a way i can skip this part, as its pretty crucial to the story.

Has anyone else stumbled upon this problem? (on a side note, i completely finished TS, and it worked flawlessly.)

That is the exact line of text, and i did kick Hrothgar out before the end of NeJ. I did do all of NeJ in IC, and Halruaa before TS. Although, techincally i didn't finish Halruaa explained below.

Basically, right at the very end of Halruaa, right after i killed Ray Von, anytime i clicked to go back to Ulcaster the game would crash to desktop. (not really sure why, but i just assumed it was a random bug) Since this is techincally the end of NeJ part2, i just kicked Hrothgar out, and CLUA'd myself out of Halruaa (although if anyone knows the CLUA code for Ulcaster, i could try going back), and continued playing the regular game. I never went back to Ulcaster and thus never recieved any dialog from Tilorn, etc.

I'm not exactly sure why this only started happening in Spellhold though. On a side note, i did manage to find a way past this. Since my characters are pretty overpowered w/ all the extra xp, and gear, i could actually greater whirlwind bodhi to the floor and actually kill her before she has the slayer dialog. If Bodhi does not trigger her Slayer dialog, i wouldn't get the "you are missing someone" text after reverting back to normal.

However, this wasn't a fix since once i rest and have the "slayer dream" anytime i change into the slayer, the "you are missing someone dialog" would come up and kill my player char. I guess i could play w/o changing into the slayer, but i really like doing it on "big fights" just cuz i think its the role playing thing to do...

If this is a Hrothgar bug, any chance u guys know quick fix? Also, would uninstalling NeJ fix it? (since at this point, i pretty much finished all of NeJ/TS)

Thanks for the response!
