Wow responding to post that is a year and a half old. I no longer even have the Azure mod.

Perhaps the problem's solution interests others as well

Glad to see that you still visit its forum though

[aphantasm]

Actually I don't visit the forum. I had forgotten it even existed till the board emailed me about a response to this thread.

i know this is a very old form but i'm just finding these mods, i loved BG2 when i played it in the past and love druids, and would like to get this mod to work but i get the error message

Error: can not find Dialog.TLK in Dialog.TLK

can some one please help

[Hoppy]

Do you have the rar or zip archive extracted into the BGII folder?

[Seeker]

i have the zip in the directory and and i extracted it their I'm using the setup-Azure.exe file is that the rar one?

i just made a new character and found that i have the naturals ally class that i don't remember seeing before but I'm not seeing her in the grove on an old save game dose it have to be a new one?

[Valiant]

It´s simple - just extract all content that comes from Azure.zip into main Baldur´s Gate 2 folder. Then you´ll get one folder named Azure (with big A ) and the file Setup-Azure.exe. Those two MUST be placed in main game folder, not in some subfolder!!! And finally run Setup-Azure.exe file, command-line window will appear and from this moment just follow the instructions on the screen. I have just tested it and it works like a charm...

Good luck!!

EDIT: You won´t see her, if you´re using old savegame. Also you must be in Chapter 2 or 3 in order to meet her, even if you start a new game... And the nature ally class is added by Azure mod I believe...

OK if i have the class it might be working, its a cool looking class but I like shape shifting so I did not use it for my druid. I'll play the druid a bit and see, i had the Folder Azure is the main directory and the 2 things in that but if i don't find her on this new game I'll put them right into the directory not under the Azure folder, thanks for the help

[Seeker]

this is so frustrating of all the mods i found this is one i want to use the most and its the only one i can't install

i did what you said put them but thin the main directory and it got past the other error it fully installs the druid kit then asks if i want to install the NPC i hit i for install and it run and then gives me new errors

Parse Error at line 258 colum 8-167

and it stops the install and uninstalls it all

[Chaplain]

Have a look at this post (from this thread)

[Seeker]

Thank you for all you help and patience, it tells me it's successfully installed but Ive walk all over the grove and dose see her on a new game a made after I'm i missing some thing or where is she found in the grove

[Seeker]

I'm still not finding her in the grove, and don't know if it is still an installation problem or if she their and I'm just lost and blind, if every thing is right where is she in the grove?

[Seeker]

Ok, mod works i was playing my pal and and my sroc and she poped up but not when she is said too.

"She can be found in the Druid Grove area, but only if you are currently in Chapters 2 or 3 (from BETA v3 on). That means that if you left for Brynnlaw before taking her into the party, she'll be gone."

both pal and sroc had come back from spell hold and past chapter 3 and according to the read me she should not be their but she is and my druid is in chapter to before spell hold and she is not their, very odd but the mod is working juts have to figure out why its working oddly. i will investigate that more but it is working thanks for the help

[Seeker]

i did some experimenting and it seem you have to be in chapter 3 or later do get her

[Valiant]

Glad it works. Not exactly like it should, but still...

EDIT: I was doing my own research, too. And found the problem in a script that is appending AR1900 area script during instalation. Balduran forgot to correct the triggers.
If you take a look on the script named ar1900.baf (located in Azure/are/ folder in main game directory, open the file with e.g. NOTEPAD), you´ll find this:

CODE

IF
Global("AzureExists","AR1900",0)
Global("AzureFound","GLOBAL",0)
OR(2)
GlobalGT("Chapter","GLOBAL",2)
GlobalGT("Chapter","GLOBAL",3)

THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("AzureExists","GLOBAL",1)
CreateCreature("azure",[4935,1991],1)
END

....
(second block is not important...)
.....

...but it should look like this:

CODE

IF
Global("AzureExists","AR1900",0)
Global("AzureFound","GLOBAL",0)
OR(2)
Global("Chapter","GLOBAL",2)
Global("Chapter","GLOBAL",3)

THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("AzureExists","GLOBAL",1)
CreateCreature("azure",[4935,1991],1)
END

....
(second block is not important...)
.....

GlobalGT means that the variable MUST be greater than the value specified to be true (...in other words, Azure will pop up only if you´re currently in Chapter 3 or 4...). Global will correct this. So only thing you have to do is to uninstall the mod, change this two "words" in this particular file from Global GT to Global (...delete GT... ), save it, and install it again. Then it will work as it was originally intended (Azure will pop up in Chapter 2 or 3)....

Hope now you understand this...

ok that makes sense, the only hard part is finding it in the text, it would be better if she showed up in 2 but i might just get the 15000 pay the guy to get into chapter 3 then go about other stuff before going back to him, but thanks for telling saying how to fix it if i want too

[Valiant]

...find it in what text??... you mean mod readme??... of course it isn´t there, because it´s a bug...

If you didn´t mean the readme file, then I don´t know what text you are talking about....

And I guess you should fix it in your local instalation. Otherwise you will loose the whole Chapter 2 you could have spend with Azure...

[Seeker]

i thought it would be a long file i would have to look through i fixed that, this mod is still frustrating me though as much as i love druids and want to try having my druid and a romance with a druid other then jaheria, i feel that is weird and wrong she just lost her husband and she was like an aunt to you helping to raise you in the first one and now you start a romance with her, nooo, the story and character for this romancable druid is great but its just so full with flaws still i don't know how much more trouble this is worth i keep running into more and more problems, i don't know if this has to do with the install or not but when i have her in my party and we go to the dreams the game locks up and kicks me out when coming back out of the dreams, i worked around that for now with getting her after the first 3 dreams are over but after i have shero the wolf i can't rest, if hes in the party and i try to rest the whole game kicks me out to desktop.

Hello,

Sorry if this is a "necro-post" but it's relevant to the Azure mod, and concerns an install failure I haven't encountered in the past, nor has it been reported to the forum. This relates to Sharo's area-jumping script. Under Mac OS X, installing with Weidu 218 (weidu-mac), I get an error with the line in the .tp2 that says:

CODE

EXTEND_TOP_REGEXP ~ar[0-6].*bcs~ ~azure/append/sharojmp.baf~

The kit installs just fine, but the NPC does not, with the line as it is.

The error mentions that AR0500-BCS is not found in chitin.key, which makes sense to me, as the area file referenced should be AR0500.BCS. I haven't found how to correct this, but if I comment the line out in the .tp2, the mod installs successfully. As I'm a beginner as a modder, I've been unable to identify and correct the problem. My suspicion is that ~ar[0-6].*bcs~ should be coded differently, but I don't know how it would be changed, if at all, or if the real problem lies in another file somewhere.

If anyone knows how to solve this, I'd be most grateful for assistance, as I'd like the mod to function as intended. As it is, I'll be able to play with the mod in-game, but I'm concerned that Sharo won't behave as he should without a solution to this.

Thanks,
Eric

hi.
I'm quite looking forward to playing this mod but I've encountered a problem when i get azure. she can't equip anything at all except ammo and everytime i rest the game crashes to desktop. this only happened once i got azure. i thought that if i get sharo the problems would be fixed but it didn't make a difference. i tried travelling to outside of the druid grove but still the same problems. any advice? I don't want to have to get rid of her.
