Where is Alabarza? #58

Closed rubyFeedback closed 1 year ago

rubyFeedback commented 1 year ago

I re-installed the game a few days ago and skipped some mods; for instance I believe the old stronghold NPC mod is no longer necessary, as another mod handles that now (I think; at the least I can take over all strongholds and rule them with an iron fist \o/). I also omitted a few MODs and this time I am running through quite nicely. I also skipped installing that specific lich that occupies the area where the leprechaun etc... have their new hideout, and this allowed me to do the quest fine. I just defeated Poki or Peski (whatever the name was of the demon).

One oddity I have is that the main actor spasms about suddenly in the docks area, as if he were to talk about something or someone but never does. I don't think this is related to your mod at all, but I mention it - I think things bugged out when a quest with Paris (of another mod) didn't continue. Some interjections of other mods can cause issues, oddly enough. Anyway.

Long comment here, but I am now wondering where Alabarza is. It reads "we will find him at the troll mound", in the journal. However had, when I go there, after whacking down the Poki demon, Alabarza is not there. Perhaps some condition is not met. But, at any rate, perhaps the journal entry could clarify this a bit more? When I first read it, I thought an area west of the druid grove was meant on the world map. When I re-read it, the troll mound was meant (but ... outside, right?). This probably does not fit into the FAQ entry, but it's just feedback - as allows please feel free to proceed as you deem fit. I like that the mod focuses primarily on one NPC, rather than the strange mega-mods that modify so many things (unless you pay close attention to what they install; some mods create really huge issues to the game overall).

(It's also quite difficult to find high quality information on google search these days, so in-game documentation may be quite important as a consequence. I found tons of information on the beamdog forum but almost nothing when I tried different search strategies on google search, which I am 100% sure worked fine in the past. Google really worsened their search engine ... probably riding the AI wave ... but I digress)

Aha - found the ferret IN the mound. Perhaps the description can be adapted a bit to give a hint that we should also look into the mound.

From the description right now I thought it would be west of the druid region on the world map OR west of the troll mound entrance, both which didn't lead to anything. But now as I entered the troll mound I saw that ferret. Anyway this is a small issue, I will close this - don't want to spam you with issues on github. :)
