Nevermind people, sorry to have wasted time! I found the thread in the OC area. Just call me a non-thorough Lord of Chaos!
I have a problem here - in the OC I'm stuck right now attempting to get the first shard. I get it, but the journal doesn't update and the cutscene with Bevil doesn't load - I go back to West Harbor and Daeghun does his berating for not finishing the quest. I've tried reloading several times from earlier saves.
I'm running NWN2 with MotB, version 1.10.1115. I know it's not the latest release (and I'll be told to update - doing it but even with a download manager on my dial up it'll take about a week, since as usual the updater has issues and I have to download the critical rebuild). My problem with this answer is that I've been past this point before when I didn't have MotB installed and the game worked fine. A system crash due to WinUpdate made me have to reinstall the whole OS and lose all my stuff.
I've checked the official forums, and there's a similar problem during a cutscene near the end, and a console command to open the dialogue box and advance was posted, but nothing on this one.
And for those who want specs on hardware - AMD Athlon ~2.01 GHz, 1GB RAM, nVidia GForce 7800GS 256MB, Creative SB Live! Value, WinXP Pro SP3, 174GB free space on dual HD config.
I hope there's someone here who can give some advice - if not, I'll just keep downloading. Thanks!
