Found bug? Oleff Quests (Tyr)

[Shade]

Archived from groups: alt.games.neverwinter-nights (More info?)

I've turned in and double-checked all of the items that Oleff should
need: the amulet, the Chronicles of Halueth Never, the Armor behind
the Swords of Never. Oleff even says 'Thank You' and that I was
invaluable (ala, nothing else is needed).

However, the journal says two artifacts have been delivered to Oleff
and that one is remaining.

Did I just find a bug? <sigh>

I remember some people having a problem with the quest in the early versions
of the game. Nothing in recent versions though.

AFAIK the scripts for this quest are a bit twisted, but free of errors. This
is obviously one of these rare bugs which appears sometimes, but only
happens once and therefor isn't reproducable. If you go back to a savegame
and repeat the whole sequence, the error will probably not appear again. One
reason I have in mind might be the distance you kept to Oleff while talking
to him. My idea is, if this is too long, the game will sometiems think that
the conversation was aborted and stops the execution of the associated
scripts.

Don't worry too much about it, though. Once you get to Chapter Two, your
journal is wiped clean (except for personal comments), so it's not like it
will plague you through the rest of the game.
