Thanks for the explanation, I tried to download and installed 2.0 and load my game, but that's weird my party members are still doing nothing (they seems to toss some skills sometimes but never attack).

Did I do something wrong ? Do I have to deactivate 1.2 before installing 2.0 ? ; ;

1.2 should be gone once you installed 2.0.

Check that tactics are enabled, that you did not select all party members and that you they are able to move (they follow you).
Check if the addon is activated.

I tried again with some of my v1.2 savegame and had no problem, I can't reproduce your bug.
Make sure you installed correctly v2.0 (and not v2.0b) with daupdater and check if it is installed in game. The add on now have a description so you should be able to see if 2.0 is intalled or not.
Turn it ON and load your savegame.

Im having the same problem. I saw at12 and forgot why i hadnt installed it already , so i went ahead and did. Noticed it messed up one of my tactics so I turned it off and loaded. Of course next my AI completely died. So i d/led 2.0... its not working, everything is still dead AI.

Since my save was a quiksave, I turned on 2.0, reloaded save, re quiksaved (replacing old one) turned off 2.0 loaded, then turned back on and reloaded. Its not working =/

(edit)

ive just tried every combination known to man (loading/reloading/disabling/enabling) and i still cant play, theres no AI whatsoever. My chars will move into an attack formation (move command) then just stand there and take a beating.

Not sure what to do here other than to load a save thats hours back, which i really hope i dont have to do =/ (if that would even fix it)

I cannot reproduce the bug, even with saves made with 1.2. Do one of you have the toolset installed ?
What is the description of the add on in the downloadable content ?

There is no ways to have the spider queen bug with 2.0. If you have it, you are running old files.

Try to make a manual install of the mod to be sure :
Unzip AdvancedTactics20.dazip (rename in .zip). Open the folder named "content".
You faced to 2 folder : "addins" and "packages".
Go to "DocumentsBioWareDragon Age" and copy the content of the dazip folders "addins" and packages" in the same directory of "DocumentsBioWareDragon Age".
For each file you copy, you must replace the old one.

There is 3 .erf files and 1 .cif file.

I seem to have a problem with all my warrior classes taunt ability after installing the mod.

No matter what tactics I set for my warriors to taunt (eg. Hero attacked by melee or enemy clustered with 2 allies etc.) my warriors always try to taunt and freeze. The skill refuses to activate at all.

Any ideas?

[Emiko]

I do have the toolset installed (And the Single Player Folder it creates have been renamed to avoid the major issues it can produce).

The description of Advanced tactics 2.0 is "This addin fix various bugs in tactics system and improve party member behavior and AI.".

Personally, I can't tell if the Spider Queen is fixed or not, because I don't have save for it, but I trust on this. ^^
My problem here is that if I load any save where Advanced Tactics 1.2 was active without 1.2 my characters don't attack by themselves anymore even if 2.0 is installed.

So basicly :
If I deactivate 1.2 and force load a 1.2 save : Party members don't attack
If I have 1.2 installed, install 2.0 then load my 1.2 save :
Party members don't attack

It is weird that you can't reproduce it, I'm still searching what could be in cause but I really don't have any idea. ^^'

[anakin55]

If you can upload a zip with your savegame, I will take a look.

@phyxation
ok, i reproduced the bug and try to find what's wrong

@anakin55

its not the spider queen, its the bug from ver. 1.2 causing all AI to stop working still not being fixed by 2.0. I still cant play, im gonna try a manual install and see what files were copied.

oh... and ingame it says AdvantedTactics2.0

it seems that
Hero : being attacked by melee attack ----> Taunt
has never worked, with or without the mod. It is set that Hero is not a valid target for this condition in AI_TacticsCondition.xls.
I will add it.

And
Enemy : Clustered with 2 allies ----> Taunt
works fine for me, can you test with only this line in tactics ?
