Fixes bugs in dialogue subtitles and conditions in Kaidan 2 by LivTempleton.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
This patch aims to fix subtitle errors as well as the conditions of lines that either never play or play at inappropriate times. The idea is to increase immersion and make the subtitles and conditions as clean as possible while also keeping it simple.

What this mod does:

  • Fixes conditions that cause some dialogue to never fire, including Companions commentary, a reaction to “I’m going to get some rest…” that was supposed to play if your character is a werewolf, a comment on Kaidan’s old campsite that doesn’t play if you have Realistic Water 2 installed, and several others.
  • Fixes conditions that cause some dialogue to play inappropriately, e.g. talking about the return of the dragons before Dragon Rising has been completed.
  • Edits subtitles to match exactly what Kaidan is saying. 
  • Edits punctuation errors, such as comma splices, in addition to occasionally changing punctuation to better match the pacing and tone of lines.
  • Slightly edits a few player dialogue options to decrease the chance of being forced to say something out of character.

What this mod does not do:

  • Add or remove lines, or reuse existing lines in different contexts.
  • Change or replace audio.
  • Change spelling and grammar in subtitles that already match what’s actually said in the audio. For example, Kaidan will sometimes say “Arncarno” rather than “Ancano” during the College questline, and the subtitles reflect this. These subtitles were left as-is.
  • Add, remove, or radically change player dialogue options.


Compatibility:

This patch was made for the most recent official version of Kaidan 2 (v2.1.1). Trying to use it with previous versions is not recommended. As it only edits dialogue, it should be compatible with any mod that doesn’t edit the same lines. 


Other notes:

01/26/24 - I am no longer maintaining this patch, nor do I currently have any future plans to take it up again. I don’t play with Kaidan enough anymore to make it worth it for me. You’re of course still welcome to continue using the patch and commenting here(please try to keep to the correct forum topics)—I’ll try to answer questions when I can. Permissions are still open. 

If you find any errors we missed or would like to suggest a change, your feedback is appreciated. See the respective forum topic for suggestions. Please be aware that I’m the main person maintaining the patch at present, and I’m very busy, so I can’t make any promises that I’ll get to your requests. However,
 I’m leaving permissions open to allow other users to use its changes and improve upon it. I just wanted to finally have this uploaded—it wasn't doing anyone much good sitting around in my files. 


We’re aware of the post-MQ dialogue that often doesn’t play when it’s supposed to and haven’t found a fix that doesn’t either require making edits beyond the scope of this patch or cause other unwanted consequences, so we’ve decided to leave it as-is for now.

Donation points are enabled, but 100% goes to Doctors Without Borders. I don't benefit financially from this mod in any way.

A huge thank you to AshildrFriis, whom this mod would not have happened without.

Thank you to NoahAlexis for doing an awesome job testing where I couldn’t.
