log in name: Linwood
char name: Caliye
I'm playing a BFM--35th lvl(25sorc/10rdd) and when I try to cast meteor swarm, I get this message "no uses or preparations left for that spell'. all my other spells work as they should but this one doesn't. I'm using the Burninator build from hgwiki...btw. any help would be appreciated.

Do you have a spells.2da file in your override directory?

Did you restart NWN entirely?

I've had this problem for a few weeks--since Caliye got the spell. I've shut down my whole computer numerous times...no change. I hope you can help.

Is the spell in your spellbook?
Silly question, I know, but my BFM recently dropped Shadow Shield to gain Greater Orb Of Fire, but when I rest the quickslot for shadow shield claims I have uses left for the spell. However, when I try to cast it I get the same error you are getting.

Yes it is. I even took it out of my spellbook--when I leveled-- and put it back in. Still no change.

i just tested your character on the dev server and had no problems casting meteor swarm. this suggests a problem on your end. so, a few ideas then:
most likely reason is still a modified spells.2da file in override, but since you removed it from there, it might be another rogue one in a different folder. we had problems with tlk files before that weren't in the right place either. once we even had a second nwn installation that had config files pointing to the first one and that screwed everything up. do a file search for "spells.2da" and see, if you can find one somewhere else. if you do, rename/remove it and try again.
if that doesn't help, it might be a modified hak containing the file, maybe a modified cep hak file from somewhere. if that is the case, try to get a clean one.
if you are using hg enhanced, make sure that it is up-to-date too. you can use the hge auto updater to do that for you - there is an option to also update cep with it, so you can use it for that too.

I installed enhanced (and updated it and cep) and now I actually get the cursor to target something but the spell is never cast. I've looked thoroughly thru my NWN files and cannot find any more spells.2da. that's my latest.
