               The first thing is probably to update your game to patch 1.69 (links at the NeverwinterNights.info players' page).

The Knower of Places has her own faction, so she shouldn't be too fussed by killing rats, etc.

I don't recall if the SP console commands can be used to re-neutral the reaction of a creature who has accidentally gone hostile. You can probably do it by logging into the saved game as a DM.

This can also be fixed via script. Download this script and drop the two files inside the zip archive into your override folder. Then, start the game and run the script from debug mode.

##DebugMode 1
##dm_setvarstring neutralfaction H5_KnowerofPlaces
##dm_runscript setfactionn
##DebugMode 0

After entering the second line, the pointer will change to target mode. Click on your PC and finish entering the other lines. That should change everyone in the Knower's faction to be neutral to everyone in your party.

               Hello
Thanks for reply
- I cant laod single player save game in DM client mode
- Loading this command in console did nothing
After: dm_runscript setfactionn
The console output is: SetFactionNeutral: Clearing faction for H5_KnowerofPlaces
but she still attacks me. I also update game to 1.69. I tried did this command before wnter to Knower of places, and when i was there.

Here is a video

               Thanks for the video. It makes it easier to see what's going on.

General note: It seems like your henchmen are already attacking the Knower before the console command is run. I would command them to follow peacefully (or leave them outside the area if possible) so that they (and the Knower) aren't in attack mode before doing anything else.

Regarding DM Client: You should be able to use the DM client on a single-player saved game. Keep in mind that you open the saved game in multiplayer mode and save it, but that won't prevent you from loading/playing it in SP mode later. Obviously, keep a copy of an unchanged saved game until this issue is resolved. Anyway, the process is basically: Open DM Client; click Multiplayer; Load Internet/LAN Game; pick the saved game; choose the DM character (any should work); and click play. You can use the chooser to jump to the Knower's area. Now I am not as familiar with what a DM can do in the standard game, but I am pretty sure he can make a creature nuetral or reset its faction. Maybe even one of the console commands (like

dm_setfactiondefender

) will work here. Anyway, try that and then save, quit, and reload in SP mode to see if it's changed.

Regarding the script: The script looks like it may have worked, but henchies attacking the Knower will make her hostile again. Get them to sit quietly and then run the script and see what happens. BTW, I think the script should run even when your PC is not yet in the Knower's area. And it should work while the game is paused, which may be helpful if she or the henchies insist on attacking while you try to run it, regardless of what you tell them

               Actually, regarding the DM Client approach, I may have left out a step since I haven't done that in a while. I forget if the SP loader let's you choose your PC when loading. At the end of the process, you may have to save the game from the DM Client, then restart the game in MP mode and load the saved game with your PC as the player and then save again before you can load normally in SP mode.

               Glad that worked. I was concerned that

dm_setfactiondefebder

wouldn't work in the SP game's console, but it's good to see that it does.

BTW, I sent you a PM.
