(What's the spoiler/sblock command for this board?)
If you go to the "Preview" there is more options with buttons to format a message. Without it, you have to write the formats per hand.
I just tried and I think spoiler does not exist. 

For Finch and Hull: I could imagine they either didn't notice each other much, or she noticed him always yawning.  ;)

EDIT: I have no objections to crossmod about another mod NPC - making another NPC talk is the tricky part. I'd only ask that your NPC does not interrupt dialogues of the other NPC since they are usually quite personal moments.
For the first meeting like you planned, I think it's ok.

FORENOTE: This is for a BG1/EET mod in progress as of this writing to add Hull as a recruitable NPC around the time Imoen joins the party.  The dialog below all I had planned for Finch crossmod, but I'm taking suggestions for other BG1/BG2 crossmod talk.  (I assume Finch and Hull didn't talk much while in Candlekeep.)

-=Finch & Hull Interactions=-
MEETING FINCH FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before Initial Meeting with Finch
<Hull learns in toward you and whispers.>

She’s a shorty, but she’s trustworthy.  She’s a priest of some sort.  Not a thief at all,

What makes you say that?
HULL: She was in Candlekeep for awhile, kid.  I thought you noticed!

I don’t want another reminder of Candlekeep right now.  Let’s leave.
HULL: <Hull shrugs.>  <End Dialog>

If she’s a priest, then she’s worth talking to!
HULL: Lead on.

<End dialog with Hull.  Begin dialog with Finch.>

Post the crossmod you want to include here in a spoiler would be the first step if the authors can't be reached any more imho.

Greetings, Finch NPC makers & maintainers!

I ask you this now since I wasn't sure what permission I needed for a new NPC mod for minor cross mod stuff.  Specifically, this is to make mention to a party member that he saw her in Candlekeep and she's trustworthy.

I added Finch to my BG:EE run and am totally in love with her. The soundset is superb, the whole NPC is adorable! The only reason why I won't take her along in the future would be because I want more PC-NPC dialogues the mod is missing so she seems a bit "quiet".

Yes, her glasses not working is a known bug, caused by hardcoded engine restrictions about items with the spell Identify. A solution is being worked on by Angel.

I'm running Finch 6.0 in the latest BG:EE and I'm afraid the glasses are not working. I can't Identify from a scroll with things in Finch's inventory. even though the glasses have three charges.

Very belated, but: Does Finch work on BG:EE and with Siege of Dragonspear (assuming one has used modmerge to actually allow modding a BG1 installation with SOD at all?)

Would love to see a fully compatible BGT version of Finch (there's a number of banters that are known to misfire with the current BGT version) someday. As many folks have already said it's a superbly done NPC mod - she's as enjoyable as (if not even more so than) most of bioware's NPCs imho; the mod as a whole is very high quality.

I wish all NPC mods out there could take notes from her.

@ithildur, did you try this version: TESTERS NEEDED: Finch v4.0 BETA for Tutu, BG:EE and BGT!

I'm not aware of any banter misfiring on BGT, but just le me know in case I'm wrong, possibly with as much details as you can, and I will fix them.

I was modifying Finch's code to make use of the new macro HANDLE_AUDIO, when I've noticed that in Finch's audio subfolder there is also a copy of Imoen28.wav. This seems to be identical to the file already present in both BG:EE and Tutu, so I don't see any reason why it should be copied in override. There is a (maybe historical) reason for this file to be there ? Can I safely remove it ? Does anyone know ?

Edit: I just went ahead and deleted it.

Unfortunately, I have no idea about the portrait. Does anyone else?

The only chance would be if Bons has it stashed away on a drive somewhere. We're not really in much contact these days, but I've attempted to reach her.
