I have a feeling that all I do lately is following you around on different forums to say another "than you" for another incredible mod So, here it is - a thousand thanks for your enormous work and "must have" mod to the great game!
Welcome to PPG! Glad it installed and worked for you. If you select your main character and click to talk to any of your companions, you'll get player-initiated dialogue options and conversations for them, too.
I always thought the fact that iwd didn't have any recruitable npcs with their story etc was its weakest point, it feels like having a party of robots in the normal game. I discovered this mod lately while thinking about trying to play this again with iwd:ee, and it really adds an incredible depth to the game, so congratulations, a really excellent work (well I am still at the beginning of the game, just reached the druid village, I finished the main quest once, but it was a very long time ago !).
