NWN: Chapter 2 Henchmen Quests (Spoilers)

[Ergophobia]

Ok, so here's the deal: I'm almost finished in Port Llask, and rounding off some things before moving out. One of those things is finishing those henchmen quests. I have already found a number of odd items, which gamebanshee confirms to be the six items I need for those quests. Three of my henchmen are no problem: Daelan, Boddyknock and Tomi gave me their upgraded items just fine.

Problem starts with the other three. I simply cannot get them to talk about the final part of their story. When talking to them, there simply isn't an option to talk about it.

What I suspect to be the problem, is that I temporarily stored the amulets and belt of those three in a box, in the barracks, to create some more inventory space. So probably the game has registered me as not having gained those items, and refuses to let me upgrade them. I have the items in my inventory now, though that doesn't help. The point is probably that they weren't when I leveled up.

My question is: is there any known way around this?

I wouldn't personally have thought that simply storing their original quest-reward items in a box would cause the henchmen quests to break. But I guess anything is possible, NwN has prooven quite buggy in strange places for many different people
Do you still have the tokens they give you as a sign of them working for you?

Do you have your game updated by the way?

Was using 1.64.8062, now updating to 1.67.8093

Let's see if that does anything...

Still have the tokens in my inventory, though it gets me wondering why I didn't store those along with the others.

Update: 1.67 didn't do much, really. My guess is that the damage was already done after my journal said 'henchman will talk about this more later, but only if you have traveled together enough in the past so she considers you a friend' or something similar.

Ah well, that'll teach me to drag quest items along until they've really become totally useless.

I managed to get all of the quest items for Chapter 1, but had no idea what they were for and after I lugged them around, they disappeared when I went to Chapter 2. Now I have some of the Ch. 2 items, but I can't get any of the henchmen - the two for whom I have contracts or any others - to talk about them. Is there any way to do this? Failing that, is there a hack program where I can flag them as having gotten the Ch.1 things in the first place? (Also one where I can adjust my skills/feats?)

You get the henchman quests by talking to the henchman enough in Chapter 1 (generally every time you level up). If you have not completed the first set of quests by the end of chapter 1, the items will disappear as those quests are now no longer available. You can only get a Chapter 2 henchman quest if you complete the corresponding Chapter 1 henchman quest. So even though you have found the items in Chapter 2, you will not be able to do the henchman quests as you didn't complete the first set of quests.
