hu? I have not done anything that would alter faces and voices. The only thing I did about mercs was to alter their starting gear, clothes and remvoing some "hated" notification. None of these would, for example, have Buns' face and voice appearing in game. Speech-files, in fact any sound files at all, aren't even part of the download. You said you wanted to make a fresh install because of the problems with maps. Did you do that, and can it be that you made something wrong then?

When you have Buns (JA merc) appearing in place of Henning (WF merc) I guess you did not install WF properly. In particular because until yesterday you didn't seem to have those problems: you had made into Miguel's cellar means you had been able to talk to Fatima.

Didn't know that case sensitivity can be a problem in Linux, but this would only apply to items' big pictures which can be "GUN", "Gun", or "gun". But the only thing would be that the respective weapons, or their icons, would not appear in game.
