My party members generally ignore my instructions, including just standing there while I get mauled. Like the monster they're killing will die and they'll just sit there. I set everyone to aggressive and put everyone's 1st tactic to attack the closest visible enemy and they still won't do anything. I'm a little disappointed, I figure a bioware game would have a more intuitive UI. Please help

if you've installed the toolset you need the "fix for strange issues..." in the Troubleshooting FAQ sticky

I did the default install. Does that include the toolset?

Have you tried pressing "H" or clicking the button below your party's portraits? Putting your party on hold not only prevents them from moving, it also prevents them from carrying out any tactics which involves moving.

Did you accidentally set everyone to Hold position? Under the character portraits on the left are two small buttons, one to select the whole party (looks like 4 circles in a diamond pattern), and the other to tell them to hold position (looks like a hand if they are holding, person walking if they are free to move around). The keyboard shortcuts for them is = for select whole party, and H to toggle Hold Position.

I checked that and I don't believe they're on hold. I've toggled it a lot and it doesn't seem to be helping. I also checked on the folders listed in the "fix strange problems" section and found those folders empty and I can't find a toolset anywhere. :\\

Yeah I just checked and they have the little running around symbol.

Surely someone else has had this problem and been able to fix it :\\ I've tried everything in the troubleshooting guide...

I have it. WHat I do is:
CIick H so they stand their post, so I go pick a fight. Once the enemies come sfter me and the brawl gets going, I have to click H again as if I wanted to get followed, until that happens, they attack. One more bug issue to be solved with a patch.

I have this same problem, particularly with warriors like Allistair or Oghren. Sometimes just one party member will stand there and do nothing. Every other party member will be going along just fine. This can't be the hold command because that affects all party members, and not just one. They will have the icon for an action next to their portrait, but they won't execute it.
I noticed this happened especially when they were trying to drink a health potion. When they get stuck on the health potion, I could select them and have them move around or order them to attack and they would be fine for a while. The countdown timer for the health potion would start, but they wouldn't actually drink the potion(no health gain).
It seems to happen more often in specific areas, or during certain encounters. I don't want to be too specific without spoilers. It seems more like a glitch in tactics/AI to me.

I have this too, but not constantly. I don't have the toolset. My party members all have instructions to attack whatever the controlled character is attacking. Yet, sometimes the melee characters will just stand around until I target something else, or the dog often comes running back to me before he realises he should attack something else. At other times they'll immediately switch to a new target.
As far as I can see, tactics are followed in turn, maybe in my case they're just hanging on one of them. For example I have my tank set up to activate threaten as soon as possible, and taunt whenever possible, maybe this can cause a hang? I don't have anything complicated set up apart from that though, I mostly micro-manage.

Interesting. I tried to go with the most simple set of instructions and just set everyone to attack anything and that didn't seem to do the trick. I do wonder though if it might have something to do with characters not being able to easily path to the nearest/targeted enemy.
