Alright, thanks!
I did choose Monokai color scheme for BCS scripts. But I never had any visibility issues before.
I switched to Default and now all's good.

Let's just hope Insomniator will be back to us in a near future to address your bug report, colo.
I'm also using the Multiplayer start in order to play a solo game with 6 generated characters so that was useful info in my case.

Hello, Insomniator!
I was doing some basic BGT testing this mornning with little more than ToBEx, ToBEx AfterLife and the BG2 Fixpack installed when I noticed something strange that I don't think happened before.
The message window reports the damage dealt or received twice. I have attached a screenshot showing this. Could it be that the latest version of ToBEx AfterLife has something to do with it?
I don't remember noticing that when I was testing 3 or 4 months ago and at the time the version of ToBEx AfterLife was 29.11, I think.
Thanks!

Hello, Insomniator!
From what I understand, you are telling me that we would need to remove the Maximum HP Bonus effect from spells if we use the new flags? And that this would only be possible for the original spells and not the one added by mods?
And there are other compatibility problems as well regarding the offset for the flags?
Well, I wish I could give you good answers and help but I would have no idea about what to do, really.
Sorry for wasting your time and thanks for your investigation.

Hi Insomniator!
Only recently I learned that the classic BG draining spells do not really work at all the way they are supposed to be. EE uses a series of flags for damage opcode 12 to make spells like Larloch's Minor Drain and Vampiric Touch work properly.
I was wondering if ToBEx AfterLife could add those flags too? I realize that probably I am asking for too much here but I thought it wouldn't hurt.
Thanks!

Weigo has been regularly posting updates about development, collecting feedback, and announcing releases at Gibberlings3 some time after SHS went down.
Perhaps he'll return to use this thread as main topic for the mod in the future.

Thanks for the update, weigo!
Could you tell us, out of curiosity, what makes some areas more annoying/difficult to patch than others?
Cheers!

weigo,
I asked before but you never said anything about it so I try again: TotoR said that the last BGGOEET already works fine on BGT if you apply the fixes he produced. I never got the chance to verify this but it would be smart to check it out before you work on your own version,
And BGGOEET has had its own github page for quite some time, maintained by ALIEN and the latest version there includes TotoR's fix.

Keep us updated with your progress and thanks a lot for fixing the BGT version!

Since I have to rework the night maps for the EET version anyway, I have now reworked the EET and BGT version together and both now use the same wed file of the EE version and we are rid of the graphics errors.

Hello, weigo!
Thanks for your effort to make this work for both EET and BGT. I am only interested in the latter and of course I will want to help. Unfortunately, when it comes to time available, this is not a very good period for me though. I expect to have much more free time in around 7-8 weeks' time. I know it's a lot but unfortunately my plate is full in the short period (mostly real life engagements but also some modding stuff).
Anyway TotoR above said that the current BGGOEET together with his minimaps fix provided a working solution.

Hello, skellytz!
Thanks for clarifying things about IA's #9000 component. If it's not too much of a hassle for you, I'd be grateful for a hotfix because a currently mandatory component being bugged is quite a critical problem in my opinion. I understand the hotfix doesn't actually turn this component into what you wish it was, but it'd a tangible improvement for users, especially considering that the issue was raised almost 13 years ago and is still present today.
Thanks!

Great!

I'm the author of Virtue v20 Alpha and if you happen to give it a try, I would be glad to have some feedback, khelban12.

skellytz,
while checking on the text, I happened to take a look at SW1H03 (the bastard sword Kondar) and I was wondering about two things:
1) It is described as a +1 weapon that is +3 against shapeshifters but when I look at the file's properties I see two .eff (DOPPHIT and LYCANHIT) that add a +2 bonus to THAC0 against 106 and 122. Shouldn't it also add 2 points of damage? In my BG1 installation I see in fact two additional eff. (DOPPDAM and LYCANDAM) that do exactly that.
2) The weapon does not seem to improve THAC0 or inflict any extra damage to every other creatures. Aren't a generic +1 THACO bonus and a generic +1 damage bonus missing here?
Thanks!

Thanks. Much appreciated.
One question: does Vampiric Touch really work the way it is described? I mean, the hit points loss from the target is actually transferred to the caster?
If I am not mistaken, the EE engine has introduced flags that would make spells like this and other similar ones (ex. Larloch's Minor Drain) really work as intended. I guess this is not the case for us?
