#610458 List of problems

Posted by Miloch on 01 January 2021 - 11:12 PM in Mega Mod Help

You might want to attach the files your change-log generated, or you can do some of this yourself with an editor (DLTCEP or NearInfinity). For c-cs.itm, check the inventory icon. In my ancient BWP install, this file (ic-cs.bam) doesn't exist, so some other mod (or a later version to Deeper Shadows of Amn) may have added it. What you describe is a common issue; BAM Batcher in my signature has an option to fix such BAMs ("Fix inventory BAM coordinates"). Edit: you may want to do a change-log on that .bam file while you're at it too.

For telswd.itm (an item that exists in unmodded BG2), open the .itm files the change-log generates, look at the description string reference, and see at which point the description gets hosed, which should point you to the offending mod. My guess is Item Revisions (heh... old joke of mine... but your change-log does in fact list it among other mods that change the item).

 



#610427 List of problems

I suggest editing the original post to paste your .txt file text directly. You could use bracketed

Spoiler
tags to collapse it, but as it isn't all that much text, that isn't really necessary.

 

The advantage is that modders and search engines can thus pick up the potential problems and fixes more readily, and you can also provide links to specific mod forums. Unfinished Business (UB) at least is in semi-active development last I checked, so being able to identify any issues with it will benefit its modders and players.

 

Also note that sometimes trying to change one thing (especially concerning direct dialogue modifications in dialog.tlk) can mess up something elsewhere.

 

Finally, what I noted with Vlad's Compilation (VCV20) should fix at least some of those issues, particularly with respect to creatures with botched inventory/spell slots and the like. And as the modder seems to sort of be around, explicitly noting those things as well might help.




#609194 *tap* *tap* Is this thing on?

I'm not sure if I even heard of this mod, except that its author has good creds, but in the interest of historical mod research, I chanced across what appeared to be its website...

And then I thought maybe this is a larger thing. Is there truly no updating on the SHS website itself? I mean, like, none within a decade or more? :o

Glad to see you're still working on this. Not sure what you're looking for exactly, but you might try this: http://archive.wizar...d/frx/20050525x
