As per http://forums.pocket...?topic=26665.0. Do not trouble Macready with issues with this conversion. Support is available at this forum only.

--------------------------------------------
Hard Times version 2.4 (BGT version)
a mod by Macready (BGT conversion by Ascension64 via PCU)

This is the BGT version only. For the EasyTutu version, go to http://www.usoutpost31.com/hardtimes/

One thing that's always bothered me about Baldur's Gate is that even with everything that's going on within the game, the Sword Coast region doesn't really feel like it's in crisis. Sure, all of the commoners and townsfolk talk a good game about iron shortages and the like, but any time that you walk into a store, metal gear can be had for very reasonable prices. Even magical items are readily purchased in stores! And the problem of ubiquitous magic equipment is exacerbated by all of the freebies that the game throws at you early on (now made obvious by Throne of Bhaal's TAB key highlighting). You are supposed to feel like a sheltered kid thrust suddenly into a hostile world with only the clothes on his or her back, but with the easily obtainable "presents" to be had early in the going, you are empowered to afford the finer things in life before you've even reached the Friendly Arm for the first time.

Hard Times aims to address these issues.

That's a great addition!
Anyone with infos about when to install this in a heavy modded game, and its compatibility with Item Revisions? :)
All of the above must be considered totally IMHO.

Hi asc64,

BUG: the mod causes a crash to desktop when u face Greywolf in BG1.

In the tp2 at line 1152 u get:

WRITE_ASCII ("%itemsOffset%" + ("%counter%" * 0x14)) ~HALB02~ #8

It assigns an Halberd+1 but Greywolf has also a shield so that cause a CTD. It should be changed may be with a sword+1 or similar ...

Tired of the same boring spawned creatures u face in BG? Try BGSpawn

You'll need to show me which mod adds the shield. He has no shield in vanilla BGT nor EasyTutu.

Found: The Vault mod adds a shield to Greywolf. Currently the 2 mods are NOT compatible,

Another one ... i noticed all the stores in my installation (from Bonehill Mod) are completely messed up (just "?" items in the stores).

After a changelog only Hardtimes had touched them ... so i suspect something has happened. Could be something similar to this: http://forums.blackw...?showtopic=3077

How HT could touch that is beyond my skill i guess...

Another one :)

At line 914 i discovered a feature who prevent potions to be bought. That causes all potion cases to not work. May u please check Asc64 if that's correct?

Thanks, i really like the mod and the idea behind it, but so far it seems it caused some issues to me :P

Updated to version 2.1. This update should fix all of the above issues. The main reason was inflexible coding.

Oops, made a typo. The French translation and the version flag are the only changes to this new version.
