The description for SINGER bard kit claims that its bard song grants protection from fear starting from level 11.

It actually protects against Effect: Confusion instead (files SPCL543A.SPL - SPCL543J.SPL).

Also PLANAR DRUID gets 25% Fire Resistance instead of promised 50% (file SPCL379.SPL)

There seem to be an error when using G3 fixpack v1 and Rot 2.0 together. And RoT is causing it. It makes the scene when Irenicus comes in to torture the main character in the beginning, thus making it impossible to start a new game. All characters are idle, doing nothing. In Gibberlings forum, they said there is something with AR0602.bcs. If someone got a custom fix to this, please tell.

Please post both your AR0602.bcs and your weidu.log and i'll look at it. It's not RoT with Fixpack because mine works fine.

Also, have you tried starting a new game with just the Fixpack and RoT and the RoT update installed? Nevermind, I see it won't start anyway. A couple of questions for you.



1. Do you plan on installing BGT-WeiDU?

2. Is this the AR0602.bcs from your RoT over.bak directory?



Try the attached AR0602.bcs after you rename it of course.

Yes, i tried without fixpack. Worked fine then, and same with fixpack alone too. But together, no no >:

1.If i plan to install BGT-Weidu. Well, I don´t own Baldurs Gate 1 at the moment. Would it solve the problem somehow ?


2. No, from the Backup/0 directory, found two of those ar0602.bcs, but they were the same size and both in ROT directory.

Oh, another thing. I own Baldurs Gate 2 cd and expansion, but the Bg2 cd broke when a friend borrowed it, so im installing Bg2 on a ripped / copied .iso cd´s now, can that be the cause you think ?

I´ll try out your .bcs file now, thanks a thousands ;D

@ Urghhh - Here's your best bet to get this to work for you. Roll your uninstall back to just after you completed your 26498 patch. Then open up the BG2 Fixpack tp2 (It's in the BG2 Fixpack directory, not the SoA directory) with a text editor. Find the section that looks like this:

// remove pause-n-drop exploit to keep imported BG items

COPY_EXISTING ~ar0602.bcs~ ~override~ 

DECOMPILE_BCS_TO_BAF

REPLACE_TEXTUALLY ~HideGUI()~ ~ActionOverride(Player1,MakeUnselectable(2147483647)) HideGUI()~

REPLACE_TEXTUALLY ~ActionOverride(Player1,DestroyAllEquipment())~ ~ActionOverride(Player1,MakeUnselectable(0)) ActionOverride(Player1,DestroyAllEquipment())~

COMPILE_BAF_TO_BCS

BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_CHANGES

and make it look like this:

// remove pause-n-drop exploit to keep imported BG items 

//COPY_EXISTING ~ar0602.bcs~ ~override~

//DECOMPILE_BCS_TO_BAF

//REPLACE_TEXTUALLY ~HideGUI()~ ~ActionOverride(Player1,MakeUnselectable(2147483647)) HideGUI()~

//REPLACE_TEXTUALLY ~ActionOverride(Player1,DestroyAllEquipment())~ ~ActionOverride(Player1,MakeUnselectable(0)) ActionOverride(Player1,DestroyAllEquipment())~

//COMPILE_BAF_TO_BCS

//BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_CHANGES

Then re-install and your game should start properly.

Thanks alot mate, i´ll try it out and let you know how it goes.

[seanas]

Thanks alot mate, i´ll try it out and let you know how it goes.

the problem is explained, and a solution and workaround given, in this thread. if you've already got RoT installed, you need to open AR0602.bcs with a game editor (DLTCEP or NI) and remove "SetGlobal("NewGame","AR0602",1)" from the block added by RoT, such that it looks like this:

IF
	OnCreation()
	Global("EntJar1","AR0602",0)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		ClearAllActions()
		HideGUI()
		StartCutSceneMode()
		StartCutScene("EntJar1")
		SetGlobal("EntJar1","AR0602",1)
		Continue()
END

and then save and recompile yr edited AR0602.bcs. if you haven't yet installed RoT, or are in the process of re-installing, you can find a corrected version of tAR0602.BAF in this thread: download it, put it in yr ROTerror/SNIP/BAF folder (overwriting as necessary), and install RoT.

The attached BCS works fine in my ToB+RoT installation: I've put it into \override\ and everything is Ok with the new game. I just CAN't see any problem there.

[Urghhh]

Oddly enough, i don´t have any ar0602.bcs in my bg2/override folder, i´ll haxxor around and see what i can do about it.

Edited by Urghhh, 11 January 2007 - 10:47 AM.

[Urghhh]

Okey, i think i solved the problem now. After installing Rot i copied the ar0602.bcs from the backup/0 directory into the Bg2/Override. And it fired up as it should now. Thou there isn´t any cutscene from RoTerror >: It doesn´t matter to me, just as it isn´t a sign that RoT isn´t working as intended.

I just ran a new install with the fixes which place the RoT cutscene at the end of the New Game sequence from AR0602.bcs, and everything functions perfectly with the exception that after the cutscene finishes and CI reloads the GUI does not unhide automatically and I need to hit the "H" key to select anything.

[Azazello]

Well I finally got Mega Mod working (thanks azazello), but I just came across another freeze.

When exiting Irenicus's dungeon to Waukeen's Promenade, the RoT scene with Artemis and Jarlaxle gating Bruenor, Cattie-Brie and fatty out finishes then cutscenes, but then a new cutscene of the same room shows with just a guard and nothing happens. Does not continue or anything. Is there a known fix for this one?

Just found this solution in relation to another problem...

FIRST, remove the StartCutScene("cut01") line from entjc3.bcs, as King Diamond described.

NEXT, in TELE0700.bcs, RoT adds this block:

IF
Clicked([ANYONE])
Global("EntJC3","AR0603",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
ClearAllActions()
HideGUI()
StartCutSceneMode()
StartCutScene("EntJC3")
SetGlobal("EntJC3","AR0603",1)
Continue()
END

Change it to this:

IF
Clicked([ANYONE])
Global("EntJC3","AR0603",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
ClearAllActions()
HideGUI()
SetGlobal("EntJC3","AR0603",1)
StartCutSceneMode()
StartCutScene("EntJC3")
Continue()
END

Side issue, very minor:
To make the GUI come back automatically, add Unhide() to the last block in TELE0700.bcs:

IF
Clicked([ANYONE])
Range(LastTrigger,25)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SaveGame(0)
MultiPlayerSync()
FadeToColor([1.0],0)
TakePartyItem("MISC4E") // Energy Cells
TakePartyItem("MISC4G") // Portal Key
StartCutSceneMode()
StartCutScene("cut01")
UnhideGUI()
END

[erebusant]

I made the block at the end of my AR0602.bcs look like so:

IF
Global("EntJar1","AR0602",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
  ClearAllActions()
  SetGlobal("EntJar1","AR0602",1)
  HideGUI()
  StartCutSceneMode()
  StartCutScene("EntJar1")
  UnhideGUI()
END

This resolved the gui issue for me.
