Hey there mm75 :cheers:

I'm on a nice little BWPExpert install and love those little encounters between areas now ^_^ Desert trolls, Minotaurs and Giant Stick Insects (got this one in a BoneHill area :lol:) all awesome and stuff :D

A minor peeve I have right now - after getting to level 7 with a full party - most area spawns (inside an area, not the travel spawns :P) seem to only spawn the 'Orc party group' (Elites, Archers, Priests and omgwtfbbw Mages)... and with SCS installed, those Orc mages (being level 12) get a truckload of nasty spells :o Chromatic Orbs that can kill, Teleport Fields, Lesser Globes of Invulnerability and that friggin Air Servant bastard that always goes invisible and seems to wanna backstab the shit out of Imoen :(

I'm guessing they weren't a problem in non-SCS installs (they only have basic spells in non-SCS installs) but can the quantity of mages in general in spawns be toned down please? :P I had my first Orc party spawn in the BoneHill areas (and I was like OK, sure they die :D) Then a few levels later, we have the Priests spawning with Mages and shit just goes down from there :crying:

For a randomly spawning group, 3 mages is probably overkill no? ^_^
(yes I play like a n00b so please bear with me :lol:)

"I am the smiley addict, yellow and round, this is my grin :D when I'm usually around :P.
When there's trouble brewing, see me post, cuz it's usually a wall o' yellow and your eyes are toast!!!"

Thanks Lollorian for your input.

Well, the only reasonable change to do is adding a SCS check and eventually apply some changes. I also got other feedbacks complaining about mages and SCS, but this is more due to SCS mage component than my mod. I know that it's difficult to handle 3 Orc mages with SCS installed, but ... this is my personal consideration: you can face orcs in the very wild area of the game, so that makes sense anyway, it's part of the mod to have challenges far from the civilized areas. This is also true with Sirines for example, they are really hard to fight with SCS installed. Also, "reload" is a big help, I know :P

I will consider applying some changes with SCS detection eventually, but that would take lot of time and currently i'm quite busy with work and RL. But SCS is really a nice mod so I would like to have my mod "balanced" with that installed as well. I hope to have stime to work on it in future.

mm75

PS: eventually I can have my own orc mages here so that I can tone down their levels and SCS won't be too much anymore ... ;)

@melkor: Re: This file has been reported as broken because: Archive corrupted (winrar).

 

I have this file and WinRar shows that there is an issue with it, but it extracts fine.  I will PM a good, error-free, repack to you if you want; though it will probably have a slightly different size to the original, so BWS for BWP may require a minor Mod.ini amendment as a result.

The archive is not corrupted. It is SHS downloads which is partially broken and does not let you download files correctly. I've reported that several times.

I've had no problems downloading from this forum. - I will try and find the man pages for the board (if open source; otherwise the manual) and see what the limitations are on downloading, - that, to me, is most likely where the problem lies.

I have a quick question please, I couldn't find an answer on these forums or though Google sorry.

 

If I start a game from BG1, after I kill Sarevok and I'm in Amn and I'm playing BG2, can I still return to all the Baldur's Gate 1 areas?

Something I've been meaning to post for some time:

 

Would it be possible that you offer the spawn component with some different options?

 

Namely:

- one option which will always give you the most difficult spawns = those normally reserved for a party of 6 with level 8 or higher party members

- another one, which will always give you the most difficult spawns for the level your highest leveled party member has = only those spawns normally reserved for a party of 6

Hey Melkor,

I think there is a incompatibility with the  SCS V24  component whitch realocated bounty hunter in folowing  random encounters area. :

AR 4700 4701 4800, 4801   4900   4901 5100 5101 5400

DavidW add these lines at the top of the script and I think it makes impossible for the script to read your lines :

IF
    Global("DMWWSpawnMolkar","GLOBAL",1)
THEN
    RESPONSE #100
        CreateCreature("drakar",[710.478],0) // Drakar
        CreateCreature("halaca",[569.592],0) // Halacan
        CreateCreature("morvin",[884.525],0) // Morvin
        CreateCreature("molkar",[824.684],0) // Molkar
        SetGlobal("DMWWSpawnMolkar","GLOBAL",0)
        SetGlobalTimer("DMWWSuppressRandoms","GLOBAL",FOUR_HOURS)
END

IF
    Global("DMWWSpawnLamalha","GLOBAL",1)
THEN
    RESPONSE #100
        CreateCreature("zeela",[710.478],0) // Zila
        CreateCreature("telka",[569.592],0) // Telka
        CreateCreature("maneir",[884.525],0) // Maneïra
        CreateCreature("lamalh",[824.684],0) // Lamalha
        SetGlobal("DMWWSpawnLamalha","GLOBAL",0)
        SetGlobalTimer("DMWWSuppressRandoms","GLOBAL",FOUR_HOURS)
END

IF
    GlobalTimerNotExpired("DMWWSuppressRandoms","GLOBAL")
THEN
    RESPONSE #100
        NoAction()
END

Thanks again for  for this amazing mod :new_thumbs:

Hi all,

 

being busy with RL ...

 

tx  DrAzTiK for the report, but I don't see why those lines should make BGSpawn incompatible ..... any more info please? Also I saw SCS is not at 24 version ...

 

@10th .... hmmm dunnow how to implement that honestly, as all the "random" chances have been "embedded" within the codes for the spawn. Too much a pain really sorry.

Well, in my current playtrough, your creatures only appears if I delete the SCS lines.  If I keep the   SCS lines, I encounter the vanilla creatures . (aka one dog)

I will try do do some more test.

Well, no need to test ! That's the purpose of the thing... you encounter the assassins... and for the next 4 hours, the randoms won't bother you as it might take some time to first kill the idiots and then rest... as it usually takes a rest to heal up the group and cast the best spells etc. DAH...

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

I meant the following with always most difficult:

Instead of
IF 
NumInParty(1)
      THEN
                Stuff
END
.
.
.
IF 
NumInParty(6)
      THEN
                Stuff
END
Only the spawn-blocks for NumInParty(6) are present - obviously without the NumInParty().

Take FW01231.baf for example:

instead of:

Spoiler

 

you'd have this:

 

Spoiler

 

which is the original NumInParty(6) script block, without NumInParty(6). And that for the whole script.
