File Name: Quick Save Slots Tweaks
File Submitter: yellow hat elminster
File Submitted: 31 Mar 2016
File Category: BG:EE Mods

This mod lets you choose between having 1 to 4 different quick save slots in BGEE, SoD, BG2EE, IWDEE, and PSTEE. It is not compatible with EET.

 

You can install this mod as you would any other weidu mod. Just download its contents and place them in your games install folder (then run the exe).

 

Be sure you are installing the right component of the mod for your version of the game. If you do not have Siege of Dragonspear installed then do not install the "SoD" component. Similarly, if you have Siege of Dragonspear installed then be sure to not install anything in this mod that has to do with the non-SoD components.

Is there a way to use this with the Linux version of PSTEE?

There is but its not something I can do at the moment. In the meantime...

 

 

Go into k9quicksave -> 2DA

 

Open the folder of the game involved (PSTEE, IWDEE, etc)

 

Open either the 1,2,3, or 4 folders (depending upon how many saves you want)

 

Copy the savename.2DA file into your override folder (which should be where you installed the game). If there isn't an override folder then make one.

Should, yes.
It doesn't regard the game as a EET, but as a BG2EE, just like most other EET compatible mods should...

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.

It should, but is does not.

even if it would work, it should not be installed since it's badly coded (it overwrites savename.2da instead of patching the file) which breaks lines added to that file by other mods (including EET which appends BG:EE save slots there)

 

Just open savename.2da and change last column number in this line:

1        103050   7        1

or use this weidu code to patch the file for you (probably should work for all games since IIRC the quick save and auto save lines order is the same in all patch 2.5 EE games):

COPY_EXISTING ~SAVENAME.2DA~ ~override~
SET_2DA_ENTRY 1 3 4 "number_of_quick_saves"
SET_2DA_ENTRY 4 3 4 "number_of_auto_saves"
