Hello halidskialf

After I installed the v1.8 I recognised that the Government District is covered with the ? Fog of War ?. Is this intended ( Planar Sphere not entered yet)?

If you install the Planar Sphere Mod after the Kelsey (SOA) and / or Tsujantha Mod, both NPC will be overwritten and won?t appear. ( Kelsey in Gov. Dist. And Tsujantha just in the Planar Sphere entrance.

If you install the Planar Sphere Mod first and Kelsey ( SOA ) and Tsujantha Mod afterwards. Everything is ok.

I am not sure if there is a possibility to prevent an overwrite of the Area File with WEIMER install tool or maybe just a note in the Read me. Furthermore, if other mods are using those Area, I think the same will happen.

Cheers

That's quite odd because I've never had that problem, and the area script for AR1000 (Govt. District) is only appended to, not overwritten. I almost always install the PSM last as well, and haven't had it overwrite in error. *scratches head*
From the .tp2:

COPY_EXISTING ~AR1000.bcs~ ~Override/AR1000.bcs~
EXTEND_TOP    ~AR1000.bcs~  ~PlanarSphereMod/snip/sAR1000.baf~

Yes it uses the now superflous COPY_EXISTING but it was written a long time ago and shouldn't cause any problems.

The two blocks in the extention are quest specific for the PSM main quest and shouldn't interfere. On the slight offchance I can add a Continue() to the end of each block, just in case. Did you have this happen more than once or a single occurrance? Has anyone else had this?

I've used Kelsey and the Planar Sphere mod together without problems, Planar Sphere last.

Hi

I could duplicate the problems. Furthermore as mention in an other post, the top Furnace could not be used. When Lavok gives you the Planar Sphere and you reenter, Teos should appear. He does not.
So I deinstalled PSM to be able to finish the quests and to make Teos appear.

It is an ood, situation. Maybe the donwloaded File was not the correct Version? I used this link:

Thanks

Of couse I will reinstall it after I finished with Teos. It is just to good to miss it.

That's quite odd, as I haven't had that happen myself. However the Teos problem I think I can nail as it can happen throughout the game. Were your character(s) hasted or wearing boots of speed? The trigger in the PS is a very narrow one. Narrow triggers, whether trap or event, often fail to be triggered if a character moves quickly over them. The PS trigger is right near the entrance itself, before the first room. (Actually IIRC using ctrl 4 will highlight all in-area triggers in blue. Deactivate it the same.) PSM v1.8 is the latest and current one. (Minus a bugfix for XP on one single cutscene I haven't released yet. Expect a v1.8A patch soon.)

I did some testing on it and it is like this: The PSM Mod deactivates all Trigger from the original Planar Sphere.

No I know it and it seams to me I am the only one with this Problem, i just install PSM after I finish the original PS quests. The Kelsey bug is handled, by first enter the Gov. District and Install PSM after.
All quests in the PSM worked, though I haven't done the Main quest yet.

All those bugs should be fixed in the v1.9. There was a glitch in the recent package that resulted in some script overwrites. (They weren't in the older versions, just a copy/paste error.) Thanks for the patience.

"I did some testing on it and it is like this: The PSM Mod deactivates all Trigger from the original Planar Sphere."

Actually, I'm having the same problem.

I did ctrl+4 to find the triggers and I keep walking over them as best I can.

Best,

It's because of the script overwrites. Try downloading v1.9 and reinstall.
