Recently, while working on an object for IWD2, I noticed an error in NearInfinity, in the list of values associated with the opcode #402. It seems that you have taken the one from the opcode #290, but it turns out that it is slightly different, as we can check in the effects.src file, and as the IESDP also indicates.
It was when I wanted to create an object with the effect #402 that I realized this. The effect applied while the values entered (80 -> Near enemies | 86 Daytime) had to ensure that it did not apply! Indeed in the list of the Effects.src file, the values are different (80 -> not goblin | 86 not keg).

Thank you. I'll add a fix.

Btw, I have recently started coding again (after a prolonged time of absence). I'll probably publish a new version shortly.

New version: Improved Archer Kit v3.1

Changes in v3.1:

• Updated Russian translation (thanks JamesMaxwell)
• Fixed typos in ability descriptions

1. Are there any known mods which check if setup-bgtmusic.tp2 is installed? If there are, the alternative would be to package BGT with separate folders: bgt/bgt.tp2, bgt.ini and bgtmusic/bgtmusic.tp2, bgtmusic.ini.

 
A quick scan of my old BWS backup shows that 1PP High Quality Music for BGT contains a setup-bgtmusic.tp2 check. It's also mentioned in Revised Battles, but I don't think as a requirement check.

New version available: Golem Construction for Spellcasters v6.1

Changelog:

• Added Russian translation (thanks to Arkie).
