In Topic: Forum upgrade complete!

Yesterday, 12:28 AM

I still am getting the apostrophe problem on PM.
The exact send list I have tried is:

Quote

Recipient's Name: Lisandro
Other Recipients: Salk, Mephisto Satan Devil, hindo's doom, Isaya, ilot, prowler
If I shift hindo's doom to the very end of the Other Recipients list, the PM is sent.

Is it possible to externalize the list of portraits you can chose at character creation? It would be nice to be able to chose between mod-added portraits, too, without having to select "custom" and scroll through the list (especially the list for choosing the small portrait is quite small, in a corner of the screen)
Sure.

That sounds like a pretty huge overhaul. I will add to to-do list but don't expect it to occur any time soon. I'm still drowning in engine bug fixes at the moment.

hook71 is right.

For the record, if you use ANY of the mega-modification mods (Darkest Day, Shadows Over Soubar, Never Ending Journey, Tortured Souls, Big Picture, Region of Terror) with BGT, your query should go in the Mega Mod Help forum, REGARDLESS of whether you find a bug in the BGT part of the game or not.

In Topic: [COMPLETE] Externalise Item-Creature Exclusions

07 February 2012 - 03:01 AM

This is the revised hack.

-----740 Externalise Item-Creature Exclusions [M, X]
Externalises creature-specific item restrictions to ITEM_USE.2DA.

ITEM_USE.2DA
Description
[ROWNAME]: the resource name of the item that the item-creature restrictions apply to
USER: death variable/script name of creature (not case-sensitive)
STRREF#: the string reference to display in the inventory screen when the restriction indicated by the flag value of # applies
FLAG: bitfield indicating the type/s of restriction to apply

FLAG bits
bit 0 [1]: the item cannot be picked up from any slot of the creature (this overrides bits 3 and 4)
bit 1 [2]: the item can only be equipped by the creature (this is 'stackable', so multiple item entries with different creatures mean that each of the listed creatures can equip the item)
bit 2 [4]: no restrictions (this bit is reserved for GemRB)
bit 3 [8]: the item cannot be picked up from any equipped slot of the creature
bit 4 [16]: the item cannot be picked up from any inventory slot of the creature
bit 5 [32]: the item cannot be dropped into any equipped slot of the creature
bit 6 [64]: the item cannot be dropped into any inventory slot of the creature

For example,
	USER	STRREF	FLAG	STRREF2	STRREF4	STRREF8	STRREF16	STRREF32	STRREF64
MISC84	MINSC	10218	3	10218	-1	-1	-1	-1	-1

Item MISC84 cannot be picked up from any slot of "Minsc", and can only be equipped by "Minsc".

Options:
-0: disabled
-1: enabled

Note that this isn't quite the same as GemRB, in that if you use bit1, you should set STRREF2 rather than just using STRREF.
