[HELP NEEDED] Proofreading Petsy Chattertone

31 January 2012 - 03:29 AM

Posted by: Lava

Details: I need a proofreader/writer/editor who is able to help me with a new romanceable character - Petsy Chattertone. As you know, I'm not native English speaker, so my mod needs some warm and tender touch ;) Mod was already checked a bit by Izzy and HighTimeRodeo, yet my friend Petsy may still need some correction here and there :) Izzy and HTR already did a lot for me, they are great, but sometimes it's hard to spot all mistakes I've made.

Amount of text: Something like 300 kb of text in .d files. There's also some text in Setup file + some journal entries.

Requirements: Fluent native English person. And you should be a bit patient, too :P One person already offered to help a bit, so I will try to split the work between few proofreaders/editors to make the work less overwhelmind :)

Please, I would like to release the mod finally. I suppose that would be first romance for short races, so maybe this mod will be a nice new thing for BG2 fans.

Best wishes
Lava

Congratulations!

ASSERTION FAILED problem

15 December 2011 - 06:35 AM

Hi. I've got a problem and I have no idea how to solve it.
I get this thing:
ASSERTION FAILED!
File: ChDimm.cpp
Line: 7641

Exp: pBiffHeader->dwFileType != mmioFOURCC('B', 'I', 'F', 'C')

Msg: d:\program files\black isle\baldurs gate 2012\cd2\DATA\AREA0700.BIF: attempted to use compressed BIF from CD, check free hard drive space
Run Debugger?
I read that I should use DLTCEP to decompress the BIF file, yet when I try to do so, I got error pop-out window saying "Decompression failed!"
Any idea what should I do?

1. Instroduction:

This rather small mod adds some dialogues for Valygar Corthala. Some may consider it a "mini-friendship". It includes 9 talks for SoA and 3 talks for ToB.
I decided to create the mod, because I felt there's something more about Valygar, that he's not telling us something... What's more, he surely deserves something more than 1 'while-adventuring' talk.
I tried to make the talks in character. I don't say it's perfect, but I did my best.

2. Installation:

As any WeiDU mod. Un-zip the archive to your Baldur's Gate directory and click Setup-LaValygar.exe

3. Components:

For now, there are 2 components - one adds the new talks (main component) and the second is a slightly changed portrait. The main change is similar to Miloch's changes (the armour colour). A minor change is making his eyes a bit bigger. However, most people won't probably realize that this kind of change took place. The last change is the new shade of the sky.

4. Credits:

Dialogues: Lava
Proofreading: Zyraen, Izzy
Portrait: Lava (inspired by Miloch, though)

I'd like to thank all those people who play my mods, and those who will give this small mod a chance. You're great guys!

5. Notes:

-Timered talks will fire after completing Planar Sphere quest
-In SoA there are 2 talks fired by location
-Don't expect all talks to appear in the same time. Some of them will appear after the Irenicus escape of Spellhold
-I have never used Valygar Romantique. If you use both my mod and VR, both paths will appear in the game. It may be a bit messy.

6. Version history:

December 2011 - v1.0:
