I was trying to install many Weidu Mods over a Tortured Souls installation.

Many components of Tactics and the Improved Battles Mod reported problems while installing, due to the lack of the BARBARIAN line in the file KIT.IDS.
I asked Vlad, they altered the file as the original version seems to be buggy.
He pointed me to this thread

If I understand what Dyara says, the BARBARIAN line was removed as it was useless.
Could it be that WeiDU components were indeed using that, but with no real effect?

My final aim is to obtain compatibility with all of these mods, if the above if true maybe I could just let the installer complain and play as if nothing had happened...

Thx for any comments :)

EDIT: I understand it's not strictly WeiDU-related, but I think it could be interesting nonetheless..

Ever forward, my darling wind...

Based on Dyara's post, the IDS entries should be:

0X401E WILDMAGE
0X401F BARBARIAN

Whether they work correctly or not in that form is another matter.

Are you saying that I should add those lines manually?

So, if I get it right, the mods would install without complaining, no matter if the lines are actually useful or not?

thanx in advance :)

Ever forward, my darling wind...

Thx Aroc! If I get no replies the only thing I can do it’s try. Unfortunately I won’t be able to until I decide to reinstall everything again, it may take a while...

Ever forward, my darling wind...

No problem Littiz :D

I should finish NWN official campaign plus the Solafein mod on the NWN engine in about 1 month.

After that I shall install latest TS plus any mod available in the net and see how it goes!
