I have some bad news folks

 

Ok, With the release of BWP Fixpack v13.0.4, I have officially taken over the BiG World Fixpack

 

Important links:

 

BWP Fixpack Official SHS Download

- The official place to get the officially latest version of the official BWP Fixpack, officially.

 

BWP Fixpack Git Repository

- The unofficial place to get the most up-to-date version of the BWP Fixpack (should be continuously updated while I'm around )

- This will always be at a higher version than the current official package of the BWPFixpack (for eg: If SHS has v13.0.4, git will have v13.0.5) This will show up in your BiG World Debug.txt when you run the fixpack

 

BWP Fixpack Update Tracker

- For non-git users, lets you see exactly what gets changed in each update (each commit is clickable and easily understandable: for example)

- For git users... meh

 

BWP Fixpack Unofficial Git Download

- For those who need the absolute latest fixes and changes applied by the BWP Fixpack.

- If something breaks if you use this, please do post and I'll gladly assist if possible. The git repo download may be unofficial but it's supposed to work

 

Fixes for the BWP Fixpack thread

- The place to find almost every fix in the BWP Fixpack (not the place to discuss why the fixpack errors out/how the fixpack sucks - do that in this thread )

 

Feel free to fork, pull, push, play and do other naughty things with the repository

 

My current objective is to audit everything in the _BWP Fixes.txt so most commits will reflect that (as well as any fixes that get added, updated, deprecated)

 

Problems, suggestions and absolute, blind rage - please direct it to a post in this thread. I'll do what I can

I still don't see anything bad at this... well, except the fact that you might get overworked on this, but that's your problem... not a bad news for the other folks.

Ouh, and congrats.

This isn't bad news like you said Lollorian this is great news.

[Fouinto]

Well, it's a good news ! but, is it officialy a good news ?

[Lollorian]

Shit I was afraid of this one!

 

I've added the --binary flag to the patch.exe cmd line. I'd be grateful if someone could test this out immediately (you'll need to download the latest master package)

[Lollorian]

Ok seems fairly simple Please try again.

 

Did a

$ git config --global core.autocrlf false

in my environment to preserve dem CRLFs

[Lollorian]

And done

 

I'd purged my local copy and git converted everything to have LFs like the remote copy. I had to find a local copy and revert everything back Sorry for this

[Kaeloree]

OH GOD

 

EVERYONE RUN FOR THE HILLS

 

Also, congratulations, I can't think of anyone better for the job

Hello Lollorian.

 

Your fix for The Undying mod in here was removed from BiG World Fixpack in v11.4 or v12 (not sure) when Solaufein said here that he was updating the mod.

 

But he hasn't updated the mod like he said. He seems to be too busy with BG:EE. Maybe that fix should remain in fixpack until he finally updates the mod.

[Lollorian]

Done

Just so you know, using .gitattributes is today the preferred way of handling conversion of newlines.

Hello Lollorian.

Well that is weird. On version 2.11 on my computer it is fixed but when I opened the TP2 file in my rar archive it still had the old names. For some reason it wasn't updated in the archive the last time I fixed this. Now it is.

[micbaldur]

Great thanks Solaufein for quick fix.

 

Glad that thing get sorted out.

 

@ Lollorian    You can now remove that fix from fixpack.

[Lollorian]

Um, Solaufein, you just made the mod copy some CRE files that aren't supplied in the mod In its current state, theUndying can't even be installed unfortunately.

 

The BWP Fixpack changes the block:

COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override~
   SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
   SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
   WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST1~
 
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override~
   SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
   SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
   WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST2~
 
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override~

to

COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override/CMGHOST1.CRE~
   SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
   SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
   WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST1~
 
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override/CMGHOST2.CRE~
   SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
   SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
   WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST2~
 
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST.CRE~ ~override/CMGHOST3.CRE~

You changed it into:

COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST1.CRE~ ~override~
  SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
  SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
  WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST1~
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST2.CRE~ ~override~
  SAY NAME1 ~Ghost~
  SAY NAME2 ~Ghost~
  WRITE_ASCII 0x280 ~CMGHOST2~
COPY ~TheUndying/cre/CMGHOST3.CRE~ ~override~

 

And those CMGHOSTX.CREs aren't present in the CRE folder in the mod

As far as I know, has already been a month since released a new hotfix for Item Revisions.
