expanded gMinion TP2 for Mega-Installations

Azazello · December 13, 2008

2013 Apr 19: Added section for aTweaks, PnP Undead component.

2009 Oct 31: Have updated the contents, as I forgot to add a marker file to indicate that SCS II is installed. Please let me know if there's a better filename to use.

Have also changed/added AI script names to catch other mods that may have modified the summons. As noted, this may be redundant coding so we'll just have to wait until an active mod-keeper comes along to update the coding.

As always, if you see anything that needs correcting or modifying, let us know!

The entire TP2 is attached in the Mega Mod Help forum at Spellhold Studios (SHS).

In this post, I will (try) to copy/paste just the changes I made, from the top of the TP2, downward.

I discovered that gMinion needs updating to consider Mega-Installations, otherwise you won't be able to control the summons using gMinion's AI (you might not be able to control them at all).

I used my older mega-install as a basis for this TP2, so I do encourage BiG World Project users to help expand this based on other mods. One example, did I use the correct SCS names for summons scripts?
