Question to SCS code in Gavin v8 (and BG:EE compatibility)

[jastey]

Hello DavidW,

 

in Gavin (Bg1) v8, I find this SCS related code in the tp2. Is this still relevant (I think it is outdated), and if yes, for which games (Tutu / BGT / BG:EE)? Thank you in advance!

 

 

 

/* added to support SCS-style scripting - again, thank you DavidW - NB: used DavidW's code here verbatim to avoid conflict if both mods are installed */

I can tell you that the coding is out of date and it can break things, what should be done, is:

The reason why this is in your mod is because one of the scripts you use needs the new identifiers for it to be compile-able, the compatibility comes from both files containing the same structure and the marker file is there to show that this is done.

 

Of course you could just look at the scripts, or remove the code and see what script doesn't compile, and then find which line of those needs to be applied by your mod and just use that line of the above code without the marker, so it installs faster. As appending 130 lines of code could take a bit unnecessary waste of time.

Yes, switching to patching would be the thing I'd do in all cases (thank you for providing the code).

 

I am still interested in what this was changed into in the current SCS, and what I should do for BG:EE (if it is at all necessary to patch anything for BG:EE, as it should be quite perfect, already.)

[DavidW]

This is enormously outdated (it precedes even the release of SCSII). I now recall that Berelinde asked to borrow a chunk of SCS combat code.

 

Since Gavin is not itself a tactical mod, and since modern versions of SCS are perfectly capable of assigning new AI to people on the fly, I suggest doing the following:

 

(1) strip out all the SCS-related code from the main .tp2. (Lines 98-315 by the look of it).

(2) strip out all the combat scripting from gavin/quest/questbaf/b!bertra.baf and gavin/quest/questbaf/b!valer.baf, which I think are the only scripts that use SCS-originating content.

(3) give whatever cre files use those scripts (I assume b!bertra.cre and b!valer.cre) an appropriate one of the standard mage/priest combat scripts, e.g. mage9 and priest5.

 

If SCS is not installed, these creatures will fight in Gavin at vanilla-AI level. If it is installed (after Gavin) it'll detect the standard combat scripts on those creatures and upgrade them to SCS standard.

Thank you very much. Will do this for Gavin v9.
