In my case, it is SCS component 5900 which fixes this secondary level though, but I run MIH E&Q before it. Yes, I found where @DavidW fixes this issue in SCS, and I will implement something similar. Thanks for helping track this one down! Quote Link to comment

Angel Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 11 minutes ago, Chitown Willie said: Also, XP values are off (and I've got XPMOD reducing by 50%): Nope, quite correct by P&P rules. A giant spider normally has 4+4 HD, making it a 5 HD creature (every 3 bonus HP adds one HD). It's poisonous (+2) and uses webs (unlisted attack form, +1), making it a 8 HD creature for determining XP (650). The modification at its default settings adds another 3 hd, pushing the total to 11 hd, which is worth 2000 xp. (DMG, page 69 or MC1-4, page 5). Quote Link to comment

You can actually see it in the mod, the logic for a giant spider for example is in general/spiders/patches/giant_spider.tph. There are similar files for most other creatures I patch. If you're adventurous you can even try changing them, but you're on your own there, I'm not going to write a big tutorial to it. ^^ Quote Link to comment
Angel Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 Alright, v5 of Encounters & Quests is available, which fixes a trio of big bugs that managed to sneak into the v4 version: - Spiders and other BG1 monsters are no longer given over a hundred HP. - The battle script for huecuva now compiles correctly without SCS present. - Several required additions to .ids files did not happen on some installations. - The readme has been updated with a few components that were missing descriptions. In addition, in this version it is once more possible to use Infinity Animations on old BG, although since I have no way to test this it is off by default. It can be enabled in the .ini file. This has no effect on EE, where any missing animations will simply be added. If you enable it you need Infinity Animations with at least the Icewind Dale animations. The exact animations used can be configured in the file mih_eq/shares/monsters/tables/animations.2da. Quote Link to comment

Endarire Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Spell Pack: Maybe it's my mod wad on 2.5 EET with EEex, but Evard's black tentacles were invisible! There was a black glob of spell effect that moved toward the spell's destination when cast by my Wild Mage (level 16), and I heard the spreading/exploding sound effect, and my character made saves vs. spell. I'm unsure what's wrong. Also, I can't target myself with Isaac's greater missile storm, even though I can self-target with shocking grasp.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KN_Z2QuJXJ3Ew8TcOsioVdiACFTrXoTz/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=105431936210541578735&rtpof=true&sd=true Thankee!

Bartimaeus Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) Sword Coast Stratagems' Smarter Dragons cannot install as a result of MIH's Revised Dragons. Restoring SPIN694.spl from the Revised Dragons' backup folder (which is my only mod besides SCS that modifies it) resolves the issue. The offending file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/07ttz58zavdu7dq/SPIN694.SPL.bak (remove .bak, I renamed it so I could restore the non-MIH one without overwriting) Edited November 6, 2021 by Bartimaeus Quote Link to comment
