What were those bugs you mentioned recently regarding your mods?  Have you fixed them?

I don't remember which bugs you are talking about. There are some pretty major bugs in the 5E casting conversion mod. I believe I have fixed them all (and then some) and those fixes required modifications to, like, five other mods. (MnG, FnP, SoB, NPC_EE, and this one).  They will also require a change to CDTweaks, for which I'll have to set up a pull request.

The 5E changes require serious testing... I just don't have much time to do in-depth testing these days.  (If you - or anyone else! - have the time and inclination to run tests, I could send you the latest versions of everything.)

I have update my branch of the mod to version 0.9.12, with an updated version of the Revised Identify (just a bit more robust code) and an updated semi-spontaneous spellcasting function library, to work with version 0.8 of the 5E-style casting conversion mod.

The semi-spontaneous function library is shared by several of my mods. If you are using any 5E-style casting, you want to make sure you use the following mod versions (or later):

• 5E Casting v0.8
• Tome & Blood v0.9.12
• Faiths & Powers v0.79.26
• Might & Guile v4.12.1
• Scales of Balance v5.32

Cheers.

Having an issue with Tome & Blood and Faiths & Powers; my Sorcerer/Priest Kits don't seem able to cast 5th level spells. I can access every level in the casting menu BUT 5th level spells.

Tested with both Sorcerer/Feywarden of Corellon and Sorcerer/Lorekeeper of Oghma, neither one can cast 5th level spells.

Whoops. Forgot to add it's just Sorcerer spells, not Priest spells.

[subtledoctor]

That's... very weird.  I'll take a look at it.

[Guest RelentlessImp]

I've done a bit more testing; 6th level spells don't show up initially, but only after you reach 7th level casting, 2 levels later. 5th level spells continue to be missing all the way to level 30/30.

[Guest RelentlessImp]

And a bit slower testing; I'm actually acquiring Sorcerer spells based on the Priest level (gaining 9th level spells at Priest 18/Sorc 15). I've been testing it in both my IWDEE install and my BGEET install and it's identical; not sure what's going on at all.

Revised specialists make illusionists start talking about bringing people to justice and with spell casting effects around them for some reason when starting a new game in EET instals.

Note: I have only tested this with illusionist and conjurers so far.

Post your weidu.log files.

I've experienced the bugs I've mentioned in an install with ONLY Tome & Blood + Faiths & Powers + FnP Multiclass on a stock BGII:EE install, not sure if a weidu.log will help track down anything with the issues I've raised.

[Guest RelentlessImp]

Oh and Divine Remix v8, I forgot about that; install order was Divine Remix->Tome and Blood->Faiths & Powers->FnP Multiclass.

Okay, I can reproduce this... but I cannot explain it.  I leveled up a Sorcerer/Seeker of Oghma in BG2EE v2.5.16, and I was not getting my 5th- or 7th-level spells. And the 6th-level spells came late.

But, upon inspecting the character and the spells in NI, everything seems fine!  I can't see a problem anywhere - every part of the system that affects 5th-level spells looks the same as the parts of the system that affects 4th-level spells. And those work fine.

• The character has the appropriate proficiency modification to represent 5th-level spellcasting slots
• The "learn spell" spell for 5th-level spells looks fine
• The spell that makes your 5th-level spells appear under the casting button looks fine
• The op206 spell that gates my chosen 5th-level spell was properly stripped from the character

I'm a bit flabbergasted.  Gonna have to take some time to consider what I might be missing...

Is the Tome & Blood Sorcerer code replicated in FnP Multiclass anywhere? Could it be using a mismatched version in the underlying code?
