Grey the Dog Bug Report Thread

[jastey]

Post any issues or bugs you encounter here. Please do specify which mod version you use, which game you are on, which other mods you have installed (put your weidu.log into spoilers), and whether you are using an automated installer.

If you are using the EE Setup Tool for your installation I'm afraid I will not support bug reports.

Odd, but I had to manually install version 2 of Grey the Dog.  The executable couldn't find the tp2 file.

Edit:  The contents of the debug file...

WeiDU v 24600 Log

 C:\Users\Lauriel\Beamdog Library\BGEET\setup-c#greythedog1.exe
 version = 24600

** ERROR ** [SETUP-C#GREYTHEDOG1.TP2] not found.

Ahh, and now I see why...it was looking for setup...1.tp2 because that's the name of the executable, but that's not the name of the tp2 file.

I take it that Grey should be loaded after cdTweaks because it causes errors in cdTweaks where I haven't had them before.  I'm bad and uninstalled both before snagging the debug logs, however.

Anyway, I'll be swapping my install order...

Wow, no idea where the 1 came from ...

 

And I was hoping the error messages in v2 with regard to tweaks if tweaks is installed after are gone. Did you have some for v2?

Yes, I had to move its installation to after cdTweaks so I'd not get the errors.

Error log pls (I know you said you don't have them any moregrrmblmblm I thought that's fixed. )

I'm setting up my game again so thought I'd pass on the error message:

It happens again when installing BG-style weapon proficiencies.

Thanks! If you replace the C#GRTOO4.ITM in the c#greythedog/items folder with the one Angel attached here before installing Grey, it should work.

[Lauriel]

Now I'm getting the error on c#grtoo6.itm

EDIT: I tried loading DLTCEP to load and save it as a fix but I don't know how to use DLTCEP, obviously, since it wouldn't let me save the sucker ... not even SAVE AS.  Says I opened it read only.  So, I'm sad but stuck. 

EDIT2: I even tried to copy the fixed C#GRTOO4.ITM file to a new one and put in the changes required for C#GRTOO6.ITM in NI, but it still gave the same error.  That makes no sense to me at all, but there it is.

EDIT3: I figured out how to get DLTCEP to save files and it works now.  But don't shoot me if the items aren't exactly the same as the original because I went through a lot of iterations before getting to this point.

EDIT4 Every time I see those files I feel like saying, 'I am GROOT'

Thank you! I thought using existing items and changing them would work better, but there you go*.

 

 

*Yes, I know knowing what one is doing helps usually.

[jastey]

Update to v3, both fixed tooth enforcer integrated. Hope they stop giving issues!

So fyi, any time you switch between 7th party mode on grey, you get an extra set of the C#min5hp effects on every other party member.  So i welcome him back to the party, then make him 7th again, i get another set of 'protection from spell', 'protection from spell', and 'protection from opcode' all related to that resource on every party member in the party at the time of switch.

[jastey]

Weird, that's the first time I get that report - not saying that it can't be true.

Which game are you on?

[jastey]

And please, post your weidu.log. Just in case another mod made change s to spells in general.

Happy Easter!
