The Artisan Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I'd avoid level-scaling magic resistance because experience tables based on class is uneven unlike 3E. There's no reason a single-class drow thief should gain MR substantially faster than a fighter/mage. A flat 50% to match BG1 Viconia's seems like the right idea (her 65% in BG2 is completely silly).

tipun Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 Good. Received. I would be grateful for further corrections. But so far I do not see an opportunity to remove the icon from the portrait. But if I find something, I will immediately update. I will update by the evening. Not at home now. Quote Link to comment

The update will be a little later. Now I have some personal problems. But I will try to take into account all the suggestions. Edited December 27, 2020 by tipun Quote Link to comment
DavidW Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 The icon trick was the only way I found to display a subrace. You can disguise it as a clone of an icon the creature ought already to have (e.g. magic resistance) if you also give them immunity to the original icon. Quote Link to comment

I will try to do this. Quote Link to comment

jastey Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 @tipun Congrats to the mod release! I totally missed this. Is there a way to detect whether the PC is a drow via your mod? I'd need a check for my Solaufein mod. Quote Link to comment
tipun Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 Thanks. Here's how to say. I tried to make it as versatile as possible. But how did it happen. Officially, BG does not support subraces. I had to compromise. And only for Enhanced Edition versions of the game. If anything is needed, I can add changes based on your mod. Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 What I do currently is I detect the subrace mods, then install an additional script block which sets a variable in case the PC is Drow or Half-Drow. What I would need for your mod is how to detect this. Does a check for Race(Player1,Drow), Race(Player1,Half-Drow) work like for Corsymyr's BG:EE Subrace mod or would I need something else?

Necromanx2 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Odd, the download link says the file was last modified on 14Dec2020, but you say you updated on 14Jan2021. Quote Link to comment
Necromanx2 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Is there a recommended place in the install order for this? Quote Link to comment
tipun Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) I didn't do the DROW race on purpose. Since this will break the romances in the game. Drow is an ordinary elf. Just with effects that make him drow. The mod was created to select a subrace for the CHARNAME. Added subraces for Viconia, Baeloth, Korgan and Caelar. The check can be done using the local variable SUBRACE. I can make this variable for Solafain. And now he will be blind from some fire spells. Not all of them yet. But I am working on it. About the old file. It looks like google doesn't update the date if you replace the file. Edited February 7, 2021 by tipun Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 @tipun My Solaufein mod comes with an own kit. Feel free to offer a different drow kit for him but that was not what I was asking for. How would I check for the PC being drow or half-drow, exactly? Quote Link to comment
