traify problem

[Kitanna]

I just realized I never ran traify on Calin so, I was just finishing that when I got this trying to do the TP2.

[calin.tp2] PARSE ERROR at line 3 column 1-6
Near Text: README
        syntax error
ERROR: problem tra-ifying file [calin.tp2]: Parsing.Parse_error

BACKUP ~Calin/backup~
AUTHOR ~Kitanna (kitannadk@yahoo.com)~
README ~Calin/readme-Calin.txt~
VERSION ~v1.7~

looks right to me, so?

Which characters do you use the the .tp2 file ? Aka, when you open it with Notepad++, does the "Encoding" say "UTF-8". And you are sure the file is called that and not newtext.txt or some such thing. I also reported the other dublicate thread.

I have it in the order Backup - author - version - readme.

sorry about the duplicate thread, didn't notice until now.  The hazard of one of my dogs jumping up in my lap unexpectedly.  Thanks Jastey, I'll try that.  Oh, someone said Calin was causing them issues so, I installed it with Navarra since I'm testing her anyway. And, though I did a clean install first, Calin is doing weird things and his name changed to Blade Master. When Navarra isn't installed, he is fine.  It isn't crossed strings on a clean install? I don't know they seem incompatible together?

That's very weird. Unless the Navarra mod explicietly touches Calin's files or changes String references in the dialog.tlk, this shouldn't happen. Did you always start a new game for checking?

[Jarno Mikkola]

Also having the BG1EE's DLC without the DLCmerger could result in bad dialog.tlk string referenses in mods instaled afterwards.

 @jasteyI have to, you have to start a new game to get calin. If they have a ICT in the same place, could that do it? I noticed  they have 2

 

@Jarno MikkolaI don't test with EE nor have I ever played it. BG2 isn't even on the same hard drive as EE so that can't be it

Not really, this will give every NPC an interjection but it shouldn't change Calin's name or replace his text.

[Kitanna]

I didnt think so, grasping at straws trying to figure out what's going on.

[Kitanna]

maybe he's EE only now?

[jastey]

To help with debugging, we'd need more detailed info about what exactly is going wrong. I don't have much time currently, or I would offer to have a look at the mods myself.

[Kitanna]

When in combat, he is repeating.. I am happy to be a part of this group..  and his name changed to blade master.  It's not top priority at the moment, I am trying to re-write Navarra's PID/flirts as they are on my dead computer as well as writing banters.  But I hope that little helps. If not, I'll worry about it when I'm not so busy. No one else will be affected by it, after all.

And thank you Jastey

[jastey]

Maybe check Namarra for copy&paste errors. Like, some reference to Calin's files slipped into Namarra's tp2 or something. (Don't ask how many times this happened to me.)

[Kitanna]

I will do that right now.  thank you

The only thing I found was certainly because of copy/paste .. they both say the same thing for happy. I must have over looked it.  But nothing about Calin specifically.  I've already changed it so I'll investigate more when I test Navarra later.  Have 8 banters left to write.
