morpheus562 Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 For the list of mods that I do state compatibility for, I have worked around all of them so as not to overwrite or replace anything (i.e. MiH adds a sword to character 'x'. I do not replace weapons for character 'x' but may assign them a ring, armor, helm, or something else). Quote Link to comment

Yeah, I thought so, I will probably install this mod, it looks quite interesting even at a price of losing some nifty trinkets from DSotSC. Quote Link to comment

Greenhorn Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Oh boy, spear component from this, together with More Meaningful Stat Bonuses from SaA, I'm seriously tempted to be spearman for the first time instead of the same old swordsman. Quote Link to comment

Dammit. I've just started a new install this Sunday... ahwell. Does this affects the AC bracers as well, or just the base stat items? Also, how does the NWN2 style stats handle composite bows (both standard long and RR's short ones)? Edited June 1, 2022 by Graion Dilach Quote Link to comment
morpheus562 Posted June 1, 2022 Author Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) @Graion DilachAbility scores (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA) is actually the correct term. AC braces are not effected. I recommend installing that component, and my NWN2 style weapons components AFTER SCS (but before my Skills and Abilities proficiency updates). Reason being is SCS adds a couple items that we want to look at and update accordingly. Composite bows, both standard and RR ones, receive the following: Critical Threat: 20/x2+1d6 Base bonuses remain on the bows. If a bow has a "Keen" property, then the critical threat range will automatically be updated. I added a link above that outlines the base weapon stats.

Not a fan. Sure, there isn't really a good option here* (mindlessly adding the items risk pushing out stuff from the inventory as Gwaihir proved a while ago), this mindset would longterm require to maintain a giant shared itemlist for people to look at what slots are unused. * excluding adding individual new mobs to the encounters who wield the new items, like say, one more supplementing druid to Seniyad's group or something, but taht needs scripting updates as well afterall I know I'll be asking a lot here, but I'd moreso push for risking the pushout atleast as an INI option. IIRC only the pushout can still be fixed later down the road (unless REPLACE_CRE_ITEM also keeps the previous item embedded in the CRE file, because then a tweak mod can still go over the CRE file, gather up all the items lacking an inventory index, collect them into a bag of holding and then replace and add that bag of holding into the game as well).

I would need to think on this. I would not say that I mindlessly added items due to the many, many hours spent ensuring compatibility with the mods I listed. There already probably should be a giant shared itemlist since I had to manually verify I wasn't overwriting something by the various other item mods that inserted items the same way that I am. I'm not opposed to new mobs and assigned scripting templates, but one of the main issues I was hoping to correct was giving higher level enemies items that are in line with their progression. To me it makes no sense for a level 12 fighter to be using either a non-magical or generic non-named +1 longsword, so I give them something like a unique and named +1/+2 weapon instead. By adding and giving the items to new enemies, then the old ones I was trying to buff will still be using their same old weapon. Revanek, the 19th level fighter in the Twisted Rune, would still be completely naked for example. The ini option you propose is doable, but I will need to figure out a way to check if a .cre has an item assigned in the slot I want to use, and then to copy that item and move it to the inventory. I don't think there is an easy way to say move Weapon1 to Inventory, so I'll just have to come up with the appropriate way to do it. REPLACE_CRE_ITEM will remove the previous item embedded in the CRE file. Quote Link to comment
Graion Dilach Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Quote ADD_CRE_ITEM will add the item to the first empty slot in the list. If no slot is empty, the item will be placed in the first slot in the list and the item that previously occupied the slot will be moved to the general inventory. If the general inventory is full, the moved item will be discarded. That's from WeiDU's own doc. Additionally. discarded items this way are still remaining in the CRE file, they just end up without an inventory index. Which is why that can still be salvaged via a late-install tweak mod to parse these out into dynamically created bag of holdings. Quote Link to comment

morpheus562 Posted June 5, 2022 Author Share Posted June 5, 2022 Thank you to @CamDawgfor making the main page on g3 for this mod. I'm currently building out a new component to alter/update many of the existing items in the game to give it more flavor. Quote Link to comment
