Hello Daulmakan's Item Pack for Baldur's Gate II already replaces the icons for some of the items listed. Copied from the readme; "new BAMs for Perdue’s Sword, Edwin’s Amulet, History of the Sisters of Light and Darkness, and the Vial of Mysterious Liquid." http://www.shsforums.net/topic/41865-item-pack-v18/ I have no idea if this mod works on the EE versions of the games. New icons for all the other stuff listed in the first post would be great though. Thanks

Thanks @Jarno, didnt know BGT-weidu did any checks like that, i'll use shadowkeeper to fix it. I've found another minor issue. In the Circus tent one of the illusionary peasant/orcs is causing me to lose reputation when killed. I've had a look at the files in NI and used change-log to try and find out whats going on and it looks like its infinity animations that is changing the class to innocent. From changelog; Mods affecting KCHILD2.CRE: 00000: /* created or unbiffed */ ~BG2FIXPACK\SETUP-BG2FIXPACK.TP2~ 0 0 // BG2 Fixpack - Core Fixesv13 00001: ~SETUP-INFINITYANIMATIONS.TP2~ 0 710 // More Planescape: Torment Animations25% of relevant non-joinablesv5 BWP Fix 00002: ~STRATAGEMS\SETUP-STRATAGEMS.TP2~ 0 5900 // Initialise AI components (required for all tactical and AI components)33.7 00003: ~SETUP-LOLFIXER.TP2~ 0 1 // Creature Stuff - Creature Resource Fixer19022016 00004: ~SETUP-LOLFIXER.TP2~ 0 5 // Creature Stuff - MAJESTIC Creature Fixer19022016 00005: /* acted upon in an undefined manner */ ~GENERALIZED_BIFFING/GENERALIZED_BIFFING.TP2~ 0 1 // Generalized BiffingBiff all files (recommended by the Big World Dudes)v2.4 I think this is just me getting unlucky with the animations being assigned but it might be worth excluding these 2 from possible non-joinable npcs who could potentially be affected by this component. change-log kchild2.7z

Hello, I've found another odd thing with my install. I've got Victor's Improvements Pack version 2.0 installed and tyhe first component tweaks some races. Anyway, I created a half orc character with 20 constitution (yes i know its super cheesy) but they only start with 10HP. They get 15 HP per level up but initial HP is wrong. Characters with 19 constitution have 15 HP as expected. I've checked HPCONBON.2DA and it looks right, i think. Anyone got ideas whats gone wrong or what else i should check? Thanks

@Bartimaeus hello, i have a really specific question about the changes to charm. Will the charm spell the ring of human influence has as an ability still break/counter the enchantment or whatever it is affecting Glaicus in De'Arnisse keep? Thanks

@Chitown Willie you could use level1npcs mod to get round this, though i think its only for the classic games This component would make Eldoth's xp the same as or close to that of your main character; ~LEVEL1NPCS\LEVEL1NPCS.TP2~ #0 #3 // Joinable NPCs more closely match the player character's experience -> On initial joining only: v3

@HotaruPL Download the pdf from here http://www.shsforums.net/files/file/534-big-world-english/ There are a number of mods, or parts of mods, that get installed before BGT. Its been done that way for a long time now, if not right from the start.

@HotaruPL try using the install order i gave you in the other thread, thats based on the current BWP install order. As Greenhorn said, your current install order is a mess. Or just ue the BWP installer to do it all for you. Follow the instructions and it will use the mods you put in the relevant folder and install those for you

Have a look at the readme for Aurora, it recommends installing it fairly late in the install order, and has a troubleshooting section, but it would probably be best to do a fresh install before looking at trying to troubleshoot it as where you've currently got it installed may be the main issue. http://www.spellholdstudios.net/ie/aurora http://readme.spellholdstudios.net/aurora-english.html And in regard to reusing an old save, again im far from an expert but its generally not a good idea, too much to go wrong.

Did you get an error log in your game folder? You might need to enable it. right click on baldur.ini and add the following under [Program Options] Debug Mode=1 Logging On=1 Then save the file and start the game again and replicate the problem and then see if you get an error log in the game folder. If you do, post it here and other people who know lots more than me might be able to help, but im thinking your install order is probably the main cause. Yeah, pretty much. Safest to start from scratch. Jarno wrote a big long guide about megamodding over at SpellholdStudios, probably worth giving that a read too. Mod install order is really important for a lot of stuff, and seems like a nightmare to sort out, which is why I rely on other peoples hard work. And Alien's Project Infinity makes installing lots of mods much easier, you just need to spend a bit of time working out how to use it and getting everything in the right place before you start. Can save a load of hassle in the long run

Hello What actual error do you get? Your install order seems a bit random as well I re-ordered what you posted above, using the BWP 19.2 order You could try re-intalling everything in that order and see if it helps try this.7z

@Bartimaeus this is what it says in the BWP pdf 19.2 I just had a quick check and this is only in the newest version, prior to 19.2 it says to install all components. Thanks

Goddamit. The newest BWP PDF(19.2) says not to install LOLfixer components; ~SETUP-LOLFIXER.TP2~ #0 #0 // Area Stuff - MAJESTIC Area Fixer: 19022016 ~SETUP-LOLFIXER.TP2~ #0 #2 // Creature Stuff - Inventory Unborker (removes spurious references to the item table): 19022016 ~SETUP-LOLFIXER.TP2~ #0 #4 // Creature Stuff - Inventory Overhauler (moves invalid but equippable items to inventory and equips anything in the inventory to a free slot): 19022016 Why? Because it buggers stuff up, as @Bartimaeus and @Magus pointed out, thanks. But I was using 18.2 as a guide and that says to install all of them. I have nearly finished a sorting order csv file based on BWP 19.2 but as Leonardo is still busy working on refining it, i'll wait before i post it here, un;less anyone wants it now. Good job i double checked that, I thought for a moment that I'd been a proper numpty and had ignored it and achieved a newer, greater level of stupid. It also explains the weird bug i had with the Merchant League quest, that I mentioned a few months back, thanks for taking a look at that @jastey at least we know it what the problem probably was now - me not using the newest version and LOLFIXER.TP2~ #0 #0 // Area Stuff - MAJESTIC Area Fixer. Next, probably dumb idea, What will happen if I uninstall them? Those three components? Will that cause problems with my current playthrough? I know i'll have to dick about uninstalling stuff with different versions of weidu but thats not too much of an issue. Me uninstalling stuff and my saved game then breaking will piss me right off though. So do i uninstall them and hope for the best or not bother and just ignore all the duplicated items and hope there are no other fun and exciting bugs waiting to be discovered? Anyway, thanks for all the help and suggestions. And not calling me a dunce.

I was starting to wonder if that was the cause, I've found quite a lot of enemies with numerous suits of armour etc, I thought it was supposed to do the opposite but might be wrong. I've attached it, thanks WeiDU.7z

The idiot returns. And I've fixed it. Well, i gave it a through googling and found solution which has fixed it. Yes, i should have googled it harder before posting about it but She who must be obeyed was shouting at me to do stuff so i didnt have time earlier. Anyway, the fix was to use DLTCEP - Extract from Bif Bob's your uncle, Fanny's your aunt area110a.bif is now in C:\BGT all\BGII - SOA\data and everything seems to be ok. http://www.shsforums.net/topic/57209-bwsbwp-crashing-on-entering-tazoks-tent/page-2 http://readme.spellholdstudios.net/aurora-english.html#trouble

Hello I'm getting another crash to desktop [Sun 04 Jul 2021 09:58:44] ASSERTION FAILED!

Thanks bonehill2 CTD.7z

Hello. I've been poking around in NearInfinity and .CRE files can have up to 6 different scripts applied to them. I think override script Class script Race script General sript Default script Dialogue scrip This is probably a big, broad, vague question, but what gets used where and when and what takes precedence over something else? Whats the difference between them all? What happens if something has no scripts applied to it? Thanks

ARU000 changelog.7z

@Angel Thanks for the reply. I thought you're mods were mainly aimed at the EE games, glad some of it works on the original though. I've found the same issue with a few more items - the description cutting off at the items weight, and one item doesnt have an icon assigned. All minor things though. MH#BTAX2.ITM - description ends at item Weight MH#BRAC5.ITM - description ends at item Weight MH#COMP4.ITM - description ends at item Weight MH#CLCK2.ITM - description ends at item Weight and no icon set Anyway, thanks for your mods. I'll get round to doing a megamod using the EE games one day

I've found another issue. This one seems like it might potentially cause more problems than i've encountered so far. Orc mages and priests aren't casting spells or even attacking in melee. They just walk towards my party and don't actually do anything. I hate orc mages and priests because they normally cast loads of really annoying spells. They're normally a massive pain in my arse but not this time, other mages and priests are casting spells so its not everything, just certain creatures that seem to be affected. In NI ORC03.CRE(Priest) and ORC04.CRE(Mage) have the following scripts assigned;. override script GENSHT01.BCS Class script AGRANDRB.BCS Race script none General sript none Default script BPWDASGT.BCS Dialogue script none So I ran changelog on them and on the scripts. It looks like BP component 650 - Humanoids is changing their default script from DW#MG388.BCS / DW#PR195.BCS to BPWDASGT.BCS ORC03 changelog ORC04 changelog I think there's something wrong with BPWDASGT.BCS. I compared the BPWDASGT.BAF that comes with BP witht he version i can see in NI and there are a lot of differences. I did run the BWP Fixpack before i started the installation, as i was following BWP18.2 as a guide for install order so maybe that did something too, though from what i can tell the relevant component in the fixpack just adds NoAction() to a few blocks. BPWDASGT.BAF patch BPWDASGT.BCS changelog Also if I use Find References to this script and select CRE NearInfinity crashes. I'll try setting the default script back to the SCS one and see what happens. But, am i going to need to do this for every cre thats been assigned BPWDASGT as a default or general script? Whats gone wrong with it, looking at the original script it looks like it does a lot more than the ingame version? Is there anyway of replacing it by putting a copy of the original file in the override folder and seeing what happens? The original (in the extracted mod folder) is a .BAF and ingame is .BCS. Is BCS the compiled version of the BAF? Any help greatly appreciated. I've attached the .baf exported using NI and the changelog for BPWDASGT BPWDASGT.7z

I found another odd thing. On the last dungeon level of Durlag's Tower. The Mace +2 BLUN11.ITM Its Identified name and Identified Description are all messed up. Im not sure if this is being caused by IR/IRR or Unfinished Business identified name strref is getting changing from 88162 to 103012 identified description strref is getting changing from 88163 to 103013 I looked up 103012/3 in NI and they are dialog strings from BELDOT.DLG Changing them back in NI fixes it, just wondering whats going wrong. BLUN11.7z

Hello Nearly finished Durlag's Tower and had a few minor issues i thought I'd ask about. I had a prbolem fighting the 4 warders. One of them, Avarice?, goes invisible, backstabs then seems to completely vanish. So you cant get the ward stone for the next level as you havent killed all four of them. I searched the whole level with true seeing, couldnt find him anywhere. Spawned another one via the console and same thing happened. So i spawned the wardstone and went to level 2 and there they both were. Is there any way of stopping them being able to do this? As, potentially your stuck on level one without using the console. @Angel I think theres a couple of minor issues with the sword Terminus Est. When you right click on the item to read the description its not displaying all of it, like who can and can't use it. The poison icon doesnt get displayed on the character portraits even though the effect works. And i think the poison effect is slightly different than the description, it seems to do 1 point of damage over 10 rounds rather than 2 points over 5. Im using version 5 of item pack. And finally the Bishops in the Chess battle seem to have duplicate items, equipped and in inventory. I ran achangelog on BGBISHOP.CRE, copied the extra .cre files to the override so i could look at them in NearInfinity but i cant work out whats causing them to duplicate. Minor things but i thought id ask. Anyone got any ideas? TERMINUS EST.7z BGBISHOP.7z

It was a problem with my install. Somehow i'd missed downloading this http://www.shsforums.net/files/file/867-ia-content-worms-nwn-ports-alternate-modron-v3/ I checked through my project infinity install logs and saw that a couple of comonents had been skipped because "IA_NWN_01_Modron.rar needs to be extracted and installed with the main component." Not quite sure how i've missed this one but its my fault. I checked with Gwendolyne and tried what he suggested and it now works I downloaded the file in the link and extracted the contents of \[NWN]+Amel into the \override, used NI to set Haeball's animation back to AMEL_PC_NWN and tested it and it works, can enter the tower (AR9001) Haeball is there with correct animation. Thanks @jastey and @Gwendolyne for your help, sorry it was my fault Looking forward to the new Infinity Animations when its ready, no rush

@Gwendolyne Here's the results of changelog for NTHAEBAL and NTDRAAGI If i use the console to summon them, regardless of area, if Animation is set to AMEL_PC_NWN - 21101 the game crashes. Let me know if you want me to check anything else. Thanks for your help NTHAEBAL and NTDRAAGI.7z
