Carrion crawler AI seems to be broken in my BGEE 2.6 install of SCS 35.4 with the "slightly smarter" option enabled. They don't move at all or fight back when attacked. I'm not sure if SCS is to blame or any of the other mods I'm using. I did replace the default.bs script with the one from the original BG2. Here's the weidu log. // Log of Currently Installed WeiDU Mods // The top of the file is the 'oldest' mod // ~TP2_File~ #language_number #component_number // [Subcomponent Name -> ] Component Name [ : Version] ~DLCMERGER/DLCMERGER.TP2~ #0 #1 // Merge DLC into game -> Merge "Siege of Dragonspear" DLC: 1.5 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #0 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Core component: 4.6 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #1 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - BG2 vanilla bams for spells: 4.6 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #2 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - BG2 vanilla fonts for descriptions: 4.6 ~BGEECLASSICMOVIES/BGEECLASSICMOVIES.TP2~ #0 #0 // Restore BG1 movies to BG:EE -> Replace all movies: v2.3.1 ~BGEECLASSICMOVIES/BGEECLASSICMOVIES.TP2~ #0 #3 // Restore BG1 Chapter and Dream Screens: v2.3.1 ~A7-CONVENIENTEENPCS/A7-CONVENIENTEENPCS.TP2~ #0 #2 // Modify Enhanced Edition NPCs -> Make all NPCs passive: v4.5 ~K9QUICKSAVE/SETUP-K9QUICKSAVE.TP2~ #0 #4 // Install 1 Quick Save Slot: v1.5 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #0 // Slime Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #1 // Beregost Family Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #2 // Babysitting Quest, including the Carnival Encounter...: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #3 // Nashkel Monster Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #4 // Fallen Paladin Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #5 // Undying Love Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #6 // Lovesick Half-Orc: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #7 // Unexpected Help Quest: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #8 // Many Little Paws: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #9 // Drunk near Beregost Temple: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #10 // A Warm Place for Noober: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #11 // Brage's Sword: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #12 // Legal Sea Charts Sources: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #13 // Additions to the Lady's Hall and the Bitch Queen's Temple: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #14 // A Worried Farmer: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #15 // Bodies for a Good Cause: 27 ~BGQE/SETUP-BGQE.TP2~ #0 #16 // Finish Cordyr's Quest without killing Sil: 27 ~C#SODTWEAKS/SETUP-C#SODTWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2 // Do Not Miss NPC-PC Dialogues -> For NPCs in Party Only: v12.1 ~C#SODTWEAKS/SETUP-C#SODTWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #5 // More Dialogue Choices & Prevent Dead Ends: v12.1 ~C#SODTWEAKS/SETUP-C#SODTWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #7 // Restore scripted Abduction Scene Fight: v12.1 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #0 // The BG1 NPC Project: Required Modifications: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #10 // The BG1 NPC Project: Banters, Quests, and Interjections: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #20 // The BG1 NPC Project: Ajantis Romance Core (teen content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #30 // The BG1 NPC Project: Branwen's Romance Core (teen content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #40 // The BG1 NPC Project: Coran's Romance Core (adult content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #50 // The BG1 NPC Project: Dynaheir's Romance Core (teen content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #60 // The BG1 NPC Project: Shar-Teel Relationship Core (adult content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #70 // The BG1 NPC Project: Xan's Romance Core (teen content) -> Speed: 1 hour real time (standard) minimum between LoveTalks: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #90 // The BG1 NPC Project: NPCs can be sent to wait in an inn: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #110 // BGEE Banter Timing Tweak -> Banter Timing: Normal (about 27 minutes between banter dialogs): v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #160 // The BG1 NPC Project: Add Non-Joinable NPC portraits to quests and dialogues: v32 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #200 // The BG1 NPC Project: Player-Initiated Dialogues: v32 ~PPE/SETUP-PPE.TP2~ #0 #0 // Portraits Portraits Everywhere (PPE) - core component: 1.01 ~PPE/SETUP-PPE.TP2~ #0 #100 // Category Portraits (Recommended) -> Sequenced: 1.01 ~PPE/SETUP-PPE.TP2~ #0 #10 // Isandir's CHARNAME Portraits: 1.01 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #530 // Randomise scrolls: 7 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #570 // Randomise the appearance of cursed items: 7 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #1100 // Randomise items -> Mode 1: Randomise with in-game scripts.

The drow bolts only stun so I don't think that's it, also there doesn't appear to be any xbow users in this fight. It might be a poison of some kind though, I tried dispelling it with level 17 Keldorn and it didn't work. I didn't weaken inquisitor dispel in the options either. I had Anomen get chunked because he charged into a big pack of them and couldn't escape due to being immobilized due to encumbrance. It also happened to Nalia, neither one had anything on the character sheet to show what was wrong with them other than red 3 for the strength score.

Is there some ability of the improved drow in the House Jae'llat building that reduces your strength to 3? Not reduction, just a straight sets a characters strength to 3. I looked at the combat log and couldn't see anything that the affected character suffered to cause it.

listen, "DavidW" has an ego.

Are you trying to saying that spamming remove magic every single encounter on the party is something that is regular?

This is a prime example of what I was trying to say. What was supposed to be a spell CHOICE, is now an inconvenience. The mod maker thinks that because sequencers are very powerful, all mages should have them by default. By his logic, all melee classes should get greater whirlwind at level 5 because melee in the BG games is pathetic. The inquisitor class is explicitly stated as a DIVINE anti-mage class. It isn't supposed to be "fair" to mages. This is isn't world of warcraft. Mages have near god like power, the inquisitor class is balance. The inquisitor gives up almost all paladin powers and it is for almost the entire game just a weak fighter unless a mage is there.

SCS completely destroys classes like the inquisitor, why the hard on for mages? Inquisitor dispel, even in the base game, was the only time dispel magic ever worked. Not a single of the obvious mage overpowered spells are weakened by SCS. Timestop, Improved Alacrity combo, Improved haste, horrid wilting etc, no changes to the big ones. Instead I see stuff like letting all mages have sequencers and putting these spells on the special abilities because mages are such a weak class they need such a boost.

Firkraag battle was just an example, and I don't want to use that mod. What puzzles me about the SCS guy is that he has coded almost every fight in BG2 to spam the party with remove magic with every enemy out-leveling the party substantianly and tries to insist that SCS "plays fair" but now has the inquisitor dispel magic buff enabled by default. The mage/priest dispel magic spell will NEVER work in SCS, ever.. The inquisitor dispel, even in the unmodded game, was the only time dispel ever worked. SCS guy nerf the shits out of the Inquisitor class without giving anything back, and doesn't tell you that. Again, I can play with my feet if I want the game to be harder. SCS is supposed to be AI im[provements.

Too much of SCS in BG2 is spamming remove magic on the party. The only defense is spell immunity: abjuration. In fact, SCS is barely noticely in BG2 if the majority of your party can cast SI: abjuration. The big fights just spam the party with remove magic and the party members who can't cast SI: abjuration just die immediately. It's not an increase in difficulty, it just makes you cast the spell immunity spell. Example. Firkraag. Buff up with the normal spells to kill him. Melee gets strength, fire resist, improved haste. Ranged same. But SCS Firkraag spams remove magic all buffs are removed, he easily kills melee and his breath attack obliterates. Completely unwinnable battle no matter what you try, unless you reload 50 times. Extremely difficult encounter. SI:Abjuation domination. Your mage buffs to be immune to fire, however you want to do it. Cast mirror image, Stoneskin, SI: Abjuration (immune to firkragg now) Firkraag is a joke and easily killed however you want to do it. (I just hit him with a few lower resist and then spam with skull trap) Really, it seems all SCS in BG2 is spamming remove magic on the party.

Fairly typical install but who knows. Here's why weidu log. Most likely people either never use the horror spell because web/stinking cloud is superior or those that did never got in melee range, or just never reported it. This playthrough I'm using the item randomizer and have not found a web scroll so I am stuck using nothing but horror for my crowd control. // Log of Currently Installed WeiDU Mods // The top of the file is the 'oldest' mod // ~TP2_File~ #language_number #component_number // [Subcomponent Name -> ] Component Name [ : Version] ~DLCMERGER/SETUP-DLCMERGER.TP2~ #0 #1 // Merge DLC into game -> "Siege of Dragonspear" DLC: 1.2 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #0 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Core component: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #2 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - BG2 vanilla fonts for descriptions: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #3 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Disable item comparison feature: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #4 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Reverse +/- buttons position: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #5 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Single Click to Map Travel: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #9 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Small right sidebar buttons: 4.0 ~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #10 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Quests in journal collapsed by default: 4.0 ~BGEECLASSICMOVIES/SETUP-BGEECLASSICMOVIES.TP2~ #0 #0 // Restore BG1 movies to BG:EE -> Replace all movies: v2.2.0 ~BGEECLASSICMOVIES/SETUP-BGEECLASSICMOVIES.TP2~ #0 #3 // Restore BG1 Chapter and Dream Screens: v2.2.0 ~A7-CONVENIENTEENPCS/SETUP-A7-CONVENIENTEENPCS.TP2~ #0 #2 // Modify Enhanced Edition NPCs -> Make all NPCs passive: v4.0 ~BGEESPAWN/SETUP-BGEESPAWN.TP2~ #0 #101 // BGEE Leveling Spawns Mod: v0.6 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #0 // The BG1 NPC Project: Required Modifications: v24.8 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #10 // The BG1 NPC Project: Banters, Quests, and Interjections: v24.8 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #32 // The BG1 NPC Project: Branwen's Romance Core (teen content) -> Speed: 30 minutes real time minimum between LoveTalks: v24.8 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #156 // The BG1 NPC Project: Add Non-Joinable NPC portraits to quests and dialogues: v24.8 ~BG1NPC/BG1NPC.TP2~ #0 #200 // The BG1 NPC Project: Player-Initiated Dialogues: v24.8 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #530 // Randomise scrolls: 7 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #570 // Randomise the appearance of cursed items: 7 ~RANDOMISER/RANDOMISER.TP2~ #0 #1100 // Randomise items -> Mode 1: Randomise with in-game scripts.

Like I said, It seems to be anytime I use the horror spell. I first noticed it in BGEE with the latest version of SCS in my current playthrough with the Morvin ambush. The fighter/mage Halacon guy nearly one-shotted my main character while feared with the horror spell. I saw this same behavior many times in SCS v31 on BG2 Classic. Enemies appear to be acting normally under effects of the horror spell, but they will stop to attack then start running around again. I think they would only attack guys within melee range. It's like they still get their normal attacks per round, but are running around in fear until their turn to attack comes up again.

Is this an undocumented feature of SCS? Every time I use the horror spell, I see the enemies running around like normal but also attacking my party members at regular intervals. Just now I had giant spiders (with improved spiders) webbing my guys while feared. I noticed this over several versions of SCS also. My party members don't attack anyone while under the effects of the horror spell so I figure it's SCS doing it.

ok

I see why you have 8000 posts.

It's not self-extracting, there shouldn't be a default extraction. Just unzip it and put the 2 files in the BGEE directory like other weudi mods.
