Although after installing the mod, i've tested it giving to Imoen the kit "Bounty Hanter" ("cazarrecompensas" in spanish), but after beginning a BG1 game in BGT and joining her after Candlekeep.... she has the thief class anyway. Is it as is? I have a lot of mods and to install this there has been a lot of uninstalling of previous mods.......

Maybe Off-topic... must I open a new thread for this?

Yes, it's probably best if you start a new topic and post your WeiDU.log. I suspect you might have the SCS "Allow player to choose NPC proficiencies and skills" component, which means L1NPCs will skip certain NPCs. In this case, it would've allowed you to change the BG2 Imoen but not the BG1 Imoen.

Also, if you don't mind reporting the WeiDU glitch in the PPG forum. It could be WeiDU doesn't have a translation for that string, but it should.

August 23, 2008

Hm? RPG Dungeon's tutorials are here, in the "tutorials and lessons" section. I link there quite often to the romance authoring tutorial.

Hmm, well that looks like only a subset of what they once had. Specifically, I was looking for Rastor's item creation tutorial I linked in this thread, but it seems to be gone now.

August 23, 2008

About the .TP2 thing, sorry... it is my mistake. The only thing left to translate it's the first paragraph when executing mod... "The LEVEL1NPCS/LEVEL1NPCS.TP2 mod has 41 distinct......"

Oh, that's just a general WeiDU message. Did you test it with your translation and it's still in English? If so, it sounds like a WeiDU bug.

[Edit: Though we should probably add an ASK_EVERY_COMPONENT to the tp2 anyway, cmorgan/Nythrun. I can't imagine someone just installing all components of this mod without making choices... it's not like that's even possible anyway.]

August 22, 2008

Although the first of them is relative, as I've seen in a lot of spanish translations at least 5 or 6 different forms to say this.... So I don't know if this could help.

Yes, this is something Nythrun herself suspected when writing this code. So if you want to post any alternate forms you've seen, that would help. Basically, all that does is if you choose to alter weapon usability, it will also try to modify the item descriptions accordingly (and the more variations we cover, the better it should work).

Thanks for the translation - I'm sure cmorgan can add it for the next release .

August 18, 2008

Not sure if RPG Dungeon has tutorials anymore either (or they're buried somewhere if so). CoM could be added though.

August 7, 2008

P.S. It's ok to spam this thread right? lol I mean with all these silly bugs (cos i have a few more silly ones) ... i just want a perfect game haha

Sure, you can keep posting here for now. Though it will be better to use separate (or existing) threads in the fixpack forum, but unfortunately that needs CamDawg to give you access. Feel free to PM him about it too (he didn't respond to mine). In the meantime, if you want to get started proofing the textpack or anything, I can probably put it on my server and send you some links.

August 7, 2008

so I've now found X 544 Y 668 to be working great.

Weird. That is still pretty far south of the actual location, but if that's what works, that's what works.

So that is patching it with WeiDU? That would have taking a while for me to figure out haha. If I even could.

Yeah. It might look like hieroglyphics, but it isn't as hard as it looks. That particular type of patching takes more math skills than anything else. I have no such skills; however, I have petty thief skills, so I just stole someone else's code (probably CamDawg's) and changed a few things. You can do the same if you want to mess around with it - all you need is the BACKUP, AUTHOR and BEGIN flags before that code (look at any mod .tp2 file for examples), and you can install it and change things with it yourself (provided you also copy a WeiDU .exe or that from another mod and rename it to the same name as your .tp2 file, so that you can install and uninstall it).

August 7, 2008

Incidentally, I thought the comment Kivan made about Rill in the cloakwood mines was extremely out of character. "associating with slaves will drag you down to their level"? pfah

That is something one would expect to hear from one of the evil NPCs.

What's funny is that even in vanilla BG1, Kivan is not really the "good guy" you might think. If he witnesses Viconia's death, he'll say "May Viconia's soul rot in hell." Whereas, if the reverse happens, she'll say "It is sad that Kivan and I never understood each other." Which one is more "evil?" PnP alignment can be a pretty shallow guide to personality sometimes.

I believe I fixed it! All that was required was to lower the 'Y location' of the crate from 668 to 658. Maybe it was colliding with the Reptrap somehow? I've no clue. But feels good to fix it

Hmm weird. The reptrap really shouldn't be colliding with it even before that edit. If you look at it in DLTCEP (on the Regions tab), it blocks the doorway. I think this is what the game uses at certain points to call the guards on you if your reputation is too low. The crate is a good distance off to the right (on the Containers tab).

The bounding box for the reptrap is 373,558,586,423. The bounding box for container 2 (the crate) is 550,627,657,571, and the position is 541,668. So the position is off a bit but off in the wrong direction (south) from the reptrap (which is west/northwest). Maybe it is just that the position is too far from the bounding box. If you change it to 550,627 does it work too?

Now figure out how to patch it with WeiDU and I will really be impressed . (It shouldn't really be that difficult, but it's a bit beyond the basics.)

Edit: Easier than I thought - I just pinched some existing code that was similar:

COPY_EXISTING ~ar3357.are~ ~override~
 READ_LONG 0x70 nf //Container offset
 READ_SHORT 0x74 nc //Container count
 FOR (i1 = 0; i1 < nc; i1 += 1) BEGIN
READ_SHORT (i1 * 0xc0 + nf + 0x20) xc //X coordinate
READ_SHORT (i1 * 0xc0 + nf + 0x22) yc //Y coordinate
PATCH_IF (xc = 541) AND (yc = 668) BEGIN
  WRITE_SHORT (i1 * 0xc0 + nf + 0x20) 550
  WRITE_SHORT (i1 * 0xc0 + nf + 0x22) 627
END
 END

The Red Sheaf Inn crate has something to do with the REPTRAP. If you delete that it you can loot it.

I think a lot of chests have that, but maybe the settings aren't right on that one, or the associated script is off.

August 5, 2008

Well with Karan you can reply "He's... he's dead, whoever he was. ..."

Sounds like a bug then. Should be pretty easy to do a death check for the assassins before spawning the monks.

August 4, 2008

I remember not being able to loot that chest in the Red Sheaf, because I pretty much try to steal anything that isn't nailed down (or even if it is). These things could be scripting bugs - I know we looked into some already (like the presence of only a cat being able to call the guards).

When you are fighting Carbos or Shank but leave the room before killing them Parda/Karan will be there. The dialog gives the impressing you killed them, especially with Karan. This could have been designed so that players that couldn't actually kill them could leave and still get the story elements from the npc's but I'm not sure.

Hmm, well the dialogue doesn't actually refer to the assassins being dead, does it? If so, I think it's a bug but if not, then it could be as you say.

August 3, 2008

I would be happy to proofread and actual testing. So let me know

- Flunders

EDIT: I’ve found two bugs that I would like to report but not sure where to do this. Is there a seperate forum for the BG1fixpack or is it private only?

Oh, sorry - I missed this. As I said in the PM, I've asked CamDawg (or whoever else can do so) to give you forum access. For now, you can report anything you find here. Thanks for volunteering!

August 1, 2008

I would be happy to do that as well

Just posted that in the fixroom too.

July 31, 2008

Send me the tp2, I will document.

You already had access - it's the first post in the fixroom

. As for format, the BG2 Fixpack's is thorough enough I think.

What we really need help with is proofing the game text update though. Not sure where Salk put it - I guess I'll have to upload it somewhere unless he's done that already.

July 31, 2008

Has there been any progress with this mod?

Sort of. We have a working alpha (I think) with a lot of fixes from plainab, Idobek, and including all of Baldurdash and some of Dudleyville. We have a full game text update by Salk which also incorporates Baldur/Dudley if the changes were valid. What we mainly need now is someone to help with proofreading and documentation, and eventually with testing. And there hasn't been exactly a huge rush of volunteers for that, but then again I guess we haven't really asked either, not publicly anyway. So if anyone wants to help, let us know. Coding skills not required; English skills would help though.

What means "parchment" in LeaveAreaLUA (S:Area*,S:Parchment*,P:Point*,I:Face*)?

Thanks for testing. Saves me from having to do it :cool:

.

No idea what "parchment" means. Anyone?

No, CreateItem bumps the item in front of the container for TotSC, also.

The inlined script can be external too, obviously. This adds a potion to Candlekeep Inn by way of example, using the best method possible based on your platform.

Ah, you mean for ADD_GAME_NPC the NPCLEVEL.2DA doesn't get applied. Zed Nocear would have to say something to that, I have no idea (I'll give him a note). Or maybe someone else knowing about ADD_GAME_NPC is still around. I assume the WeiDU-readme doesn't say anything to that?

The WeiDU tutorial doesn't say anything about it. The ideal "user-friendly" thing to do would be to ask the users if they want to install the mod for all saved games or for new games only. I guess I'll make that my next project...

May 30, 2008

if your BG1 mod is enforcing that a new game
Not BGQE, where I would have needed this, but I found another workaround.

You did? I thought you decided not to put items in a container, which isn't really much of a workaround if a BG1 modder does want to do that.

Edit: So do you know if it works for TotSC or is it just invalid for BG1 w/o TotSC?

But are you saying npclevel.2da doesn't work in BG1(TotSC)?
Where do you read that? I think it works fine, and with the NPC creation possibility introduced here it gets applied for the mod NPC, as well.

It's here:

The advantages are:
...

- the NPC-CRE-changes as defined by NPCLEVEL.2DA get applied, depending on the level of the PC.

Saying this is an advantage for Zed's method implies it isn't the case for the existing (ADD_GAME_NPC) method.

May 30, 2008

WeiDU offers ADD_GAME_NPC (please refer to the WeiDU-readme), but with ADD_GAME_NPC all BALDUR.GAM files in SAVE and MPSAVE get altered, which is... cruel.
Zed Nocear suggests the following possibility to add a custom joinable NPC to the game via the tp2:
COPY_EXISTING ~baldur.gam~ ~override~
 INSERT_BYTES 0xB4 0x160
 WRITE_LONG 0x140 0xFFFFFFFF
 WRITE_LONG 0x144 0xFFFFFFFF
 WRITE_LONG 0x168 0xFFFFFFFF
 WRITE_SHORT 0x16C 0xFFFF
 READ_LONG 0x34 npc_count
 WRITE_LONG 0x34 ("%npc_count%" + 1)
 READ_LONG 0x20 party_offset
 WRITE_LONG 0x20 ("%party_offset%" + 0x160)
 WRITE_LONG 0x28 ("%party_offset%" + 0x160)
 WRITE_LONG 0x50 ("%party_offset%" + 0x930)
 WRITE_ASCII 0xC0 ~MYNPC~  // name of file MYNPC.CRE (without extension)
 WRITE_ASCII 0xCC ~AR2600~ // area that you want NPC placed in
 WRITE_SHORT 0xD4 123		// x co-ordinate on the map
 WRITE_SHORT 0xD6 456		// y co-ordinate on the map
 WRITE_LONG 0xC8 7			  // face orientation
This solution has one disadvantage: A new game has to be started for the NPC to be present in the game.

The advantages are:

- only the main file Baldur.GAM gets changed, SAVEs don't get touched.

- the NPC-CRE-changes as defined by NPCLEVEL.2DA get applied, depending on the level of the PC.

- "face orientation" can be used.

I'm trying to decide which method (ADD_GAME_NPC or the code above) is less of a disadvantage. I'm leaning toward ADD_GAME_NPC as long as either the readme or the install makes it clear the user should back up their saves first.

But are you saying npclevel.2da doesn't work in BG1(TotSC)? If not, why's it there?

The facing I can live without, or I guess it could be scripted if it's important.

CreateItem() doesn't work for containers: The item lands on the ground in front of the container.
Normally, creating an item in a container would be done via area script, for example:

IF

Global("C#ItemInChest","GLOBAL",0)

THEN

RESPONSE #100

SetGlobal("C#ItemInChest","GLOBAL",1)

ActionOverride("Container1",CreateItem("C#ITEM",0,0,0))

END

Unfortunately, this does not work for BG1: the item is not created inside the container, but in front on the ground.

Does this work in TotSC? I have a macro from Ascension64 that simulates CreateItem() in a container, but it's kind of long... Still, if your BG1 mod is enforcing that a new game must be started anyway, it might be useful.

May 15, 2008

No, I'm referring to the corrupt version that DSotSCTD provides.

Ah. Well that's the BGT version... We ran the G3 Debuggerer and your CRE checker on everything and fixed anything we found, but maybe those two tools don't account for everything and we missed some things. It's weird though - I don't see a bub3 or even a dsbub3 CRE in either version, and I'm looking at the same BGT DSotSC reported in that other thread. Not in NTotSC either. So it must've been added by something else in that laundry list of mods...

mutant canadian superheroes in the FR? Perhaps, but not in my party, thank-you-very-much.

Pretty lame, but apparently the BG developers liked doing this sort of thing, what with "Lord Foreshadow" telling you about NWN's imminent release, and what have you. As it turns out, he's just a farmer-turned-ogre hunter - nothing supernatural about him. We could change his name, but that'd kind of stray from the spirit of just finishing the UB. Then again, if L1NPCs is offering to tweak damn near every other aspect of NPCs, why not allow NPC name changing too, along with some sooper code that greps and replaces all dialogue references?

May 14, 2008

Ahah, that's where Bub-Of-The-Sixteen-Nulls-Stuffed-In-Header comes from.

Bub is kind of a UB-ish character in the vanilla game, who has some dialogue suggesting he might join, but he doesn't. So DS just adds to this and makes him joinable. Rather than try to patch the guy, I think I'm going to purge the default Bub (bub.cre or _bub.cre in Tutu) and add dsbub.cre/dsbub6.cre instead via area script - BGT does the same thing, so the Tutu/BGT resources for this cre will be the same (post above edited for this).

The resource naming "conventions" are wack - I'm gonna see if I can change that (probably not at this stage). Don't feel you need to add all that for v1 (v2?) but it'd be nice .

Edit: added dsclck23.itm; bub[6].cre > dsbub[6].cre.

Cool stuff, man - the Scotch is definitely on me when I finally get to swing down your way. Or, more family friendly orange juice and milk!

Nonsense... scotch is for kids too. Why do you think they're all so bloody mad in Scotland?

Ye gods of scripting... I'm surprised DavidW has time to maintain this on top of his other projects and RL, but best of luck to both of you.

FW3200 (High Hedge) - replaces the linkings to the abandoned house.
FW3201 (Abandoned House) - Um, replaces it.

These are both on the list already. Or are you using them for a mod?
