Version Beta 6 of IWDification is now released. This is a very minimal update - it just corrects a nasty logic bug on Enhanced Edition installs that (unless you installed components one at a time) messed up the animations, prevented Giant Insect from installing, and broke SCS compatibility.

This mod is basically CamDawg's baby, not mine (I wrote a lot of the code it's based on for IWD-in-BG2, but he turned that code into something self-contained). So I haven't tried to do a more systematic trawl for bugs.

And to be complete, it also includes the French translation of the master branch which had not been officially released.

fj_are_structure function with fj_delete_mode = 1 should work.

Hello jastey

That was an easy one: You can keep the same stringrefs for the French translation.

But there is a typo in @98

@98 = ~La Vanité de Nizidramanii'yt, par Thimblerig~

should be

@98 = ~La Vanite de Nizidramanii'yt, par Thimblerig~

It does not work : tested with IA and returned errors when checking for LABEL install...

6 hours ago, Lauriel said:

Ok, I tested this.  Labeling multiple options of the same subcomponent with the same label will make it so that any checks using that label will return false, unfortunately.  That would have been handy in case of subcomponents.  Oh well.

So did I with IA to check if a creature animation was installed (might be by several different components or sub-components) and it screwed up all checking.

You got it!

Example of detecting component install with LABEL:

ACTION_IF (MOD_IS_INSTALLED "grammarsalad_mod.tp2" (ID_OF_LABEL "grammarsalad_mod/grammarsalad_mod" "test1")) BEGIN
    PRINT "grammarsalad_mod installed: component test1"
END ELSE BEGIN
    PRINT "grammarsalad_mod not installed: component test1"
END

This mod adds a few amusing dialogs with a legendary four musicians named "The Beatles". You can meet them in the Five Flagons Inn Theater. These famous musicians by the will of fate found themselves on Faerun. It's just an unusual meeting and couple of dialogs, no new stuff, spells or quests.

Original note from the author:

This little mod was created as a joke.

And why not create a cellar in which it would be hidden?

The two characters could cohabit...

There are two ways of using a trigger region to enter a new area. A travel trigger (usually, but not always, linked to a door), and an info region triggering a script that teleports the target into a new area. The problem with Waukeen Promenade is the search map that does not allow your character to "walk" to the trigger. The info trigger tip is the best way to achieve what you need imo.

Because it's not a door, but a trigger.

OK. So all you need is to mimic a door behavior with a script. A good example is the portal in Irenicus Dungeon (AR0602): Check how trigger Jail Portal works (specially  tele0603.bcs file).

1) Does the door also exist in AR0700.wed file ?

2) Do the open tiles exist in tis file ?

If not, my macros won't work as they have been written for a specific case: using effective doors that are not used in the game. To create a brand new door in a map, the process is much more complex and I did not wrote an automatic process for it. It might be possible but I have no time for it at the moment.

I guess @jastey is the right person to ping.

Here is the code commonly used to check for SoD:

        OUTER_SET is_bgee = (GAME_IS ~bgee~ AND NOT GAME_INCLUDES ~sod~) ? 1 : 0    // bgee without SoD
        OUTER_SET is_sod = (GAME_IS ~bgee~ AND GAME_INCLUDES ~sod~) ? 1 : 0            // SoD

So, yes:  if you don't care for checking bgee without SoD, GAME_IS ~bgee~ is your friend.
