Yeah, the variable is only set on a successful ADD_KIT--if the kit is already present then ADD_KIT never gets executed and the variable is not set. This is also potentially a problem if ADD_KIT and the assignment of the kit are in different components. If the kit is added in one component and then the user quits the variable is lost. If they then begin setup again, the value is null and you'll get the same 'variable not set' error. You should be able to check the 2das and determine the value through other means if the kit is already present.

Hehe. Whenever WeiDU throws up errors on commands that look fine, always start looking at the commands before--especially for missing tildes.

And on second thought, use REQUIRE_PREDICATE instead. REQUIRE_FILE will provide an option for non-Tutu installs, and players answering yes will get an ominous failure if they try to install it. REQUIRE_PREDICATE, OTOH, will skip the component outright if it's not Tutu making it easier for the player. REQUIRE_PREDICATE FILE_EXISTS_IN_GAME ~_sw1h04.itm~ ~~Tutu must be present. Skipping this component.~

REQUIRE_FILE needs an additional argument. You need to include a string that displays if the file is not present, i.e. REQUIRE_FILE ~override/_sw1h04.itm~ ~Tutu must be present. Skipping this component.~ COPY_EXISTING ~_minsc.cre~ ~override~ // etc

The relevant bit is here: ~Cleric_Remix/Selune/C!Selune.2da~ This tells WeiDU to copy the C!Selune.2da file as the kit's 2da, and that it can be located in the Cleric_Remix/Selune folder. If you just wish to use the existing CLABFI01.2da found in the game, you should change that line to ~override/clabfi01.2da~ One complication may be that the file is in a biff file and not necessarily in the override folder. To insure against that, either include a copy with your mod and use the path to it or force it to be in the override folder by adding COPY_EXISTING ~clabfi01.2da~ ~override~ before your ADD_KIT command.

Since ice has been extremely good about keeping the first post updated, I cleared out all of the separate posts with bug lists since they've already been consolidated into the first post. Also updated the list with recent bugfixes.

Updated a fair bit to include the v3 stuff.

This from BW may assist us in tracking all of these.

I mark them off as I fix them, but for the most part I've been concentrating on recoding BD fixes.

SP Collection hits Version 6. Sorcerer's Place Collection - v6 - Fixed bug where Arcane Fist would lose their fist upgrade after reloading. Among other things, this left them unable to kill enemies. - Made Sylvan Mystic kit friendlier for SoA-only installs.

First, thanks for the kind words, and welcome to modding. For the questions, it's mainly no. The engine is hardcoded to only grant the extra number of attacks from proficiencies to fighter classes--swashbucklers never get their extra half attack for two stars, for example. AFAIK, this is hardcoded. (I should probably add it to the tutorial too, since it's something that I see a fair bit in kitmaking.) As for the distinct usabilities, you're kinda stuck unless you implement a hacky workaround. You'd need to do something like making mage robes available to clerics, and then take one of the other kit unusability flags for your new kit. I use this trick in SPC, for example, to allow the Arcane Fist to use robes. I change Undead Hunters to use the same items as regular paladins (since there's no difference in the game) and then use the free flag to implement new restrictions. It's very hacky and unsatisfying. It has the additional drawback of still not being perfect (regular clerics would be able to use mage robes, unless you added even more hacks). It also has a lot of compatibility issues--other mods may try to use the same flag, or you'll mess up any mod items/kits/etc. that may use the unusability flag you just borrowed.

Gah, missed your fixes for v2. I've added them locally for v3 and I'm going to start working through this list as my next project. Found some additional variable issues (these may or may not be bugs): aerieq is used as both a LOCALS and GLOBAL AnomenLeaveAngry and AnomenLeavesAngry are both used faceon and faceone are both used MinscWitch is a LOCALS and GLOBAL * Variable GLOBALkeldornleaves is referenced only 1 times. LOCALS/GLOBAL mixup, plus an additional error of using KeldornLeave and KeldornLeaves. Without the "s" appears to be correct as it's used in subsequent dialogue triggers. REPLACE_ACTION_TEXT_REGEXP ~keldor[jp]~"KeldornLeaves?","\(GLOBAL\)\|\(LOCALS\)"~ ~"KeldornLeave","GLOBAL"~

SP Collection celebrates its one year anniversary with Version 5. Sorcerer's Place Collection - v5 - Archer of Sylvanus can now place proficiency points in the appropriate weapon styles. - Fixed bugs with newer versions of WeiDU failing on the C_E_R patching. - Tightened up some of the patching code.

Support for the standalone Sharpshooter Thief Kit mod has been discontinued as it has been superceded by the Song and Silence mod.

Blindness, SPWI106, mentions a THAC0 penalty but does not have one--or is a THAC0 penalty included as part of the Blindness (74) opcode?

You may get different results after the script and dialogue fixes are done, though.

I'd like to wrap up the dialogue bugs, package together a build with the existing fixes and use it as a 'platform' from whcih we can build, hopefully within a few days. I suspect that eliminating the invalid dialogue and script triggers will go a long way to tracking down the remaining bugs (for example the dialogue fixes also fix the familiar cure medium wounds issue you reported).

Thanks for the kind words. You may be better off searching for the party in the Sea's Bounty that's occurring than speaking with the Thumb.

A couple of other good sources are just using any of the tools in NI for finding broken resrefs, corrupted files, etc. For now I'd request that no one tackle dialogue or script fixes, as I've already got a number of fixes for broken triggers and whatnot already coded--I'm just waiting for WeiDU 168 so I can confirm they work.

If someone could go through the SP Fixpack and see what bugs they fix that are not covered by Baldurdash it would be much appreciated.

Not all of these are legitimate issues--this is more or less a running summary I had kept in the FW Baldurdash forum.

OK, since Dorner stickied his list of pending bug fixes, a number of new bugs have been identified. I tried to put this together to help newcomers and keep bug reports from being duplicated. Not all of these are confirmed. I've tried to be as objective as possible and exclude tweaks. There were also a few calls to include bug fixes from other mods, such as the alignment corrections from Kish's Oversight and the elven Sleep/Charm fixes from aVENGER. OUTSTANDING BUGS Other racial bonuses are also not appearing: thread New warrior-class PC in ToB (fighter, ranger, paladin or barbarian) mising 1/2 attack from same-level continued PC Elementals aren't supposed to be subject to Vorpal decapitation Imported SoA-ToB swashbucklers only gain trapsetting back on level-up, so if the char is dualled from Swashbuckler it never comes back Temple rewards for the Illithium quest make no sense Start a specialist wizard and then dual-class. When the mage class reactivates, the spell table is that of a normal mage, not a specialist As Brus did, Terl and Sir Ryan Trawl (Anomen's quest) would sometimes spawn multiple times when they appeared Very rare bug with non-English BG2's where High Watcher Oisig would continuously respawn in the Athkatlan Temple of Helm Several dragon breath weapons did far too much damage (effect was applied two or more times) due to an incorrect spell projectile definition All other enemy clerics' Harm and Slay Living failed to work as the targeting was incorrect, and they would not attack afterwards so the spell expired Saemon Havarian could be killed by the player in the ship battle, and the transition text/narration afterwards inevitably said he was alive and leaving the scene (as well, he reappears in ToB) Commoners in the Copper Coronet (especially the three in the hidden area halfway to the back) would often go hostile after the battle to free the enslaved gladiators there In the first Copper Coronet battle, one of the enemy guards would appear in the secret entrance to the sewers even if it had not been discovered/opened Non-bard PC refusing to help Haer'Dalis when portal in FF open would receive the playhouse deed afterwards and Higgold would show up, as if they were a bard FIXED BUGS Saemon Havarian would sometimes disappear after sending the player to retrieve the Sea Horn, which broke the quest and forced the player to use the Spellhold portal instead Cutscene on Desharik's stolen ship could break the game when the Gith were attacked by the player/party if AI was on Saemon Havarian would not initiate dialog after the battle with Desharik's pirates for his ship if Desharik died in the battle Anomen's quests would never start for a female protagonist of a race that did not qualify for the romance (half-orc, gnome or dwarf) Ring of Djinni summoning behaves differently than other summoning items: thread - Cam: kinda fixed, see this post The Mimic in the Umar Hills cave was not immune to its own Mimic Glue so would entrap itself The Umar Hills Shade Lord quest would be broken by Protection From Undead and/or cleric Turn Undead affecting Amuana's ghost so that the Wardstone or Symbol of Amaunator was not received If Valygar was imprisoned/petrified and restored before Tolgerias was dead, he would drop his "Valygar's Body" item and it would remain after he rejoined.

The Slayer form can be retained indefinitely through a complicated, multi-step process: thread DART01 is inconsistent with other dart items; also there is an issue as to whether thrown weapons should get strength damage bonuses: thread Cam: strength bonus fixed, apr fixed too Some of the Umar Hills Shadows/Fiends were misclassed as humanoids rather than undead, so Turn Undead, etc. would not work on them 14 more instances of Jon Irenicus' alignment/race being incorrect Spear of the Unicorn is missing protection from hold portrait icon: thread Cavaliers showed "fear" icon in portrait/character sheet though are immune to fear Some potions protect from spell effects but the effect animation still plays: thread Over three hundred spells and items (player's and creatures') and creature definitions contained immunities to effects, but did not suppress the animation, battletext or (for player items) portrait icons of the effects (this sort of thing ought to be settled now) Though Flame Blade's description clearly indicates it strikes as a normal weapon, it was still being blocked by Protection From Magical Weapons, and not by Protection From Normal Weapons Creatures supposed to be unkillable (ie plot-critical) were still vulnerable to death from attribute drain (INT drain of Mind Flayers, and STR drain from Archer Called Shot) (this is fixed, though perhaps too robustly) Several types of Djinni had no melee attack weapon due to invalid item references Phaere was missing her Drow Elven Chain +3 due to an invalid item reference Nishruus/Hakeashars were internally misclassed as Ogre Magi Horror (innate and cast) was giving a +2 bonus to saves that was not in its description Oil of Fiery Burning potion's fire damage was incorrect Cleric/ranger protagonists could never obtain the cleric's temple stronghold and its associated quests (fixed as of v1) Shadow Door, though it provides Improved Invisibility, was not providing the AC/save bonuses that Improved Invisibility does (fixed as of v1) Staff of Power's held/carried icon/graphics were those of a common +2 staff, instead of its own custom graphics, and the icon for its Globe Of Invulnerability was that of the Minor Globe (fixed as of v1) The Staff Of Power's Globe Of Invulnerability could not be removed by spell attacks from enemy mages (similar to the Staff of the Magi's Spell Trap) (fixed as of v1) Multiple problems with Jaheira's romance and Harper quests, some or all may already be addressed with the romance fixes in Ease-of-Use: thread, thread, thread, thread, thread, thread, thread, thread, thread, thread Devas were both of a null non-spellcasting class which overrode their level to 0, so their Dispel Magic would always fail; now are both Cleric classes (as are the Planetars) Healer scripts don't recognize when allies have been dominated/charmed so heal them while fighting them; Planetars' healer scripts are the same if the Planetar is hostile Protection From Undead scroll(s) would cause Kangaxx and Bodhi to be unkillable as they could not deliver their final dialog - Cam: Kangaxx fixed, Bodhi works already Wizard spell Burning Hands is not arc-area-effect (only single target) and may do incorrect damage - Cam: added to OBC Weapon Animations as it's a borderline fix at best DISMISSED "BUGS" Sendai's Harm affected player character(s) at range and without the required successful hit in combat (Demogorgon's also worked the same way, but he is a Prince of Demons after all) - Cam: Difficult to script proper usage with non-ranged harm, left as is Melf's Acid Arrow and Glyph of Warding missing casting sounds. This is a bug in TotSC only, not BGII, hence no need to fix. - Andy AERIEJ and GORODN dialogues are corrupted according to NI: thread Swashbucklers not receiving their +1 THAC0/damage at level 20: thread [13:52] Andyr: Mark is off as not a bug. They do get the bonus, just looked in the CLAB. Mae'Var (Docks thieves' guild leader) was supposed to cast mage spells, but was not able to due to wearing armor; he will now fling it on the ground prior to a battle he initiates [Cam - no one else can take off armor during combat] Minor misclassification of the level 15+ monk fist weapon as a long sword; this seems to have had no effect at all on gameplay - No evidence found Redid prev. fix for Cursed Scroll of Ailment targeting due to minor file corruption in an unused item field; did not affect its function Cam: Appears to work as intended; a BG item at any rate Redid the previous fix for the thrown ability icon of Azuredge; now has new (better-looking) graphic Both Maces Of Disruption and Azuredge's extra damage vs. undead had an undocumented Save. Vs. Spells (with a +6 bonus) so rarely worked; redid Azuredge to give damage as originally defined Neither have save bonuses, Azuredge's damage is correct -- Cam Spells cast from items as well as some innates and abilities should get names: threadCam: Can't be done Flasher Master Bruiser Mates hover in one place perm. if enemy dies before they explode Cam: Would mess with Skull Trap Valygar's Corthala Family Blade katana was not giving a STR bonus to its damage Cam: Many weapons have 3 in the STR bonus field Guardian Bridge 'punishment' monsters dropped unlimited sellable scrolls, gems and +1 two-handed swords A few mages if "chunked" on the final hit while casting Mislead would turn into a spinning chunk that cast spells Time stop cast via the Wish spell affects time stop immune creatures: thread - Seems intended. Wizard Slayer MR: thread - Another issue of character import weirdness. Downed trolls disappear if party rests thread - Cam: Unconfirmed, seems to be a false report Blindness, SPWI106, mentions a THAC0 penalty but does not have one--or is a THAC0 penalty included as part of the Blindness (74) opcode? - Cam: Yes, apparently. UE door not opening thread Vampiric Touch being applied twice thread All weapons with both melee and ranged (hurled) abilities had the same icon for both, so the player could not tell which was selected at a glance from the game screen de'Arnise Keep quest not clearing journal entry thread - Cam: Every string I can find matching the report is being added to the solved quests Three types of rogue traps/snares would sometimes apply their damage effects more than once (several snares allow saving throws to avoid a second chunk of damage which is displayed seperately, not a bug -- Nythrun) Mage Robes of Fire & Cold Resistance were missing resistance resources for magical fire and magical cold respectively (no need to protect from an unused damage type -- Nythrun) Extra 6-8th Level Spell HLA is busted for Sorcerers (it's not, though) Sunstone Bullets had an extraneous (and strange) Slay effect attached (it's there to kill the Shadow Altar, not a bug) Cloak of Non-Detection works differently than the spell of the same name: thread - Cam: no it doesn't Oils of Speed reduce castng time, whereas the item description directly contradicts this: thread(they sure don't in ToB. is this a SoA bug or a non-bug? -- Nythrun) Cam: No, not in SoA either Elminster is missing a few gender tokens in his dialogue with the Game Text Update: thread - Cam: only place where Elminster & Terminsel don't use a token is one line referring to the PC as 'him', but it's only accessible if the Jaheira romance is active Redid previous fix for Cavalier's Resist Fear ability to also bypass M.R. in all resources; was sometimes failing - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here Redid previous fix for Aerie/Quayle dialog loop as editor apps. reported an error with it - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here Multiplayer/player-generated characters didn't have the same options on leaving/rejoining as other NPC's. They can now be asked to rejoin, wait, or go to the Copper Coronet (in SoA areas) or Pocket Plane (in ToB areas.) Also checks for inacessibility of CC in SoA areas. (This will be a bugfix rather than an improvement when applied to SoA as the situation is/was much worse: multiplayer/generated chars. will leave without recourse if kicked out or petrified/imprisoned.) - Cam: intended, also can be changed by BG2 Tweaks The Imp and Quasit familiar were missing the immunity "item" that all other familiars have so were vulnerable to several effects (instead they had an item for immunity to normal weapons but as it was not "worn" it did nothing) - Cam: bug reporter is on crack as no familiars have this item; item is cruft and removed Redid previous fix for Minsc's Berserk as though it worked properly, editor apps. reported an error with it (which fix for spin117 would that be?) - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here All four types of Golem Manual golems would go hostile and attack the player/party if they were attacked or damaged, either deliberately or accidentally, due to a leftover script reference from their enemy counterparts (summons tend to do that, is this really a bug?) Sling of Everard has a bad flag that causes it ot be ignored by EquipMissile calls in scripts: thread - Cam: based on the script he was using to test, appears to be a scripting error Some polymorphed forms can still cast spells: thread - Cam: nothing to suggest this is not intentional XP exploit for turning enemies to stone and repeating: thread - Cam: only solution to this would be awful scripting hacks Player can miss the animal-Trademeet militia battle entering the town: thread - Cam: could be fixed, but we'd have to disable the other entrance point entirely Dryads should mark Windspear Hills on map: thread - Cam: might interfere with Firkraag quest Inconsistent gender references in spell descriptions: thread - Cam: not a bug Haz and golem not appearing thread, thread - Cam: Looked, looked again, and looked some more--can' find anything wrong with the sequence of events here Weapons that add to attacks/round ruin GWW, Dual-wielding messes up WW and GWW HLA's attacks/round - Cam: wrap around issue with ApR stacking. Should look for a more generalized solution. Some of the clerics and mages in Ust Natha would not cast their spells if hostile due to invalid script references Cam: without more detail, hard to say. We've cleaned up the pries* scripts quite a bit, which is what most of them use, so it's likely this is fixed by osmosis. Redid previous fix for Brother Odren dialog loop as editor apps. reported an error with it - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here Paladin stronghold quests would appear incomplete, journal entries weren't removed and the 30,000XP quest reward was missed if paladin protagonist slew Firkraag before the quest was given - Cam: quest is not given if Firkraag is not alive; hence no quest reward should be earned. No journal entries need to be removed, as none are set. Redid previous fix for Cowled Enforcer AI as some spell resources had turned into nulls - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here Some of Anomen's romance interactions would occur even if the romance was terminated - Cam: see berelinde-jastey exchange lower in the thread; appears intentional The dragon in the Abyssal test presenting the "good" path reward appears intended as a Silver, but had a Black Dragon avatar/class/alignment - Cam: sure, but probably more UB than a fix Redid previous fix for Mordenkainen's Sword Invisibility Exploit as editor apps. reported an error with it - Cam: leftover note from Dorner, doesn't apply here If the troll Grae was instantly slain with Crom Faeyr or by other means, the Limited Wish quest could not be finished - Cam: don't break out the insta-kill stuff creatures from whom you need information, m'kay? Minor oversight with Tirlana's conversation with Keldorn where it is not checked if Keldorn's wife is imprisoned - Cam: dialogue is vague enough to be valid even if Maria is imprisoned Party checks on CN Anomen's first ToB banter with Imoen were missing - Cam: can not find any Imoen-Anomen ToB banters. Other Anomen banters in ToB have party checks AFAICT. If Valygar was stealthed on arriving to his own home, his servant Hervo would call the guards and Valygar would go hostile even if he spoke directly to Hervo - Cam: Hervo's not a lich; if you want him to see Valygar, don't make Valygar invisible Vithal (Underdark mage) would try to "help" the player by casting fire-damage spells on the Fire Elemental guardian - Cam: silly, but intended If Valygar was made an enemy when not in the party, he would sometimes stop attacking and freeze when severely injured - Cam: can't find anything to support this Hendak would (uncommonly) disappear/move from his place at the Copper Coronet after being freed (very likely solved but could not be definitely verified) - Cam: can not replicate Nyalee's ritual would (uncommonly) fail to remove Yaga-Shura's invincibility, so the game could not be finished - Cam: can not replicate A few enemy clerics would attack their allies and follow the protagonist without doing anything due to scripting omissions - Cam: without more detail, can't really examine. Could also be solved by existing corrections to pries* scripts. If the Ust Natha Drow slave trader was spoken to after buying slaves, they would never appear out of their cages - Cam: tested, works fine Minor error with the Solamnic Knights adding a journal entry about the golem even after player had starting assembling it - Cam: journal entry is not inapproproiate HARDCODED AND UNFIXABLE Time stop issues: thread, thread - Cam: hardcoded behavior of timestop Characters polymorphed into trolls via Cloak of Sewers have bad animation: thread - Cam: side effect of the polymorph opcode. Shapeshifted PC/NPC can dual-wield (magically created weapons cannot be two-handed, scripting FillSlot would destroy rather than unequip, doing a drop-pickup routine would be fragile and slow) Charged items and Bags of Holding interact unexpectedly: thread (stores are OMGHRADCODED, can't fix) Exploit of re-equipping items that add to CON to heal char. (confirmed) - Cam - hardcoded, nothing can be done here. Characters sometimes have an additional die of HP upon creation: thread Imported characters also have strange HPs: thread Remove Paralysis does not remove hold animation: thread

I'm still taking a bit of a break from Delainy, as I'm sure y'all have noticed. I'm done with new tweak packs, hope to get together with Andy this coming weekend to push out a new CR, and then I shall be ready to return to Del. In the meatime, I would be more than happy to answer any coding questions you have if you're interested.

Q: What is the purpose of this forum? A: This forum is intended as a place for the latest news and information on Infinity Engine modding to be published. Q: What are the long-term goals of this project? A: A true, cross-community news source that will allow users a one-stop location for news. Q: Will this news be available in other formats? A: Yes. One of the key facets of this project is its syndication into an RSS feed: https://www.gibberlings3.net/rss/1-infinity-engine-modding-news.xml An RSS feed will allows users to monitor Infinity Engine happenings without the need to visit the wide variety of IE modding sites. Alternatively, registered users can also use the forum software's built-in subscription feature, which will send you an email whenever someone posts a new topic in the forum. Q: Why can't I start topics? A: Because the forum is being syndicated into an RSS feed, the ability to start topics is being limited to a handful of folks. Essentially anyone tagged with a 'modder' tag on G3 can post updates to the forum which will be turned into news items in the feed. If you have published mods and would like to make announcements, contact one of the admins here on G3 with a PM or ping us on Discord. Q: Why can't I respond to topics? A: Again, since the forum itself is being syndicated into an RSS feed we're trying to limit the number of posts and cut down the RSS feed to its core news items. Each topic should also have links to places where you can ask questions and discuss the news item on the respective forum. Q: What sorts of news will be covered here? A: For modders, we hope to encourage tool makers to post items when a tool (such as Near Infinity or DLTCEP) or a resource (such as IESDP or .dat files) gets updated. For players, we hope to include a broader range of topics--such as announcements of new mods, mod releases and updates, requests for testers, and other items. Q: It looks like you're missing news from X? A: If we're missing news that should be covered, please contact CamDawg via PM. It is not our wish to exclude sites or relevant news items; we wish for this to reach and apply to as broad an audience as possible. Q: Can I incorporate the RSS feed into my site? A: Yes, please! SHS, Weasel Mods, and Sorcerer's Place already incorporate the news feed into their forums. All we ask is that you offer a link to G3 as the originator of the feed.

It's not possible, sorry. You could replace the sorcerer (I believe this is what hlid does with the Druidic Sorcerer mod) but that's about the limit of what you can accomplish.
