  1. Ah that is unfortunate, if the answer I expected. I would actually be plenty satisfied with an external tool, that I could just periodically run out-of-game, and it would just sort the bags it find in the save game, if that would make it any more possible. I don't really have the skills or motivation to reverse-engineer the raw memory, but if weidu can let me work at level of programming closer to the surface I'd be interested in learning more about it. I did take a look at weidu but didn't go too far since I'm not super experienced with command-line scripting, just conventional programming. Thanks for the response, even if it's not what I was hoping to hear! The more I delve into the code of the game the more I feel like it could benefit from a complete re-working of the engine as a whole, made with good programming technique and some foresight. Probably never gonna happen, but a guy can dream.
  2. Heya, so one of the cruxes of my gameplay is spending excessive amounts of time looking through my containers for scrolls/potions/items that i have saved up for certain situations. One of the things that I have always loved about Minecraft is the inventory sorting mod, and wanted to try and make something similar for BG. I have looked a little into modding tutorials (many of the links are broken from the collections i found), and also have some coding background to work with. I have primarily only looked at scripting thus far, but it looks possible? There are a few things I was having trouble figuring out and wanted to ask directly. 1) Is there a way to access a player's inventory items, and their properties? I.e. I want to check if the user has any inventory items whose in-game name contain the string "holding", or for items with the item flag "short sword". This will be important for both checking what containers are in the inventory as well as whatever sorting algorithms I settle on using. 2) Is there a way to access a container in a player's inventory such that I can add or remove items directly to/from it? Relating to the sorting idea, I basically just want to save all the contents of my bags as a csv or something so i can then sort it with bubble or whatever and then put it back in in the new ordering. 3) Is there a better way to go about doing this? Scripting seems like the most viable avenue, but perhaps there's something that will be better to use than the DLTCEP script editor? Any recommendations in this area are appreciated. And of course, it is possible that this already exists and I'm being a moron and am just not able to find it. In that case I would greatly appreciate direction towards it, though would also like answers to the questions above for my own curiosity and education. Thanks! Bard
  3. I definitely have not opted into any beta stuff. I will double check to confirm and will let you know if I actually did somehow. EDIT: No betas are opted into.
  4. Yes, Modmerge.exe was placed in the BGEE folder where the dlc/sod-dlc.zip was located. Likely the most recent version of the EE games, I might try to figure out how to roll back the games through steam to the previous patch.
  5. Yes, I used the 12.2 download on K4thos' github page, and the zip is called "EET-1.0RC12.2.zip", and the extracted folder is "EET-1.0RC12.2". I tried it again with a new copy of the modmerged game files and a fresh download of the EET zip from the github and got the same result. Based on what I wrote in my step-by-step, is there somewhere I likely made a mistake? Or is this a new/unsolved bug? Attmept 2, abridged log
  6. I am clearly doing something wrong, as other people haven't had trouble, but I'm not sure what it is exactly that I'm messing up. Any help appreciated! My order of operations: 1. Download BGEE+SOD and BGEE2 from steam, and start the games and make saves for BGEE, SOD, BG2EE and TOB 2. Copy both folders from common and paste them into a brand new folder on my hard drive (C://Games) 3. Make two copies of the unmodified games. 4. Modmerge one of the copies by putting Modmerge.exe inside the BGEE folder and running it. 5. Make a copy of the modmerged version 6. Extract the EET zip and copying its contents to the BG2 inside the copy of the modmerged version 7. Run the setup-EET.exe
