Issues solved from 2.10:

- Faster Romances -> "Light" is actually "Casanova fast".


How to apply: overwrite tb#tweaks/tb#tweaks with the attached file (please note that you need to change _ into # in the filename because the forum software sucks).

EDIT: it occurs to me that this hotfix was incorporated in the mods' build some years ago.

Perhaps, also, a more descriptive thread title...

[the bigg]

Suggestions for more descriptive thread title? Reasons why the current one isn't enough?

[Azazello]

bigg, your alias carries a lot of prominence. When people read "My BG2 run-thru", many will respond "Ho-hum."
But when the title says "THE bigg's BG2 run-thru", the populace runs-skips-cartwheels to see the details.

"the bigg's TBTweaks Hotfixes" ???

Or if you continue to want humility, "TBTweaks Hotfixes"

'my' is enough to my ego, no need to say Bigg's (which is evident from the poster's name). Besides, I believe that, in today's arena of five hundred overlapping and conflicting mods, playing a full game and keeping a journal of bugs and issues is a particularly helpful way to keep track of what problems arise with what. Ideally, we should have a forum where players can keep a full log of their playthrough (mods, issues found) so that newbies can get inspiration on what works and what not, and we can have statistical evidence for the harder compatibility bugs.

I believe that the fixes being for TBTweaks is self-evident from the fact that they're posted in the relevant forum. Similarly, my name is semi-obvious from the fact that I'm the author of TBTweaks.

That's actually not a bad idea.

My bad, all of this would have been clearer if I had stated upfront I'm seeing the titles from RSS feed!

I think it is a great idea! Let's do it!!

Seconded/thirded/whatever...

Hoppy, erebusant, MM75, etc. all had great ideas with their runthrough posts - basically, developer/tester logs for modders to see what is going on. It might be great to have posts like

EASYTUTU: person1's install

BGT: person2's install

BP/BGT: person3's install

I think the idea is great - I would mention, though, that in times of stress/lack of time, I only visit immediate responsibilities. Having a BGT install thread in the BGT forum pobably makes it easier for people to see and report what they know and how they fixed it. But, like the "Post your WeiDU.log" thread at PPG, I think this idea would gather good data, even if only a few people participated.

Forum Titles [I have been serious up to this point, but now couldn't resist some fun...]
"Pimp My BG/BG2 Game"?
"Iron Installer"?
"Trading ModLogs"?
"World Wide Modder Wrestling"?
"Infinityland"?
"The Quick And The Bugged"?
"B.O.R.G. - Builds Of Riteous Games"?
"Bughouse"?
"Ozmandius"? {Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here}
"Wonders of WeiDU Wizardry Woken"?

[Kaeloree]

Playthrough forum thirded, and about to bring up with the Staff.

I think it's good for another reason--comments on mods. The more we can get, the better.

Ouch, agreed then

In fact, I don't use the forums' RSS feeds for this very reason.

Forum Titles [I have been serious up to this point, but now couldn't resist some fun...]

"Wonders of WeiDU Wizardry Woken"?

I like these two
