Hello aVENGER,

As I'm analysing .D files of your mod to ease the proofreading of the french translation (which is almost done, thanks to the D'Oghmatiques), I noticed some possible mistakes :

1) At first, some orthographical mistakes :
@2105 : there's a " at the beginning, but not at the end
@2623 : Don not...

2) I saw no link for @663 in RR#GAELB. But I guess, it must be here :

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN z3
SAY @1310
=
@1311
=
@1312
IF ~~ THEN DO ~SetGlobal("RR#ARLED_JOURNAL","GLOBAL",4)
EraseJournalEntry(@653)~ EXIT

Also, I think to have noticed that you erase sometimes the journal entry for the quest of Arledrian, but don't write in it after.

3) I didn't see any link for @652 which is a journal entry.

4) I didn't see any link for the journal entry @664.


Well, that's all for the moment... but I'm going on this analysis.

FIXED in v3.61

A small bug with Marina's AI script is present in RR v3.6. The script will simply fail to compile unless the "Super Happy Fun Lucky Modder Pack" of G3 BG2 Fixpack is present. However, this has no significant impact on the gameplay. Marina will merely fail to flee if she is attacked.

I'm analysing the CoC Encounter and maybe there's a problem with the .D of RR#Zaer or RR#Seli :

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 1
SAY @2082
=
@2083
=
@2084
=
@2085
IF ~OR(2)
Race(Player1,ELF)
Race(Player1,HALF_ELF)~ THEN GOTO 2
IF ~!Race(Player1,ELF)
!Race(Player1,HALF_ELF)~ THEN DO ~AddXPObject(Player1,750)~ EXTERN ~RR#SELI~ 2
END

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 2
SAY @2086
=
@2087
IF ~~ THEN DO ~AddXPObject(Player1,750)~ EXTERN ~RR#SELI~ 2
END

But there's no BEGIN 2 in RR#Seli.D

--------------------------------------------

There's the same kind of thing between RR#Seli.D and RR#GROK.D :

IF ~~ THEN BEGIN 7
SAY @2066
=
@2067
IF ~~ THEN DO ~AddXPObject(Player1,500)~ EXTERN ~RR#GROK~ 4

And there's no BEGIN 4 in RR#Grok.D !

I stop here, I didn't check the others .D files of the Venduris' friends. Are these things a problem or not ?

[aVENGER]

No worries, these are not bugs. When the .D files get compiled everything works out properly, i.e. it doesn't actually matter whether I write BEGIN 1, BEGIN 10 or BEGIN 1000 in the .D file, the .DLG still compiles properly.

BTW, you can easily test those banters during the CoC encounter via the "(Stall Venduris for a moment to quickly examine the tactical options of this situation)" dialogue line and you'll see that they all work.

[Graoumf]

Ok thanks !
And... heu... sorry...

[aVENGER]

Heh, it's ok. I'd much rather have a few false positives reported to me than a bunch of real bugs left in the unknown.

If you notice anything else that seems even remotely suspicious feel free to report.

aVenger,

you might be interested to know that NI reports some errors about a script I believe belongs to you (RR#CGRAV.BCS).

The error is:

Invalid Area String: S:Area* - "RR#AR01"

at lines 38,39,40,41,42,44

I know nothing about modding but perhaps you might get some clues out of it.

[aVENGER]

aVenger,

you might be interested to know that NI reports some errors about a script I believe belongs to you (RR#CGRAV.BCS).

It's a harmless NI related warning which comes from the fact that my area doesn't follow the ARxxxx naming format. Most other modders use a similar approach and name their areas with their own prefix. Anyhow, there's no need to worry, WeiDU compiles the .BAF properly and everything works fine in-game.

Apparently, the NI warning comes up because the name of my CoC area is longer than 6 characters in v3.71. <- Fixed as of v3.8

Hello aVenger!

Some scripting issues:

RR#GAELN.BCS

"GALEAN2" should be "GAELAN2"

RR#ZAER.BCS

"RR#BODAK" should be "RR#BODK"

Plus there are some missing resources:

RR#010.BCS is missing AM307TT2 , AM307TT3 , Guillotine1 and Guillotine2

Cheers!

[aVENGER]

Thanks Salk!

In case anyone's interested, the first bug (the misspelling of GAELAN2) could potentially lead to receiving the 12500 XP for acquiring Gaelan's key even if he was killed beforehand (instead of getting the XP for successfully pickpocketing his key). The second bug (the misspelling of RR#BODK) will cause Zaeron to call Bodak for help after being struck by a miscast magic effect, even if Bodak is already dead. The third bug is merely a report of missing ambient sounds. All in all, the errors are fairly harmless and can only occur under rare circumstances. They won't impact the gameplay in a significant way. <- FIXED AS OF RR V3.82

I've just realized that a small bug can occur if the party steals Arledrian's dagger, sides with the Shadow Thieves, refuses to help Arledrian fight off the vampires in the crypts and a partymember currently wields Silverblaze at the same time (i.e. if the dagger is currently inside an active weapons slot). In that particular case, Arledrian's dialogue will abruptly end with the dreaded NO VALID LINKS OR REPLIES line.

This should be a fairly rare situation though, and I've already fixed the bug locally. The temporary workaround is to unequip the Silverblaze dagger (i.e. remove it from the active weapon slot) before encountering Arledrian in the crypts. <- FIXED AS OF RR V3.9

Hey, I think I found a bug in this mod

I'm currently working with Bodhi, in which she told me to do the final task(kill Aran Linvail). However, once I got to the Docks District I can't seem to go into the Shadow Thief Guildhall. The door icons simply aren't there! I tried reinstalling the mod but it still didn't work. My only other mod as of far is Unfinished Busniess.

Did you start a new game after installing Rogue Rebalancing? As noted in this thread the "Shadow Thief Improvements" and the "Chosen of Cyric" components won't work properly if you install the mod mid-game. Just in case, please post the contents of your WeiDU.log.

There is an incomplete edit in

http://rogue.rebalan...for_Thieves_and

Besides adding a dozen of brand new items, Marina's shop also restores several lost items from BG1 (i.e. the Dagger of Venom). party, a few of the new items are also accessible in the BG1 portion of the game for BG1Tutu and BGT players.

[aVENGER]

Nice catch, I'll update that passage in the Readme when I get the chance. For reference, it's supposed to read:

This component will introduce a new store which offers many items that can be of great use to Thieves and Bards. All of these items can be purchased from Marina, the Black Market merchant, who resides on the main floor of the Shadow Thief guild. Besides adding a dozen of brand new items, Marina's shop also restores several lost items from BG1 (i.e. the Dagger of Venom). In return, a few of the new items are also accessible in the BG1 portion of the game for BG1Tutu and BGT players. Furthermore, a new quest involving Arledrian (the fence who resides on the top floor of Gaelan Bayle's house) will be added as well. Finally, this component will also alter the Short Sword of Backstabbing so that it matches its PnP counterpart more closely.

EDIT - FIXED as of RR v4.01

[aVENGER]

To post your WeiDU.log, open it with Notepad and then simply copy the textual contents and paste them here. For reference, that file is located in your BG2 folder.

Furthermore, in this particular case it would be helpful if you could also send me a savegame which was made shortly before the bug occurred (i.e. right before entering the Five Flagons tavern) in case you still have one. You can send it via e-mail to rogue.rebalancing@gmail.com

Ok, I got your save and was able recreate the bug. It can only happen in very rare instances when the Protagonist has an exceptionally high Lore score but an Intelligence score below 10. This will be fixed in the next release. In the meanwhile, have your Protagonist drink a Potion of Genius (most temples have a few of those for sale) before he acquires Arledrian's Journal and you should be able to get through the dialogue unhindered.

BTW, your install order is slightly suboptimal as Tactics and Quest Pack need to go before Rogue Rebalancing. Check the Compatibility Guide for more details. Also, I'm glad you enjoyed the CoC encounter.
