There are some slight problems with that actually

1) I just modify the actual files for installation, the BWPFixpack uses unified diff .patch files created by Leonardo Watson
2) Maintaining a github project on this would mean I'll need to keep a close watch on updated mod releases to deprecate patches that are already applied within the updated mod, which would mean... ummmm Ok I admit I'm a lazy ass

The best person to maintain this on github/sourceforge or whatever would be Leonardo Watson (who knows? maybe he already has )

... on a side note - I maintain the BWPBorkpack in github (yeah I know... it's stupid )

@berelinde: I knew I'd forgotten something I'll just boom boom on reporting those spell fixes to their forums then aye?

[i30817]

I just gave a alternative to haunt the thread, and all issues were already reported (one in 2008).

I think you're overreacting - people generally report in both places, i try to do.

2) Maintaining a github project on this would mean I'll need to keep a close watch on updated mod releases to deprecate patches that are already applied within the updated mod, which would mean... ummmm Ok I admit I'm a lazy ass

It would just fail as already applied unless the mod fix was different and applied somewhere else than the patch AND you are extremely unlucky so that it applies cleanly to the targeted code - no different than today when a new version comes after a version of the fixpack.

Granted it's a good idea to prune once in a while. But it needs not be after every new version of 40 mods. Twice a year maybe.

Umm... I think you confuse me with the maintainer of the BWPFixpack (*cough* Leonardo Watson *cough*) I have no stake in the BWP... just contribute small stuff here and there

You might wanna propose the GitHub idea in the main BWP thread for the BWP peeps to take a gander

[i30817]

Ah, but you're the current main maintainer, whether you know it, or not.

It would be much more efficient for you to edit the files, create the patch by diffing the pristine mod and commit the diffs to the repository rather than just posting in this thread, for Leonardo to see, then create a patch, then wait until he has enough fixes to create a new version.

But ok, i won't bother you anymore.

Lol bothering, you were not I'm known to shirk responsibility at the drop of a hat... but I won't go there

Anyway, this suddenly became a hot thread and it's made the attachments feel ignored For reference, BWPFixpack v10.2.1 needs to get stuff from here onwards

[Kaeloree]

Guys, I--and several others--have made it very clear that mods are not to be redistributed without the author's consent here on SHS, and many modders have asked the same for their mods over the internet. It's just common courtesy.

If you want to distribute fixes, that's fine, but do not redistribute mods without the author's consent. It's disrespectful to the work modders have put into mods.

PLEASE post bug-fixes in mod forums. You might not think the mods are maintained, but a lot of the time someone is actually around to repackage them at some point -- especially over at G3.

Cheers.

And finally, Vecna's Dead() triggers were borked Made them use State() for STATE_REALLY_DEAD from the BG2fixpack... which implies that this fix is BWP-only (unless jube wants to make Vecna dependant on the BG2Fixpack )

Isn't necessary - you can check the same state with a numeric factor (forget what it is offhand, maybe 4032 but I think you've done the same in other modfixes no? - btw that's a semi-rhetoric question since I very rarely check this thread and probably won't see the answer ).

I don't know exactly how BWP is organized, so I'll just drop it in Item Revisions v3 beta 1.6
The tooltip bug does be fixed there.

Hello EveryBodhi !!!

First post on the forum !

Just a little question:
Are SCS and SCSII folders still needed in BW Fixpack v10.3.5 with SCS v.20 & SCSII v.20 mods ?

Thanks for your answer.

Haven't tried it yet but I'd reckon yes they're all compatible
