@Lollorian: you think you're confused - ??????????! - I think I will avoid the other forum for now, - these issues are bad enough in English without trying to discuss them in German!!

 

@dabus: from what you are saying it sounds as though some BWS selections, eg: Party members can facestab too!, need to be installed using the original command line approach in order to make any but the first, or default, selection - ?  ie: the BWS script is written to assume an optimal selection for some components and anything outside of that will not be installed.

 

Also, I already have the IWD Item Pack but, for anyone who does not already have it, it is no longer available. - I did find the forum link, along with other links, but all are dead or of the download installer and end-up with a shed load of spyware, trojans, and backdoors variety.  Additionally, I have read through the trow.cc forum posts and am fairly certain that both Nameless Melody Inn and NMR-Happy Patch are no longer available through the forum. - I have already obtained several other mods from the same forum, though, including the Legion of Hell and something to do with an underground city and an anime style character.

BPv180 and Innate_Fix changed to use horred the plague's awesome BCS patching code (so no longer requires shitty exclusion lists )
BPv180 also had a small change made with respect to the KIT.IDS patching part to accomodate ToBEx's new wildmage unlocking magicness
 
Also, some random items I found in my travels

KonTwk\Items\K0BARREL.ITM
- Loads of of bonus resists set to 100% of existing value (which actually had no effect in-game because 100% of something doesn't actually change the value :lol:) Now increments everything to 100 like the other resists

DarkHorizons\BGT\items\CMBRQ06.ITM
DarkHorizons\items\CMBRQ06.ITM
- Set Move Silently and Pickpockets to 20 when it should have incremented

TheUndying\items\COMKFC02.ITM
- Should play EFF_P26.WAV when consumed like the other KFC items from the mod

Also, IWD Item pack?

Last OT here:

@Test Person: I don't understand if you did not understand what I wanted to describe, if I was just unclear or you want something different.
So I'll try to rephrase it:
1) The BWS reads all actions it should take from a cvs-file.
2) That file contains a column that has four digits in it. They represent the four default BWP-preselections (recommended, standard, tactic and expert).
Every digit can be 0 or 1. 1 means that it will be selected when the selection-GUI is build.
3) I also included some components or mods that are optional, thus every digit in that column is 0.
4) If you click on the tree of a multiple-choice entry, the BWS will look up your current selection for click-property (it's usually your selected BWP-preselection, but you can change that during the selection).

Example:
Lets assume the selection.txt looks like that:
MUC;A;Select;12;1111;
MUC;A;1;12;0110;
MUC;A;2;12;1000;
MUC;A;3;12;0001;

The entries would be
@1=Ranger Kits-> Make him a default ranger
@2=Ranger Kit -> Make him a stalker
@3=Ranger Kit -> Make him a beast master

So if you had a recommended install, you'd get the stalker as a default if you clicked on the Ranger Kits tree. Standard or Tactic would be a stalker, expert gets a beast master.

So back to your optional facestabbing-issue:

MUC;tb#tweaks;Select;16;0000;
MUC;tb#tweaks;8500;16;0000;
MUC;tb#tweaks;8550;16;0000;

@8500=Party Members can facestab too! -> Always
@8550=Party Members can facestab too! -> Only when under the effect of Non-Detection

If you selected recommended, and click on the Party Members can facestab too!-tree, BWS will look up what would be selected in a recommended install. Since you don't have a pre-selection here (optional content that would not be installed in any selection), BWS tells you that and just selects the first option.

5) If you select one of the multiple-choice entries beneath the tree, it just gets selected as usual.

@Lol: Click on the link and you get a "Sorry, you don't have permission for that!".

Thanks for the explanation, - I think I can see what is happening, now.

BiG World Fixpack 1.3 has been released.

[Kaeloree]

Would someone be able to PM or email it to me? Nobody seems to be updating it here on SHS despite the downloads being fixed, and I'd love to get the new version up! I'd grab it myself but alas seem to be one of the people to whom the domain is denied.

Try this link: http:// kerzenburg.baldurs-gate.eu/downloads.php?cat=10 (and, yes, it has a space after the http://, which needs to be removed when you use the link )

 

If that fails just send me an email address I can send a copy to.

Nope, I'm denied access. It's not the first time I've heard of someone having this issue with them, though it is a bit frustrating:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /downloads.php on this server.

Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) Server at kerzenburg.baldurs-gate.eu Port 80

If you could email it to liam.esler@gmail.com that'd be sweet.

[Kaeloree]

And updated, thanks Test Person

[ScuD]

Please fix the name, it is not 11.3.7 but 11.3. This will cause confusion.

[Kaeloree]

But confusion is what I like best! I mean, haven't you seen the layout of this forum?

 

Done

Done  

 

Anyone notice how good we are all being on this subject?

 

Also, I made a mistake in my update to K'aeloree. - The latest BiG World Fixpack-11.3.7z does address the error in the setup-dsotsc.tp2 file; however, there are still items in the DSoTSC mod which fail to patch correctly, as shown in the following setup-dsotsc.tp2.rej file:

Sure patching would fail since that's using 2.16 as a basis if you used the current 2.17 dsotsc.

Yes, - that was it, - my archived file had been removed and replaced with the latest version, - thanks.

 

...so could we have the fixpack updated to take account of DSotSC 2.17, then?

Throne of Bhaal Refinements no longer seems to have its own post (c'mon Lol, - I just know you will put me right on this one! ), so I have posted this bug here ...so something can be incorporated into the next fixpack, if it hasn't already:

Not found for COPY seems to suggest something deleted the file Can you check your override for it please? Also, try copying the 2DA from within murneth's folder into the override before installing refinements if it's not there

 

The real fix would be to find the prickly  mod that deleted the file though...

I think the prickly mod may have already been found, - Dabus has indicated that BWS is overdue for an overhaul (so a number of files have open issues with it, along with a number of mods which are not available using BWS because they don't like them ) and, apparently, several annoyances have already been fixed in the standard BWP install, but won't be addressed in BWS until Dabus has the time to update it.

 

I will update you further on this once I know what the situation is with our latest BWP install, which I am currently working on.

 

 

General note: there is a revised Item Revisions, and the IWD Item Pack is available again on the Gibberlings 3 site. - Has anyone got a copy of the Touchstone NPC mod or NMR Happy Patch (definitely not available on trow.cc any longer as a standalone patch)?

Thank-you very much. - Hopefully CamDawg or theacefes will manage to grab a copy, too, seeing as they are currently missing from the G3 site.

If I'm not totally wrong, g3 never hosted those files.
