Here's a somewhat fixed file
- fixed the string references (5 strings... with translations... unused since the beginning of time )
- Changed the ActionOverride(LastAttackerOf(Myself),Kill(Myself)) to a very straightforward ActionOverride(Myself,Kill(Myself))

Spoiler

IF
	Global("Cb_ZannasterCutFix","AR3532",1)
	Global("Cb_Cult_Of_Dragon_Demise","GLOBAL",0)
	Global("Cb_ZannastersDeathSpellTrigger","LOCALS",0)
	HP(Myself,1)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100

		Wait(2)
		DestroyItem("IMOENHP1") // Imoen's Belt
		EndCutSceneMode()
	   ActionOverride(Myself,Kill(Myself))
END

I've two question

1.
When i compile this script, I got the errors because seems that at my Near Infinity no like "@"
Instead If remove "@" I no error!!

For example:
DisplayStringHead(Myself,@550306) // (hissss) NoooOOooo!! (error)
DisplayStringHead(Myself,550306) // (hissss) NoooOOooo!! (right)

2.
Why in my game I've "No such Index" after "//"??
Example:
DisplayStringHead(Myself,550306) // No such index

I'll get problem during Zannaster Cuscene due to "No such index"?????


Thanks in advance

The @'s are used by WeiDU to replace strings based on the translation (from the TRA files)

You'll need to Search -> StringRef in NI and find the exact string you want displayed (in this case, the italian translation of "(hissss) NoooOOooo!!")and put the corresponding StringRef number into the DisplayStringHead()

Thanks Lollorian!! I'll remove "@" when I''l compile the script!!

Done, but I haven't this strings "(hissss) NoooOOooo!!")" and others in my italian "dialog.tlk".
It's strange because I translated this mod in italian language and the "script.tra" (where are this strings) has been translated too.
Can I add this strings using near Infinity or is better let it be? I'll get problem scene due to "No such index"?

[Lollorian]

Make sure you backup your dialog.tlk before you do this (especially if your NI, Java is not up to date)

1. In NI, Edit -> dialog.tlk
2. Click Add and add your new string (and note down the stringref number)
3. Go to your BCS and put in new stringref number in the DisplayStringHead() (don't bother with the comment )
4. Compile and save (and overwrite if need be)
5.

Thank you Lol

PS: For curiosity, but if I no add the strings what happen...??

[Lollorian]

The DisplayStringHead() will still fire and if there's no string for the stringref number inside the brackets, you'll get no string in your game (I think... I mean, I hope it doesn't crash)

Which means you'll have to play your game without awesome text-based hissing sound effects and other audio cues that are shown as text Well there goes your immershun...

I think it doesnt't crash because I've others script with "others no such index" in my game and so far I not get Crash to Desktop ...!!!

I'll try to play with "No such index", I'll take risks

Copy all files that hit the regex RR.*LM\.BMP from RoTerror/BMP into your override (something probably didn't copy proper )

[HERD]

Was trying to steal scroll and cloak in the "chores" part, turns out there's a bug in area scripts AR3504 and AR3505.  They check if Global("CbChoresTheft","GLOBAL",1) but there's no action changing the value of "CbChoresTheft", so that CBSTLKP1.cre never ends spawning

CBRYBREL.baf:

IF
	See("CBRYBERG")
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		SetGlobal("CbRybergMeetsRelative","GLOBAL",1)
		Wait(2)
		StartDialogueNoSet("CBRYBERG")
END

Obvious error is obvious.
Infinite dialogue loop guarantee, it should obviously be:

IF
	See("CBRYBERG")
        GlobalLT("CbRybergMeetsRelative","GLOBAL",1)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		SetGlobal("CbRybergMeetsRelative","GLOBAL",1)
		Wait(2)
		StartDialogueNoSet("CBRYBERG")
END

Previous successful completions of that quest are pure luck of the player, wouldn't surprise me in the least if the other quests have a similar potential for hiccups.

Hi everybody, 

I'm actually facing a bug in the Vampire Master's quest. In the Neng's horses ranch I met Vernon in his barn which revealed himself to be a vampire.  I agree to bring all his family in coffins with cursed hearth in the  AKTHAKLA in the cimetary exactly in former BODHI's lair. All of this bynight of course (by day all 7 items get destroyed...and so the quest). 

But once arrived in Bodhi lair (stairs down right on the big table in the catacombs) nothing happens.... As far as I've read rare topics about it Vernon is supposed to reappear, thanking me and giving me the place where is Master Vampire "live".   I've tried to place coffins and hearth in former BODHI's lair or directly on the ground but with no result.

I'm suspecting a big bug in that...

Here is my weidu log. I know i'ts the one of a big big mega mod but I'm really suspecting a bug only due to CTB.

I don't necessary need a big change in the file to fix it forever I only need to continue a more than six month in real time adventure...

Wouldn't it be nice to have the right  CLUACode with some  SET GLOBAL.... to get triggering the right event , would it ?

I'm able using N.I whit some step by step instructions but I' really don't understand how those program works.  the "why, who, where and how to fix it" is far from my understanding.

Thx by advance.

 

For my weidu log please see the attached file caus it's too big to simply copy paste...

 

Here is  with N.I some info about the vernon creature file

If you have save before entering Bodhi's Lair (AR0809) check (Shadowkeeper or NI) that global "CbVampireSubQuestStart" is "3".

[colonel klinck]

Hi,

Problem begins. How do I check that ?

[micbaldur]

Use Shadowkeeper (get it here).

 

Or use NI. From right side open save folder and then "right" save. Click Baldur.Gam and you see variables center screen. Scroll down to "c".

[colonel klinck]

Sorry for lmy ast (stupid)  question. I found it. Here is the result copied/pasted from N.I 

• Variable name: CBVAMPIRESUBQUESTSTART,Unknown: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 h,Variable value: 3, 

[micbaldur]

Well that global is ok then.

 

Do you have 3 Cursed Earth (CBVMPDR1.ITM, CBVMPDR2.ITM and CBVMPDR3.ITM) and 3 Vampire Coffin (CBVMPCF1.ITM, CBVMPCF2.ITM and CBVMPCF3.ITM) in you inventory in that same save?

 

Do you know how to check local variable at AR0809 if you do check "CbVampireFamilyMoved" is "0".

[colonel klinck]

Yes but not exactly. I'v exactly 3 cursed earth and 4 vampire coffins... named CBVMPDR1.ITM to CBVMPDR3.ITM and CBVMPCF1.ITM to CBVMPCF4.ITM.

 

I don't really know what is "to check local variable at AR0809 if you do check "CbVampireFamilyMoved" is "0". Could you reformulate the question ?

[colonel klinck]

Hum, 

I suppose having quite mainly  understood your question . So I checked in the local ARE folder with N.I. in the file : AR0809.BCS and see that (with other things...) :

[micbaldur]

Well actually you are right about 4 coffins, my mistake. Sorry. But inventory ok then.

 

Go downstairs to Bodhi's Lair (AR0809). Then make quicksave. Open NI (or if you have NI already opened then "Refresh Tree" from Game tab at upper left corner).

 

Open save folder and then "Quick-Save" folder. To check local variables you need to open Baldur.sav instead of Baldur.gam. Decompres SAV file, select AR0809.ARE and click "View/Edit". AR0809 opens click "Edit" tab and scroll down to variables. Click "CbVampireFamilyMoved" and check value. If it's "0" that's bad but if it's "1" then Vernon be there somewhere.

 

Edit: Not that ARE folder.
