My game crashed consistently with this option activated, whenever I tried to use atweaks scribe scroll ability.

I believe that this component might a problem invisible and/or unnamed creatures initiating dialogue.

(ToBEx was at the very end of my installation, but this specific problem is related to that.)

I am unfamiliar with aTweaks.
Can you describe what scribe scroll is and what happens in the game when you scribe a scroll? Also, what normally shows up in the dialogue bar when you scribe?

Can reproduce. The game crashes immediately before the dialogue window appears when using Scribe Scrolls. Occurs only with 'Log Dialogue Bar=1'.

Can you describe what scribe scroll is and what happens in the game when you scribe a scroll?

Basically, the component grants mages of 9th level or higher an innate ability, 'Scribe Scrolls', which can be used at will. The ability summons an invisible creature, who is scripted to order the caster to initiate dialogue with him- or herself. The dialogue, itself, allows the player to spend gold, depending on spell level, to scribe one of the caster's memorised spells onto a scroll (i.e., removing the spell from memory and creating the corresponding scroll in the caster's inventory).

Also, what normally shows up in the dialogue bar when you scribe?

This is an example of what should show up...

PAUSED
Shei- Scribe Scrolls : Shei
Shei- Auto-Paused: Spell Cast
UNPAUSED

Shei- (This ability allows an experienced spellcaster to scribe a spell from her spellbook onto a scroll. Only a spell that is currently memorized may be scribed in this manner. Furthermore, the cost of any raw materials that are used in the process must be covered in full. Finally, inscribing a scroll removes one instance of the spell in question from the caster's memory.)

Shei- (Select a spell level:)

Shei- 1st level spells (50gp)

Shei- (Choose which spell to scribe onto a scroll:)

Shei- Blindness

The Party Has Lost Gold: 50
The Party Has Gained An Item


With dialogue logging enabled, the game gets as far as...

[003C08D6] PAUSED
[003C08D6] Shei-  Scribe Scrolls : Shei
[003C08D6] Shei- Auto-Paused: Spell Cast
[003C08D6] UNPAUSED
[003C08D7] 
[003C08D7] 
[003C08D7] 

The game crashes before the dialogue window actually appears. Nothing is reported on the nature of the crash. Here's the TobEx.log.

Oh, I see. I take it you get a C0000417 exception? The text has too many characters for the buffer I gave it. I'll fix this up.
