Apologies if this has come up before, but I couldn't find this problem anywhere on the net. Basically, whenever anyone in the party is hit by something, either by a physical attack or a spell, I get the "Char was immune to my damage" message from the creature that attacked. It is possible to die, however, as I sent a Level 6 Minsc up to the "Little a Sister" encounter in the Jovial Juggler Inn in Beregost (part of the NT/DSotSC mod) and he was killed by a Death Spell. I have no idea what could have caused this, and I get the feeling that this is a freak occurrence because of my install. I used the BWS beta so I could customise things a bit, and I've attached the WeiDU log if that helps.

To be honest, it doesn't bother me that much as it just saves me from reloading a lot

I'm not really expecting a fix for it, this is just letting you guys know that this can actually happen. Think of it as a curiosity or something.

Does that also happen if you launch the game through bgmain.exe instead of tobexloader?

[LonerAoshi]

Well whaddya know, it's only when launched via TOBExLoader. I assume this has something to do with my enabling of the damage fix? I had to do so, otherwise it would CTD the instant I hit the first "assassin" in Candlekeep.

Can you do 5 things for me:
-Attach your TobEx.ini file?
-Zip up your saved game and attach it here?
-Attach your TobEx.log file?
-Attach your WeiDU.log file?
-Tell me if your character is a maximum of 1 hit point?

I did a bit of testing, but the results are consistent: Using BGMain there are no problems, using TOBExLoader with the damage fix results in the player's party being immune to all damage save instant death effects (such as a death spell), and using TOBExLoader without the damage fix enabled results in a CTD. I don't know if this is useful, but this is the error report Windows spits out:

Also, all characters I tested with had more than 1HP. Here are the files. The only thing I've changed from when I'm normally playing is enabling all the logging functions. Hope this helps.

I think I found the problem.
What difficulty setting are you using? Can you try changing that and seeing if it solves the problem?

I have managed to typo the difficulty multipliers so that - becomes + and vice versa, so that the following happens...

novice: add 50% damage (instead of 0.5x damage)
normal: add 25% damage (instead of 0.75x damage)
core: normal damage
hard: subtract 50% damage (instead of 1.5x damage)
insane: subtract 100% damage (instead of double damage)

Will fix, thanks.

Yep, that fixed it, lol. I was on insane, dropping down a notch fixed it.

Is there any way for me to fix that locally? Or should I wait until the next release and upgrade then? Can I even do that with the number of mods I've installed? In any case, thanks for clearing that up.

I wonder how many first-time players got suckered with that...

[Ascension64]

Ah, well. You can't fix it locally unfortunately. The next version of TobEx is due out very soon, but upgrading for BWP users means a re-install, so I don't recommend it.

It might be better to play at core rules, since hard will still give you only 50% of damage.
