I've removed all changes to Cumulative Modifier (param1=0) in the Strength opcode, which will correct all issues associated with equipped items not keeping strength bonuses on load, and incorrect incrementation of strength on using certain items. The Strength Spell (param1=3) stays as a modder feature.

130 Configurable Backstab Every Hit

Tested this an works as intended. Please provide more information if you want me to look any further.

and Configurable Damage Effect Bypasses Mirror doesn't seem to be working.
I use TobEx beta 0021, last SCS and SR.
I have installed the SR mirror image fixe, and then the spell now works prperly.

This also works as intended. You mention a spell, what spell would that be and how would it work properly?

[Ascension64]

1. By 'hidden', do you mean that you have a modded game that has more than 24/25 spells in a level?
2. Are you using any GUI mods? There may perhaps be a compatiblity issue?

1. Yes, more than 24/25 spells in a level.
2. This time I went without installing any GUI mods, or is the option "Original SoA/ToB" in setup-GUI (BGT Graphical User Interface) required?

Nope, I found a small typo in the calculation of the number of scroll knob states, so should be fixed now.

"Blindness as Spell Description" either isn't taking or is getting overridden somehow, but I can't find any candidates.

[Ascension64]

Yeah, my bad. I typo'd the ini reading part for this hack. If you want to fix this now, you can open up TobEx_ini/TobExTweak.ini and remove "Effect Opcodes:" in

Effect Opcodes:Blindness As Spell Description=0

[phordicus]

Remove that entire line, or change it to 0? Currently it's at 1 for that particular effect and removing the line changed nothing; still the -10 thac0 penalty.

EDIT: There's also "Blindness Fix=1" in the core.ini. I think I've tried all combinations of each one either 1, 0, or commented out to no avail.

Also (testing minor item stuff) poison isn't killing creatures normally. Creatures get poisoned but stay around fighting even with the tooltip saying "Mephit - Dead". After ~3 more rounds they "die" but their now-invisible circles remain an obstacle. Disabling the ToBEx dll restores it to working as normal. I'll assume other related issues (regen, disease, etc) are similarly borked.

P.S. I've had the flu and may be hallucinating all this.

EDIT2: re:poison. Yup, setting "Disease Fix" back to 0 restored poison to normal functioning.
Valygar just "killed" the mephit. Apparently tooltips do not show up in my screenshots.

A bit later the XP for the kill is awarded; meanwhile combat continues.

The mephit actually dies here and the combat ends, complete with correct dead anim and death sound (finally).

No, remove the exact text "Effect Opcodes:" from that line. Do not delete the whole line, nor change it to 0.

Yup, setting "Disease Fix" back to 0 restored poison to normal functioning.

Will look at this. Can I clarify that you mean what you say here, that Disease Fix is affecting poison? Can you actually attach your saved game, so I can directly reproduce the problem?

My mistake. I wrongly assumed all the repeating effects were fixed in one variable. It is, in fact, the Poison fix not working. I have not tested regen, disease, etc yet.

(I'm clua-ing in Valyg9 to test, btw).

For what it's worth, this all started with a change to Valygar's armor that was giving me an assertion error. I may just wipe and start over, testing as I go.

[NEW]
Clean install. Widescreen and ToBEx only. Poison still wonky.

Good news, though. Blindness is working with "Effect Opcode:" removed as specified so something else along the way is borking it.

Edited by phordicus, 10 December 2011 - 05:17 AM.

[bowbow99]

As I posted here, I got same problem as phordicus reported (the poison one). I'll post here if I find something.
N.B. Version of TobEx which I tested is beta0021 (TobEx.dll's file version is 0.21.11.6).

[Ascension64]

Oops, I think this was the problem...

creTarget.cdsCurrent.stateFlags &= STATE_POISONED;

Which cleared the STATE_DEAD flag. Should have been |=
There was a similar typo in the disease fix actually if the Slow effect was applied.

Edited by Ascension64, 10 December 2011 - 02:51 PM.

[bowbow99]

Tested new test version (0.22.12.11) and poison problem is fixed. Thanks for your quick work.

[phordicus]

Nice. Thanks for the update. Is there a workaround to update this on an install w/o weidu uninstalling/reinstalling all mods after it?

Also, Blindness works but seems to be backwards. If it's set to 1, it's vanilla; manually set to 0 in core.ini (or skipped during install, I'd assume) and it works as described.

[Ascension64]

Nice. Thanks for the update. Is there a workaround to update this on an install w/o weidu uninstalling/reinstalling all mods after it?

Just find the TobEx.dll in the new archive and replace the one currently installed.

Which one, Blindness Fix or Blindness As Per Spell Description?

[phordicus]

Which one, Blindness Fix or Blindness As Per Spell Description?

Fix in core @ 0 + BAPSD in tweak @ 1 = blindness works

Edited by phordicus, 13 December 2011 - 06:27 PM.

[Ascension64]

So if both are 1, do you get Blindness Fix only, or vanilla behaviour (cumulative penalty)?

[Ascension64]

I realised that Kit Trigger Fix broke vanilla behaviour when mods used Kit(Myself,0). Therefore, Kit() with 0 will check only the low WORD of the kit, preserving BARBARIAN and WILDMAGE checks. Note you can still use Kit(Myself,40000000) and Kit(Myself,80000000) for the above two, which is preferred.

Fixed, I had the code the wrong way around, so now BAPSD should overwrite Blindness Fix as intended.

The fix for scrollable mage and priest spellbooks works. Replaced ToBEX.dll from stable Beta 21 with ToBEX.dll from Beta 23 120105.
