This thing again... has to do with MAGESCHOOL_GENERALIST entry in KIT.IDS if I recall... fubar'd by some mods. Can you do change-log of kit.ids please?

What it is : BGT feature to choose known spells since you can only choose spells for level 1 character at character creation.

Hah I reported that back in February : http://www.shsforums...ction-dialogue/. The culprit found there isn't even in your log... so a change-log would be very nice.

That's been implemented somwhere around v1.13 of BGT IIRC, kinda recent feature. Only appears with mage classes AFAIK but not bards (and I don't think that's really planned, might be worth asking again though)

What I did was update the response trigger Kit() check to match the KIT.IDS entry of a generalist mage.

Sidenote answer : I don't remember any such thing unless you start the BG2 part with a sorcerer.

[Beleg33]

Open up the A6GENSPL.DLG file in Near Infinity, go to the edit tab and change the response trigger 1 to match your kit.ids (Should be either MAGESCHOOL_GENERALIST or TRUECLASS depending on how your ids file has been modified)

Hmm, also these are assigned the same number, is that really correct?

0x0000 BARBARIAN
0x0000 WILDMAGE

Well, that's how they are added in the original SoA game during the ToB's install...
A few mods among others made the Barbarian a Fighter kit, so there was no confusion of the above, as the Wild mage and Barbarian are actually true classes originally.

Well this is happening to me too and I can't fix it like last time. The only way I could make it work was by replacing that trigger with True() but if you want to start another game with a specialist mage you'll have to False() it. I'll report to BGT forums about this issue because I can't figure it out.

Anyway isn't the point of BGT to start a game in BG1 and then continue with your character already powered up?

Yeah, but not by breaking the game, which it would do as it doesn't allow you to select more than the first 2 spells at level 1.

[Ascension64]

Try changing that response to

OR(2)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(),MAGESCHOOL_GENERALIST)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(),TRUECLASS)

Don't use the actual numbers as per KIT.IDS.

[Beleg33]

I tried that already Ascension64, sorry I should have mentionned it. My kit.ids is similar to Casper's.

For the record I even tried with having both Kit() true (without OR(2))

I don't know what else is borking this up. I don't have any issues if I put the attached KIT.IDS into my game and create a mage.

Can one of you create a problem character, export it before levelling up, and then attach it here?

[Beleg33]

Okay with the response trigger being

OR(2)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(Myself),TRUECLASS)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(Myself),MAGESCHOOL_GENERALIST)

I only get th NVROL when picking a single class mage, all multi-classed mages have no problem.
Exported mage :  A6GENSPL_MAGE_CHR.7z   487bytes   169 downloads

I think I'm seeing the issue with the .chr file... The kit is set to magetw which is created by some mod, to do something (?)

It would be Refinements (for real this time) duplicating kits to differentiate HLA tables

Likely it isn't in the scope of BGT to add such a check.

Worst case we can add the check through patching refinements' tp2 with BWFixpack.

[Beleg33]

Make it

OR(2)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(Myself),magetw)
Kit(LastTalkedToBy(Myself),MAGESCHOOL_GENERALIST)

or you will get the same issue with multi (perhaps dual too) mages
