Lately in bwp installs I noticed that items that result in instant undead destruction (such as blun12) started killing undead 100% of the time on hit, and this resulted in 0 xp for such kills. After receiving some helpful suggestions from others, I disabled TobEx and saw a fix in this problem. Then, I disabled Use EFF File Fix and was also able to fix this problem with TobEx running. Re-enabling Use EFF File Fix reproduces the problem.

Among other things, this effect behavior resulted in the possibility of completely destroying Bodhi in Chapter 3 before she can escape, which is a serious problem.

Interestingly, the broken Undead Destruction reads "Undead Destroyed" in the combat log and does not follow this with "Death" for the creature destroyed. Correct behavior of these effects result in both of those entries in the combat log.


I did a search to determine if any other installed mods had a TobEx redist, and only Turambar Fixes and nogameover showed up.

 

edit: Note that die.eff could also be the problem. I don't know for sure between those two.

Here's weidu.log for this install.
