I accidently notice (after ALT-Tab to desktop) that TobEx console has lot of messages:

 

CEffectSetStat::ApplyEffect(): nOpcode out of bounds (expected maximum 400)

 

It doesn't affect game, at least i don't notice anything.

 

Just curious about this issue.

Some mod is using the SetStat effect opcode incorrectly. Anyone out there using this currently? It doesn't necessarily have any impact on the game itself, but whatever some modder is trying to achieve just won't do anything.

Well you could, if you find the component that causes the message to show up... but with BWS games, it's a little more than an easy to find out problem, having the 1000 components... :D

Run this on your install :) It checks EFFs, CREs, ITMs and SPLs for effects using invalid opcodes (> 317)

 

If there are stuff in your install that use opcode 318, I think A64 would like to know about them :cheers:

 

1. Rename a setup-XXX.exe to setup-invalid_opcode_checker.exe

2. Open cmd.exe and type: setup-invalid_opcode_checker.exe --force-install-list 0 > invalid.log

3. Attach invalid.log :P

 

Example output:

Spoiler

 

Not sure if those are present in vanilla BG as well, checking mod backups just in case.

Salk's No game over mod seems to add this to a lot of spells :unsure: What should their correct STAT opcodes be though?

I can't personally identify which mods those spells belong to, but there are two ways to further this:

1. once identified which mods these spells belong, notify the respective mod authors to check that they are using opcode 318 correctly

2. if these spells belong to multiple mods, something or some mod may have f00bared STATS.IDS, preventing opcode 318 from working correctly. In this case finding which mod overwrote stats.ids or similar and restoring its backup could fix the issue.

For starters, I'd try to run change-log on the following fubared files:

 

DW#TRPIN.SPL

SPIN897.SPL

SPPR705.SPL
SPWI810.SPL

 

Next, post your WeiDU.log's contents.

 

 

 

2. if these spells belong to multiple mods, something or some mod may have f00bared STATS.IDS, preventing opcode 318 from working correctly.

Are you saying that the missing entry in STATS.IDS can prevent the 318 from actually working, not just being unrecognized by WeiDU during the BAF compilation???

 

I know about two mods that cause it - pre-BGEE versions of SCS and SCS2 (both v21), and aTweaks. They ship with the Detectable Spells library, that effectively deletes any 200+ entries from STATS.IDS. I did know about its inability to handle new ToBEx stats, and have uploaded the updated version (now in use by SCS v22), but it never came across my mind that the problem would lay that deep. If that be true, then we need to get aTweaks updated asap.

So, it is as I suspected then - the Game Over Only on Party Death mod's new 318th stat is erased from STATS.IDS by SCS' old DS.

Apologies for late reply. TobEx relies on the highest numbered stat in STATS.IDS to determine how much memory to assign for stats for the game session.
