(it's a multiplayer game as I created two characters.)

It doesn't matter, as one can just change the save folder location and play it in singleplayer game if one wants to.

Yes, only such cheap charater like me knows this stuff like the back of their hands.

You've just saved me time and removed the annoying inconvenience of having to go through character arbitration every time I need to load a game. Thank you!

Hi Andrea

 

I've attached my weidu.log and my latest save (it's a multiplayer game as I created two characters.) Thank you for looking into this

I discovered extended AnimationID of Human NPC/PC, i think Infinity Animation mod has changed some things in bgmain.exe to enable 0x6**** animation IDs.

Test attached tobex.dll version, it fix problem with you savegame on my BGT, but i need confirm on your BGT too. Overwrite existed tobex.dll in BG2 folder after installed Improved GUI.

 

p.s. in weidu.log widescreen mod installed after improved gui, this is wrong if you try to install "Loot Panel"

Absolutely perfect!

 

Thank you for looking into it, Insomniator

Phenomenal work as always, but these Windows sounds definitely need to go.
 
TADA.wav could be replaced with EFF_M72C.wav
FOLSTART.wav could be replaced with EFF_P22C.wav or EFF_P87.wav

EFF_P22C.wav/EFF_P87.wav are electrical effects
EFF_M72C.wav is not "epic" enough

 

It's a matter of taste, anyone can rename TADA.wav & FOLSTART.wav to own favorites, i've updated mod description about sound files

[Vlan]

Sure sure, was just suggesting. Everything is still better than the Windows sounds though.

Thanks for this update and for the "compatibility with GUI_720 mod"

[eyre]

Thanks for this awesome mod.

 

I've noticed an occasional oddity with the damage range. The lower value of the range can potentially be reported as a negative number, as seen in the attached image. I've only noticed this occurring when a character is fatigued.

Hi eyre

Seems low level chars have this issue, thanks for bug report

[Insomniator]

Updated:

• v3.17 Fixed: THAC0&Damage info on inventory screen in fatigue mode
• v3.17 TobEx: show mage robe for BG1 Type Chars

[Andrea C.]

Youre on a roll!

Hi Insomniator,

 

Nice to see more and more features. Great works and Thanks.

 

I've got one interrogation on the [Log Active Buffs] component, Do you think that it would be possible to have the "show remaining time" features only for CHARNAME and his/her Companions spells and not for others NPC spells (Seems Complex...) ? It seems useful and resonnable that you could know the remaining time of buffs and debuffs cast by your team but not the remaining time of buff and debuffs cast by others.

~Casted spells~

~Casted spells + show remaining time~

~Casted spells + show remaining time for Party only~

~Equipped items & Casted spells~
~Equipped items & Casted spells, show remaining time~

~Equipped items & Casted spells, show remaining time for Enemy only~

 

is it right ?

[TotoR]

It sounds right, but what would be the cherry on the pie:

 

Log Active Buffs :

~Casted spells for all (Party and Enemy)~

~Casted spells for all + show remaining time for all~

~Casted spells for all + show remaining time for Party only~

~Casted spells for all + show remaining time for spells casted by the Party only (not for active spells casted by enemies)~

~Equipped items & Casted spells for all ~
~Equipped items & Casted spells for all + show remaining time for all~

~Equipped items & Casted spells for all + show remaining time for Party only~

~Equipped items for Party only & Casted spells for all + show remaining time for item effects & spells casted by the Party only (not for active effects casted by enemies)~

No, it becomes a puzzle when need select installation option
just simplify it

Sorry for the misunderstanding, my post was not clear...

What was written in Bald was not meant to be added in the installation options but the reminder of the target of the selected option. It was clearly a mess as sometime, it is an information and othertimes it is the option itself... In summary, I totally agree with you; the installation options have to be simple; adding all those texts is not a good idea.

My interrogation was on the "Party only" options:

It seems that you can add remaining time for "Party actives buffs" only, witch is, I think, the less cheating of above options; however, do you think that it could be possible to have the remaining time only for spells cast by the party? It clearly seems more complex to add as you will need to know what was cast by the party and what was not (don't know if it is possible)... It would be the less cheating option as it is only a reminder of spells that you already have cast.

If added, it would be more something like :

                   ~Casted spells + show remaining time only for spells cast by the Party~
                   ~Equipped items & Casted spells, show remaining time only for spells cast by the Party~

This is test version, wait your feedback

1) add to TobEx_ini\TobExTweak.ini line:
UI:Log Active Buffs with time casted by Party=1
2) replace existing TobEx.dll
3) legenda:
charm - charmed Party or NPC for very long/unlimited time, all items have unlimited time
charm (*) - charmed by NPC(non-party) for limited time
charm 1m:20s - charmed by Party for 1m:20s
"Party" includes Party/Ally/Summons/Charmed

Nice... I Will try this as soon as I can.

Thanks

[TotoR]

I have installed the test version and there is no bug so far, it works as intended.

 

Great work and thanks you.

[ALIEN]

Insomniator, it's possible to extend ToBEx and add option: Do not drop items after death ? So the items will be still at correct slots after resurrecting party member?
