Hi there!

Thanks to the folks who have resurrected and maintained this mod!

Having a few issues:
1) The pirate who tells me about Velvetfoot is a no-show at the city gates.

2)  Academy of Kuldin - areas to which characters are teleported by the trap on the 3rd level are gated for 'whole-party only' exit, so once someone has been TP'ed, the party can not reunite save with use of the console.
3) Hlondeth - frequent crashes during Birmstone Bridge battle, but I was eventually able to complete it.  However, I had to spawn the warehouse yuan-ti to progress the Blackadder Stew quest.  After completion, I was attacked by Valiant when I entered his shop.

4) Secret Library - pool is clickable but unresponsive, zone can not be entered except via console

Holly the Elf, Melynda the Mute, "Got Ice" all worked fine.

For the Inheritance quest, Mekrath was already dead; I had to respawn him to get his book.

I'd upload my WeiDU log, but it's more than 30MB

Thanks for reporting! Is this your thread at G3?

It is, yes.  Turns out I had an account here from 10 years ago...I don't even remember playing this game then!
 
Oh, I didn't mention that Selim Sivad turned up while I was in the Ancient Library.  He asked me 3x to give back his scrolls.  Then the 4th time his dialogue indicated he was going to attack, but I got the "No Valid Replies or Links" and he stayed neutral.

He *kept* turning up, though, like a dozen times or so.  And I never cast any of "his" spells (most of which have been dropping as random scrolls since BG1), so I'm not sure what triggered his appearance (when he never did appear at the Academy.

One possibility--I had just gotten "Use Any Item" as my first HLA on the FMT.  Might be relevant.
 
Edit (another issue): All the chests I've tried, on the "Horton" quests, have had "The Mechanism that operates this does not have a conventional lock and is warded against all spells."  Visited the Temple of Lathander and the Slaver Compound so far.  Easy enough to just spawn the items, but I shouldn't have to!

Moezilla mentioned this bug for CtB today in Discord.

[jastey]

it kept crashing my game when the messenger arrived to invite my character to some girl’s coming-out party. Kind of a shame because the content is excellent. I have version 3.0

Hello,

 

On an EET installation...   SETUP-CTB.DEBUG   721.59K   67 downloads

 

It seems that the reference to spells and  BG scripts are changed or removed. This leads to errors for several spells.

 

The errors begin line 4068

This Forest of Tethyr patch should be included in CtB.  Zelazko has tested it and it's also worked on BG2EE and EET.

[Jourin]

Getting an installation error on CtB.  Very lean installation as CTB is at the beginning and was doing a manual load of a few mods. Error is on sound installation/configuration.  Missing sound.tp2 file?  Which I cannot find.

 

Can't find attach file option.

[Jourin]

I may have solved the problem.  The main TP2 file has this line:  //////////////////////////////
// Adding music
//////////////////////////////
PRINT ~Registering CtB music themes...~
 
INCLUDE ~%MOD_FOLDER%/lib/install-music-%engine%.tpa~
 
The only two files that match this are: install-music-ee.tpa and install-music-old.tpa
Definitely not an ee installation so look at music-old
This tp2 file creates:  <<<<<<<< sound1.tp2 and <<<<<<<< sound2.tp2
 
However, last lines reference sound and sound2

  COPY_EXISTING ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~
   APPEND_FILE_EVALUATE ~sound.tp2~
   APPEND_FILE ~sound2.tp2~
 
If I change sound to sound1
   APPEND_FILE_EVALUATE ~sound1.tp2~
 
Installation is successful
 
I would appreciate a confirmation that this is the correct fix.
 

NOTE:  If I follow the BWP format and don't install the BGT sound until after CTB, then CTB installs.  However, I still think sound should be sound1 and is a bug.

I think I also found another bug.  Running setup-gui.exe would fail because SONGLIST.2DA does not exist in any of the slots.  Ctb copied this file to directory sound under %slot_name% directory.  I think this an attempt to wildcard the sound subdirectory under any slot but not working.   If I copy the directory sound with the file songlist.2da to the slot I choose, then it works correctly.

The journal entry for Farradh's messenger causes EET to hard lock.

 

The journal entry is:

The banquet at Merchant Farrahd's home in Athkatla for his daughter's d�butante ball will be held two days from this entry's date.  You should arrive no earlier than 8 in the evening, but no later than the following morning.

 

When I remove the line from the script that ads the journal, the game continues fine. I am unable to fix it properly in my game, because Near Infinity doens't want to save the dialog.tlk file for what ever reason. After closing EE Keeper I fixed it in my own game with Near Inifinity. Changing d�butante te debutante fixed it.

In EET some maps have weird seams between the tiles, and are shaded inproperly. I saw that in a random encounter map before, but didn't check the map name. In area accesed from the kangax dungeon is't very obvious. Even more so while paused. I did see CtB had some activity, lately. I am using a version from about a month ago, EET playthroughs take a while. AR3556 and AR3548 have similar issues.

In AR3547 I can't open the magic door. It tells me it wont open while the swords are alive.

 

THe swords spawned twice for me, probably due to entering the room from two sides after being teleported by the trap earlier in the dungeon. The SPRITE_IS_DEADCB3547BL global is set to 12. But while that probably shouldn't happen. I can't find there that magic door (forcefield) is supposed to be opened at all. I don't see anything in any script about unlocking "DoorMagic" in AR3547.

I can't access AR3576 during the "More cowl tasks" quests. Guides say I should access that at the north stairs at the sewers under the Copper Corronet (AR0404). But those stairs lead up to the Copper Corronet.

 

Looking over AR4040 in Near Infinity, it seems the entrance was moved, but not properly. There are 3 relevant point of interests, Tran0404, Trans0404 and Door3576.

 

Tran0404 is the north stairs up to the Copper Corronet.

Trans0404 is also an exit to the Copper Corronet, placed at the northeastern sewer waterway exit (around X2400 Y1200)

Door3576 is the exit to AR3576 I need, with exactly the same coordinates as Trans0404.

 

Door3576 is activated by the AR4040 script

 

IF
    GlobalGT("CbWizardsAndHakesharPlot","GLOBAL",0)
    Global("CbTransActive","AR0404",0)  // Sewers beneath Coronet -- Lilarcor
THEN
    RESPONSE #100
        TriggerActivation("Info3576",FALSE)
        TriggerActivation("Door3576",TRUE)
        SetGlobal("CbTransActive","AR0404",1)  // Sewers beneath Coronet -- Lilarcor
        Continue()
END

CbWizardsAndHakesharPlot is set 1 in my save. And I have no idea how to check area globals, but I assume that can't really go wrong.

So what I think happens, is that Trans0404 is used even when Door3576 is activated.

 

I tried manually removing Trans0404 from AR4040 with nearinfinity, but that didn't help. I still exit to the Copper Corronet when using the area transition at X2400 Y1200.

I assume Trans0404 is baked into my save somehow.

 

In the end I managed to get the Door3576 working by temporarily adding a function to the area script that disables Trans0404.
