skellytz,

 

I am reviewing your excellent work on the updated BG1 game text (making a comparison with my old work from years past) and I thought you'd might want to be informed about the few instances where you need to intervene. I'll update this post as I continue.

 

One such case is string 4574 to 4582. The audio played there should be PNOBL01, PNOBL02, PNOBL03, PNOBL04, PNOBL05, PNOBL06, PNOBL07, PNOBL08, PNOBL09 as opposed to PNOBL04, PNOBL05, PNOBL06, PNOBL07, PNOBL08, PNOBL09, PNOBL10, PNOBL11, PNOBL12.

 

String 4700: Typo: !.

 

String 5086: "the" at the beginning should be capitalized.

 

String 5718: I think "your" should be changed to "their"

 

String 5719: I think comma should replace period after the initial "Why"

 

String 5772: Typo: "we're" should be "were"

These are just unused leftover strings. The dialogues noblpa, noblpa1, noblpa2 and noblpa3 actually use different string numbers with the same content but correct audio references.
 

String 4700. Typo: !

String 5086: "the" at the beginning should be capitalized

String 5718: I think "your" should be changed to "their"

String 5719: I think comma should replace period after the initial "Why"

String 5772: Typo: "we're" should be "were".

Ok, thanks!

One question, skellytz.

 

The WOLFF01 sound seems to be unused in BGT while WOLFF03 is used three times (Str 5554, 5556 and 5557). I guess it is intended? In my Tweaks, I know I have made some audio changes to WOLFF01, WIDOG09 and WADOG09, but I don't honestly remember why.

Salk, you know that monster/animal soundsets are still messed up in all BG games. Infinity Sounds v2 attempts to fix issues like that.

[Salk]

Yes, of course. Infinity Sounds will fix many such issues.

Thanks for all the reports, Salk! I'll keep checking here as I can already tell there's a whole bunch of them coming (you're around where I stopped comparing against the BGEE strings).

[Salk]

It's the least I can do. Cheers!

[Salk]

A very minor suggestion for an entry in BGT's journal.tra:

 

@311092 = ~The priestess of Umberlee.

 

A little Umberlee priestess is dead now. I wonder if I could hope now to get some divine help from Talos in the near future... as well as fresh fish each dinner...~

 

I'd swap "A" with "The", remove the first "now", place the second "now" after "hope", swap the ellipsis in the end with a full period.

[Salk]

skellytz,

 

does BGT by any chance override the game text description of the Detect Evil spell?

[skellytz]

Does BGT by any chance override the game text description of the Detect Evil spell?

Yes, it corrects the level from 1 to 2 for spwi202. I'll make it compatible with your GTU.

[Salk]

skellytz,

 

sometimes I encounter a few strings with odd symbols I am not sure how they are interpreted/parsed by the game. A series of such strings are #16215-16229. They begin with "%nl%_%nl" in the original BG text. From what I can see, the EE team changed it to "_%nl" for BG1, while the BGT BG1 text has removed those altogether. In my BG2 GTU, I have "%nl%_%nl" again, which is weird, since I got those lines from the EE game text, meaning that the EE team chose differently for BG1 and BG2. 

Any advice about this?

Also, something else to report. The strings #16235-16260 have text and character sounds both in the BG1 game text and the BG2 game text but both text and sound differ. Interestingly enough, the BG1 sounds exist and match while the BG2 sounds exist but do not work. I checked BG2 EE and those .wav files exist and play in German (if I understand correctly).

 

Do you know anything about it?
