[Requires EET] The Cowled Menace v1.0.1 - Overview
Daxtreme replied to Daxtreme's topic in The Cowled Menace
This component of mine only changes items dropped by Cowled Wizards (including Zallanora), but with precise, non-destructive editing, nothing else. The issue is with another mod for sure. Here is the entire code pertaining to Zallanora in that optional component: COPY_EXISTING ~mage18z.cre~ ~override~ // Zallanora (Cowled Wizard Last Wave) Mage 30/30 | 1 LPF SANITIZE_CRE RET ok = ok END PATCH_IF ok BEGIN ADD_CRE_ITEM ~amul22~ #0 #0 #0 ~none~ ~amulet~ // Amulet of Poison Immunity ADD_CRE_ITEM ~RNDSCR05~ #1 #0 #0 ~none~ ~inv~ // Random level 9 scroll ADD_CRE_ITEM ~brac07~ #0 #0 #0 ~none~ ~gloves~ // Bracers of 18 dex | itemrev +2 dex // rring already occupied ADD_CRE_ITEM ~boot12~ #0 #0 #0 ~undroppable~ ~boots~ // Boots immune to backstab, undroppable END BUT_ONLY- 43 replies

[Requires EET] The Cowled Menace v1.0.1 - Overview
Daxtreme replied to Daxtreme's topic in The Cowled Menace
She is definitely not supposed to appear in the first encounter with the Cowled Wizards when they just warn you. That has never happened to me. Sounds like a mod compatibility issue. Did you install EET correctly? Do you have "Unofficial Item Pack" installed by any chance?- 43 replies

Well it's still a lot better than literally having nothing but a nonmagical quarterstaff, but noted I don't want them to be overflowing with loot either- 43 replies

Daxtreme replied to Daxtreme's topic in The Cowled Menace
I will consider adding it in next update thanks for the comment! edit: that optional component doesn't require EET. Here are the requirements: REQUIRE_PREDICATE FILE_EXISTS_IN_GAME ~mage18z.cre~ @50 //Required file missing -- install Baldur's Gate 2 EE REQUIRE_PREDICATE FILE_EXISTS_IN_GAME ~blun31.itm~ @50 //Required file missing -- install Baldur's Gate 2 EE Unless I got something wrong, BG2 should work. Are you on the original BG2? or Enhanced Edition BG2? Further proof (Trying to install my mod on an unmodded BG2EE install works as designed: main component is skipped because EET is uninstalled, optional component works:- 43 replies

Readme says after npc mods. It is a bit vague and I do worry about a large quest mod so late, but have not had time to look into this yet. @Daxtreme any thoughts? Sorry for the massive delay, for some reason I didn't receive this notification in my email. I was in Europe on a trip, recently came back. Honestly my mod is very compatibility-friendly. I don't think there's any issue putting it where it is right now. Of course it HAS to be installed after EET. And avoid mods that destructively alter cowled wizards files (most mod don't destructively alter files anyway), and Twisted Rune. Apart from that... very safe. Putting it alongside with post-EET quest mods works just fine.

Thanks for the info, I've tinkered a bit and I can't find a way to make it end indeed. Seems like I'll have to remove this component for now
-
Really? Perhaps that's a new bug introduced with a Beamdog patch because I tested this a long time ago when I made the component. Does it stay active every single time?
-
In the meantime I'm trying to think how many different triggers exist in ToB that block you out of leaving the Pocket Plane. I know there's the "you must complete a challenge before leaving", but are there others?
-
That's very kind of you, thank you very much! Not a lot of people take the time to leave feedback so much appreciated. I'm leaving for Poland today so I won't be able to fix it soon (no computer for a while), but at least you made it out okay. Anyone who mods extensively knows how to use the console so that's nice but still, I'd like for this not to be a problem in future playthroughs. The mod does exactly what I set out to do: deepen the lore behind Cowled Wizards and the Twisted Rune. It isn't very long, doesn't have a lot of content, but I think it's just in the right places, and sprinkled throughout BG1, BG2, and ToB. Ah that's fair. I'm not sure exactly how SCS affects Zallanora so perhaps she doesn't get the best scripts. It's been a while since I tested SCS, and I never tested it on hardcore.
-
well this is indeed a problem, thank you guys for the report, hope you made it out safely Granger77 (you can always just console Teleport out)
-
Hey, thanks for trying out the mod! Hmm that's right, I forgot that there is a moment in ToB when you can't actually leave the pocket plane. I'll see what I can do to fix that. Thanks for the report edit: by the way, how did you like the ambush in ToB? Did you think it was challenging enough?
-
Glad it's working, just to be sure you put The Cowled Menace after Unofficial Item Pack right?
-
Hmm, if you try to uninstall just my mod I'm fairly sure that Weidu will start uninstalling everything that goes after it, so we're thinking... mostly everything, including SCS and EET_End, so you're in for a painful uninstall (then equally as painful reinstall) What we could do is that you upload the "mage18z.cre" file currently in your override folder. I could fix/append/add the correct scripts and upload it back and you overwrite it. Now that's a terrible way of patching things as it might interfere with weidu uninstall later, but it's the only way to fix this without uninstalling and reinstalling anything. You could even keep your current install "mage18z.cre" somewhere, and if you wanna uninstall stuff later, switch the files beforehand (make backups)

Btw if you reorder my quest mod before items mods, Has a conflict with my mod COWLED MENACE unfortunately. Most likely it has compatibility issues with other mods as well. Maker of the mod uses destructive editing in some places (replacing files altogether) instead of patching which is the only form of coding allowed on Gibberlings (another reason to get mods from here ) Right now it works but if Unofficial Item Pack gets shifted to after Cowled Menace, it will just break the quest, you won't be able to complete it. Like I've been saying on these forums, you should never install this mod. Not sure why so many people install it. PSA #7: Stop installing Unofficial Item Pack!
