[Not an issue] Can't install component

[mongerman]

Hi

 

every time I install 'add kits to exported characters', the setup runs fine, but after that it does not show up in the weidu log. If I run the setup again, its as if I didnt install it at all. No problem with other components though.

 

Also, can I use Lvl one NPC on my main character? If so, how? I would like to make him a multi class sqashbuckler/mage if possible.

 

TIA for any feedback

As usual, the readme should answer most of your questions, or that is its intention at any rate. You will not see anything for this component in the WeiDU.log as it makes no actual changes to the game, but you can use it to change any exported character as often as you wish.

Add kits to exported characters - Optional

 

This component allows brave cheaters, er, players to assign a kit to an exported PC. Most people who'd consider doing that will probably use an editor like DLTCEP or NI instead . You cannot use this component to assign a kit to a character already kitted. Nor can you uninstall the component normally, as it makes no changes to your actual game. You can, however, restore characters in the level1npcs/backup/2 folder if you aren't happy with your changes. It is always wise to keep an extra backup also, just in case.

Hi!

 

While installing lvl1npc mod, in DOS window i can see the following message: Skipping GROUP [Mod NPCs] because it fails its requirements.

After this nothing is added to the weidu log.

I have the latest patches (BG Original Atari 4in1 boxset DVDs) and tryed BG-SOA, BG-TOB, EasyTutu4 and BGT with the same results.

 

It's very annoying because this is the only mod that fails for me so far, and I really wanted to try it...

 

Do you have any ideas what should I try?

Try the latest version v1.9, install the first component and make sure not to fall on the Windows stupidity, aka install anywhere else than to Program Files -sub folders, including the foreign translation of those words, the " (x86)" one and so forth and so on.

 

Also, can I use Lvl one NPC on my main character? If so, how? I would like to make him a multi class sqashbuckler/mage if possible.

You can do that, but you need to go into the game, export already made character and then install the mod, start a new game and import the mod adjusted one in. If I remember this correctly... as there might be some minor .tp2 editing involved, haven't used the v1.9 myself.

That component will always be auto-skipped unless you have at least one supported NPC mod installed (such as Gavin etc.).

 

@Jarno - that was already answered above (it's an optional component).
