Send them here if you find any. But before posting please make sure that you have followed the installation instruction accurately. Also, don't forget to attach a copy of your WeiDu.log file. WeiDu.log is a text file which can be found in your main BG2 folder. Either attach the file to your post or simply copy and paste its content.

Typo report: Amulet of Charon's description starts with "This is a long last magical item..." I'm assuming that should be 'lost'.

[Sikret]

Locally fixed. Thanks, Vardaman!

The Ray of Fragmentation does not seem to work on the Elemental Golem guardian of the Master Brain. Is this intentional?

No, it's not intentional. Thank you very much for reporting this issue. Here is a quick fix:

1- Uninstall the mod
2- Download the attached file and paste it into the "itm" folder (the "itm" folder is inside "ImprovedAnvil" folder in your main BG2 folder).
3- Install the mod again.

Please let me know if the problem is fully fixed.

I strongly recommend that everyone installs this fix, because some other golems also have this unintended immunity in the game and installing this fix will solve the problem for all of them at once.

To Sikret:

I have progressed into Chapter 6, and therefore could not test the fix out on the Elemental Golem stated earlier. However, it probably works.


Before the fix:

SPOILER!

Ray of Fragmentation did not work on the Elemental Golem with the Master Brain, nor did it work on the 2 Elemental Golems with Kruin.

After the fix:

SPOILER!

The spell worked on the Elemental Golem with the Alhoon in the Illithid Hideout, located within the Temple Sewers.

No problem. I tested it on him and it works.

A minor typo found for the vagrant-specific quest:

SPOILER!

In the dialogue with the swanmay when I first receive the quest, one of the dialogue options reads:

2 "Do you have any idea where to look for the tresure or the thief?"

Treasure is misspelt.

Also, minor typo discovered in the dialogue for the upgrade of the Long Sword +4. "further" spelt as "furthere".

Typos locally fixed. Thanks, LZJ!

[Vardaman]

Typo report: The Noble Efreet says 'Efreeeti' in one of his dialogues.

Typo report: The Noble Efreet says 'Efreeeti' in one of his dialogues.

Perhaps he was referring to a 'big' efreeti.

Locally fixed. Thanks!

Typo report:

In the description of the Axe of the Lakesider, "adornments" in the 2nd line is spelt incorrectly as "adornmets".


On a separate note (not a bug), I was expecting much more treasure considering the sacrifice I had to make.

[Vardaman]

Another small thing, you fixed the Mace of Disruption +2 to go back to the +1 picture (thanks!), but I think you forgot to change the BAM referenced under the Melee ability of the item. Everything looks fine when you're in the inventory screen but then when you put it in your Quick Weapon slot, it looks like the plain Mace +1's BAM from the main gameplay screen.

Will change for the next version. Thanks for drawing my attention to it.

Small thing.......but I noticed you tweaked the enchantment level of some weapons: daystar, hammer of giantkin etc.

Anyways, in my game they were striking at the enchantment level dictated by the damage bonus, rather than the inflated level present in the vanilla game (daystar and the hammer of giantkin both strike as +4 in the vanilla game, whereas in IA 5.0 they are +2 and +1 respectively (i think)).

Thing is, all the weapon descriptions still mention the old enchantment level. They say something along the lines of "x weapon is considered +4 when determining what it can hit". Off the top of my head I can think of daystar, flametongue, and the hammer of giantkin that have this description yet don't actually have the ability to hit as +4 any more (i noticed when I was trying to kill the demilich).

There are a few other weapons, like the root of the problem, that have an abnormal ability to strike, but I don't know what's been tweaked and what hasn't.

Actually, I'm assuming this is deliberate: is it?

[Sikret]

Hi, leonidas!

Nice to read from you again.

Have you possibly installed the game text update of Baldurdash? If so, it is culprit for the inconsistent descriptions.

Cheers

[leonidas]

Heh, hello again, sikret

Well, naturally I could not resist a new release of IA.

Hrm, so the Baldurdash text update is the culprit, I'll give it a miss next time.

The detect evil spell started some script.

I go against the Mencar's party and i cast a detect evil before i enter to the room, and sorcerer amon cast a protection of fire, without see the party, his other protection activated later when he see us. I don't try any other opponent yet.

[Raven]

Are you sure that wouldn't have happened without Detect Evil? Could you try reloading and entering the area without casting the spell?

[Ryel ril Ers]

Raven:
You are right. Only happened that Keldorn and Amon cast his spells at the same time.
I try it twice, but i dont think to wait without cast, sorry.
