Reshuffling of spells

Alric · 12-27-2002, 02:15 PM

Hi!

I've just entered Chapter 8 (have had ToB installed all the time) with my party and have noticed one strange thing. Whenever I sleep (I think it is then) all my memorized spells get resorted in a reserved alphabetic order. This is very annoying since it affects which spells that my Images and Simulacrums have available. Is there something strange with my save game or is there any way to get around this?

This behaviour wasn't present in Chapters 1-7.

The only time when a spellcaster's spells are rearranged, is when he is resurrected or stone-to-flesh or level-drained or freed from Imprisonment. I may have left out a few.

That's really really strange.. Nothing has happened to Edwin at all. Barely been injured at all since the last time we rested.

The only thing I can think of that has actually changed is that I use the upgraded circlet with extra 7th and 8th level spells now. No strange known side effect from that either?

That item should prove no problem. Is your game patched?

ToB patches,

Get the Official ToB Patch first, then get the Baldurdash ToB Fixpack v1.12.

Yes, have applied both of them.

Do you have any 3rd-party mods in your game?

Alric · 12-27-2002, 03:09 PM

TeamBG's xp-cap remover and lvl 50 abilities and I was forced to install Happy Script 5.0 to keep my party together but that was back while I was still in Watcher's Keep in Chapter Six.

I noticed that Baldurdash's web page talked about some fix to IDS-tables not being installed automatically but I'm not sure what IDS-tables are or if this can affect this..

Well, did you backup your override folder, dialog.tlk file and chitin.key file? If you did, replace them back and see if the game works now. If not, a fresh reinstall should solve your problem.

This is the following installation procedure,

1) SoA
2) ToB
3) ToB Official Patch
4) Baldurdash ToB Fixpack
5) Backup the files and folder
6) Install Mods
