They also manufacture tridents and staves, so I suppose they should be able to use those.

True enough, Spears it is, I forgot about that.

Another "bug" - there are wayward transparency pixels on GrayFace's armours

Where?

Wait, I might have been mistaken about that and it is just the paperdolls. I don't remember and I don't really have the time to check.

[Templayer]

BTW people keep suggesting what I think is basically mistakes and not knowing that the TRACKER is not read-only.

Any change you do will be sent to me as a suggestion.

I keep getting empty spaces and such as suggestions that I could apply to the document.

Last time, it was by an user called "Nexas Nexiukas" on google.
I do not know if he has an account here or what his nickname is here.

I do have to open it and check if it is true, and here it changed "attack" to "atta ck" (if I remember correctly), so I presume that was a mistake.

Hey everyone,

So I started a new game with all the bug fixes that came out since I was last here and found a couple more bugs. I can't seem to finish any quests on Emerald Island as the dialog boxes from NPC's won't appear. For example, the NPC you purchase the lute from, Lord Markham, and the judge. I also hired a scholar npc and items aren't being identified.

Last time I heard of this one it wasn't the mod's fault - it was an error with the translation.

Are you using a translation? Could you try it without it?

I don't think I'm using one, at least I haven't gone out of my way to do anything outside of the standard installation for english if that's what you mean by translation.

Nevermind, as is usually the case it ended up being a case of user error. Not sure what I did, but re-installing fixed the issue.

Once again, my superpower of having way too much time over weekends and having read through this now humongous thread have saved the day! (for a singular person, that is!)
And yes, an installation error was the second thing I would have guessed, but those kinda go hand in hand.

Dear fellows,
I installed the mod as instructed.
However, it doesn't seem to work for me. I wonder whether there's something to do with the fact that I am using an 64-bit win 10?
as I open the game, click on "New game", the game does not start and I was greeted the message which I pasted as follows:

(btw, already tried re-installation, compatibility settings, etc.; but still no luck.)

Apply latest patch, make sure game is not installed in "Program files" folder and "Read only" flag of game files is not set. Tell if it will work.

@Rodril

I can't thank you enough!!
It works!!!

UAC? I was going to post something about not installing into any folder that has the string "Program Files" in it's path due to UAC, but I did so several times previously on this thread and it usually wasn't the solution.

@all
Also I feel like I would snap at somebody with a Windows 10 (also known as the Malware Operating System) trying to play old games on it. Sure, you can use Dosbox. And that's about it.

Upon entering Ravage Roaming the debug console pops up. I was able to just close it and it loaded, but one time the sky didnt load in and the when i sleep at the inn, it will sometimes crash the game. Not game breaking by any means. Only issue I've found so far though.

Added to the bug tracker. Would you try to cause the debug console to pop up again like that by itself and copy paste the stack trace written there into here so we could determine more easily what lead to the bug?
It usually pops up for a reason.

Hello! Small offtopic ;P but this can be added also to MM678 Merge. I started to make visualisation of gauntlets on characters bodies. I work with this for my modification, but this can be used separetly, or also in MM678 Merge. One problem is, this project needs to "paint" many graphics (every gauntlets for all hands positions and for all races), so it would be good if someone would like to help with this.

One note. For needs of scripts that display graphics of gauntlets I recreated loupe button, but in different place, because it doesn't work correctly in place of the old one. Now the button glows on mouse over! There was unused original graphic for it in game archives.

Sure thing!
