Serious Casting Problem
« on: August 31, 2005, 01:08:00 AM »
It may not be the mod itself but I thought I'd post here anyway since it has to do with Kelsey. The problem is that I will command Kelsey to cast a spell but instead of just casting that spell the game thinks I've cast another spell too. For instance, Kelsey has 4 lower resistance and breach spells. When he casts lower resistance the info box says he cast lower resistance but when I look at his "spell book" the number of breach spells available was lowered also though he never did so. So instead of having 3 lower resistance spells and 4 breach spells Kelsey now has 3 breach spells and 3 lower resistance spells as if he cast both at the same tiime.

It's the first time I've seen something like this happen. I was wondering if there is a wasy to reset something or other so it doesn't happen. I'd hate to restore a clean install so I thought I'd post here first.

Oh, I've tried pressing K and L on Kelsey's highlighted portrait and ctrl-y and ctrl-r too. I have a ton of mods too so if you need a list let me know. If anyone can help... Thanks in advanced.

This appears to be simply the way the game handles sorcerer spell-casting.  Kelsey does not have "4 Breach" and "4 Lower Resistance" spells.  He has 4 5th-level spells.  He can cast either "breach" or "lower resistance", but, so soon as he casts one, the total number he can cast for the day decreases.

Jeez, you would think this would be mentioned in the game manual or in the kit discription. Is it so hard to write "Instead of memorizing spells, the sorcerer chooses spell to cast at a level up and is limited to a certain number of spell castings per spell level." or something to this effect? Why have all the guess work? Grrr! >:(

Or maybe I'm just an idiot for not realizing this sooner. Someone delete this topic.  :-[

It does say that actually.
Now, at last, the masks had fallen away.  The strings of the puppets had become visible, and the hands of the prime mover exposed.  Most ironic of all was the last gift that Raziel had given me, more powerful than the sword that now held his soul, more acute even than the vision his sacrifice had accorded me - the first bitter taste of that terrible illusion:  Hope.
