Dialog.tlk
« on: December 02, 2005, 12:53:01 PM »
Hello!

Out of curiosity I have this question.

I have installed Dudleyville's Dialog.tlk which overwrites the one set by Baldurdash Text Game Update.

In Candlekeep I go to temple of Oghma and it says correctly "Temple of Oghma"

I install then a WeiDu Mod for Baldur's Gate (The Vault version 4.0).

I go to the same temple and now it says "Uh oh", obviously using the wrong string. There might be many other places where some wrong text will be displayed. I didn't venture far.

Now my question is: aren't WeiDu mods supposed to never screw up the Dialog.tlk ?

Thanks!

For some reason a few of the STOs in this mod are copied over without patching any strings which results in what you have experienced.

The fact that the mod uses Weidu gives it a possibility of being more compatible. But it doesn't mean it has to be so. Some mods just use weidu as a installer but in fact work in a "good ol' overwrite way"

Thanks for your answers!

Echon, I would like to have you as guest for New Year's day! We don't live that far...  ;D

UPDATE: I wrote "like" instead of "live" before...That may have confused you!  ::)

Echon lives in Denmark and I live in Sweden... ;D
He's welcome to come and visit any time he likes  ;)
Celebrating the New Year together here would be nice!
By the way, thanks Borsook for supporting me about that... :P
