BGEE v2.5 Updates
« on: April 19, 2018, 08:45:41 AM »
BGEE v2.5 includes a number of new features that will conflict with some of BG1UB's components:
* There should be a conclusion to the vial of mysterious liquid found in the Nashkel Mines (35148)
* Kivan should interject when you encounter Tazok at the bandit camp (35147)
* Branwen should interject when confronting Tranzig in Beregost (35121)
* You should be able to finish Kagain's caravan quest (35003)
* You should be able to interact with Entar at his estate in NW Baldur's Gate (35176)

http://blog.beamdog.com/2018/04/baldurs-gate-enhanced-edition-25-beta.html

Since these fixes only apply to v2.5 or later, I'm implementing a check for BDENTBOY.CRE to detect BGEE v2.5 (Thanks to Balquo for the file check suggestion). This check will stop the following components from being installed on BGEE v2.5:
* The Mysterious Vial
* Finishable Kagain Caravan Quest
* Kivan and Tazok
* Branwen and Tranzig
* Place Entar Silvershield in His Home

Note: Some other BG1UB components are already blocked on BGEE; this list is just those being blocked specifically for BGEE v2.5. These components will still be installable on earlier versions of BGEE.

EDIT: Changes are pushed to my GitHub repository. Will be included in the next release.

Balquo pointed out that BGEE v2.5 also includes a new feature: Prism's emeralds should be placed in each eye in the statue he created (34442)

This will conflict with the "Prism and the Emeralds Tweak" component of BG1UB.

Gnah. After all the work plainab and also I spent with that one. Oh well, I am surely not going to complain that BG:EE is being updated.
