[BG:EE] Release familiar from pack doesn't work
Opened this issue · 0 comments
As reported by CajunAzn on G3 forums, in BGEE if you put the familiar in the pack and release it, the familiar doesn't show up—and dissappears from the bag (and you can't summon again)!
The reason this is happening is that baldur.bcs is not getting patched with the code from newfam.baf, which handles the global variables set when the "Release Familiar" ability is used. In the setup-wtpfamiliars.tp2, the installer looks for the block of code in oldfam.baf to replace with the code in newfam.baf.
However, the replacement search fails because of the line for BG2:EE's baldur.bcs:
MoveGlobalObject("fampsd",Player1) // Pseudo-dragon
is changed in BG:EE's baldur.bcs to:
MoveGlobalObject("fampsd",Player1) // Pseudo Dragon
Yes, it's weird that WeiDU will care what the comment string is for REPLACE_BCS_BLOCK 🤷, but I created a modified setup-wtpfamiliars.tp2 and oldfam.bat that fixes this (and the other two bugs I reported).
