[REL] Patchfix for Fanpatch 1.17

[ShadowDweller]

Aww >_< I understand... Well, if you manage to get some free time (perhaps, after the exams?), could you look at it? Those sounds apparently were present in vanilla TQ :-/

Are you saying the sounds are gone only after spectre's update? Have not tested yet myself.

I created a new version of my CameraMod, included with all files from Malgardian's/spectre's Patchfix 2DL. PotionStacking also included.

Click me (It's a link to an extern topic / german forum).


Cheerio!

€: oops, there're the _ger files in the package. You only need the db.arz out of it, if you want to play with CameraMod.

Thank you Devil's Girlfriend!!

[ShadowDweller]

spectre's fix is perfectly fine, it's just that those sounds disappeared right when Immortal Throne was released. I suspect that something happened to the database.

Thanks Spectre <3 Patch works like a charm

[spectre]

@flix: I didn't do anything to the sounds, as ShadowDweller already stated. He talked about pre-IT TQ in comparison to TQIT v1.1

@ShadowDweller: Well, that might be due to the fact that they were no longer needed...but without further knowledge, all we can do is speculate Could you give me a specific example? A dbr file where it is most apparent, perhaps? That would save me a lot of time

@itorrent: Good to hear

@DGF: Welcome

[ShadowDweller]

Just as an example: Records\Sounds\SoundPak\Spells\Storm\LightningBolt HitPak.dbr
All three sound effects are present both in the datafile and in the archive, but those used are just 1 and 3. What sets me on alert is that the 4th sound field is empty.

[spectre]

Thanks, I'll have a look at it tomorrow

If I remember right, there are about thousands of errors of this type. Misdirected sound files, typos in loottables, etc. It was something that we had hoped to address at some point, but the tedium and scope of the job was almost overwhelming... I don't know if vorbis (I think he was the last one working on all of these) ever made any headway or not...

@spectre - Thanks for addressing some of the more obvious issues - hopefully you'll give your permission for them to be integrated into any future version of a fanpatch if one ever emerges....
