Icewind Dale 2 - so I wonder

Ok I may have missed a subtle point - you're saying the IE engine does it this way? I.e. that it gives wolves a natural attack item, and you're just reproducing this?
If so, make sure it can't be looted / disarmed hehe.

 

Off course not, it would be inconsiderable and well quite primitive. My producer class will see such items and transform them into natural attack setup for an NPC.

 

Figured out how to setup scenery area sound dynamically. There are undocumented flags: OSCF_* which I think should be moved to constants.py in T+.

Code:

OSCF_NO_AUTO_ANIMATE  = 1
OSCF_BUSTED  = 2
OSCF_NOCTURNAL  = 4
OSCF_MARKS_TOWNMAP  = 8
OSCF_IS_FIRE  = 0x10
OSCF_RESPAWNABLE  = 0x20
OSCF_SOUND_SMALL  = 0x40
OSCF_SOUND_MEDIUM  = 0x80
OSCF_SOUND_EXTRA_LARGE  = 0x100
OSCF_UNDER_ALL  = 0x200
OSCF_RESPAWNING  = 0x400
OSCF_TAGGED_SCENERY  = 0x800
OSCF_USE_OPEN_WORLDMAP  = 0x1000

cabb = toee.game.obj_create(2068, utils_obj.sec2loc(448, 493))
cabb.obj_set_int(toee.obj_f_sound_effect, 4111)
cabb.obj_set_int(toee.obj_f_scenery_flags, const_toee.OSCF_SOUND_SMALL)

Overall, sounds in IWD2 is huge pain in the ass. Fighting with it for 3rd day now. Many thanks to @Allyx , who did initial research here.

 

I reckon you get the same effect with drop bears

 

Completed sounds. At least at some workable solution.

I'm not using cabbage objects as sound source. The issue is that it will play in a loop from some origin. But IWD2 often has many more sounds for one origin.

For example:

Code:

        amb = ctrl_ambients.AmbientHanlder()
        loc = utils_obj.sec2loc(452, 483)
        amb.setup(name="Sail Flaps1", flags="Enabled, RandomOrder", frequency=5, frequency_variation=0, radius=300, loc=loc, schedule="ALL")
        amb.setup_sound(sound_id=4138, durationf=3.948345, volume=70, title="AR1000\Sail Flaps1 AM1000M1")
        amb.setup_sound(sound_id=4139, durationf=4.373333, volume=70, title="AR1000\Sail Flaps1 AM1000M2")
        amb.setup_sound(sound_id=4140, durationf=3.601678, volume=70, title="AR1000\Sail Flaps1 AM1000M3")
        amb.setup_sound(sound_id=4141, durationf=3.601678, volume=70, title="AR1000\Sail Flaps1 AM1000M4")
        amb.setup_sound(sound_id=4142, durationf=2.998367, volume=70, title="AR1000\Sail Flaps1 AM1000M5")
        self.ambients.append(amb)

So I had to create some sort of handler code to pick sound at random and implement cooldown.

The only issue is that I want new function in the Temple:
game.sound_local_loc_ex(sound_id, loc, volume, loop_count = 0, sound_size_type = 2)

So I could set volume and size type of 3 (extra large) or 1 (small). What do you say @Sitra Achara ?

 

Do you mean you need a new c function? I assume you can handle epxanding the api.

 

At some level - yes.

I will have to dive into Sound_1003BC90 from Sound_Local_Medium. And refactor into new function. Not an easy task I'd say.
Btw I'm still amazed how did you came up with SoundStream structure in the code in 2016.

 

Potion of Healing
When wholly consumed, this potion restores 9 hit points to the person. The effect is instantaneous and the potion is destroyed in the process.

STATISTICS:

Heals 9 points of damage
Weight: 1 lb.
Price: 75 gp

So do we create this, or use Potion of Cure Light Wounds (Price: 50 gp)?
Thoughts?

 

You get shit done when you're a single student, hehe.

 

A simple solution is to use 3.0’s or 3.5’s item rules.

 

Status update.
Created readme.md with steps to install for users and devs. https://github.com/anatoliy-savchak/toee.zmod.iwd2

Created some items, via newly created ProtoBuilder class in produce scripts. Now it looks like that:

Code:

ProtoBuilderItem(producer_app).cfp(9000).ufi("10Vellum").sp(12711).sf(idx_obj_f_item_flags, "OIF_IS_MAGICAL OIF_NO_DECAY").save()

It will find available proto slot for given obj_type range and produce tab and mes files with description and unidentified description automatically.

What is more important, that script will automatically create and add inventory icon from png to tga (center it if necessary) and put it into inventory.mes.

Now it's time to test and debug dialogs. It would be nice to already have your testing automation API @Sitra Achara ))

 

@Shiningted
I see your point and raise you double!
