Ted's mod is HERE

Well, I think that's what I'm doing. Asking questions. But thanks for the info. At least I have a partial list, and it looks like there's some good stuff there.

 

If you gimme a day or two I'll scrap up all I have and make a post. I would have gotten a little more detailed but I just worked all night and was heading off to bed, sorry man =/ Hope that post didn't sound like I was knocking you, cause I wasn't. I lack subtlety in my posts sometimes =/

 

No sweat. I work 7 days a week myself, although not at nights. I know about being tired and not thinking straight, especially since I have to get up at 4:30 am. But I'll look forward to that post whenever you get it ready. Thanks.

 

There is a tread in the general modding forum which is a list of console commands here

 

Yeah, I just found that thread about an hour ago. Thanks.

 

Minor flaws: My pointer no longer changes to the grasping hand, runner, etc. Sunom will give her item for Desperate Housewives every time you report no more trouble. My custom portraits now cause ctd (no biggie on that one)

 

I reinstalled them and they still crash. As I said, It's no biggie, just some naked women...

About the pointer though. I know nothing of modding or how it might affect other portions of the game so I ask: Could the pointer no longer changing be linked somehow to the pointer/giant head item or am I just showing my ignorance?

 

The strange looking giant head icon is a result of either the wrong number in the protos or inventory.mes (kinda = the same thing) anyway, the icon is a "default" icon the game uses when it doesn't know what it's sposed to be looking for.

 

Would a "blessings for the dead" dialog option with Calmert work?

Rather than mess with his existing inventory, you could tell him you need a blessing for the un-quiet dead. He gives you a price, you say yes or no, and the scroll is placed in your inventory. It could be done in the same way as buying Masterwork items from the smith.

 

Hi,

I'm new to this message board, so only recently downloaded and installed Ted's mod (following the instructions regarding official patches, co8 patch, Liv's patch, Ted's patch etc), and I am experiencing a minor (but critical) problem.

After killing Lareth (didn't need him), I attempted to loot his draws for his journal etc, but the game refused to open the looting window. The cursor changes to a hand when hovering over the draws, open lock can be used on them successfully, but it simply doesn't open the looting window.

At first I thought this was because I have recently installed Direct X 9.0c, so rolled that back to 9.0 to no avail. Then I attempted reinstalling 9.0c and adding official patch 3 over the top to fix the problem, again to no avail. I also tried placing the save game and character files into the appropriate directories of a fresh install (no patches), and renaming them appropriately, but that didn't work (crash on load - about what I expected for such an obvious hack).

Has anybody else experienced this problem, and if so, could you please tell me your work-around for the situation? I don't mind restarting the game (it's obviously in early stages), but don't want to waste time getting stuck at the same point each time.

Thanks in advance!

PS: I've found that you can ask Frank for sugar multiple times, then trade it for the cauldron multiple times. You can also tell the weaver's wife that the goblins won't be causing prolems any more multiple times, and get the apparatus multiple times. If this is already fixed, then obviously what I dl'ed wasn't the latest version - which might explaing the Lareth problem.
