    Very nice! I applaud the long term commitment you guys have made to this and related IE engine tools!

    Avenger, is this for the 32 or 64 bit version of Total Commander? I have not used it, but it looks darned interesting.

    Will DLTCEP and savegame editors such as Gatekeeper and Shadowkeeper still work with the new BGEE engine?

    I assume 32 bits, since i have only winxp, and this is around for 5-6 years already. I use it for 64 bit linux (find the source on site)

    BGEE devs use it. So, i guess it will work :)

    Thanks. I know it's not really a modding tool, but does anyone know at this time if savegame editors like Shadowkeeper will work with the new BGEE engine?
  • Avenger_teambgAvenger_teambg Member, Developer Posts: 5,862
    Most likely, yes, but i'm not in the position to promise that. SK is not actively supported, i think. So, even the slightest change in the formats can break it.

    @Avenger_teambg Do you think it is possible to break the limitation of 256 colors for the bam files ? I don't ask this, for a file like a potion (with transparency), but for the buttons on GUI.
  • Avenger_teambgAvenger_teambg Member, Developer Posts: 5,862
    @Kerozevok i don't think so. If the limit is broken, it is not a .bam anymore.

    It doesn't look like its reading the world map for BGEE correctly.

    So this is Windows only; no Mac support? (I saw one wine-wrapped version, but it is out of date...)
  • Avenger_teambgAvenger_teambg Member, Developer Posts: 5,862
    All DLTCEP works under Wine so-so. There are some wine bugs that they still didn't fix in 10 years :)

    I've got DLTCEP 7.6g working under Wine. The biggest issue is that settings paths outside the emulated Windows filesystem don't work. I used @Nifft's trick and created symbolic links in the C:\Program Files\ directory inside the wrapper to the Resources directories for BG:EE and BG2:EE.. Then, you tell DLTCEP that BGEE and BG2EE are in C:\Program Files\BGEE and C:\Program Files\BG2EE, respectively.

    How does DLTCEP work with Weidu? Does it do Weidu's job of avoiding string references?
  • GrammarsaladGrammarsalad Member Posts: 2,582
    ? Do you mean does it create new strings? Not that i know of. But weidu is great for that.

    Are you familiar with SAY ?

    Actually dltcep does create new strings if the old reference is set to -1 first. Otherwise, it overwrites the previous string. There is also an option to always create new strings, or reuse existing strings if there is an exact match. You will always need weidu if you want an installable mod anyway. DLTCEP can also export/import small mods in the IAP/TBG format, but weidu surpassed these features a long time ago.
