I'll see what I can do when I have the time. The base version they started with was mine, but they did a ton of work on it since that Kudos to them!!!!
I fixed the slayer bug some time ago locally on my installation by adding the following to SPIN718.spl:
PATCH_IF GAME_IS ~bg2ee eet~ BEGIN
PATCH_FOR_EACH res_slay IN slayer2 slayer3 slayer4 BEGIN
LAUNCH_PATCH_FUNCTION ADD_SPELL_EFFECT
INT_VAR opcode = 321 //Remove effects by resource
target = 1 //Self
parameter2 = 2 //Timed effects only
resist_dispel = 3 //Dispel/Bypass resistance
STR_VAR resource = EVALUATE_BUFFER ~%res_slay%~
END
END
END
The problem is, this won't work for the nonEE version, I tried to outsource the damage to an extra spell and using opcode 206 against it, but it doesn't work...
But maybe it's better to add this solution as long as no other solution is found.
@badungu Unless @Cuv or someelse tell me that there is no possible way of fixing this bug for the old engine, I can't accept you PR for now, because BWS use new Ascension also for BG2. I can accept it later and change BG2 to use old Ascension if there will be desire to improve Ascension by using new opcodes or if the bugs can't be fixed unless EE.
Nothing is changed if Ascension is installed on BG2 nonEE, that's why I used PATCH_IF GAME_IS ~bg2ee eet~ BEGIN. (I looked through Ascension 1.4.x and the bug should be also in the old version, so why change it back?)
You don't have to include it, only wanted to help...
has anyone else had that epilouge issue i talked about afew months ago? i still have no idea what caused it and may be avoiding the beta until the official version because of that and other small bugs i had during end game.
for exmple sometimes the last of the five won't die and the final boss will go on a loop and also won't die even if i cntrl y her.
Hmm, only one question, was your main character male or female? I think the female end epilogues was bugged out, sent another commit to github...
Hi guys, just wanted to drop in and update you on how my Ascension with SCS playthrough went.
I installed the game through the BWP installer and that was relatively pain free.
I used four of the hotfixes from this thread:
– The SCS fix was necessary and worked fine for me – I encountered the slayer bug in my playthrough so had to use the slayer fix – The Throne of Blood was a bit of a disaster. First time round the pools didn't work so I installed the pool and the area fix and reloaded. After I defeated the Five I ran in to a bug where Melissan just wouldn't die when she was supposed to summon her demons. I had to Clua Console the solar in to fix it.
Thanks anyway for all of the hard work put in to making this all work!

yes i was playing as a female elf to see the xan romance. my last run i did not have Ascension installed and that was male.
I just had a planetar kill Yaga Shura with a vorpal weapon...and EEKeeper shows that he and the rest of the Five do not have Protection from Opcode 13...Is this intended behaviour? (I have SCS30 installed)
Can someone tell me what "remove anyone identifier" is? I can't find it in the readmes, can't find it on the forums, no one seems to be talking about it.
Hey, just dropping a line to see how this mod is going? I've seen reading up the page that installing it might require having a fix installed along with it? Mostly just wondering if/when the next update will be, if any, or if that fix has now already been incorporated into the core download.
I did tryed out the BP ascension mod (that was also advised to be installed with SCS) on the BG2EE and tried to follow the instruction as well as possible to make this worked out. The game run pretty fine as it is, until i encountered Abazigal and right now he won't trigger his death script. Can somebody kind enough could help me solve this problem ? I tried to seek a solution on several forum but i didn't found any of the awnser i'm looking for. If i need to open a new post for this particular glitch, could someone tell me how i should do it ? I'm pretty new to this forum so i'm not realy used to how it does work and how i should procede with this matter at all.
1. Download the zip file here: https://forums.beamdog.com/uploads/FileUpload/2c/93c36268d6c29dcd37a80457a583d2.7z or here: https://github.com/whiteagnus/Ascension/archive/master.zip (the last one is the current version, which had applied some patches to it... ) 2.1 if you used the file attached to the 1st post, copy the setup-ascension.exe and the ascension folder into your game directory (there is the baldur.exe and the chitin.key inside it) 2.2 If you used the updated github version, copy the ascension folder from the Ascension-master folder in your game directory (there is the baldur.exe and the chitin.key inside it), fetch the latest weidu version: http://www.weidu.org/~thebigg/ (download the Windows binary), extract the weidu.exe (from the weidu directory) to your game directory and rename it to setup-ascension.exe 3. start the setup-ascension.exe in your game directory, by double klicking it, if it asks something like "Do you want to allow...", press yes 4. A black command line window appears 5. If you didn't have installed a weidu mod before, select the language (this is the language, you want to play in your game) by pressing the number on the keyboard and press enter 6. Now you need to choose the langauge which you want the mod to install, by pressing the number and enter 7. Now you could install components, the options are i for "install", n for "not install" and q for "quit", hit enter after you choosed your selection...
If I follow the steps, renaming the weidu.exe into setup-ascension.exe after extracting it into the game folder then all I get is an error message and after that all I can do is exit the setup.
Is there a better/working guide somewhere where they show how to install it?
Cause this one doesnt work.
Did exactly what is said here but this wont work. Using win 10.
How do you really install ascension in a proper way for BG2EE? This guuide no good.

Excellent, I'm glad that this project did not die.

What's the status on the most recent update for this? Is it fully compatible with BG2EE yet?
both irenicus and bodhi if you don't use "redemption"
and no five at all?
