    @Raduziel, what version do you have listed in your setup? I am quite positive that the version I uploaded works, and I see no references to "mc_dir' in my live code, which was the variable I used to refer to the file directory in the last version.

    The currently updated version is 0.3, and should not require any other files. However, if it seems to be missing the required spells, then consider deleting qd_multi_spls and letting it reinstall. Note that this will reset any multiclass kits currently implemented, but given that it seems to be broken for you, I doubt that's important.

    Currently I have v0.2 - but that's the one GitHub gave me when I downloaded it some days ago.

    @Raduziel, wow that's quite strange. I've published a release on the github page for v0.3. It should work. Please let me know if it doesn't.

    Don't worry about that. I got it covered by respectfully stealing the required folders and files from another mod (M&G IIRC).

    I can test the file you uploaded if you want to, but only by Monday - I'm on the road at the moment.

    Thanks for caring :)

    @Aquadrizzt

    I was trying to update this tool for Deities of Faerûn.

    This is what happens when I try to install:



    The related .tpa and the version of this tool that I'm using (downloaded today from Github) are in the zip file attached.

    The .tpa file related to this tool was located in DeitiesofFaerun\Lib.

    Version 0.2 with the subfolder works fine, I'm rolling back to it for now.

    Thanks!

    Hmmm curious... Might have to recode the part that generates the bass effects from scratch x.x.

    Thank you for bringing this to my attention, not entirely sure why its happening at all though... it worked fine on my local installs...

    EDIT: It might be some kind of interference between different versions... idk.

    Calling the deities: @Aquadrizzt @subtledoctor @kjeron @argent77

    Maybe one of you guys can help me...

    I'm making some multiclass kits ATM and I'm using one randomly chosen to serve as a control group.

    This is the single-class kit that is installed together with the multi-class kit:

    https://github.com/Raduziel/Deities-Of-Faerun/blob/master/DeitiesOfFaerun/Components/Auril-Kit.tpa

    As you can see here (lines 240 to 243):

    https://github.com/Raduziel/Deities-Of-Faerun/blob/master/DeitiesOfFaerun/DeitiesOfFaerun.tp2

    This is the Cleric-Mage multiclass kit:

    https://github.com/Raduziel/Deities-Of-Faerun/blob/master/DeitiesOfFaerun/Components/Auril-KitCM.tpa

    This is the kit's CLAB:

    https://github.com/Raduziel/Deities-Of-Faerun/blob/master/DeitiesOfFaerun/Tables/RAAuriCM.2da

    Ok, what are the problems:

    1) On character creation, the kit is considered a Cleric/Abjurer what means that no Alteration spells are available at character creation.

    1.1) The character is receiving the extra spell slot from specialists (I know this is a known issue with IE and I know how to fix it).

    1.2) During the game I can use and copy Alteration scrolls to the spellbook without problems, but the "Abjurer" still appearing on the Character Sheet.

    2) A permanent effect that should be applied on Lv 1 is not being applied.

    2.2) Despite that, all the other spells are being given normally and works perfectly.

    3) [ToB] on level 25, the kit is receiving the Holy Symbol of Talos instead of the one the mod provides. The single-class kit receives the proper HS correctly.

    Putting 2 and 3 together I imagine that it is a problem with the AP_ kind of spells (as both the lv 1 effects and the spell that gives the HS are AP_ and all the others that are working properly are GA_).

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Well, that explains #1. If all kits from DoF are installed I don't think that the players will bump into that.

    Any ideas about issues number #2 and #3?

    Thanks, @subtledoctor

    @subtledoctor Reporting back to say that I was able to fix everything with your insights. Thanks again!

    One question:

    I have a Cleric kit that gains d10 as HD.

    The problem is: the F/C version of this kit is gaining d9 (as any common F/C receive).

    Is there any way to make this F/C Kit in particular receive d10?

    Thanks.

    Uhhh, best I can offer is giving bonus HP via the CLAB?

    I'm pretty sure they won't utilize the right HP tables. :/

    I'm trying this, but the CLAB apparently is not applying the HP bonus at level 1 and IDK why.

    So at level 7 those F/C have 69 HP instead of 70.

    Hello @Aquadrizzt
    I had an issue installing a multiclass kit using your library, quite similar to that of @Raduziel (if by any chance you solved your problem) . Here's the debug part that concerns it.

    Copying 1 file ...
    Creating file QD_MC_AP.eff; 272 bytes
    Copying and patching 1 file ...
    Copied [.../fl-inlined/tmp] to [override/QD_MC_AP.eff]

    Creating file QD_MC_GA.eff; 272 bytes
    Copying and patching 1 file ...
    Copied [.../fl-inlined/tmp] to [override/QD_MC_GA.eff]
    DELETE_BYTES out of bounds - file is long 114, point given is 114, bytes were 200


    And the Weidu bit I used:

    base_class = ~M~ // this can take 6 values: [F]ighter, [P]riest, [D]ruid, [R]anger, [M]age, [T]hief
    END



    EDIT: I ended up using an older version of your library (the one used by @subtledoctor in MnG) and it works fine)


    Still have one issue: on my multiclass kit I apparently can't use a custom HLA table. It uses the standard one instead. But I guess that's beyond what modding can easily do so I'm gonna tweak the class instead :smile: ...


    Concerning that last issue by the way, I could make a module for your library to override the multiclass HLA table make them void, and use a dialog to provide the HLAs, with options appearing based on kit. This could allow using custom HLAs.

    As someone who's mucked around with trying to add kits, but never quite succeeded, how is this actually used? If, say, all I wanted was a multi-class using existing kits that has it's own title on the character sheet, how would that be accomplished?

    I've recently been working on multiclass kits for joinable NPCs and there is an bug where kit abilities duplicate each time a party member is kicked out and recruited again due to the way the QD_MCx##.spl files add abilities. In case anyone else runs into this problem, I made a very small modification to qd_multiclass.tpa which appears to resolve it without any issues that I've seen so far.

    Never mind, not quite. There is actually an issue I need to sort out. This fixes the duplication but it only reapplies one of each individual ability when a party member is recruited. Any ideas?

    EDIT: Thinking of applying a Protection from Spell [206] opcode to the very end of the QD_MCx##.spl files to fix this. However, I need a way to make sure the effect is always applied last.

    Original change: Apply opcodes 321 and 172 at the start of each spell file to remove the pre-existing spells before adding new ones. My brain must have died because I didn't immediately realize the obvious 'only one of each' effect this would cause.

    This was the part which got changed:
    PATCH_IF (~%string_length%~ <= 7) BEGIN 
    							//passive bonuses
    							PATCH_IF (~%abil_type%~ STRING_EQUAL ~AP_~) BEGIN 
    								//PATCH_PRINT ~%ability% > %abil_new% , LVL %col%~
    								INNER_ACTION BEGIN 
    									COPY ~%mc_dir%/QD_MC_AP.eff~ ~override/%abil_new%#.eff~
    										WRITE_EVALUATED_ASCII 0x30 ~%abil_new%~
    										SET col_length = STRING_LENGTH ~%col%~
    									ACTION_IF (%col_length% = 1) BEGIN 
    										COPY_EXISTING ~override/QD_MC%base_class%0%col%.spl~ ~override~ 
    											LPF ADD_SPELL_EFFECT INT_VAR opcode = 321 target = 1 timing = 9 resist_dispel = 0 power = 0 STR_VAR resource = EVAL ~%abil_new%~ END  
    											LPF ADD_SPELL_EFFECT INT_VAR opcode = 177 target = 1 timing = 9 resist_dispel = 0 power = 0 parameter1 = %kit_code% parameter2 = 9 STR_VAR resource = EVAL ~%abil_new%#~ END  
    									END 
    									ACTION_IF (%col_length% = 2) BEGIN
    										COPY_EXISTING ~override/QD_MC%base_class%%col%.spl~ ~override~ 
    											LPF ADD_SPELL_EFFECT INT_VAR opcode = 321 target = 1 timing = 9 resist_dispel = 0 power = 0 STR_VAR resource = EVAL ~%abil_new%~ END

    									END 
    								END 
    							END
    							
    							//granted abilities
    							PATCH_IF (~%abil_type%~ STRING_EQUAL ~GA_~) BEGIN 
    								//PATCH_PRINT ~%ability% > %abil_new% , LVL %col%~
    								INNER_ACTION BEGIN 
    									COPY ~%mc_dir%/QD_MC_GA.eff~ ~override/%abil_new%#.eff~

    @subtledoctor

    That will work, I think... there's another problem though. Opcode 206 being added directly to the QD_MC spell files won't really solve the issue since the protection gets removed as a kit ability during the kicking/recruiting process. It'll have to use opcode 146 to cast another spell which then applies the protection via 206, which won't be removed. I'm going to see how that turns out.

    Timing mode 9 has never worked like that for me. It keeps effects from being removed via death and even CTRL-R, but it still gets affected by things like opcode 321 and when NPCs get kicked out. I think I've gotten it to work now though via the method above, using opcode 146 to cast a separate spell that isn't removed.

    Hello :)

    A player is getting a problem that I can't reproduce when installing DoF. I was able to pinpoint it to the multiclass component:
    [DeitiesOfFaerun\Lib\Multiclass/QD_MC_AP.eff] loaded, 272 bytes

    Similar errors are happening in every MC component.

    Do you guys have any insight? Never had this problem with DoF and it started happening with 2.5 for the player. But I have 2.5 and, as I said, never had this problem and no other player reported a similar issue.

    The player's SETUP.DEBUG and Weidu.log are attached.

    Thanks!
