Easiest way to check is verify whether Priest class descriptions include their favored and disfavored dispositions. If not, then it's not working. I'll test. Class descriptions where? In the glossary? Character creation?

November 1, 20205 yr Yep, should appear right there. Thank you for checking. @Elric Galadany idea why it may not be working? Files all appear to be in order. "Time is not your enemy.

November 1, 20205 yr Which files do you download? CommunityPatch - Typos Version 1.0.1 ? I don't see any text changes for the Magran text in this patch.

November 1, 20205 yr Yes, but this post above about: Not there at character creation for hired adventurer. If there is no text in the typo patch files.... no wonder it does not work. Also please note that some text at char creation is used from abilities.stringtable and some from gui.stringtable. The are duplicated but only take sometimes from one file or from the other.
November 1, 20205 yr Ah, I see what you mean. I've just downloaded the typo component from the Nexus and it is indeed lacking the dispositions I'd added to abilities.stringtable. I'll add them to gui.stringtable too *, but I don't think that's the (only) problem. I've run into typos I'd already fixed in my current playthrough, which suggests the typo component just isn't working at all—and I have no idea why. * I'd added the text to the class description, whereas gui.stringtable only carries the bonus spells they earn so no modification necessary there.

November 1, 20205 yr There could be many reason. Loading order, wrong directory layout. Other mods overwriting the changes, etc. How many mods do you have and how are they installed. Steam, override folder?

My files follow the same folder structure as can be seen in those downloaded from the Nexus, as I tried to replicate exactly the originals' directory. I'm loading it close to last; I'd need to check, but I believe only the improved UI mod is loaded after it. "Time is not your enemy.

November 1, 20205 yr The improved UI Mod also replaces text. In fact that's how this mod works. It adds symbols and additional text to the existing text lines. If there is a spelling error in the text and is loaded last, then this text will be displayed.
November 2, 20205 yr No dice. I've tried loading the typo stuff exclusively and still can't get the dispositions to show. "Time is not your enemy.

November 2, 20205 yr Do you have an example? An ID in the text file which is easy to test? So you have only the type addon activated and it still does not work? Edited November 2, 20205 yr by Aurelio
November 2, 20205 yr All right, I got it to work both by itself and in conjunction with other mods (loaded second-to-last, with Enhanced UI loaded last.) The dispositions only show in the ability tree, so I'll find the strings that display during character creation to add them there as well. Last I checked, I couldn't find them in gui.stringtable so they might be elsewhere. * I'll also look into adding favored and disfavored dispositions to Paladin orders. The true test, however, will be whether I run again into a typo I've already fixed. A typo in the text where you recruit Oswald as a crew member is what tipped me off the first time. We'll see. Here's the updated package as it is right now for those interested: CommunityPatchTypos.rar Thanks for checking and helping out, @Aurelio and @Ivanfyodorovich! * EDIT: They're in cyclopedia.stringtable for every deity but Woedica. I'm not sure I want to put dispositions in the cyclopedia entry, though. Thoughts? Edited November 2, 20205 yr by AndreaColombo "Time is not your enemy.

November 2, 20205 yr hey while doing some AI scripting I noticed some issues in vanilla: the AI doesn't recognize kalakoth's minor blights or arkemyr's enchanted armory as "summoned weapons" which leads to some scripting troubles. is this something that can easily be fixed by a missing keyword or something?
November 4, 20205 yr Anybody know what file hosts King Wingauro's dialog from The Beast of Winter? I can't seem to find it. I also couldn't fine the Steel Garrote class description anywhere.

November 4, 20205 yr Thank you, @Kvellen Would you happen to know the whereabouts of the dialog from your very first encounter with Furrante, when he hands you Serafen? "Time is not your enemy.

November 4, 20205 yr @AndreaColombo I believe 17_cv_principi_boss_portmaje_shallows.stringtable contains everything to do with that conversation, and 09_si_principi_boss_encounter.stringtable everything to do with the scripted interaction that proceeds it.
November 4, 20205 yr It does indeed. How do you find these so efficiently? I'd been looking for that one for forever! "Time is not your enemy.

November 4, 20205 yr Don't know how Kvellen does it, but if you create a project for an IDE (such as Visual Studio, Eclipse, PhpStorm or whatever) from such sources you can search for strings of text in all files easily. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
November 4, 20205 yr Interesting. That would save me a metric ton of time. How would I got about it in Visual Studio? "Time is not your enemy.

November 4, 20205 yr 1 hour ago, AndreaColombo said: It does indeed. How do you find these so efficiently? I'd been looking for that one for forever! Process of elimination really. Looking for a folder that might correspond to the location for the encounter or the place the character is frequently found. Skimming through the names of the files in those folders looking for anything that might match the name of the character (or even the name of another character in the same conversation), location where the conversation takes place, or a vague description of the encounter/character. Then opening up any file that seems like it might be right in Notepad++, and searching for a piece of text I know should be there. I'd probably have looked in the folder where the character's audio files are located, and see if I could track down the name of the conversation from one of the files. Files that correspond to things added in DLC and patches usually tend to be one of the lax*_exported folders. Which was the case for the Steel Garrote. Edited November 4, 20205 yr by Kvellen
November 4, 20205 yr I always use notepad++ and the "search in files" option with subdirectories. If you know the text you are looking for it should be easy to find all spots where the text is used.
November 4, 20205 yr Notepad++ is probably a good choice since it's rel. lightweight. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
