PCs with odd HP values on DM client

Post by dergon darkhelm »

Weird bug when I log in to BG to try to learn how to DM

First all PCs were showing as 15/15 HP (even though their total much different)

Logged out/in --- now one PCs doesn't show at all and the other still 15/15.


Anyone seen this bug and got a notion of how to fix?

My DMC does the same thing. I have to examine the pc to see there true HP. You can do this by right clicking their portrait. Quickest work around I have found.

You can't really tell anything about the PC by scrolling your mouse over the sidebar portrait like you used to in NWN1. You have to actually examine them. You can also use the omega wand on the ground, go to creatures, "who's where in what condition" and see information for all PCs on the server that way. But fair warning the Omega wand doesn't work at all if you've just possessed an NPC, you have to actually leave the area to refresh it :roll: Oh and threads like these should probably go in the DM discussion forum. Not that it's a big deal, just sayin.

Also be aware that right clicking on a player or their portrait while possessing an NPC has a reasonable chance of crashing the DM Client ;)

Does this happen while using Skywing's Client Extender? If so, we need to get the crashlogs and pass them along to Skywing, I wouldn't be surprised if he can sort it out for his next version.

I don't know if it happens with the extender but it does without. I do not use that client extension because, for the DM client, it creates more issues than it solves.

I don't know what this Skywing thing is ...so I'm gonna guess no.
