Attaching the Avlis haks/tlks to other modules

Post by Gairus » Thu May 13, 2004 3:27 am

Did this easily enough a few months ago but it's giving me grief this time. (attach copap and universal hacks with the toolset and yer good to go)

Trying to futz around and have fun with the prestige classes (especially confounder) at epic levels using the HotU OC and a trainer module. I seem to be having some TLK problems though because I can't get them to appear on the level-up list.

Since they show up in Avlis i'm assuming I have to do something different with them now that TLKs have their own folder?

Go to Module Properties -> Custom Content. Add copaphak and then universal hak, and make sure they appear in that order (copap at the top). At the bottom of that window is a drop down menu where you can attach the custom tlk file.

Current versions are copaphak3_1, universalhak_3_0, and copaptlk_2_0.

Ok, so it was as simple as attaching the dialog.tlk... an extra step from the earlier method. I also forgot the order mattered, though chance let me get that right.

So I could have just done it instead of asking. Oh well, maybe someone else will go searching and want the whole process.

Thanks Aloro :)

EDIT: Good lord, i'm blind. When I finally went to try again I noticed how obvious that tlk step was. Gah.

On the off chance this is fixable on the client end, problem part 2:
With both haks and the TLK attached, many of the special abilities don't work (mostly Avlis specific ones funnily enough). They appear on the ability list and can be hotkeyed but do nothing, hence the scripts aren't active.

Stuff like whirling flail and the summons, confounder wildshape, presige detects and the various smites.

Anything I can do that requires meinimal technical knowledge on my end? I'm not about to go recreating scripts obviously enough. If I need to access top secret behind the scenes scripts i'm probably out of luck though. :cry:

That said, fighters without the extra feats or specialisation still seem to do just fine offline :)

I wonder how to add the UMD system used in Avlis to a custom module, also the Avlis TS.

I already added the haks Avlis uses.
