Spell Fixes & Improvements [EtOpIST edition]

This mod provides fixes and improvements for about 300 various spells, bard songs, and invocations.

It is based on "Spell Fixes & Improvements" mod by Reeron and Trekari who did really a great job:

https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn2/script/spell-fixes-and-improvements

This mod is an attempt to make Spell Fixes & Improvements work with EE and to make it even a bit better.


MAIN CHANGES

3.5 Classes improvements, MotB blessings and item recipes were removed for compatibility reasons and now this edition is almost exactly matches its name: SPELL fixes and improvements :-)

I've also reverted to original state some imbalanced spells like Greater Invisibility which keeps you invisible even after hostile actions which completely breaks single player campaigns as almost all enemies are unable to see through invisibility and are just beaten to death by permanently invisible player party :-)

Feel free to ask questions or give feedback about your experience with the mod :-)


IMPORTANT!

UPDATED IN-GAME ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONS FOR UPDATED SPELLS, FEATS AND OTHER THINGS

To get updated English descriptions you need to install additional mod with custom English dialog.tlk file, here is the link to it:

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3529073189

PLEASE NOTE:

If you have non-English language in-game it will be replaced with English from this new English dialog.tlk. So, you may choose not to install updated English descriptions if you don't want this change.

If you have custom dialog.tlk installed by any other mod there will be file conflict between your already installed dialog.tlk file and this one - only one will actually work while another will be just ignored by the game. So, you need to choose one you want more and uninstall another.


Mod is conceptually divided into 5 parts (folders):

Spells fixed

Contains spells that were just fixed. No balancing done to the scripts or not brought into line with PnP.

Spells fixed (already PnP)

Contains spells that were just fixed. No balancing done to the scripts but are already in-line with PnP).

Spells improved

Contains spells that are tweaked and balanced a little, such as the summon spells having longer durations.

Spells fixed and improved towards PnP

Contains spells that were either improved and balanced towards PnP or were fixed because they were broken, and in the process, they were fixed to use their PnP stats.

Shared 2da files

Includes shared 2da files required for correct work of other mod parts:

spells.2da - required for most spell fixes and improvements,

feat.2da - required for feats and spells depending on feats like melee and ranged touch specializations,

range.2da - required for spell range fixes and improvements

and so on.

Includes txt file for each 2da file so you can see exactly what was changed.

This folder contains important info for some of the scripts (such as the spell "Poison") and the targeting info for the spells so that the targeting marker is the correct size/shape for the fixed spell scripts. Without it some of the functionality of the spells will be incorrect. They will still work, but they won't work correctly.

Also, this folder is required for Persistent Displacement, Hideous Blow, Cone of Cold, Battletide, Prismatic Spray, Weird, Cloudkill, Cloud of Bewilderment, Creeping Doom, and Grease to work correctly.

IMPORTANT

Do not remove 2da files folder unless you want to break any or most of the fixes and improvements.

PLEASE NOTE:

This division into 5 parts is generally just conceptual and made for clarity purposes. All mod parts are interconnected and interdependent. It's not recommended to partially or fully delete any of the mod folders: do it on your risk and if you exactly know what you are doing.


Complete description of all spell fixes and improvements in alphabetic order

Due to limited character number in mod description I've made a separate detailed Steam guide with complete description of all spell fixes and improvements:
