Help with strange potion bug ?!

Post by JayBrainDead » Wed Mar 21, 2018 6:57 am

Alright so I was getting to a point where I was pretty satisfied with all the changes I made to the game tested for a few minutes and everything was fine, so I decided pack it into the d2_patch.mpq.

Im now scared that something went VERY wrong because I cant use any hp pots ,mana pots or revuvs either from belt or inventory. When I Look at their description it shows 0 value for all sizes of pots and they are not drinkable anymore. Same thing goes for stamina potions but not antidotes and thawing potions.

What happenned am I missing a file or something ? The only probable cause I could think of is that my itemtypes.bin file was either missing or corrupted so I tried to replace it by a version i had backed up a long time ago ( I hope its clean ) but that still didnt solve the issues. What could be linked to this ?

I'm worried that if i cant figure it out i might have to start WAY back :(
Edit: Restoring itemtypes didnt solve this issues
I also noticed since then that I occasinally get a ''0 Gold'' drop which is also really strange I can click on it but it doesnt grant me any gold

Edit: There is probably a strong link between the 2. Also I havent made any changes that i can think of since the last time i was able to drink potions execpt for packing my files into mpq.
I Found out that I was wearing an item with a -xx% gold from monster and that is what cause theese weird occurences, still taking apart everyfile to find what is wrong with potions

check if compact save is disabled for those item types.

It is enabled for all of those items.

Oh well I was wondering if I should port my mod to 1.14d, if I must start over I guess now would be time ^^ the only thing I liked better about 1.13d is plugy enabled uber and world event. If i some point I manage to patch it in myself that wont be necessary

Edit : I now figured out what file was causing the potion bug, it wasnt itemtypes like I initially thought but misc.bin thank god i didnt have many thing changed from the original this should be easily fixed if i just export a clean one and rebuild it :) Everything should be fine
