Does anyone have any thoughts on my question? Maybe this plugin only works with the English version of SoD (and I have the "Complete Collection" from Buku)?
I have the Russian version of the complete collection. Everything works; I can't imagine what the problem might be.

But I also have the HD mod and SoD_SP in versions that aren't the latest; maybe that's the issue.

What an ambush! And could you use my save file to advance the turn and upload the save file for the beginning of the next day, if the plague month doesn't start? Because of this problem, I can't continue!

Marlo_Stanfield, thank you very much! :smile20:
I have the HD mod version 5.0 beta 38, and SoD_SP version 1.13. It's probably the issue. What versions do you have, and can I download them from you (older versions of the HD mod are available on the website, I think)?

HD mod 5.0 beta 11, SoD_SP 1.00. It hasn't been updated for a while (due to various bugs, and I don't like installing updates).

@Marmot
It should be compatible regardless of version as long as you use the HD mod.
Sample
So far, I've seen that 99.9% of bad installations prevent it from working.

One person reported that it worked after restarting. :confused:

In case the translator botched the job:

RoseKavalier, thanks!
I simply was download earlier version (SoD_SP_2017_09_12) and IT WORKS!

Could be code generation, I am puzzled.
If you wish to try, tell me if this dll version with v1.13 works for you.

RoseKavalier, it works, but only on the adventure map (F12 shows options, etc.): if I attack any monsters, the HD mod crashes. Now I will try all SoD_SP versions until everything is OK...

If anyone else encounters the same difficulties with the SoD_SP plugin as I did, here is a summary of my experiments to help you.
After trying out the available versions of SoD_SP, I found out the following:
- Earlier versions, consisting of 2 files + a description, only work on the adventure map; when attempting to fight monsters, the game crashes;
- Newer versions, starting with 2017_10_21, which also include a Language folder with translations, do not work at all (pressing F12 does not cause any reaction).
The SoD_SP_2017_11_03 version worked, but the game still crashes during combat.
The SoD_SP_2017_11_10 version crashes even when starting the game.
The SoD_SP_2017_11_12 version does not work at all.
I tried disabling SuperPack Rus - it does not affect the operation of SoD_SP.
I have another idea: what if I disable all combat options of the plugin? I checked: the game still crashes at the beginning of the battle.
So, for now, I can use the SoD_SP_2017_11_03 (Version 1.10b_beta) version and only enable it when I need to prevent the month of plague or the week of monsters.

I suspect there might be something wrong with your complete game installation. Perhaps you could try reinstalling the game?

Perhaps, but so far there haven't been any such issues; the repack is complete, and nothing has been cut. I'll manage for now, and we'll see what happens next.

So, the new 1.13 DLL loads, but crashes in battle? The good news is that if this version loads, it means some files were missing. I can try to investigate that and maybe change some things if the specific error is located. Possibly one hook is not applying correctly on your system.

Great!

*Since HDmod has changed, SoD_SP has also needed to change. Therefore, old versions can crash with the new HDmod at various points, including in battle.

*1.10_beta: the project switched to patcher_x86.dll. So it may be that there is some difficulty connecting with patcher_x86 :( You could try this version; I added some checks to see if patcher_x86 is reached.

I could always revert back to my old patching method if this proves to be the problem; it would need several evenings of work to expand, but it would likely add compatibility.

Is anyone else having difficulty with the last version?

RoseKavalier, I copied all files from version 1.13 and SoD_SP_1.13_patcher_check.dll. Now the plugin works, but the game still crashes in battle.

The Lord of the Rings. There's a problem with this map again... I've replayed it many times, but there's no result.
Let's take a look at the save file.

Strange... I don't really have a way to tell which thing is responsible without testing each of them in turn at the moment.

I will add debug information logger to help me locate problem in future
I'm sorry it's not behaving correctly and thanks for testing :smile53:

The Lord of Ring can’t defeat the hero with the Sphere, Ignat with the Chaos Drake and Cerberuses. I understand the tactic, but after he destroys the ballista, he doesn’t attack the two Djinns, but goes for the Archons. I’ve replayed it many times, but there’s no result.
