FCOM and Race Balancing Project

[Sooty]

Hey everyone,

 

I just spent a few hours yesterday installing FCOM on a fresh Oblivion install, and everything seemed dandy. In addition to the usual FCOM stuff (that the cheatsheet asks you to build in), I also add in nGCD, Progress, COBL (without the race balacing), and finally Race Balancing Project itself.

 

So in starting a new game, I am able to get the new races from Race Balancing Project, and the abilities are as the Project says they will be. However, when I get to choose the Birthsigns, I realize they have not been updated.

 

I.e. RBP is supposed to give, for example,

Tower

Advantages: Small Magicka Bonus, Reflect Damage 1, Reflect Spell 20

Disadvantages: Weakness to Disease 25

Lesser Power: Open hard lock on target, drain sneak 10, drain strength 10, fire damage 2, stunted magicka for 30 sec on self (costs 100 Magicka)

 

But it doesn't. The descriptions for these birthsigns didn't reflect the above changes, and when I picked them, they didn't give me anything new either. For example, the Tower ability continues to give me only an Open average lock.

 

Is there some sort of unintended conflict? Below is the list of mods that I've implemented as BOSS has helped to log (I'm activating everything that's listed, and I did not do any manual re-ordering).

Hi,

It could be something in your bashed patch. If you're including race information when you rebuild your bashed patch, it will overwrite changes you're making. I ran into that problem. I made some changes to a race and they didn't show up until I rebuilt my bashed patch. I've never used the race rebalancing mod but it says that it's fully compatible with fcom and ngcd. I would think that it has to be the bashed patch because other than streamline, that's the only thing that's loaded after it. Try wrye bash and check what you're building into the bashed patch.

 

Hope that helps.
