Vasculio Question

Okay! I like vampires!

Anyway... I added him to my party using the console cheats. But i made sure that the key wasn't on him when i added him.

My question is... if anyone can figure it out!

Why does the game crash when Vasculio starts saying "Back to the Pits" or some other famous line? I know he likes to says this from time to time in battle.

Is it the dialog itself that cause this?

Ps

In order to give the sprite of vasculio his portrait. Just save the portrait of him and paste it over the Order Serpent portrait using U7wizard.
I'll try this again and confirm later on.

What happens to the Order Serpent you ask! He has an invisble one.

I don't know what the trigger is, but talking to him outside of his proper sequence (such as in the hall of the dead in the original) also caused a crash. Best advice is: Don't do that. ;)

If you like to have "vampires" in your party, why not change the shape of the Avatar (or any other party members) to that of Vasculio with Exult Studio?

But don't forget using the ritual bloodletting device and feeding your party with buckets full of blood every so often.

Your other option is to decompile and examine Vasculio's UseCode.

Semi-mystry to me as well since i've yet to see one which can decompile into anything other than assembly. :s

Least we can make new usecode though. B-)

I stop using Vasculio after i made this post! He does the quotes that crash the game too often in Exult. But i like the fact that he had a paper doll, despite the fact that it was of the white female avatar.

I notice that the current Exult has improve ALOT!. The mouse especially. I'm also glad i can finally add npc's to my party.

Does somebody have a savegame from which one of those crashes is easily reproducable?

I took a look and it doesn't seem to be a crash that happens; from my experiments (and from what I read in Vasculio's usecode -- as well as the usecode for vampires), what happens is that Vasculio sets the Avatar's DONT_MOVE flag and leaves at that. This is done by the 'vampire' usecode in Vasculio's case only -- but whenever the function is called, and for whatever reason. Be will bark "Ahhh, a victim...", followed by "Back to the pit!" and that is it.

It could be chalked up to a usecode bug; it is, in fact, a great example of what happens when you try to use a character for something it wasn't intended :-)

Yes Vasculio is sometime a Pain in the A$$ when you combat him to slowly, he freeze you on place (better not be in god mode in that case)
