It's working in my install. What's the date of dark.gam?
31/05/2018 but I have just re-installed with Bullet DromEd, would that have installed a new dark.gam?

I think, we should upload and compare the gamesys
Haha.....This is where I may have made an error. You asked me to copy my gamesys from my new install into my old install, but the only gamesys I had in my new install was gamesys.dml, which is what I copied into my old install. But you have uploaded to mediafire a DarkGams.zip. This has confused me a little, which file from my new install should I copy and test the guards with, DarkGams.zip, or gamesys folder that I do not appear to have in either install.:confused:

There are 2 versions of dark.gam (the original gamesys) in the zip. They are renamed (good means it's working for me). The good one comes with TP/T2fix
The bad one is from my old install, it's newer than the good one.
Rename the 2 gamesys to dark.gam and test it please.
Then upload your own gamesys (dark.gam) whithout patching it with TP/T2fix first. I want them all to compare it.

It's the Bad dark.gam that's the problem, but I can't upload my original dark.gam as I patched it with T2Fix only half an hour ago, but I think we can be reliably certain that I had a bad dark.gam.

Yes. So you have dark.gam good in your install. Please copy the install folder and apply Bullet DromEd for testing. With the good gam, of course (rename it to dark.gam)
I want to be sure that the gamesys is the culprit.

Confirmed. Repatched with Bullet Dromed, used good dark.gam and all is good. :D
Are you going to include a good dark.gam in Bullet from now on? It won't solve the problem for everyone but it may help a little.

not a good idea, as the T2Fix overhauled gam will get overwritten, causing all sorts of problems.
avoid the trap of trying to cater to people who use broken resources with whatever package you are putting together. "fix your broken stuff first, then my stuff will work properly" should be the answer, always.
Unna Oertdottir on 25/3/2019 at 17:42
Good to know. Yes I'll include the good gamesys in Bullet Dromed to be sure. Right now.
I loaded some stripped OMs in DromEd with the bad gamesys and the biggest folder DromEd was the "missing" one again. Never realized this. The guards in Water Arrow In the Fire have some unusual metaproperties, that's why the bad gamesys has so much impact.
@voodoo: Nobody us using Bullet Dromed instead of T2fix. This is not a replacement for T2fix or TP, as I already wrote.
voodoo47 on 25/3/2019 at 17:57
yeah, but if you drop the package into a T2Fixed install, you'll overwrite the gamesys (unless I'm missing something completely).
Unna Oertdottir on 25/3/2019 at 18:01
Bullet DromEd didn't have a gamesys included (as mentioned) . But now it has the same gamesys as T2fix.
voodoo47 on 25/3/2019 at 18:13
still not a good idea - you will have to keep it up to date each time the T2Fix gamesys gets updated. you are basically setting things up to cause more problems in the future just to maybe fix some problems for users with broken installs now - but not all, as those who have the outdated gamesys will also have outdated scripts and missing crf content. so you've already lost this battle before it even began - trust me, leave the patching up part to T2Fix.
