Gold Weight Bug...
      #2587497 - 05/16/04 04:17 AM

Has anyone heard of a fix created to deal with the gold weight bug? If you haven't heard about the bug, I'll try to explain it. If you have a mod that gives each gold piece a weight value, and you drop/remove from inventory a large amount of gold, your encumbrance get messed up. I experienced this using the gold weight mod included w/ Indybank. It was such a problem I stoppped using the bank mod. I think it would be more realistic if you couldn't carry 1.2M GP around all the time. If there is a fix to this, please let me know. Thanks

Same thing happened to me with this mod, & if this bug was fixed I know this one would become a use all the time mod 4 me. But needless to say right now its just wasting space on my hd. Just like Dogmeats Pak Guar. Love that mod, but everytime I add a new mod the guar dissapears and I have to unload the mod, and then reload it..then rebuy him. It's a total pain, but one I've learned to deal with. I really wish I could find out what the problem there was..me or the actual mod? Last time it happened I lost two days worth of loot. And it left me with the choice of reloading an old save where I had half of the loot..or doing the unloading/reloading mod way. I went with the old save..and found out I had to unload the mod anyway. It sucked big ones....but hey until we all learn how to mod..we can't really fully expect to have everything the way we want it.

My two cents,
Main

Which version of the Indy Bank do you have? Kir updated Indestructible's Indy Bank and methinks it works a lot better. It contains it's own files for gold weight fix and alt gold textures, not to mention offers letter of credit so you can carry them around instead of that 1.2 million gold pieces. Dunno if that's the sort of thing you're looking for or if it's the one you already have and is giving you problems. Guess I'm lucky to have not experienced. Here's the link though:

I have the most recent version, but I have the problem described. V2.3 was the first version I tried, so I don't think I have old files causing the problem.
BTW... Telosphoros, GREAT list of mods you posted in response to the "I'm back" thread. I was going through that list when I was reminded about the bank mod (and the problem). The included links to the sites to get them was brilliant. A real time saver!

Hmmm.... I had downloaded just the gold weight mod. Had nothing to do with Indy Bank..though come to think about it..that is a mod I don't have. But man do I wanna go thru the whole process of losing my pak guar again...that will take some pondering.

I have the same problem as well. Except for me, I seem to have 0 weight, even if im carrying something like Stendarr's hammer. This is a big advantage/disadvantage as I can now carry 1000 swords and not be penalised. And yes, the IndyBank mod is responsible for this.

i think there is a way to fix this. there is i think 4 different gold items-- 1,5,25,100. so if u want the gold to weight .01 then to fix the bug u would set the weight or gold_1 to .01, gold_5 to .05, gold_25 to .25, and gold_100 to 1.0. im not sure if that will fix it but it seems like that is the way to fix it. im reinstalling morrowind right now but ill check to c if this works later. i think i did it before and id fixed the problem.

lol I've encountered partly the same thing. For me after awhile my weight starts to creep up..but after I have alot of items already in my inventory. Though it seems to come and go..or so I've noticed.

It's not the indybank 2.3 that is the problem. If I don't use the included goldweight.esp, the gold has no weight, and my encumbrance is unaffected.

I think there is one who may be able to fix it. Tundro Walker created the Lilicor mod (an excellent mod btw). In ver. 4.1 he scripted a fix to a similar problem when Lil was removed from your inventory by summoning the phantom. if a similar script could be attached to each gold piece, it may fix the problem. I cannot script my way out of a wet paper bag, so I'm out. But if someone is good at scripting, they could look at the script in question and apply it to the gold weight.

I was just reading the description for the sword earlier when I posted the link for someone else and had similar thoughts. Like you though, I can't script my way out of a wet paperbag with instructions and a knife... Glad you liked the list
