More head banging on my end here tonight. The tlk editor I normally use, -TLK Edit - no longer opens many of the 2da files in the CEP haks. The reason is that the CEP has included two new columns; "CEP_Version" and "Creator SourceURL", that are not completely filled out. For my usual editors to work, every collumn requires either an entry or a null value (****). Lacking entries they won't allow me to open and easilly edit the 2das. I've had to resort to using a text editor instead, which while it does work becomes mind numbingly tedious and makes it that much harder to merge the CEP with other resources.
Further more, most of the info in these two new collumns is either redundant or invalid. most of the entries I've looked at already contain the creator's name in the appearance name itself and the links provided point mostly to the long dead NWN Vault on IGN. Could we just eliminate these two collumns in future updates? Please. I think it is great that effort to credit contributors is being made, I just think that we could do so with an extra document in the Docs folder or credits posted on the CEP Forums and Wiki Pages instead. That or just add null values in collumns lacking entries so we can edit them as we always have.
thanks.
