Single signs: if you wish to have only ard then you can just delete everything except the ard file in the spells folder.
Hey, the mod doesn't seem to work on current version of NextGen. The error I get is similar as what others have said below: Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(269): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here. Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(661): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here. Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(835): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here. Error [content0]game\gameplay\items\spells\signentity.ws(624): Could not find function 'GetBurnEffectPlayed' Warning [content0]engine\environment.ws(30): Global native function 'EnableDebugOverlayFilter' was not exported from C++ code. Warning [content0]engine\environment.ws(32): Global native function 'EnableDebugPostProcess' was not exported from C++ code. Warning [content0]engine\showflags.ws(11): Global native function 'DebugSetEShowFlag' was not exported from C++ code.
Is there any plans to make this mod compatible with NextGen anytime soon? I'd love to have this mod in my fresh playthrough (been 3 years)
Every time I install it says Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(269): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here. Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(661): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here. Error [content0]game\projectile\advancedprojectile.ws(835): Cannot access protected property 'signEntity' in class 'W3SignProjectile' here.

Warning [content0]engine\showflags.ws(11): Global native function 'DebugSetEShowFlag' was not exported from C++ code.
PS I've simply converted the mod to the new script base without changing anything, but I have to say there are several very strange parts of the code that do nothing except wasting game resources.
FYI - I compared burningEffect.ws in the original mod with that in 1.31, and there are no differences, other than a load of comments, so there is no point in it. I guess the original author made changes to this file in the past (or planned to in the future), but wghost81 realised there was no need for it in its current state.
Ghost Mode is the first and only mod I have installed. Then tried to install this modImprovedSignEffects but it gets a bunch of conflicts with the igniSigneffects. Not sure how to resolve the conflicts in script merger
Just wanna report that this mod has stopped working with the newest "Next-Gen" update.
Had to disable/remove it from mods folder, or game would not boot.
EDIT: Here's the full error I was getting, maybe, it somehow will help

Having trouble getting this to run with "FCR3". There were A LOT of conflicts. Did my best with the script merger, never really sure what line to choose (B or C) when doing the merge, so I always chose the line that was FCR3.
After I finished merging all conflicts, I got this error message when trying to run the game: Error [mod0000_mergedfiles]game\gameplay\projectile\signs\signprojectiles.ws(135): I dont know any 'instaKill'
Warning [content0]engine\environment.ws(30): Global native function 'EnableDebugOverlayFilter' was not exported from C++ code.

After uninstalling "Improved Sign Effects" the game runs fine. But I would love to have "Improved Sign Effects" It is supposed to be purely a visual mod so I'm surprised I'm getting so many errors
Not sure if you see this, but i successfully manually merged this mod together with FCR3 ( i wasnt able to test the signs ingame yet as im still in Kaer Morhen tutorial, but the compiling, etc. worked without problems.) I could tell you how i did it, if you still care.
When you merge the files with Script Merger, do the following:
In [igniEntity.ws] : You generally want to take FCR3 lines here, except for the lines of code that (I believe) handle the intensity of the effects: Starting at... - PlayEffect( effects[fireMode].upgradedThrowEffect ); ... ImprovedSignEffects mod adds new lines. (Any line that starts with "PlayEffect"). You take those lines from the Sign mod and add them together with your FCR3 mod. A bit further down... - collisionFxTemplate = (CEntityTemplate)LoadResource("gameplay\sign\igni_channeling_collision_fx"); and - rangeFxTemplate = (CEntityTemplate)LoadResource("gameplay\sign\igni_channeling_range_fx"); ... take these lines from the Sign Mod as well.
Anything else (99% comments) you do not have to merge from the Sign Mod. There is one small change to a timer when particles will disappear, that he also made, but its not necessary. ( Its the AddTimer('RangeFXTimedOutDestroy', 0.15, , , , true); - line, if you want the Sign Mod value, FCR3 has 0.10, Sign Mod has 0.15)
in [signProjectile.ws] : Take nothing from ImprovedSignEffects mod. Choose FCR3 lines in all cases.
in [signProjectiles.ws] : This is the file that will cause issues if you auto-merge, or even manually merge without knowing what you are doing. ImprovedSignEffects mod makes some gamplay changes here that interfere with FCR3 changes, doubling up on some mechanics or worse preventing FCR3 code from working properly. So in short - aside from a FEW lines, you only want to take FCR3 lines here again. The exceptions are : Additional Lines starting with : action.SetHitEffect, such as "action.SetHitEffect('', false, true);" - you take from the Signs Mod. There is a total of 6 of these lines. Take those, but nothing else, no comments, no other code change. ---- After that you should have no problems compiling and you will see igni improved in-game (from what i could tell, not 100% sure on aard, i think its also improved but I never saw the vanilla version). The signs work as expected as well mechanically (not tested the alternate versions), so no worries there.
Can confirm that the fixes StrictlyGrumps provided (from inzanity99, I believe) have merged correctly with my FCR3 (Nitpicker's version, with BiA Compatibility Patch installed), tho I counted 7 lines with "action.SetHitEffect" while merging [signProjectiles.ws] in Kdiff. Endorsed the original mod, too!

I am trying to play the game at 4k and is running beautifully smooth but it drops performance when Igni is used ;( I wish I knew what to alter.

Just select C for all conflicts.
oh god, it works
Had to disable/remove it from mods folder, or game would not boot.

I know you sayed you stoped modding this Game, but please. The Original Effects dont do justice.
Or is some other Modder whilling to update this beauty?
EDIT: Ok i see lacmac made an update. :D
After I finished merging all conflicts, I got this error message when trying to run the game:
Error [mod0000_mergedfiles]game\gameplay\projectile\signs\signprojectiles.ws(135): I dont know any 'instaKill'

After uninstalling "Improved Sign Effects" the game runs fine. But I would love to have "Improved Sign Effects" It is supposed to be purely a visual mod so I'm surprised I'm getting so many errors
I could tell you how i did it, if you still care.
So the files that have conflicts between FCR3 and ImprovedSignEffects are:
...\content\content0\scripts\game\gameplay\items\spells\igniEntity.ws
...\content\content0\scripts\game\gameplay\projectile\signs\signProjectile.ws
...\content\content0\scripts\game\gameplay\projectile\signs\signProjectiles.ws
When you merge the files with Script Merger, do the following:
In [igniEntity.ws] :
You generally want to take FCR3 lines here, except for the lines of code that (I believe) handle the intensity of the effects:
Starting at...
- PlayEffect( effects[fireMode].upgradedThrowEffect );
... ImprovedSignEffects mod adds new lines. (Any line that starts with "PlayEffect"). You take those lines from the Sign mod and add them together with your FCR3 mod.
A bit further down...
- collisionFxTemplate = (CEntityTemplate)LoadResource("gameplay\sign\igni_channeling_collision_fx");
and
- rangeFxTemplate = (CEntityTemplate)LoadResource("gameplay\sign\igni_channeling_range_fx");
... take these lines from the Sign Mod as well.
Anything else (99% comments) you do not have to merge from the Sign Mod. There is one small change to a timer when particles will disappear, that he also made, but its not necessary.
( Its the AddTimer('RangeFXTimedOutDestroy', 0.15, , , , true); - line, if you want the Sign Mod value, FCR3 has 0.10, Sign Mod has 0.15)
in [signProjectile.ws] :
Take nothing from ImprovedSignEffects mod. Choose FCR3 lines in all cases.
in [signProjectiles.ws] :
This is the file that will cause issues if you auto-merge, or even manually merge without knowing what you are doing. ImprovedSignEffects mod makes some gamplay changes here that interfere with FCR3 changes, doubling up on some mechanics or worse preventing FCR3 code from working properly.
So in short - aside from a FEW lines, you only want to take FCR3 lines here again.
The exceptions are :
Additional Lines starting with : action.SetHitEffect, such as "action.SetHitEffect('', false, true);" - you take from the Signs Mod.
There is a total of 6 of these lines. Take those, but nothing else, no comments, no other code change.
----
After that you should have no problems compiling and you will see igni improved in-game (from what i could tell, not 100% sure on aard, i think its also improved but I never saw the vanilla version).
The signs work as expected as well mechanically (not tested the alternate versions), so no worries there.
I really like this mod but FCR3 limits this mod
thanks
