It's been awhile since I've said anything on this topic. But I'll lay out quickly how Fable handles DLC checks.

This is the Traitor's Keep quest script. The DLC is started by speaking to a steward in the castle which then starts the castle assassion cutscene.
qc190_castleassassin.lua

Here is the notable output that checks for DLC purchsed
The interesting thing is that changing one byte (IE - [XXX] test; to [XXX] if true) with a hex editor will skip the DLC checking entirely. I've done it before so I know it works.
Toggle Spoiler


If you write a custom script that you want to be reliant on DLC checks. You'd follow this same flow. Not that you would too, but whatever.
This is for reference only. Razz

Would it be safe to assume that the same check works on all the DLC, including weapons and various articles of clothing? Or is it just the quest packs?

To whomever designed the map of Mistpeak Valley to look so much more simple than the actual level is: May the Archangel Michael descend from the heavens and plant his boot squarely between your legs for your asshattery.

Got me. I just give it all to myself via script commands.

	Debug.AddAllDLC2Items()

Yep. They should all show up in guild hall once you unlock it.
I'm not sure when they would unlock under normal circumstances.

That newgame lua I posted basically starts you as a male, with the main game completed and good alignment. It made it easier to test quest changes obviously. With games for windows live being removed in the future I'm curious how the DLC stuff is going to be handled in retail version(Steam).

Huh. So what would I have to remove/change from that to have it just start a normal new game with the DLC available?

Well the quickest way would be to not use that newgame script (It's just for testing~!), and instead use the script activation hacks listed in the old forum.

Then you just need to plug in the debug unlocks and you are good to go.

So... Does the old forum even exist, then? Because otherwise I won't be able to find what you're talking about. :/

Alright, final question. What specifically should I change about the byte of data in order to skip the DLC check? Should I just change the number for the test byte to one that doesn't exist yet in the listings? Or is there something else I need to do?

It's actually a pretty easy change once you figure out which statement to do.

The first column is the offset. The second is the data.

38D0  01000002           [076] test           1       0    ; to [78] if true

38E4  01040110           [081] self           1   0   260  ; "SetState"
38E8  031E0032           [082] loadk          3   30       ; "BEGIN_QUEST_INTERACT_DLC"
38EC  01010604           [083] call_i         1   3   1

38F8  031F0032           [086] loadk          3   31       ; "BEGIN_QUEST_INTERACT_BOUGHT_DLC"
38FC  01010604           [087] call_i         1   3   1  
3900  00CDFF38           [088] jmp            -50          ; to [39]
3904  01040110           [089] self           1   0   260  ; "SetState"
3908  03200032           [090] loadk          3   32       ; "OFFER_DLC_PURCHASE_CUTSCENE"
390C  01010604           [091] call_i         1   3   1


You'd open it up in a hex editor and change, say, offset 0x38D0 to 01010002. You'd wind up with this if you disassembled it again:
38D0  01010002           [076] test           1       1    ; to [78] if false


Which completely reverses that statement. This is some decently high level hacking here. I don't condone doing it accept as a learning experience once you've bought the DLC. Yada yada legal mumbo jumbo.

The second part is being able to repack it into a working bank. It should work if you just stick it back into the DLC bank it came from. But then you have to deal with backups and stuff. I used timeslips mod stuff and stuck it in a higher folder. I'll put that tutorial up at some point in the future if someone else doesn't do it first.

I was trying to figure out how to unlock the DLC files for Traitor's Keep using the "Paid DLC Checks" post. I was able to get everything sorted to the point of disassembling qc190_castleassassin.lua using chunkspy. Got the line the bottom post told to edit, and saved it. I need to know if I have to reassemble the .txt SpyChunk makes, or can I just rename the .txt to a .lua and call it a day.

Fable III reads plaintext LUA the same way it reads the compiled shit. You ought to be just fine in saving the text as a .lua file and calling it a day.

So I'm assuming you changed the assembly output file? It's not quite that easy. You have to use a hex editor and make the change in the compiled lua. The assembly output at least tells you the offset you need to go to though.

This was my problem, thank you. I thought you just remade the bnk's with the decompiled lua instead. Would explain why my game would screw up after reloading my save. Thanks man.

EDIT:
Another problem. Now When I get to Ravenscar keep, I cannot move. Weird.

I have used the post http://fable3mod.com/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=28&st art=0& to trick the DLC check in Traitors Keep, it worked so far, but once I get off the boat to Ravenscar Keep, my character is completely frozen. I cannot move, yet I can hold CTRL and go into first person, and look around. Any idea how to fix this / the cause of this?
I read a fix is to have someone join you in co-op, but I have no one to do this with. If anyone could help me with this, that'd be awesome. Surprised

It looks like there might be a script failure. It happens to me too. But I skipped straight the end of the game and there's all kinds of things that are borked.

Does this quest show up if you haven't purchased it? Traitor's Keep at least has an NPC that offers to sell the DLC. I've had it working before but for the life of me I can't remember what I originally did.

I know the pack is showing up because I've given myself all the content in the pack.
And I could have swore 'The Voice' shows up in your quest list no matter what?

As an aside. And to make sure everything was being loaded for myself. This opens up the path to Undertown.

Layers.DeactivateLayer("Layer_QO100_FactorySim")
Layers.DeactivateLayer("Layer_Understone_Locked")
Layers.ActivateLayer("Layer_Understone_Open")

But without activating the quest it looks like the villager simulation never starts (no shops), and of course no story and such.

Bah. So is it tied with a savegame, or just the dlc files? I don't know if I have the patience to start another game from start to finish.

It might be the way we circumvented the script. I started midway and played a couple of hours just to be sure. Still stuck. I'll probably play with the script and see if I can pinpoint where it might be causing it. Might first guess though would be that the script states aren't getting set correctly, and then you never get released from the cutscene. Someone better at lua than I am could probably write up a quick debugger.

Oh, does this happen with everyone's game by trying to bypass the dlc check? You sound like you've heard about it before.
By the way, thank you for the quick replies and the help you've been giving me. I have a very small understanding on how the DLC check worked, maybe I could find out how to fix this myself.

Another thing about the not being able to move was I couldn't return to sanctuary at all. Pressing ESC acted like it was an important cutscene (like you said) and would bring up the pause menu. I was able to go into the Game management and hit load, I was able to move in the load room, but upon returning I still could not move.

Edit: Any idea what's the event name of stopping a character from moving / allowing a character to move during a cutscene?

I don't understand why you are trying to changing something in the quest script...
is enough to change the following function in a scriptactivation.txt and rename it to .lua
function ScriptFunction.IsDLC2Premium()
	
	-- this is for debug purposes.  The only reason this will get set is if you have it in your mystartup.lua
	if DLC2ScriptsDontCareAboutThePackage then
		return true
	end

I feel kinda stupid for not thinking of overwriting that to begin with. I mean it says the function right there...

Edit:
I'm not sure that's all that needs to be done. It looks like it's still asking for purchase with just that.

QV030_ReaverMansionOwnership


Did that work for you? I've tried it and it's still not showing up?

I'm still not sure the solution is in the scriptactivation.lua

But this change should be better than messing with the DLC check state. Since it skips it.

38A0  01040110           [064] self           1   0   260  ; "SetState"
38A4  031A0032           [065] loadk          3   26       ; "DLC_CHECK"
38A8  01010604           [066] call_i         1   3   1  


38A0  01040110           [064] self           1   0   260  ; "SetState"
38A4  031E0032           [065] loadk          3   30       ; "BEGIN_QUEST_INTERACT_DLC"
38A8  01010604           [066] call_i         1   3   1


There still seems like there's a problem with not being able to move though after this function runs and then it loads the ravenscar level. It's supposed to advance gameflow at that point and load the next script.
00E4  0005000C           [049] getglobal      0   5        ; QC190_CastleAssassin
00E8  010D0078           [050] closure        1   13       ; 0 upvalues
00EC  0001261E           [051] setfield       0   19  1    ; State_END_Main


2ADB                     ** function [13] definition (level 2)

Yep, I start a new game every time via a modified newgame.lua

By non-DLC hero, do you mean without Understone and Traitor's Keep? Because that's what I'm trying to Access, the Undertown and Traitor's Keep quests while removing the xlive checks. The rest of the DLC and LE content is free and doesn't need to be circumvented. Very Happy

yes, just main game
I tried both cases, with Traitor's Keep and without it. Everything is working.
Perhaps the problem in your newgame.lua
can you show it?

Always a possibility.

I usually start at the end cutscene. But I've also started at the coronation, because the end cutscene doesn't set the bowerstone castle layer correctly. But it's mostly for testing anyway.

I could just erase the forum again and no one would be the wiser...

OK. With that it solved all my problems. I can also move at the start of ravenscar within Traitor's Keep.
Traitor's Keep doesn't show up in the quest list until you accept it. I'm still pretty sure you need to make it skip the DLC check to get past the purchase offer though.

Problem is probably in your method of starting. With my non-DLC hero it's displayed.

Not really sure what file I'm looking in for this line. Plus you're talking about the Bowerstone DLC, I need Traitor's (But reading that whole post, Keshire was able to get Traitor's keep to work... Wink
I'm sorry if I'm a moron, I'm going to look around for whatever line you mean Confused

I feel really dumb Embarrassed .
Do you mean Vanilla questscriptactivation or Traitor's keep's one?

Edit: Many thanks! That did it! It even unstuck my character's save at Ravenscar, and the cutscene picked right up! Thanks a bunch man!
Edit 2: Though I have another problem Embarrassed Reading about, you get the soldier outfit for free, as a gift almost immediatly, yet I have not gotten this. Any idea how to get it? Confused Same goes for the clockwork dog.

What I'm mostly concerned about is this part:
38D8  011D0000           [078] getfield       1   0   29   ; BeenThroughDLCPurchasing

38F4  01040110           [085] self           1   0   260  ; "SetState"
38F8  031F0032           [086] loadk          3   31       ; "BEGIN_QUEST_INTERACT_BOUGHT_DLC"
38FC  01010604           [087] call_i         1   3   1


I'd rather skip it entirely just to make sure we cover all our bases.

I thought it was something you picked up along the way during the quest? Like in a chest or something?

That's what I thought too, which is why I ignored the fact that I didn't get it. I like to collect sets in this game, and the only I'm missing at the moment is that, so I checked on the wiki. It says you get it straight away from the dlc loading (which I didn't). Plus, I already beat Traitor's Keep Embarrassed.
