#426943 Can't install Gibberlings3's BG2 Tweak

Posted by neostalker on 25 November 2008 - 11:29 AM in IE Help

I have made a full install of Baldur's Gate 2+ToB and patched them. Then I've installed Ascension, Tactics and Valen. Now, when I try to install BG2 Tweaks by gibberlings3, I get two regular prompts asking me for administrator password. Then I get a Windows NT-style prompt asking me for username and password, and when I type it in I get the message: "Windows cannot find the file [yada yada] BG2_Tweaks-v6.exe"

Running Vista 32-bit.

Anyone knows how to solve this?
Thanks.



#426902 Want to start modding, some initial help?

Tell me, do I lack too much experience to mod IE, and if not where should I start?

No, I don't even have that, and I can mod few things... The starting point is always the tutorials. If you want to do NPCs, this is the one I used. This might help also with dialogs. And quests are just dialogs that use variables etc.

WeiDU just installs the mods so you don't need to change the games own dialog etc. files with every time and with every mod by hand.


Thanks for your answer, those tutorials seem to cover most of it.

So WeiDU doesn't make making mods easier, but rather prevents hard-to-reverse conflicts by not changing the actual game files?
But I've read that all WeiDU-mods are compatible with each other, but maybe I read wrong and there is still a risk for conflict, just that it's easier to fix?

So, I've been a fan of the IE games since Baldur's Gate.
After playing the games again after many years, with mods, I figured I too would like to make some mods. Mostly I would like to add new quests, dialogues and NPC's.
I've heard that with WeiDU it has become easier to mod the IE games.

I have no prior experience from modding, and only know a bit C++ from some courses I took 2 years ago.
Tell me, do I lack too much experience to mod IE, and if not where should I start?

Thanks
