Hi Leonardo:
I was very sorry to hear about your misfortune with your computer and the other problems with mod authors not fully testing their mods and using what appears to be non standard methods to create their mods.
I have some information about computers and Windows 7 PRO 64 bit. I you are aware of this, please forgive me for repeating the information. I bought two DELL Latitude 5580 laptops. One for me and one for my step-daughter. They come with Windows 7 PRO 64 bit and 250 GB SSD. Even though Windows 7 were no longer being sold commercially , Dell and others were selling them to businesses which still use them. This may be no longer true. Another option, which is expensive, is to buy an iMAC and install Windows 7 on it. I did this and I works well. Both these options are expensive. But used computers can often be found at discounted prices.
My versions of Windows 7 PRO 64 bit are old. I again had problems with one computer crashing all the time when installing Microsoft updates. Also had problems with installing megamod games which installed on another computer. I called Microsoft. Microsoft will still help with Windows 7 PRO 64 bit problems for a few more months. The number is 1-800-642-7676 in the USA. After checking out my computer, Microsoft sent me an updated Windows 7 PRO 64 bit file. I was not an official Windows 7 file with it's own key but just the file. I copied it to a DL DVD and installed it with the key from my old Windows 7. The results were surprising. I no longer had to install the 300+ updates. It only takes about 30 updates. I assume the remainder updates are either already installed or Windows 7 was rewritten to included the fixes. I have not installed BG1 and BG2 yet. Hope to get that done next week. I will post results then. I have a URL for that file, but I cannot open it.
I too have had Kaspersky antivirus problems. Windows Defender came with Windows 7. I switched to Microsoft Security Essentials. When MSE installs, it turns off Windows Defender and maybe other AVs so they can not be a problem. Also, it is easy to turn MSE on and off. I keep it off when I am trying to make and play a megamod game. I do not know how good MSE is. I use CCleaner (the old Crap Cleaner) because I read some strong positive comments about it and you can save the registry changes it make. I have not had a problem with the registry since I used it and it seems to do a good job cleaning up my registries.
I am very limited in writing and/or correcting mods. But I would like to help you in any way I can. If there is some help you need with editing or testing mods, I have lots of spare time. Just let me know.
For what it is worth. I did try WeiDU 244 and WeiDU 246 on some earlier test games. The tests were identical and limited, but I found no difference in the partial games.
Thanks for all the effort you have put into BiG World Project. I have spent months playing previous megamod games with great enjoyment. With BWP v18.1.2, I am having lots of trouble. I think I found some mistakes I had made, mainly by not paying more attention to your instructions. So I am hoping to finish the game I started with a little bit of help using cheats to work around the errors and poor mod writing.
Thanks again for all your efforts,
TOM
