Although I'd also guess that this is a leftover from an unclean uninstall.
#575675 Trouble with Big World Installation
Posted by dabus on 26 February 2015 - 12:26 PM in Mega Mod Help
And I didn't try to pick on you or read the thing because I don't know what would be in there by default currently and I just read a few things so I came up with the question.
Well, I read BP + Spellpack are buggy and likely cause issues with spiderwebs -- likely.
I also read the BP + statagems may cause a few enemies to stand around doing nothing.
People may had different experiences, but I guess that shrinking ones selection might help prevent errors (just because of maths / possibility) and a working "smaller" environment may be better to start from than a bigger that has a few issues.

Right-click that 3KB batch-file and select edit.
Window pops up.
Copy/paste the bold line into the second line so your first three lines looks like this:
@echo off
cd /D "C:\BGII - SoA"
SET IF=IF EXIST
Save and try the "right-click as Admin"-action again.

Search cmd, do a rightclick on the found cmd.exe and run that one as admin.
Do a cd /D "BG2-path where things are in"
Then start the batch by typing in "BiG World Install.bat"
Or edit the BiG World Install.bat and insert a line with the cd /D "BG2-path where things are in" at the top.

I remember 2 quirks the last time I checked a config-tool for Alien. So reinstalls might happen in certain conditions. Not saying its still in there, so the compressed log would be fine

The selection above has a whopping 1050 lines/components... For me, that would be too much.
Is there any consensus what would be a good, better, very good mod? I mean, I often see someone picking standard and the first thing another one says is: Oh my god, that's standard? No way...
I don't know if you need expert/the buggy selection of if you could just throw in something else. You could still select the buggy stuff by going through the stuff yourself if you want to.
Or do you think we should remove those categories and stick with groups that are in the BWS-menu like Adult/Fun/Unsuited and expand those?
Or expand the tree with the BG1 NPC, BG2 quests and other branches with new ones that go more into detail? Like slitting tweaks into something to alter micromanagement, money, npc management, magic, ...
Just asking around for a bit of input from the community, I don't have any clue about quality/content but that topic somehow bothers me.
Any volunteers that want to contribute if you'd like to have something changed to help out Alien and Quiet? I don't want to raise the workload for those guys.

#581520 The 'official' BWP Fixpack thread
Posted by dabus on 15 October 2015 - 10:56 AM in Mega Mod Help
Coincidentally, this part caught my attention:CA_AddDown=http://www.arcanecoast.ru/download/BWFixpack_aurora_fix.7z CA_AddSave=BWFixpack_aurora_fix.7z CA_AddSize=1259 CA_AddTest=BiG World Fixpack\aurora\t-kobold.tpa.patch:-Is there a fix to BWP Fixpack on Arcanecoast? If so, how comes it wasn't incorporated into, ugh, Fixpack itself?
Just for the record:
CA_ means that this is only used when building the mod.ini for the config-folder CA, which contains the BWS files for Classic Adventures.
You can also find other examples like stuff that's used for IWD1 only if you look into the global 1pp-file.
If you look into the BWP's mod.ini, you won't find the CA_lines. If you configure CA and check the mod.ini, you'll find.
AddDown=http://www.arcanecoast.ru/download/BWFixpack_aurora_fix.7z AddSave=BWFixpack_aurora_fix.7z AddSize=1259 AddTest=BiG World Fixpack\aurora\t-kobold.tpa.patch:-
Those are very likely lines that were in the games mod.inis before we merged them into the global ini-files.
Maybe there are some more of these leftovers.

In this case, move the files from inside the generalized_biffing-master-folder into the BG2-folder.
So it looks like BG2-folder \ generalized_biffing \ tra + generalized_biffing.tp2.
Restart and resume the install or just push the button p.

When the extraction of the archives is done, the program should recognize the missing pieces and continue with the installation. If that's not the case, please heed the following:
You can close and restart this test as many times as you like.
The files have to unpacked in that manner, that a setup (a WeiDU-executable) can be found in the BG2-folder. If it is located in a sub-folder, move its content from the sub-folder into the BG2-folder.
There can be archives in an archive. Look if you have to extract another file.

#577795 Questions About Adjusting My BWS Install

2) There is no option to only edit the font-size in the selection screen. The size is set per default for all text-items and almost no item has it changed afterwards.
So you could try to open Big World Setup\Includes\11_GUI.au3 and replace the 8 in GUISetFont(8, 400, 0, 'MS Sans Serif') line 11 with something bigger.
No guarantee that it will fit the space that is available since there's no calculation for that in the program.
When creating something like a button, you have some amount of pixels (100x20). Then you have your text that has to fit in that space and we tested if it fits when the texts were translations/available.
If your selected font is to big, it will be "leaving" the buttons assigned space / 100 pixels and be cut.
Maybe it would be easier to use a "magnifier"-program or lower the resolution of your monitor.

#575201 Okey dokey! Much less confused...
Posted by dabus on 04 February 2015 - 02:09 AM in Mega Mod Help
You have to choode between new nej 68/691, new ts or old nej2/ts-bp, which can be installed together. So the preferred "splits" the conflicting parts. So you could also try 691 and ts. There may be other conflicts, and you'll see those graphically/with colors, which may make things clearer.
And this has nothing to do with the BP AI / tactics / encounter mod.

#576422 Multiple copys of BG1EE and/or BG2EE : what is to be done ?
Posted by dabus on 03 April 2015 - 12:45 PM in Mega Mod Help
If you add 1 or 2 words per line, you could tell someone what he has to do in basic/easy sentences. Move a to b. Yeah, very basic but you'd understand.
He could take that from above as a basic.
This should be a simple way to toggle between the games.
@echo off Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Desktop\BG2EE.lnk" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition\Desktop.lnk" If Exist "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Save 2" ( Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Save 1" Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Save 2" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition" ) Else ( Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Save 2" Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Save 1" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition" ) Move "C:\Users\Fouinto\Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition\Desktop.lnk" "C:\Users\Fouinto\Desktop\BG2EE.lnk"
Idea would be to have a link on your desktop that points to your current game.
The link will be put into the save-dir.
If Save 1 exists, the current game has to be moved to Save 2.
And then Save 1 becomes active and the link gets moved onto the desktop.

If they fit others and they don't have issues, I'd suggest you just use 7zip to unpack those files,
