Got to where it stopped and asked me to launch the game, make a character and a save. I did. But again the UI was messed up and I couldn't see the continue button. So restore from a backup of the directory and try once again. This time the continue button showed up, but the installer/script just closed down or crashed as soon as I hit continue. From the Weidu log, it certainly wasn't finished. I'm doing an install with about 70 mods (just about everything there is) and Weidu had only installed 27 before shutting down with no obvious error in the log.

Now I get to restore the backup of the directory and try once more.

Just to make sure, what you posted was the weidu.log from the EET part that is installed to BGEE prior to EET doing its job. That one looks fine and finished. What is in your BG2EE weidu.log?

A couple kits from Might and Guile didn't install.

Add Multiclass Kits (Might and Guile) was not installed due to errors.

 

Sword Coast Stratagems had a bunch of AI patch failures. 32 failures like these:

 

Failed to apply general-AI patch to CB510BRD (error message Failure("Unable to parse %RESREF_D5_BASP3_KIT_EFFECTS_REMOVE%"))

 

SCS had a lot of other failures (TONS) including a bunch of out of memory errors. I have 32 GB of RAM on my desktop, but I was doing some heavy Photoshop work while letting this run in the background. Next time I'll run it over night.

 

Enhanced Edition Trilogy End - I wonder if some other mod broke this, and EET-End just caught it while parsing the file.

 

[action list near line 472, column 2 of IMOENP_.DLG] PARSE WARNING at line 473 column 1-38

syntax error

WARNING: cannot verify action ~SetGlobal("KickedOut","LOCALS",0)

ActionOverride("IMOEN2",ActionOverride("IMOEN2",JoinParty()))

I just need to figure out what mods/components to take out before I attempt this again.

 

Might and Guile, as laid out in a Maximum install, installs and functions in EET properly to the best of my experience (of which I've had a bunch in the last few days), so it's almost certainly an incompatibility with another non-standard option you selected.

 

SCS AI component is a royal pain in the ass out-of-game and in-game both. I've run into plenty of problems installing that portion of it over the years, and it generally makes combat miserable especially on higher difficulty / against magical enemies. I avoid it whenever possible, and use only the SCS Party AI portion.

 

EET-End's obviously encountering a problem with another mod, aye - as it's working fine in the selection I gave you earlier. 

The errors you get in Sandrah are obviously the same as the earlier error in Might and Guile because it missed the QD_MCF04.spl.  It seems Sandrah tries to run the ACTION_IF (NOT FILE_EXISTS_IN_GAME ~qd_multi_spls.qd~) THEN BEGIN block from qd_multiclass.tpa again although this somehow was already unsuccessfully done by M+G. That earlier failure was most likely left something that now makes Sandrah fail as well.

I'm out of the loop. I haven't messed with a BGT/BWP install in years. I'd like to give it another go with BG:EE/SOD/BG2:EE. Is it possible to go BGT/BWP with the enhanced versions?

If so, what guide should I follow?

 

I'm interested in trying out most of the available mods to see everything the community has to offer, primarily focused on bugfixes and new content (quests, areas, dialogue).

The equivalent to BGT in the EE world is EET

Install is supported by BWS.

Are you trying to run BWS from the download archive without unpacking it first?

 

No, it's fully unpacked. As long as I have no User.ini file, it works fine, but once it's built one I get that error when loading BWS when it's doing its check at the beginning.

Rumor has it that a patch for baldur's gate is on the horizon. I've did a fresh install using bws and it seems sandrah mods seem to have problems being installed in the latest installation.

Which problems? To helo you there is more detail needed, e.g what error message do you get?

And there is no need to patch anything because
- BWS always downloads the latest Weidu version
- the auto-update function in Weidu automatically upgrades all setup Weidu executables for all mods in your game to the latest version
- if you do not use BWS, all mods will use the highest version of Weidu contained in the game, either included in any of the mods or downloaded by yourself from the link above.
 

That is fantastic news that BWS grabs the latest Weidu and uses that for all the mod installers. However, if that is a traditional 32-bit executable, it still can't use more than 2 GB of RAM and may run into the "Out of Memory Errors".

This could be fixed by

1. The Weidu maintainer(s) pre-patching their version to use more RAM
2. The Weidu maintainer(s) releasing a 64-bit version that has no RAM restrictions at all
3. BWS applying a 4 GB patch such as this one to Weidu before replacing all the installers (which can be run from a command line/script) http://www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php

If none of those solutions are likely to occur, I'm curious if it would be possible to pause BWS to where I can apply said 4 GB patch to the Weidu.exe myself before it uses that to replace all the installers.

You can go here http://forums.pocket...board,44.0.html and make a proposal/request.

Hi, according to mine upload of weidu, i noticed few odd things. 1) Shar-Teel cannot be killed with regular ways..
2) Shar-Teel initiate dialogue with Dorn, and they are at duel, but they stay at place and they cannot be clicked.

I assume this is your first meeting Shar-Teel?

She challenges your strongest male fighter for a duel - you agree - most likely that is Dorn. They start to fight. You sit back and watch. Do nothing.

When either of the two has lost some hitpoints, then Shar-Teel gives up and offers to join your party OR Dorn gives up and Shar-Teel takes 20GP from you.

No they are at mine party kinda long time, but suddenly some dialogue opens.. and also when fighting with monsters, she cant just die

Maybe you can post a savegame of the situation. Not sure what BWS has to do with it, I am not familiar with a mod that changes Dorn, so this might be original behaviour.

Hello, I have little problem with snakes of abbathor, received message at naskhel mines, talked at guy at beregost, at crossroads I observed ambush and got the diary, but rest I cant find, the guys at temple of helm in N baldurs gate disappear quickly.

Hi, thanks for detailed explanation. I will select mods manually as you suggested. 

Can you please give comment on state of quest mods, especially big mods. I read in other threads that most of them have been updated and toned for EET use. 

Does this mean that I will avoid having bunch of overpowered items in my playthrough? In this regard should I avoid any of the big mods? 

Also what about ROT (you recommend to use it with Sandrah Saga)? In BWS it is marked with red colour. Does this mean it still has bugs and I should avoid it? Appreciate your help.

The one mod that still has a number of overpowered items is Dark Horizons even if completely playable and bug free in EET. I played it several times and just leave most of the loot on the ground.

I have successfully tested all the big BG1 mods in EET, Askavar, the Vault, Bone Hill, Drizzt Saga, DSotSC. Until now I have only used the NTotSC interim version for EET and it works fine. There is a new improved version under test but I cannot comment on that one as I have not yet used it.

I have also tested and played all the big BG2 mods listed for EET( except for Fishing for Trouble) and found them improved very much in their EET version.

RoT is still red in BWS since there was no feedback yet from other players except the ones who did the conversion. It does not mean that it has bugs or problems, it just means that we do not know. We just should have some feedback from neutral players.

In BWS, all new mods enter in the red state, and the very big converted mods in this context are considered *new* due to the large amount of changes done to them.

Anyway, my personal assessment is that you can safely use all of them as you will always find support for troubleshooting in case there are any yet unknown issues with the mods. The advantage of the converted mods is that the maintainers of the new versions are still around.

well, but gullykin is empty, there was no ogres until I changed the value to 1

This means it works now?

What version you have?

 

How do I start the imoen big quest the kidnapping henning? I talked to him, brought him pelt.. he says something to imoen, but waited too long time and now i should proceed to bandit camp.

Spoiler

• Henning asks Sandrah to formally introduce him to Imoen.  Soon after leaving the shop Imoen expresses her interest in the man to Sandrah. Once you reach an out of town area, Imoen asks you to hunt for winter wolf pelts. As soon as you have one, you should revisit the shop to hand it in. After a day revisit the shop and Imoen receives a (very useful) gift from Henning. Sandrah and Imoen discuss the gift. Next time you are in a city they decide to buy a gift for Henning as well. Return once more to the shop.
•  
• The story will continue after you cleared the Nashkel mines. Report your success to Berrun. Visit the shop and find Henning missing.
•  
• if you went to bandit camp, you can no longer catch up with that quest.

 

Hi, okay i brought him pelt after naskhel mines. Thats the problem, so i cant any longer finish this quest properly.

Actually, you can bring the pelt later as well. I think you can do everything still as long as you do not go tp the bandit camp. If you have Imoen's quest, the camp will not show up after you killed the spy in Beregost, but that is cosmetic. You just need to pretend you do not see it until you found the orcs in Gullykin.

So I assume this was an intended change? Yesterday it still worked.

 

And I read that thread, but a reason for removing the classic BGT from BWS is most certainly not discussed there.

The only thing that happened there is some childish back and forth between people that prefer the classic version or the enhanced version.

The BWS requires a large update in the BGT configuration after the changes. Nobody is there to do such updates. The BGT section of BWS is not maintained for over half a year now. Any attempt to use it will result in failed installations and a lot of waste of time.

In case someone is found to bring BWS up-to-date, the BGT part can be re-activated. Currently it is better to suspend it instead of suggesting to users an impression that the functionality really exists.

The situation regarding BWS and BGT support has been reported in this thread here repeatedly. Any call for help has been left unanswered, With the latetst update of the crucial files for a BGT install, the BWS does no longer work for the *classic game*.

The EE/EET part works again after a quick and dirty fix was installed, since those games are still maintained by a different group of helpers. All of that is missing for BGT.

Sorry, but please do not blame the messenger.

Roxanne, here are the files.

Thank you for the effort.

I am sure the problem is not with Grey Clan mod but with the new version of another mod interfering in the area script.

However, I cannot prove it right now, I have the older version of that mod without any issue. Not sure what BWS can do, in case my suspicion turns out to be correct. There is further data required.

Issue stays open for the moment.

The only dependency for that component is #2000, install kit-change innate ability for single-class NPCs.

Is there a bug in the mod, or is it just that BWS is skipping it?

Neither, I would say - it may be as simple as just having selected 3000 alone and BWS not having (yet) the dependency defined, so the mod skips it by itself, which is correct behaviour.

Could be improved by BWS pointing out the dependency.

@subtledoctor

Ability for multi-class NPCs needs ability for single-class NPCs=D:npc_ee(3000):npc_ee(2000)

would this be correct?

Since, it *appears* that you know something about it Would you be so kind to tell me if there is a way to remove that ability?

Use Near Infinity to remove it. Or simply do not use the feature. It does nothing unless you hit the button.

Is it normal that the "Restored Bhaalspawn Powers by David Gaider" component of Ascension and the "Regain Bhaalpowers in ToB" component of aTweaks can be installed together, instead of being listed as alternatives?

New Ascension has separate and better Restored Bhaalspawn Powers component than Unfinished Business=C:Ascension(103):UB(19)  >>>Conflict
Ascension(103) Restored Bhaalspawn Powers does not conflict with aTweaks(202|241|218)

Unless, of course, you have to make a report about problems you have encountered in your game?

It's working now! However a problem with the Sirene NPC mod has occured. Attached below is the debug file https://drive.google...cVk0NV9PRmdDRkE

It is not really a BWS problem but try this solution.

- Pause BWS

- Start Setup-Sirene.exe in your BGEE directory

- select skip for not yet installed components and uninstall for all components that are eventually installed. Exit

- Start Setup-Sirene.exe again and install it manually

- if successfully installed, continue BWS

PS - possibly the mod uses an older version for EE Kit conversion, this fails occasionally-

So I think something is broken with the BWS tool. I have tried clean installs of both the game and the tool and the BG2EE EET install wont let me progress. I have used this tool to success the previous day and got the whole game and mods to work correctly, minus Colours of Infinity not working do to an Unix override error. Before you ask I don't have the debug files from the installs last night, I foolishly deleted everything thinking it was something on my end and I was just using the tool wrong. This afternoon when I started to try again it keeps telling me I am missing a bunch of area files from BG1EE and will not let me continue in the tool when I specify the directories. I have started the game with a clean install, made saves and so forth. The games run just fine in the none drive directory so I know I am not missing area files. At this point I don't know what to do.

Just chiming in to say that I've had the exact same issue. Was poking around in BWS last night. Started it up again today and was getting errors about BG2EE not being correct in my user config ini folder.

 

Fresh installed BGEE and BG2EE - also downloaded a second copy of BWS just to be safe. Ran it - and my BG2EE/BGEET install option doesnt appear to work properly. There's a "0" where BG2EE normally should be, and when I select the install directory for BGEE itself, I get an error that I have a whole host of missing error files.

 

Edit - side note: When I select BWS for only BGEE and not the BG2EE/EET option, it seems like it works fine.

same errors with EET

Reverted to last stable version.

Please let us know if that helped.

Hello,

 

I have installed the Tactical version of the BWS for EET with some minor tweaks (no NPC mods and some other minor things, I can go into detail if needed).

Here's the question. I am aware that some recruitable NPCs that are difficult to reach have been relocated to more convenient locations.

 

For example, Minsc, Edwin, Xzar, Montaron, Garrick, Khalid and Jaheira are all at their standard locations.

Tiax, however, is in Beregost, Eldoth is in the Coast Way.

 

I cannot find Viconia. According to a video I was she was supposed to be in the Friendly Arm Inn area, to the right of the entrance. She is not there, though.

Nor she is in Peldvale, which is her starting location.

 

Help?

Area south of Beregost, NW corner.

i) I could list all the mods that I have installed, but it would take quite a long time for you to read. Nevertheless, I can do that if someone has the patience to read it.

 

Edit: I have installed all the spells and all the kits available, included all Faith and Powers and Might and Guile components, except those that were unticked.

 

ii) I followed your advice and yes, that component is installed. So... do I have to do a full BWS reinstall to get rid of this, or can I just re-run tweaks anthology?

That weidu.log you just opened is the list of mods/components you have installed.

Post the file (not the contents, the file itself) here, and we may see.

 

https://www.sendspace.com/file/n0pbag

i) The Jaheira thing may come from the new F&P components. They were released in a new version just a day or so ago and the issue has never been reported before - but this is just a guess. I propose to ask on the F&P forum https://forums.beamd...-divine-caster- about it.

ii) I suggest you live with it. Uninstalling it is not practical and may even ruin your install. When you look at the weidu.log, you will see that in order to remove the gem component, you would need to 1) uninstall in reverse order everything in the log thereafter 2) remove gems 3) re-install the stuff from 1) in forward sequence. With all of SCS in between, there is a high chance of failure, apart from the fact that it will take many hours.

"The current status of BWS is probably known well enough by now," (...)


I don't understnad your poiint Roxanne. Is bws with no mantainer?

There is none who maintains the program (software) itself, there are only some modders who try to keep the mod configutations up-to-date best as they can, But even that is limited to EE/EET and not the old game anymore.

Thank you. That all looks fine. A few notes:

- Component 325 should be removed... but that's an oversight on our end, I need to disable it in the .tp2.

Can be removed in BWS - just for EET or for all games?

- Most/all of the individual kits require that the main component for that class be installed. E.g. components 201 through 332 require that #200 be checked as well. Not sure if there would be a visual indicator of that or what.

Such dependencies cannot be shown on the selection screen (one of those issues caused by the non-maintainable system underneath). You can make *stupid' choices and you get the feedback only when you move to the next step(menu) which will then indicate you all the mistakes you have made. The rules are defined in .ini files. You could give the user a hint in the description texts, e,g, saying in 201 blabla (requires component 200)

- I don't see component 102, the "install everything" component that most players would likely use.

That is only a matter of my screenshot, I had not expanded the little plus sign of *Select an install method* that would open the choices

ANN;101 only for IWDEE  (this is not shown to user)
MUC;Faiths_and_Powers;102;09;0111; (this is pre-selected per default)
MUC;Faiths_and_Powers;103;09;0000;
MUC;Faiths_and_Powers;105;09;0000;

Thanks for the link.

 

But I do not aim to get a multiple installation, it would be a good result to get just one installation of bws, that will unite my games to Enhanced edition trilogy.

 

Am I understanding correctly, that c:\gog games\ is not a viable location to perform a clear installation for further modding through BWS?

 

I would like to remove any traces of previous installations, to attempt to do it right this time.

The link I gave you was explaining the method of how you could point engine.lua from your copy to another target and take it from there. You just need to adjust that method to your needs.

And - you are aware of modmerge and that you need it for gog games?

There is no movie for carnival, but the Nashkel movie (and chapter change) is shown either on entering Nashkel town or the carnival, whatever happens first.
Other question - does something else happen on those rests, like some NPC talking to you or some assault or whatever type of interuption?

One thing you can try
C:SetGlobal("wm_bgt","Global",2) before you rest your party.

The problem solved itself when I rested several times in a cave in the Gnoll Stronghold, and I got the dream. Still, I think I was supposed to get it when I rested for the first time in a city inn after the start of chapter 2.

By the way, I am officially still fucked. There is a dude named Allister that prevents me from accessing the part of the stronghold when Dynaheir is hidden.
If I try to engage him, he obliterates me.

I have a level 2/2 Fighter/Mage, Imoen (lvl4), Jaheira (lvl 3/3), Khalid (lvl4) and Minsc (lvl3).
I cannot go ahead and grind some more levels, because Minsc is recruited and if I don't rescue Dynaheir reasonably sure, he will turn on me.
So looks like I'll either have to temporarily drop Minsc or restart the game

BTW, I know that this Allister dude comes from a tactical mod, but a level 9/9 Mage/Thief (I looked him up in Shadowkeeper) seems a bit too much for the Gnoll Stronghold.

http://www.baldursga...hp?topic=4832.0 and the mod is clearly marked as such in BWS as well as Rhialto. You install all this and now flood this topic with your rant!

Hello,

 

Since I have when people disappear and don't post long-term status/future and because i think that this community deserve clean and straight-to-the-point communication, I bring some news for you:

 

BWS reach it's end-of-support state from my side

 

Anyone who want's to takeover the project can contact me at alienquake(-a-)hotmail.com.

where agb1 quiet? 3 people left, nobody ask why? There must be resones! no one will update? Whyyyy?

One of the reasons whyyyyy not many qualify to maintain BWS may lie here:

Supported Games (according to BWS own description)

- Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition (standalone game)
- Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition (standalone game)
- Enhanced Edition Trilogy( BG1:EE + SoD + BG2:EE + IWD1:EE + partial IWD2-in-EET ) [sic]
- Baldur's Gate 2

- Baldur’s Gate Trilogy ( BG1 + BG2 )
- Icewind Dale / Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition
- Icewind Dale II / Icewind Dale II: Enhanced Edition (?? error in BWS description) [sic]
- Planescape: Torment (now EE, but not on BWS list)
- Classic Adventures

Even the various possible BG installs are a challenge in its own - but then those other games?

Monumental...even if you had all those games to begin with (just like you need for testing).

PS

Just as a personal example - myself, I played and modded and installed with or without BWS uncountable times (and supported BWS and fixpack in the past) but still I just ever used two games from that list, namely BGT and recently EET...
