Mmm...I have 2,46 MB and 2,47 MB on disk, but Italian version. I don't know, it could be a damaged CD with some files missing, but I think an error would result. Any solution about the debug file attachment?

OK, had a look at the DEBUG file and...there is nothing wrong! :WTF:
Here are some suggestions that you should try in the following order:

1) Try uninstalling the menu component/s (both if you have done it) only and run BGII
2) Replace BGMain.exe with the one in <BGII install directory>\BGT\Backup\0\BGMain.exe (don't forget to backup the existing one and replace it after you have tried this) and run BGII
3)Install BGT-WeiDU without BD-WeiDU before it and run BGII
4)Uninstall all mods and see if you can run BGII

Sadly, I can't install it by any means. I'll try Tutu, if it also fails it means that it's a BG1 install problem. I don't know what other do, it keeps me giving error in BGmain. Thanks for your help, anyways.

Sorry, last thing: some time ago, during SoA install my system froze for a stupid windows error and from that time I can't install from the CD autorun (it keeps saying play) but I must explore the CD and choose setup. I don't think it's BGT related because unmodded game runs smoothly.

I installed BG1Tutu and it runs perfectly! What a mistery...I'm the only one who is having problems with BGT-weidu!

Although I'd like to know the core of the problem so that when other people run into it, then I can at least fix it for everybody...have fun with Tutu.

If it can help, my error is at offset 00603605 in BGMain.exe; I don't know what it means. I tried to install on another computer with the same result. Cheers.

No dialog for driad in the are south of Candlekeep(the one named "smth the Nereid", she should start quest with ogre-mage as far as i remember).

One question - should i install Baldurdash fixes for BG1 or they are inside BGT alredy?

If you still have BGT-WeiDU installed on this other computer can you try replacing the BGMain.exe as described earlier? It might be that the XP limit offset is different, which could be dire.

I did it, without any effect: I have exactly the same error. I didn't try previous 0.99 builds, but the 0.94 build worked for me (some time ago)

Now it could be the menu screens screwing you up. Can you uninstall them? Run SETUP_BGT-MAIN.EXE and select [U] for the two menu components only.

Shoal will not talk to you unless you have a ReactionGT HOSTILE_UPPER.

Baldurdash fixes are only partially in BGT-WeiDU. I am currently in the process of cataloguing the changes so the fixpack guys can work on it if they ever want to. However, the fixpack for BG1 will not work with BGT-WeiDU, so don't try it.

No, the problem is the core is the core part. I installed only that component with the same outcome. I really think there's incompatibility with the Italian version, I don't see other reasons.

Possibly. I'll need someone else to report this to clarify this...anyone? I would still like to know the exact problem so I can attempt to fix it, but we'll save that for later.

Finally I found the problem: corrupted files in BG1 folder! I have many 0 bytes music files, the script folder and the characters folder with 0 bytes files and empty sounds folder. I didn't noted that before because it didn't prevent starting a new game in BG1. Is there some way to make the conversion work (e.g. changing tp2 files?) or I shold rebuy BG1? Thanks

I've heard of such problems before (old and worn CDs) and people claimed that it helps to copy all the CDs to your hard drive first and then install from there.

Maybe this helps you too :blush:

I'm having a strange problem that is making me think that I installed mods in the incorrect order, despite them being solely WeiDU mods.

On occasion, when I am 'waylaid by enemies and must defend myself' while moving between map areas, instead of 'waylaid by enemies...' being displayed in the text window, I always see some random journal entry. For example, I was attacked by a group of gnolls and the text window filled up with the journal entry from the Prologue where Reevor (sp?) wanted me to kill the rats in the warehouse. On another occasion, I was attacked while resting and the text window filled up with text about the gnome whose house in Beregost had been taken over by huge spiders, a quest I had long since completed.

And just last night I was clearing the bandit camp (BG1) and I saw in my text window: "Dynaheir: Celestial Fury +5".

Now, obviously, this has to do with the dialogue-altering mods that I've installed, most notably in this case the Item Upgrade mod (http://weidu.org/item.html). I installed only the WeiDU mods from that site (Ease of Use, Item Upgrade, etc.) and I installed them after running the BGT install. My question is; should I have installed them on top of BG2 *prior* to the BGT-WeiDU installation? Or am I going to be stuck with this (admittedly minor) problem regardless?

Thanks.

I think you are stuck. Item Update, if it is a Weidu mod (and that one is) will add text to the dialog.tlk file just like the other mods did. Did you miss something during the install (like part of TS?) or did you install any really old mods that use an IAP file to install after installing everything else?

Tired of Bhaal? Try some classics mods instead:

The only mods I installed are as follows:

WeiDU Ease of Use (only the item stacking components; I tried to avoid any unnecessary components)
WeiDU Item Upgrade (both for SoA and ToB)
Caspenar sounds for Item Upgrade mod
WeiDU Underrepresented Items
Monk HLA component of G3 Oversight mod (skipped all other components)

I didn't use any other mods. I can live without the item upgrade mod if it looks to be the sole contributor to this problem, but I thought that all WeiDU mods were designed to work together specifically to avoid dialog.tlk problems.

I'm not sure what you're asking here. I didn't see any errors in the BGT installation. What is TS?
