I just started my first run of BGT, and I've already run into my first problem... In Candlekeep near the storehouse stands Jondalar, who wants to teach me how to fight.. It's the guy that 'surprises' you by 'summoning' an archer.. As far as I remember from playing BG1 (which is quite a while ago.) he isn't supposed to be able to actually damage you.. Well, now he appears to be able to damage me just fine, killing my thief on first hit most of the time.. I'm guessing this is a bug..

Btw: I have the bg2fixpack and some ease of use things installed, no other mods..

I guess I should have registered, than I could've edited the post I've just made.. But I just noticed that the archer guy summoned by Jondalar (Erik's his name) works just fine, his hits don't do damage..

Maybe Carbos or Shank murdered him and put on the Archer's clothes

By the way, don't use Ease Of Use, use BG2 Tweakpack (over at The Gibberlings Three), it contains every component of Ease of Use, loads more, and is fixed and up to daate.

Hmm, could you navigate to your BGT-WeiDU installation directory in cmd, make a copy of WeiDU.exe if it doesn't exist from a Setup-*.exe file, and then type in:

WeiDU --change-log BGSTAF04.ITM >> log.txt

then

WeiDU --change-log JONDAL.CRE >> log.txt

and then post the textual contents of log.txt here?

hmm.. let's see if I did this right:

I made a copy of Setup-BGT.exe, renamed it to WeiDU.exe and executed weidu --change-log BGSTAF04.ITM in cmd.. this gave me a fatal error unfortunately:

Sys_error("bg2fixpack/backup/0/MAPPINGS.0: No such file or directory")

When replacing BGSTAF04.ITM with JONDAL.CRE i got the same error... (of course.. the file didn't appear out of nowhere.. :| )

Did you delete the mod folders after installing them?

Well, it should definitely be there if you installed BG2 Fixpack Core Fixes.

You could try placing an empty MAPPINGS.0 in that directory but then WeiDU will probably ignore any changes from that component.

Try the attached file. Unpack it in your BG2 main directory and start it. After a few seconds the DOS-Window will close and you find a changelog.txt in your BG2 main directory. Post the content here.

After that open the file with a textprogram and change BGSTAF04.ITM to JONDAL.CRE. Close the window and save the changes. Start the file and post the new content here, too.

that file gives the same error as my earlier proceedings.. I don't have a MAPPINGS.0 in the backup/0 dir, neither have a MAPPINGS.1 in the backup/1 dir, and I don't have any MAPPINGS files in my ease backup dir either.. So I made a lot of empty files like Taimon suggested, and finally WeiDU wanted to spit out some logs.. here they are:

Mods affecting BGSTAF04.ITM:
00000: /* from game biffs */ ~SETUP-BGT.TP2~ 0 0 // Baldur's Gate Trilogy - Core

Mods affecting JONDAL.CRE:
00000: ~SETUP-BGT.TP2~ 0 0 // Baldur's Gate Trilogy - Core

I don't have an idea.
Normally we install BG2 Tweak Pack instead of Ease of Use and that after BGT Tweaks. Perhaps that you have installed EoU before BGT has done something wrong?!?
