logs frome where? Which file?

BTW After my last stuck, I started bat file again, without any reinstalling the game. There a lot of warnings and i got a feeling that some mods did't installed.

From the game directory, there is a WeiDU.log, and then when you install a mod, it gives you a setup-*modname*.debug file that logs what's happening at every turn of that mods installation, and the BiG World Install.bat makes 'BiG World Debug.txt' file. Now, as you should know, never restart the BiG World Install.bat, as it starts the first mod, not the last you ended up into, so you are just doing bad and worse things to your game. I would suggest that you uninstall the whole game and re install it from scratch, after you have cleaned the game directory...

Also take note that some of those files are really large when in .txt file format when you upload them, so package them in to a .rar or .zip archive and you spare a lot of time up and downloading the files, from you and us.

Hi,

Does it look like this?

[2red]

i did't install widescreen mod, but i have one in BiG World Downloads though

Oh well. since you have posted the lo, you know that you can resolve the problem by looking at it.

The weidu-auto-update is going through the setups and it seems to be stuck.

[Setup-A6XPPATCH.exe] WeiDU version 20200
{setup-1pp.exe} Queried (pid = 1892) version = 21000 query done.
{setup-abystore.exe} Queried (pid = 1908) version = 195 query done.
....

Setup-A6XPPATCH.exe] WeiDU version 20200
{setup-1pp.exe} Queried (pid = 1868)[WeiDU-Backup] WeiDU version 21100

So I'd suggest you replace the setup-1pp.exe with another copy of weidu.exe and start the BiG World Install.bat with the same settings again.

[2red]

So, i have to just make a copy of weidu.exe, rename it to setup-1pp.exe and then replace old file?

[dabus]

That's what I've said.

OK, the game installed, but now i have another problem: An Assertion failed in ChDimm.ccp at line number 628
Programmer says: Unable to Open BIF:DATA\HD0GMOSC.BIF. My Alias are right. And no, im not gonna reinstall it again. I did it too many times, i need a solution without any reinstalling.

I've solve the problem, but now i have another one:

When im leaving candlekeep for the first time(with Gorion) there must be a cutscene when Gorion dies, but after loading this location, black screen appears and nothing happening.

Hellou!
I decided to do a fresh BWP tactics install but my Install.bat stops in the beginning all the time.
Any suggestions?

I had the same problem doing a install on my machine last night.
I traced the problem to the code for updating all the SETUP-*.exe files to the latest version of WEIDU. The routine to get the size of the WEIDU.EXE file fails with something like "\Black Not expected" but this does not get logged and the only way to see it is to run the batch from a command line.
I got around this by manually updating all the SETUP-*.exe files by:
At a command prompt doing a dir /s setup-*.exe whilst in the SOA install directory to get a list of setup files, noting which directory they are in.
For each directory copying the weidu.exe file there from the install directory then run it and giving it the command --update-all

The following code was then removed from the BiG World Install.bat :-

:: otherwise the mods cannot be installed automatically by WeiDU
 
%IFE.%     All Setup-x.exe get updated with the recent WeiDU.exe, now.
%IFE.%     This may take some time. Please be patient!

And the Big World Install.bat ran through successfully.



After a bit more looking I think the following code fix should correct the Big World Install.bat

Right at the bottom of the batch file change

:: Returns the size of a file. Parameter %1 = the line that has to be searched, %2 = the file to search for
:GrepLine
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
For /d %%i In (%~1) Do (
	If "%%i" == "%2" (
::return the size
		Exit /b !size!
	)	
	Set size=%%i
)
ENDLOCAL
:: return with return-value 0 (failure)
Exit /b 0

to

SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION

Adding the two lines after the "SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION" command


Edit: Put the echo text in double quotes to stop a further issue from occuring later.
