Wow! loads of freaky stuff in there! :D Thanks a lot for uploading that!

Major problem seems to be this:

[WeiDU.exe] WeiDU version 22000
[WeiDU.exe] Using scripting style "BG2"
WARNING: unable to open [temp/0/UNINSTALL.0]: Sys_error("temp/0/UNINSTALL.0: Permission denied")
      Will be unable to UNINSTALL later.
ERROR: Sys_error("temp/0/ARGS.0: Permission denied")
PLEASE email the file nul to me
Automatically Skipping [creature offset checker] because of error.
... and I'm still on line 1200 out of 500000 :wacko:

PS: Would the new WeiDU version have something to do with this?? I remember the offset checker borked in another WeiDU version (which got fixed in the next version though :P)

Also, Arkenor, are all the mods you're using the latest versions??



They're whatever version the downloader has provided.

I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from my logs, if they seem odd. I do have a tendency to fiddle and modify things to my own liking and for ease of install that may be causing that. You might want to wait for the logs of someone less meddlesome!

lol :P

But it does show that there are redundant patches for SCS, SCSII and item upgrade in the fixpack :D and also some freaky stuff that might be genuine problems but might need some other logs too ...

Thanks though :cheers:

That may be due to some of my antics. I've just started a proper clean install, to make sure I'm not leading you astray. Will post the log from that when it's done.

Since you and Leomar have been absent, there have not been beta-releases in last few months (?).

One thing I've noticed is that Infinity Animations settings are not saved within the setup program. I always have to add them after loading my mod selection.

Edit: hmm, and this is the wrong thread to mention that. Nevermind! My fresh install logs should be with you in a few minutes. They still look a bit troubled, so you should find something to play with in them.

This one has the same errors but the install was flawless :) The failed offset patching might lead to CtDs in the BGI part of the game when those creatures show up though :P Thanks!

Might wanna report this to the WeiDU forums (for lack of a better place to report this :P)

@Arkenor: You might wanna have a glance at this thread about the cre offset thing :) More importantly, are you on OSX??

Windows 7. It's certainly made the install peskier than it used to be, with me needing to extract some packages by hand, even with turning off the overzealous security.

However, it's not the culprit on this occasion. I have a temp/0/ folder. I guess getting a log from someone who is not me might be quite useful in narrowing this down. I surely can't be the only person who's run an install in the last few days!

Item Randomisation got some hotfixes today: http://forums.gibber...topic=20950&hl=

Probably want to include Turambar's fixes if it isn't already.

Did you mess with the creature offset checker code? Or did you have antivirus running during the install? If not and it's not a Win7 thing (which is what it appears) then it could be a WeiDU error I suppose.

I have not messed with the creature offset checker code. That's the sort of thing I would have mentioned specifically in this situation.

Why do you think it's a Windows 7 issue?

Have a look at the PPG thread I linked ;) thebigg said (before the super powerful ass-raping donkey reference :P) that OSX had problems with files of a certain type, could be that Win7 uses something similar :unsure:

I read it. the Bigg said

OTOH, if temp or temp/0 is a regular file, WeiDU might barf out with a similar message. In fact, a well known bug on OSX is that temp is a regular file, so that might be the cause of the problem.


That's very Mac specific, and will have no bearing on a PC. And as I mentioned there, I have a perfectly good temp/0 folder. It was created fine. In fact I'm going to zip it up and attach it here to prove it! Perhaps its contents may be some clue.

Hmm, scratch that. Uploading is unnecessary. It's definitely a clue. There's a file called uninstall.0 (and an args.0, mappings.0, move.0, and readln.0)in it, and for some reason they're all marked as read-only. It must have been left over from a previous install, even though I used the BWP-setup's "Restore" option. Unsurprisingly I suppose if they were read-only. Question is, how did it end up that way?

The only connection between "previous install" and "read-only" I can think of is the fact that the BWPCleanup.bat used to make files read-only so that they're not deleted, but it also used to remove the -r flag after deletion ... :unsure:

Also ...

@BWP guys (aka dabus :P): How are patches being made these days?? Will someone support the beta fixpack?? I'll try to help with the fix collecting in this thread like before :)

I suppose it might be something funky going on with Win 7, though it hasn't made any other files read-only. Needs getting to the bottom of, at any rate, as an ever increasing number of users are going to be using Win 7.

Before someone asks, no, my BG2 installs do not live in the "Program Files" directory.

I have a fresh install underway (my first one using the beta-setup). Having deleted the files from temp/0, the creature fixer looks to have worked just fine. Will post the logs when it's done. (Edit: Eek. Remembered to delete empty_override.bat just in time, before it mangled me again)

@Lol:
As said in another thread: Betas died when you and Leomar were absent for personal reasons.
I've never done patches, maybe Leomar will reply to an email after a few days. Maybe you just try to mail him or Leonardo.

That's a pity :crying: I dunno how to create the pathes either (much less how the "_copy", "_depend" and other stuff in the fixpack works :P)

But this thread can still serve its purpose :D Like ... how about NOW!

Suggestion: Someone may want to pick up BP-Balancer or fix the requirements for the installation.

Also found that the fixpack patch for Tactics checked for BPv179 ;) Both files in the attached package :cheers:

Yeah, probably best to tell Leonardo. And another reason why there are no further beta versions of the fixpack might be, that simply not many fixes were made. Mods got updates and problems were solved (see SCSII etc.) or we are trying to solve them (see TDD-thread, regarding TS25minimod), but not (that) much for the fixpack. I think... :whistling:
