Hi. Yesterday, there was my first try of BWP installing and i got a problem. Somewhere during the installation process some windows components and other programs (for example winRar and download master) instead of russian menu names became like "??????????" Posted Image

Also, because of this thing happened, my BW installation wasnt finished. Infinity animations couldn't be installed.

Installing [Infinity Animations] [v5]
Copying 1 file ...
Copying and patching 1 file ...

An installed mod requires Belhifet_and_Marilith.zip extracted to your
infinityanimations/content folder.

An installed mod requires Shadows_harpy_frostgiant.zip extracted to your
infinityanimations/content folder.

NOTE: Download all content from Spellhold Studios. Each content module is at
www.shsforums.net/index.php?autocom=downloads&showcat=98. Extract all archives
using the "Do not extract paths" option on the Advanced tab in WinRAR. Also,
make sure the "Destination path" on the General tab terminates in /content or
/restore after infinityanimations (there are no subfolders beyond that).

For WinZip, make sure the "Use folder names" box is *unselected*. You should
end up with a bunch of .bam files and no subfolders in your "content" and/or
restore folders. Rerun this installer once you've extracted all content.

NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Infinity Animations

Press ENTER to exit.


I'm quite sure this happened because in infiniti animations content folder I have files like "¢A¢A1A1.BAM, ¢A¢E4A1.BAM, цbvwke.bam". So they somehow got damaged names too. I'm going to reinstall my system and try to instal BWP once more. Have you any clues why did it happened and how to prevent it from happening again.

I have Win Xp Service pack 3, and I was instaling english BWP version because i want to play NEJ and some more mods which do ot have russian translation.

Those are the right filenames. Infinity Animations needs codepage 1252 or it won't work. It is best to change it yourself as described here. You can change it back to Russian when you're not playing the game.
