I think there's something with the WeiDU installation, fixable in TP2. Don't know how though
The mentioned problem workaround is:
- install 1st component, quit
- install 2nd component, quit
- install 3rd component
If installing them without quit there's an error about the wrong EXE version.

You were perfectly right, my friend, thank you very much.
I wonder how i could install the palette mod though.

[ScuD]

The palette mod installs fine, it does not create any incompatibilities. I can post my WeiDU.log if needed, but later.

Yes. It would appear the arrays don't get cleared between components, which is odd because I think they did when I tested? Maybe a change in WeiDU?

Fixed installer here; see if the problem still happens.

I'll update the download once it's confirmed to work

And it works !

That's all very good news!

From what I understand, this fix simply restores older animations used in IWD without expansion packs, i.e. original BG I animations. At the same time, it is incompatible with most 1pp releases. Does that mean that 1pp v2/v3 animation/avatar/paperdoll/other replacements available for both BG II and IWD series still offer better quality as compared to this fix? For instance, 1pp v2.70 pack offers custom-made re-worked weapon graphics and paperdolls and 1pp Thieves Galore has awesome custom-made hooded avatars and paperdolls. I assume these won't be available once you restore the original IWD animations which makes this fix far less attractive than restoring better-looking BG I graphics (with re-worked additions) through these other 1pp releases. Could you confirm this or correct me if I am completely wrong? In other words, which of the 1pp packs for IWD graphic replacement should I use to get the finest quality?

To sum up:
This fix: BG I graphics replacement, incompatible with other 1pp mods.
1pp v2.70 and v3 releases: BG I graphics replacement AND re-worked stuff AND additinal ehnancements AND custom content.

I realize *quality* is subjective, but I generally agree with 1pp ethos in this regard, i.e. BG I stuff looks better than BG II, and most custom content made by 1pp artists (like these unique thief avatars) fits into BG I style.

Stunning work, many thanks Erephine.

Please note, the mod is not updated (fixed installer).

The link for the fix is dead.

DAMMNIT ERPHINE I TOLD YOU NOT TO UPLOAD TO MEGAUPLOAD THAT SITE SUCKS AND I HATE WAITING FOR DOWNLOADS RAGERRRAGAGABLASA </anger>

A workaround would just to install one component at a time (meaning, close WeiDU after installing the first component, install second, close again, you get the idea.).

[mssellerie69]

I tried to install it this way, but it doesn't work. Does any body got the file for me?

I installed Icewind Dale new. First Icewind Dale, 2nd Heart of Winter, 3rd Trials of the Luremaster.

Then I wanted to install 1pp IWD Fixes. First component "1ppv: Fix character attack animation sounds in TotLM" - OK
But the 2nd component "1ppv: Fix combat animation bug (enable combat stance animations)" gave me this error:

Any idea

[Dakk]

Only one suggestion - get the IWD-in-BG2 conversion on G3 (which, IIRC, have all the 1PP components integrated).

Is the installer of the uploaded version estill broken/requiring you to restart after each component? I can't remember whether I got around to updating with the fixed one or not.

I installed Icewind Dale new. First Icewind Dale, 2nd Heart of Winter, 3rd Trials of the Luremaster.

It seems your install is missing the IWD dragon animation, which sounds like something may be off with your game files. Have you done a full install? I'm pretty sure this would cause issues with the game aside from any mod compatibility.

I'm having an issue where the male elf / half-elf paperdoll (ranger & mage) has an offset error. all equipment is shifted to the right of the correct position by some amount of pixels. Is this a problem with my install order? I'm using IWD + How + ToL + 1.42 patch, followed by these mods. I performed full installs.

This should be fixed with current releases. If you install the 1pp animation fixes for IWD first and then install/update to 1ppv4 everything should work correctly.

[mssellerie69]

Erephine: Yes, I have done a full install.

[Erephine]

Well, you can try putting this in your override and it will install. I still think your game/install is bugged though. The files should not be missing.

Erephine: I put the Dragon files in the Override. Now I got this error:
