Hello all, I have a small problem with BGT-WEIDU: it always pops up the BGConfig screen saying it's the first time I play, which is not.

Is there any switch/value that I can set somewhere to prevent it from popping up again?

Thanks in advance,

-Karsus

It should be:

[Program Options]
First Run=0

but if you are running Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may have difficulty editing the INI file yourself (cause these OS's assume every user is completely incompetent and shouldn't have control over anything... <_<

) See here for a mostly complete description of all the possible keys and values for BGII.

If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being so seldom seen that even the denizens of the nine hells themselves wouldn't touch it with a twenty-foot rusty halberd!

That is if you install the game to the default install directory, cause the Windows XP sp3, Vista and 7 all try to protect the sub-folders in there. So just install the game to C:\Games\BGII - SoA and you then you can edit the baldur.ini file with Notepad, but then again, you don't need to do that...

Thank you very much for the quick replies.
I have double checked my .INI file, and it didn't have the First Run=0 setting so I added that line.
However, I also have noticed a setting that is not reported in your sheet...
Might it be that the problem lays with it?

[Program Options]
Installing=1
