So it's called ddraw_fix and not ddrawfix?
I mean, BWS could just search for ddraw then. Open BiG World Setup\Includes\04_Backup.au3, go to the bottom and find line 494.

For $t=0 to $Test-1
	If Not StringInStr($Test[$t], 'DDRAWFIX') Then $IsInstalled = 1
Next

Replace that with this one (forgot the ubount before).
 

For $t=0 to UBound($Test)-1
	If Not StringInStr($Test[$t], 'DDRAW') Then $IsInstalled = 1
Next

If you only got lines with DDRAW in your WeiDU.log, BWS will not force you to restore the default game.

Uhm... well, the fix is the Aqrit's DDrawFix, in my Planetscape - Torment directory I have a nvidia_ddraw_fix

 

But well, GOG releases come with it (ddraw_fix) already implemented.

As said, the BWS was looking for it as one world and with no underscore, so it would be clear why it missed yours.
So I guess looking for ddraw would be the easy way to solve that.

Indeed, I was just saying the same

Dabus, I have to congratulate you on the job well done for BWS. The multiple simultaneous downloads, the details descriptions of each step, the options, they are all great.

 

Thank you for developing this awesome tool!

I think in manual should be additional info about last release date and supporting (links) of the mods, it's a bit helpful sometimes. Anyway, thanks for a great tool!

[dabus]

Do you think release dates would tell you something about quality or support? Some mods aren't touched for ages and still would prefer them to new ones.
What kind of support-links? Like "my romance does not kick in, what do I need to do?" Maybe if you give me a list... also almost every mod is linked to the homepage.

The configuration of the BWS will not be updated by me any more. So it may differ to a current BWP-install.

So, anyone updating BWS to BWP 12 or 13 mod versions and install order?

 

Just checking before trying to learn how to do it on my own to make sure I wouldn't waste my efforts on what's already been done

Unfortunatly no one has accepted the challenge that I know... Horred the plague, took the last BWS v11.4, to accept the BP181, but that's it... the fact is, you need to be able to update the linklist... kinda.

 

But if you could, please publish your findings if you at all can.

Hey, any news from you side ?

Yes, I've downloaded v.13 manual and located version history section therein

 

I mean, even if I'll succeed at some point, which is unlikely as I'm not a programmer of any sort, it would definitely take more time than a couple of days
