'einz' is wrong (it's eins).

Anyway, the crash is most likely a result of either a corrupted animation (since you have Infinity Animations installed, there is a chance that somehow a .cre file still uses a lower animation (e.g: L_Cleric_Human_Male instead of Cleric_Human_Male), which would cause a crash.) or -more likely- an illegally equipped item (or corrupted item) in one of the .cre files.

Since the crash only occurs when you're getting waylaid, you can pretty much narrow the problem down to the following game areas (I'm just stealing those from the German help post, in case you're wondering.. ):

AR0041 Random Encounter City 

AR0042 Random Encounter Outdoor 

AR0043 Random Encounter Outdoor (With rocks) 

AR0044 Random Encounter Outdoor (sand) 

AR0045 Random Encounter City 

AR0046 Random Encounter City (bridge)

(Also, if you were traveling from city-area to city-are you can exclude the outdoor areas and vice versa.)

Now, what you have to do, is this:

Use NearInfinity to look at the area scripts (choose the bcs folder and then open the corresponding areas e.g: ar0046.bcs ...)

Within the area script, you look for any line that looks like this :

CreateCreature("RETHIE01",[585.542],10) // Slaver

(to make it easier, you can also search for createcreature [choose ONLY IN THIS FILE as a search option] and you'll get a list with all creatures which get spawned in those areas.)

Once you know the creatures, you can narrow down the culprit by replacing the creature files - one by one- and then retry the encounters, until your game won't crash anymore.

To do this, simply copy some other .cre file and rename it to the creature in question. E.g: for

CreateCreature("RETHIE01",[585.542],10) // Slaver

you copy any other .cre file and rename it to rethie01.cre and place it in your override folder. (Just make sure to backup any already existing files in your override folder, or those might be lost.=)

Once you've found the right .cre you can take a closer look at it (again with NI).

Oh, before I forget! For the German user with the same problem, it was 'SW1H27.ITM' that caused the problem.

So you might try to replace that one first, maybe you're 'lucky' and it is indeed the same problem.

(Copy SW1H26.ITEM and rename it..)

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the help Ulb.

Proof of how much german I know!

While waiting I tried to narrow the problem down a bit and suddenly the game did not like me anymore, so I had to reinstall it (currently in the process). I hope the problem does not reappear but if it does I will come back to the post and see if I can norrow it down and solve it.

Thanks for the help

P.S. I should learn some german considering I live just north of the bloody country

It's always the bloody Danes, having me write whole debugging tutorials for nothing.

The author of Breagar told me, he's fixing some bugs left to release a new version supporting both german and english (the translation I provided for Breagar, and Questpack as well).

Ha... a Danish... jeg havde en kæreste i Danmark

That's great news, do you have any insight, as to whether there will be a basic voice set for the english version? (I just can't play with mute npcs...)

As of now no, I'm sorry.

However, if you take a look at Textpack English, you may notice that german audio set provided is being used for english version as well.

I could provide english sound set myself but, at the moment, I'm moving into a new house (some last hour things to be done), job and providing translations for the last BWP mods (Severian, Trovador, Umbra of T.R.O.W., Macholy's Living Mod and Tweak Pack, Houyi, Rukrakia, YLitems and Tomoyo -- all the others, polish mods as well, are currently under proofreading) are taking all my time

Work faster then!

No, seriously I wasn't trying to push you into doing a voice set, just asking whether there was one.

I might end up using one from the vanilla game or one of the many custom sound sets there are. Can't be too hard to implement them as an npc sound set.

Anyway, thanks for the info and good luck with moving (and all the rest ).

I've been having the same issue with the past three BigWorld installs I've attempted, using three different versions of BWS.

I've messed with NearInfinity, but I don't really know what I'm doing or looking at.

When you say "Copy SW1H26.ITEM and rename it," you mean copy and rename it to SW1H27.ITEM? Where can I find SW1H26.ITEM?

Well, what can I tell you... I'm a musician

There is the german audio set provided with the mod itself, we're currently using it for english version as well. Although you're right, it would be nice having localized sound sets available

You're welcome

Uh, sorry for neglecting you!

First, you direct to your BG2 folder and from there you open the override folder and check if there is already a file named sw1h27.ITM. If there is, rename it to sw1h27_backup.itm for something (so you can restore the 'original', should it not be the cause for your troubles).

Next, you open NearInfinity. On the left side you will see a lot of 'folders' with labels like 2DA, ARE, ... ; find the folder labeled with ITM.

Click said folder once so it opens. Now you'll see all .itm files of your BG2 game. Simply scroll down to sw1h26.itm, right click it and select 'Add Copy' and enter some easy to find name like ###1. Once you've done that, go back to your override folder and rename it to sw1h27.itm.
