Hi there

I've been trying to set up a BGT game on a 10.9.4 iMac using the GOG downloads of Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 and the user guide found here. It appears that a patch isn't getting written to BGMain.exe as each time during the Character Creation phase the game will crash as soon as I click on 'Skills.'

During the program load ToBEx gives an error that states:

-----TobEx: Throne of Bhaal Extender build 0.26.3.25 (Sat 20 Sep 2014 20:45:52)

[Sat 20 Sep 2014 20:45:52] ApplyPatch(): WriteProcessMemory failed, address: 0x93fffe, error code: 317

But no info on what the patch it's having problems with might be.

I've checked the game at different stages and it's only a problem if ToBEx is involved. I could replace the ToBEx-ed BGMain.exe with a non patched version and the game will run fine and I can complete the character creation. Bring the patched BGMain.exe in and the character creation will fail every time as soon as you click on skills.

Now of course I could just replace the BGMain long enough to get a character created and then swap back for my play through but if there's a problem it could just as easily come up again or be affecting something else so if anyone knows of a fix I'd be all ears

Any logs or system info I can give to help please let me know.

Thanks :-)

Did you try the default troubleshoot for ToBEx ?

Troubleshooting
---------------
First, make sure that TobEx is actually the issue.
You can forcefully disable TobEx from running by renaming TobEx.dll in your game directory.

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit).
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Just tried it. Rename TobEx.dll and the character creation screen works correctly : clicking skills takes me to the skills selection instead of a crash.

I know this thread is old and everything, but I think I've found a way to avoid this; edit TobExCore.ini where it says:

[Spells]
Casting Fixes=1

and turn that option off (change the 1 for a 0). At least this works for me (using v0.26 beta).

I am not responsible if other issues arise because of this
