@Daulmakan in the readme you mention that this isnt compatible with the Vault, is that just the new component or is it something else? I checked an earlier version's readme (1. and it doesnt mention that incompatibility. thanks

@ orion "I'm gonna write a postmortem of the BWP installation in the following days with some suggestions." PLEASE do this ... I need it .... and is need it (at least for those like me with no much knowledge in IE moding)

There is one problem that I'm not being able to solve (2 actually).

 

1) The Music for Keldorn Romance inside Vlad compilation is failing to install, some problem in a Keldorn .bcs file. Is weird because, does not matter what I fixed or changed it always fails to install. More weird that it says that "Music for Keldorn romance MUST BE INSTALLED for Tortured Souls". I don't know if is a "must be" or a "you must install it or it will break".

 

2) For some reason Khalid and Jaheira lose their voice sets and the subtitles are all garbage lines. In the case of Jaheira lines related to a character called Leina. The voice sets and subtitles of other npcs are completely okey. Most interesting the BWP pdf says the following:

 

Component 37 [Stats and Portraits of Viconia and Jaheira. BG1 Viconia and Jaheira can get their BG2 portraits and stats (by Vlad)]? [N]ot Install

This component will ruin Jaheria NPC in BG1/BGT. She will not have voiceover at all and her generic standard lines/commands are mismatched. Also this component will giver her ++ proficiency in crossbow which she can't use anyway plus ankheg armor which may seem overpowered for some

 

This is exactly the problem I'm having, and indeed Jaheira have an ankheg armor, except that the component 37 is nowhere being installed in the individual.bat. So there must be an error in the BWP pdf and another Vlad Compilation component is causing the error.

 

My guess is that, the problem is being caused by other component inside Vlad Compilation, OR, the problem is being caused because of the failed installation of the Keldorn Romance Music that is ruining something of the tortured souls installation.

I'm gonna try completely ignoring tortured souls, Leina NPC, Jaheira Priest of Silvanus component (I think this is the one causing troubles), and see what a happens.

Aside from that everything seems to be working, npcs are firing their banters correctly, I was able to reach Nashkel, the banters of Jaheira are okey, etc.

Yeah I've got something similar on a couple of installs. 

I've just installed BGT, vlad's compilation and NEJ and Khalid has a mix of Kagain and Jaheira's sound sets and when he dieds it displays Jaheira biography text. Last time i checked, after noticing something weird with Khalid's soundsets, he had Leina's. No idea what is causing that. I think i ended up deleting Khalid's .cre files from VCv21\NeJE\bdash\BGTComp\copy

I have also had issues with ~SETUP-VCV21.TP2~ #0 #13 // Music for Keldorn, Tortured Souls and Leina (MUST be installed for any of these mods): v2.1 BWP adaptation

but it installed ok on my most recent install. I was using PI for most of it but it doesnt copy a few files correctly from Vlad's comp so i install those components manually. I  think maybe it was because oggdec.exe didnt get copied from extracted mods folder to \BGII - SOA folder

And there are some .wav files in VCv21\override that are needed and i know PI doesn't copy the \overide folder across

I'm not using the EEs, I'm using the originals.

@TDouglas, are you sure these aren't linux problems?

I've got a working install following the most recent pdf, including tobex afterlife, generalised biffing and far too many other mods. Yeah I've got a few issues but it nothing major, that I've found so far anyway. And the issues I have had on recent installs were usually my own fault for doing something dumb.

This is on a win10 machine.

Why do you say the pdf is that out dated as to be unusable?

There have been a lot of cool looking mods released recently for the EE games but I don't think there have been any major changes to mods that work on the originals, and so I don't see why the install order would have changed that much in the last 18 months..

Which ones are you having problems with?

I am tweaking a few things for my next planned install but again nothing major. I'm interested in seeing what you come up with, not trying to say don't bother or anything like that, if there is a better order I'll happily give it a try.

Hello. Sorry for wasting your time, it's not BGT thats doing it. I should have actually checked properly rather than just assuming before posting in a rush.

According to the changelog its this;

~SETUP-VCV21.TP2~ #0 #9 // New Fixes: v2.1 BWP adaptation

I didn't think Vlad's compilation really touched BG1 (apart from the black talon elite and bank) and so I assumed it wasnt that or Nej.

I'm pretty sure this isn't what its supposed to be doing but not sure why its happening.

Thanks again
