Multiple modded BG2 installations possible?

29 September 2013 - 11:55 PM

Hey guys! I used to play a single player game in my modded BGT installation. Now some friends of mine and I want to start a multiplayer playthrough together. Since they are beginners, I thought it best to include only some very minor mods for them, thus the preferred installation differs greatly from my own.

My question is: How can I have multiple instances of modded BG games on my PC? I usually use the Big World Setup, which has an option for "independent installation", but this one always gets stuck after copying the necessary files to my new folder by asking me a question, and then the input field stays grayed out, as well as the "Send" button. So I can't answer neither [y]es nor [n]o, and after closing the script it doesn't work from that folder.

 

So is it even possible to accomplish this (pretty sure it is)!? And how? I guess I only need one BG1 installation, since it isn't really used except for copying files. So I now tried to install BG2 SoA again, which worked, but the setup.exe on my ToB CD doesn't work anymore, since it finds the other ToB installation.

 

Thanks for any advice on how to do this :-)


TobEx Console starting though ToBEx is not installed?

25 September 2013 - 09:21 AM

Hello guys,

 

I recently did a BGT installation, using the Big World Setup with "Minimal" and added some stuff. I checked the components and everything and ToBEx wasn't to be installed at all. Is it "normal" that if I start the BGMain.exe now, I still get a "TobEx Console" starting up? I mean, everything seems to be working, I'm just wondering... :)

 

More precisely, it is Throne of Bhaal Extender build 0.23.2.12 that is starting. I checked my WeiDU.log and there's no Extender to be found.

 

Thanks!
