Odd Bug Report for Updated BWP
The gaggle of goblins and kobolds in the NW of the Coast Way (just outside Candlekeep) has a bunch of invisible goblins. I can see the Big Picture "comments" floating in mid-air, but don't see the goblins until they stab me, which is a total bummer for a 1st level char.
Dunno what's causing it, 'cause it didn't happen in BWP 5.5. Weidu.log attached for the curious.
No big deal, I'll just keep on playing 5.5 like I was. Thought I'd report it, though, in case someone else had the same prob.
Cheers,

what i could imagine is that you have not set it to preserve paths when unrarring them.
it should be on by default, but if you haven't, it would save the file \cheese\file A.ext in X:\stuff\archive.rar in X:\stuff, rather than in X:\stuff\cheese.
which would be at another location than is searched.
Actually, upon further examination, I found that the problem was indeed with 7Zip. Trying to extract the files from the self-extracting .exe's seems to leave a couple of files behind. When I ran the .exe's themselves, all the files came out unscathed. I have no idea why that would be, but there you go. The mystery of the missing files is solved.
Now if only I could figure out what's wrong with Stone of Askavar, I'd be golden

Leonardo,
Strange that you can't reproduce the errors. Perhaps I'll try redownloading the mods. Perhaps because I extracted them with WinRAR and not 7zip? I dunno. And yes, I used the auto-installer.
Anyway, a separate install left NEJ working fine, but the other errors cropped up again. I'll try again with new downloads of the mods, leave Unique Artifacts out, and see what happens.
Thanks for the comments... I'll keep you posted on any more issues that crop up!

EDIT: Redownloaded the mods, and the files I've previously noted are still missing. How's that possible? I'm really not sure why that is, but I'll keep editing mentions of them out of their TP2s and see if they'll go through all right.
