As introduced starting a new BGT game results with having 7lvl characters as it is in SOA. I'm using polish version of the game. I did some research and found program called xppatcher but it does nothing. Is there anyone who can help me ? I'm attaching my weidu.log and "fixed" BGMain.exe, and since it's my 1st post - hello to everyone.

I uploaded a .rar package, and in it you'll find a patched .exe and the utility I used to make it, you need to unpack it with a .rar extractor, like the WinRAR.

However you did your install, the BGMain hasn't actually been fixed. It may be due to some program you are running in the background (or Windows) preventing the exe from being patched. Try Jarno's attachment.

Ok it does work but it messes up with my gui again. And if lade jarl's gui is reinstalled it overwrites bgmain.exe and it's back to 89000.
If you could tell me what i have to change in tp2 of tutugui to change it, or which are responsible for exact graphics in character's creation screen, so i could put them in override.

Apply the exe before installing TutuGUI. (i.e. uninstall TutuGUI first).

I've done that. And TutuGUI is setting the experience back to 89k. The way I did is to patch the game with xppatcher, then make your character, back it up, reinstal gui and play. Many thanks though.

No, don't re-install. You need to make sure you uninstall TutuGUI and then install it again.

By saying re-install I meant uninstall and then install :)
In meantime I've found a solution. You have to replace bgmain.exe after fresh installation with patches, but before aplaying ANY mods. And i think it should work fine ( worked for me, but I don't know if i changed anything else )
If this won't work then 2nd solution is to: uninstall gui, patch with xppatcher from jarno, then make a team, back it ip, install gui import team and play.

install gui import team and play.

That won't work, as the imported chars will have the beginning xp, but if you load the save, it will work...

This isn't really making any sense to me. The idea that I got is not that TutuGUI itself causes the XP patch to fail, it is perhaps that some mod has backed up a non-patched version of the EXE, so whenever you re-install that mod, it restores the non-patched version of the EXE. It seems that TutuGUI isn't actually the culprit at all, since making sure that TutuGUI is in the uninstalled state when you apply the XP patch should actually fix the problem. So it might actually be another mod causing the problem.
