Hello,

I just installed a "recommended" version thanks to The Big World Setup. I had to manually set up some mods on account on some missing and some being corrupted.
I managed to start BGmain and create a character, then started the game itself, then some stuff (video & scene where someone says "bad dog, away with you" and a mage battle follows) that isn't in the vanilla game happened, then the screen turned black (game seemed to be still running as I had sounds) and I was unable to do anything but alt+F4. I tried multiple times. Here's my Weidu log:

And by BGmain, I mean baldur.exe :)

you describe the cutscene where worgas is teleported to irenicus dungeon. that means you start a bg2 game, yet your install is a BGT megamod. did you mean to start a bg2 game ?

Yep, I installed BGT and everything needed for BG1 although I wanted to play BG2 only, in case I'd want to play BG1 again later (: (I replayed BG1 a year ago)
So yeah after character creation, I get a video, a cutscene and then a black screen with no overlay, but with environmental sounds, and the game still reacts to alt+F4. Also, I can start a BG1 game without problems.
