Hello.

I´m having a bit of a situation here. When I run the BiG World Install.bat file the initial choices go as planned, but then I receive some strange options for every mod.

The following text appears.

Setup-Tob-Ex.exe: unknown option `--language`
Weidu (version 185: "dissertation draft done: 147 pages")
usage: WeiDU [options} BAF, BCS, D, DLG, TRA, TP, TP2-files

General Input Options

--game x - set main game directory to X
--nogame - do not load any defult game files
--search x - look in C for input files
--tlkin x - use X as Dialog.Tlk
--ftlkin X - use X as Dialogf.tlk
--tlkmerge x - merge x into loaded Dialog.tlk
--yes answer - all tp2 questions with `yes`
--uninstall - answer all TP2 questions with ýes´
--reinstall - reinstall all installed TP2 components
--ask-every - ask about every TP2 components

Press enter for more options



There are follow up questions to this and it asks for every single mod I downloaded. I went though all the mods just answering the first options but none of the mods installed correctly.

What I did.
Installed outside program files (had to change install.bat to recognize Baldur´s Gate 1´s position)
Patched games.
UAC is off
No virus program running.
No CD in disc driver.
Oh and I downloaded all the mods manually without Big world setup (but I used the links given through the program).



So what am I doing incorrect here? Thanks for assistance.

That's disastrously old WeiDU.exe ...
Why is this post here by the way, it should be in the Mega Mod Help forum.

The long story short, you failed at life. :P
I don't know how the BWS could have made such a horrible mistake, but to correct it, I suggest that you download the windows binary -archive from here, extract the Weidu.exe to the game directory and rename it as "Setup-Tob-Ex.exe" after you remove the original and then run the renamed file, it will update all the setup-*modname*.exe to the latest version.

Ah, thanks a lot, especially for the quick reply. However as I run the new verion the update seem to stop at "(setup--Tob-Ex.exe.debug) quaried (pid = -1". It hasn´t moved for about 15 minutes, I tried twice. Deleted the original file. So what am I doing wrong?

EDIT: No matter it seems to work now.

And sorry about the wrong category thing, noobs you know... huge thanks again.

No problems, occasionally I'm around to sweep up the mess. (In case anybody wonders why I'm so busy, click the link in my sig and find out where I'm spending my time). And don't let that Jarno scare you. He's been compelled to bring up the post count in the Mega Mod Help section, or Asmodeus will change him back into a larvae for 1001 years.
