So I was trying out the latest BiG World Setup, and keep hitting a wall at the same file despite several complete reinstalls of the BG series when it tries to run the SCS initialization component, required for all SCS stuff. This same file was also giving the Tweak Anthology trouble until I stopped trying to install the Magically Made Weapons Have Zero Weight component. In all the years I've been modding up BG series, never seen this particular type of error. Any input would be welcome.

....and for some reason the freakin' uploader won't let me upload BiG World Install Debug.txt, so if anyone needs data from it, lemme know and we'll figure something out. It keeps telling me 'No file was selected for upload', probably because it's taking so long to upload and timing out.

Thanks a bunch, I'll try those ideas - attempting to avoid Item Revisions because I don't particularly trust pre-releases due to the massive problems already plaguing even stable, tested builds in the BiG World Project. Will post if I find a working fix.

Seems the Tweak Anthology's Wear Multiple Protection Items component 2150+2151 are ALSO causing corruption to CDPP26.ITM - I didn't even HAVE the BG2 Tweak mod enabled for install, any of it - but enabling Item Revision's identical component to find the culprit showed I still had Tweak Anthology's component installing and causing issues.

Just as an aside - the BGT Tweak Pack seems to not have any Component 2150 - I believe you're referring to the BG2 Tweak Pack (Component 2150 - Wear Multiple Protection Items - P&P Restrictions). Just so others don't run into confusion like I did while searching for said component.

Confirmed - SCS has now installed correctly. Disabling the component Wear Multiple Protection Items in BG2 Tweak or Tweak Anthology and replacing it with the identical fix in Item Revisions avoids file corruption and allows SCS to install without trouble.

It's not remotely identical. IR doesn't allow amulets, rings or cloak of "+x" to be worn with each other, but with magical armor. Tweaks allows them to be worn together, but one can benefit from AC bonus from a single item while the others may provide only save bonuses.

Hi Jenavee:

 

About uploading BiG World Install Debug.txt.  I also have trouble uploading that file as I have at least 280 mods in my game.  My problem is that is is too large, even though it is <30 MB.  You should also have the file BiG World Install Debug.7z.  That uploads without problems for me.

You could understand that anyone can package a .txt file as a .zip and it's almost guaranteed to be 1/20th of it's original size if it large enough. Cause text is very simple to code in bit environment. But having it displayed takes a lot more space. Similar like a picture is worth a 10^x words.

Oh. Huh, thanks for that clarification - I'd assumed otherwise (silly me!) from what I'd been told by others. I'd have to say IR is definitely less cheesy, then. Too much cheese spoils the sammich, tis a truth.

FWIW, I think the "massive problems already plaguing even stable, tested builds in the BiG World Project are generally due to some mods (especially older ones that have not been kept up to date) have massive problem.

IR, on the other hand, even in its beta stage, is a wonderful mod and wonderfully stable and not at all like those other problematic ones. (IMHO!)
