Hi,

 

I just made a fresh install of BG1&2 (GOG versions) to play with BGT on Debian Linux.

 

Here's the WeiDU.log of BG2:

The debug of BGT is really heavy (about 2.4 Mo) so I'll just copy the lines that could be related to my problem:

And so on. I get about 350 errors of this type.

 

Did I do something wrong?

 

Thank you for your help! :)

How exactly did you install it? With WeiDU v249 or v252?

Hi skellytz,

 

Thank you for your answer. I used WeiDU 251... hope I didn't mess it.

 

I tried another solution, installing Windows version of the games via Wine, and BGT now runs correctly: Candlekeep is loaded and I can play it.

 

But I can still make tries if necessary :)

See this issue related to WeiDU v251. BGT creates BIFF archives and should be installed with v249. I checked the Linux version some time ago, and it should work even using the native installer (with tolower or a case-insensitive method).

Thank you, that seems to explain why all AREA.bif files were ignored during the install :)

 

I'll give it a try when I can (now I'm managing my install with Wine so it takes some time).

 

Thank you again!
