but it is all it writes, and nothing more.. meaning it (or I?) won't work?

Have you installed the Widescreen mod? If yes, you need to remove all the setup-*modname*.exe's that's size is exactly 3,909Kb from the game directory.


nope, didn't install that.

It is WeiDU checking for updates, afaik. It isn't related to the code and shouldn't mean anything extraordinary should occur. :)

That would be really painful, since I can foresee there're a bunch of new armors, with names different from chain**, leat***, plat***.

If reinstalling is not an option, then this should do the trick

BACKUP ~No movement penalties~
AUTHOR ~Spellhold Studios~
BEGIN ~Remove movement penalties from armors~
COPY_EXISTING_REGEXP GLOB ~.*\.itm~ ~override~
  READ_SHORT 0x1c type
  PATCH_IF type=2 BEGIN
	READ_LONG 0x6a eff_off
	READ_SHORT 0x70 eff_num
	FOR (i=0;i<eff_num;i+=1) BEGIN
	  READ_SHORT (eff_off+i*0x30) opcode
	  READ_LONG (eff_off+i*0x30+0x4) value
	  PATCH_IF (opcode=126 OR opcode=176) AND (value < 0) BEGIN
		WRITE_LONG (eff_off+i*0x30+0x4) 0
	  END
	END
  END
BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_CHANGES

The usage is simple, put the code into .txt file and save as setup-no_movement_penalties.tp2. Then make a copy of weidu and rename into setup-no_movement_penalties.exe. Install.



what does this mean?

Do I have to run the entire batch, which will take those 8+ hours? or?

Yes. Unless you have managed by some miracle to have a backup from the files before the IR installation.


IR? Item Revision... nvm

I installed a Mega-mod installation (70% of all)... I wonder if it is possible to remove "movement rate penalty", you get from larger body armors?

It's comes from the Item Revision... just edit the BiG World Install.bat not to use the component and that's it, you edit with Notepad.
Uninstalling it won't probably work cause you have way too many mods on the way, so bad things are bout happen when you uninstall them.

So you just replace this line:
%IFS%item_rev%S%item_rev%L%0%SK% 3 7 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 --logapp | %M%
With this:
%IFS%item_rev%S%item_rev%L%0%SK% 3 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 --logapp | %M%

Or you could use this:
%IFS%item_rev%S%item_rev%L%0%SK% 3 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 --logapp | %M%


PS: All this info can be read from the manual, so I would suggest to read it.
