Ascension: Only 40 of the 53 movies are in the movies box (I made sure to add them into the baldur.ini file). Most of the movies that do not are from baldur 1 and most of them are credits or logos or intros. (For instance, I can't get the infinity engine movie, or the credits)

Note: while it doesn't show up in the above paste, the lines in the 2DA file beggining with BEREGOST 19659 end with a box instead of a new line. The kind of box a word processor would use to represent an unknown character. (I'm using notepad.)

SOAINTRO=1 didn't do anything either. :/

hmmm... Where are the movie files stored?

Well, the reason that the ToB intro is listed twice is that Sam's list contains INTRO=1 twice. INTRO15F=1 doesn't seem to do anything. Also, INFELOGO=1 doesn't seem to do anything.

EDIT: Hmmm... ok. Sam's list contains 52 distinct movies. My movie list ingame contains 40. I seem to be missing the others.

Ok... something very weird is going on. I double checked this, so I don't think I'm making a mistake:

I noticed that you said that INTRO15F=1 was what enabled the SoA intro movie. The thing is, INTRO15F=1 was present in the ini file before I used Sam's movie list. I have a backup on my original Baldur.ini, and double checked to make sure. So, I reverted to my orginal Baldur.ini, and, sure enough, the movie disappeared from the list (even though INTRO15F=1 is present). I then went back to Sam's list to see if the movie would reappear. It did not. Instead, a second copy of the ToB intro appears where the SoA intro used to be. I played both copies, and they do both play the same movie. So, as of now, I can't play the movie through the movie list anymore. I'll see what else I can figure out.
