Doh.  Whenever I try to run any of the setup programs for Baldurdash, SoS, TDD or TS I'm getting a nasty error that states

ERROR:  BIFF [./data/CBSOS_2DA.bif] cannot be loaded:  Unix.Unix_error(20, "stat", "./data/CBSOS_2DA.bif")

I'm not sure what BIFF is supposed to be doing but apparently mine isn't working

Has anyone seen this before?  I'm going to do a google search and see what I come up with, but I thought I'd try here, since here is most likely where the answer lies.

Any responses are appreciated!

Mostly what I wanted to get installed were the current versions of the 'Big 3': Sos, TDD and TS.  To be honest, I don't even know what RoT or CtB stand for.  The BP Mega install directions call for them and I've downloaded them, so I'm inclined to install them, but I'm wondering if not having Balder's Gate 1 or Tales of the Sword Coast installed impact them?  Also, Does Neverending Journey for BP require BG1 or TSC?  I've been doing searches to see if I can find the Mods that only need BG2 and ToB as opposed to requiring BG1 or TSC but I haven't had a tremendous amount of luck as of yet.

Somehow I've managed threadjack my own thread.....but this information is certainly more interesting than just talking about Arcane spell lists!

Thanks

Thanks much for the link....I'm reading through the BP_Mega_Install_Instructions now.  My only fear so far is that the first two steps tell me to install BG1 and Tales of the Sword Coast, neither of which I own anymore.  Is it possible to proceed with the BP Mega Install instructions if I only have BG2 and ToB installed?

Again, thanks for the replies

Sigh....I suppose you are right.

I don't suppose upgrading is as easy as downloading v177 and running the install?  I have a feeling that there is more involved, given that I'm coming from v161....
