Hi all,

dunnow if someone else did notice this, it happens just before the end of my installation for SoB v205 for WorldMap6. Here you find last part of installation:

.......\override\BH2301.are
.......\override\BHAERD25.dlg
The system cannot find the file specified
The system cannot find the file specified

<< this happens near 30 times >>

data\BH-TIS.bif will contain bla bla bla ...
...
...
ERROR: unknown resource extension [BAF]
[data\BH-REST.bif] will contain 1152 resources totalling 123570195 bytes
key saved (283 biffs, 54405 resources)
Press any key to continue ...

Like you can see the installation finishes ... but there is an error just before it happens, what could cause it? Something related with biffing process? I hope it won't hurt the game (my guess in "no", but i'm not a modder of course )

Thanks,

If you right-click - "edit" - the BHAreas.bat file so you can see everything King Diamond included in the biffing utility, you'll see a bunch of .are, .bcs, & .dlg files (24 of them to be exact) the utility is looking for, but they are not in the override directory for it to move. You get that error about not finding the file because they aren't there. It looks like those files are all associated with a TuTu install. As long as those files the .bat is looking for aren't needed for Bonehill WM6 (BGT install) version to work, then there shouldn't be a problem.

The BAF error is because [move override\BH*.* BH-REST] command from the BHAreas.bat moved the BHBALDUR.BAF file to the BH-REST directory along with the rest of the files that start with BH. When WeiDU biffed up the BH-REST directory, it didn't recognize .baf as a valid file extension. Nothing to worry about. BHBALDUR.BAF got biffed instead of deleted like in the SoBHv2.02 version.

I had added the Tutu files. KD built this biffer based solely on the BGT version. I was thinking of making it "pretty" by doing some IF File Exists type of stuff but decided against it. If someone else has that kind of time on their hands, go for it.

One moment...what is SoB205 for World Map 6 ? And where do I download it from ? I have downloaded the World Map 6.3 released by weigo and now I wonder if it's not enough to just install Secret of Bonehill 2.02 full ?

By the way, WeiDu 195 reports a high numbers of typos during installation but I guess you guys already know this...

I'll let you know how mine goes too. I played with the BAFS a bit to add some spawns

Download link is incorporated into the mega-installation instruction, and the SHS download link is listed in the 1st post of that thread. I don't know if SBB is providing support for it yet or not, as he'll probably pin the download at the top of this forum when he does.

[Sir BillyBob]

Actually I just forgot. I did post a message for DS/NT but didn't for this one. Glad you all found it anyway.
