Ok, I found two problems in the install batch file concerning language setting for two different mods.  The First one is in the DSotSC  in both the normal install and the expert, the second is in the Thalantyrs upgrade mode in both of the files.  

in the DSotSC section  of the English Bat file reads:

if exist Setup-DSotSC.exe	Setup-DSotSC.exe	--language	1	--skip-at-view	--force-install-list	0	 | %MTEE%

    This is for the Castillian Spanish language, not the English language.

It should read for the English language translation:

if exist Setup-DSotSC.exe	Setup-DSotSC.exe	--language	0	--skip-at-view	--force-install-list	0	 | %MTEE%

In the Thalantyrs Upgrade section, both batch files read:

if exist Setup-thalan.exe	Setup-thalan.exe	--language	1	--skip-at-view	--force-install-list	0	 | %MTEE%

This brings up the french translation, not the english.


For the English translation it should read:

if exist Setup-thalan.exe	Setup-thalan.exe	--language	2	--skip-at-view	--force-install-list	0	 | %MTEE%

I managed to catch the one for Thalantyr on my second install of the Big World setup but I missed the one for DSotSC.    I used both the Mid and End Biff.  I need to know if there is a way to change the Spanish language to the english language in DSotSC with out doing another install?  Or am I hosed?

I am assuming that I am hosed here. I will do another install, since I do not understand a word of spanish. Luckily for me, the addition of a Western Digital 800BB external 80 gig HD will mean that this install will only take about 12 to 13 hours instead of the normal 30+ that I would if I were not using the BigWorld BatchFile method. My thanks to all who worked on this project.

Wow 12 hours
Why don't you use that batch file. 3-4 hours and you're through!

Marvin, that is with the batch file. Before I started to use the BigWorld batchfile to install the megamod, it would take upwards of 36 hours off and on again. My system takes a long time to install the mega install, but it plays it just fine, very little lag.

Pent III 1 gigahertz 384 megs ram, 60 g9g main HD, secondary HD (Western Digital External) 80 gig, AGP Invidia 6900 Vid card with 256 megs of ram, Windog XP with the Page file set to a static 5 gig per drive.

Of course things will really fly when I get a job and can upgrade this 8 year old system to a P4 3.2 + gig system But that is for the future. First I need a job. Right now here in Chicago, jobs are almost as hard to find as an honest politician. I will continue to install and hope.

Oh, then good luck to you!

Don't buy vista if you're getting an outdated PC, you mean. I have both Vista, and an nVidia 8800 Ultra - both work perfectly with BG2. BG1 engine doesn't work without tweaking, but I figure you'd play with BGT or Tutu, so that doesn't matter.

Other then that clarification... best of luck to your job hunting, Devlinor. Hope you can afford a better PC soon.

Well, OK... so: Don't buy Vista and try to play BG with it, unless you are familiar with tweaking =)
Or don't buy Vista unless you know somebody who knows tweaking

Man, who cares! Just buy it
