I don't know if you know this, but Sylmar Battlefield is not playable.

When we enter the area Zy1800 or cheat in there we get the following CTD:

baldur.err:

ASSERTION FAILED!
File: ChDimm.cpp
Line: 7641

Exp: pBiffHeader->dwFileType != mmioFOURCC('B', 'I', 'F', 'C')

Msg: d:\bgii - sva\cd4\DATA\AREA1800.BIF: attempted to use compressed 
BIF from CD, check free hard drive space
Run Debugger?

At first we thought that another mod corrupt this mod in a megamod, but as we tested it with BG2 only the CTD is still there...

Do you know, what is going on?

It seems this occurs very frequently. The only way I know currently to circumvent it is to have 1 member of the party jump to AR1800 using CLUAConsole:MoveToArea("AR1800")
Then use another party member to talk to Denaton, and the area will load properly.

A similar problem bugs me on BTL finale scenes, but it is not half as serious as this one.

This is a somewhat relevant post I feel... but I have not been able to solve the problem yet, sad to say.

Copy all the ambients that you use in your ARE into the override folder. (AM1800*.WAV)

White Agnus has corrected the TP2. The file is attached.
The changes are the following:

Lines 72 until 80 are new:

COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800A1.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800A1.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800A2.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800A2.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800D1.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800D1.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800D2.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800D2.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800D3.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800D3.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800D4.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800D4.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800D5.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800D5.wav~
COPY_EXISTING ~AM1800N.WAV~ ~override\ZY1800N.wav~

And the lines 61 until 64 are changed:

From:

COPY ~1Sylm\ARE\Zy1800~ ~override~

to:

COPY ~1Sylm\ARE\Zy1800\Zy1800.ARE~ ~override~
REPLACE_TEXTUALLY ~AM1800~ ~ZY1800~
COPY ~1Sylm\ARE\Zy1800\Zy1800HT.BMP~ ~override~
COPY ~1Sylm\ARE\Zy1800\Zy1800SR.BMP~ ~override~

It's actually not necessary to rename the ambients. Just make sure that they don't reside in an compressed biff.
