Hello Konmaril,

Can you give the area numbers that you are traveling to when the game CTD? Also what area are you traveling from?

That will give the worldmap modders an idea as to what might be going wrong.


Your game doesn't crash starting a new game correct?

Can replicate by using the following operations: install any mod, install worldmap, install gen_biff, uninstall mod A. Solution:

In general, using AT_*_EXIT is deprecated and should be substituted with AT_NOW. The file is uncompressed to the mod folder and then copied to the override to allow the standard WeiDU uninstall routine to restore the pre-worldmap version of worldmap.mos. The sum of these two tweaks allows the worldmap to work along stack operations (such as the above).

While I was there, I removed the creation of weidu.exe (which is unused and would break my leet C:\bin setup) and of the chitin and dialog files (the chitin is not even modified, and who cares about restoring the dialog.tlk?).

Whoa? This is news, and probably for a lot of mods.

In a vaguely-related subject, why doesn't WeiDU have functions like MOVE, DELETE, RENAME, etc.? Did someone think it'd be a bad idea or something? It's not like mass-overwriting files in the override doesn't do even more damage. But I'd be able to use far fewer batch files if it did have such functions.

Well, it was not really an issue until you had stack-friendly biffing (gen_biff) - before that, it was better, but only academically so.

I've always opposed those functions because of backup issues. In the greatest face turn ever, MOVE was added for 213 (RENAME is equivalent of MOVE, and DELETE won't likely be added because of backup reasons).

Got the same error after some manipulations with BWP install.
What was done: I had had overlooked some unwanted components of Item Revisions and had to uninstall them. What do I do then:
- open weidu.log to see installation order. Item Revisions is almost at the end of installation (in my case followed by PnP Freeaction, aTweaks, BP-Balancer, Celestiales, BP-BGT Worldmap, BGT Music, GUI, Crefixer, Generalised Biffing and ToB Hacks. Suppose reinstallation won't take long.
- launch setup-tob_hacks -> Uninstall //it wasn't neccessary actualy, but i did it just in case
- launch setup-generalized_biffing.exe -> Uninstall ///that's a mandatory step, because mods won't find files needed for un- or reinstallation if they are biffed
- launch setup-item_rev.exe:
skip components that are not installed
ask about each component that is installed and uninstall unwanted ones. for this weidu automatically uninstalls everything that was installed afterwards. ok
for the rest of installed components of IR: no change. They are reinstalled automatically. After the last component of IR all other mods are reinstalled again. fine
- install gen_biff again
- install tob_hacks again
Then I open my save and everything's fine there - all unwanted changes of IR are gone. But when I try moving to another location - bam! The assertion error crashed the game to desktop. Not a good thing...
Some Google search results in several topics related to the problem.

No worries, this error is often due to something funny happening with the world map mod.

Others say that reinstalling might help. Thank gods, that reassures.
This time I just unbiff and reinstall worldmap, everything goes right. Perform a check - problem solved. Biff again and enjoy the play
