Hi

I'm getting an error when trying to install the BWPsetup :The ''Baldur's Gate II"folder you entered does not contain a full installation.At least the file CD5\Movie\25movies.bif is missing.Copy it from you CD\DVD if you did a full instalation.If not, do a new BG2 install.

Problem is that I have a full instalation and that file is in the movies directory.Paths in the baldur.ini seem to be ok(but I might be wrong, I'm new to all this).I wouldn't be able to copy that file(or files)anyway becouse I have a dvd saga edition, where there are basicly 3 files on that dvd(Setup-1.bin, setup-2.bin and setup.exe).

What is the problem???

thanks for the help

Edit BiG World Setup\Includes\16_Testing.au3, line 359 from
If Not FileExists($BG2AliasDir & 'Movies\25movies.bif') Then $Error&=_GetTR($Message, 'L3')&@CRLF
to
If Not FileExists($BG2AliasDir & 'Movies\25movies.bif') Then $Hint&=_GetTR($Message, 'L3')&@CRLF
This will still display the message, but as a warning and not as an error, so you can skip that.

Oh, by the way: The value of the CD5-key under the [Alias]-section should look like
ENTERMYPATHHERE\CD5\
. Do you have a trailing backslash?

Hello everyone and I am sorry if this is a brainless question.... But I have the same problem and I cannot figure out how to edit the file mentioned...I found the Big World Setup file of course.. but it is an excecutable file and I cant figure out how to edit it. Unless there is a file somewhere else that is supposed to be edited but I searched and didnt seem to be able to find anything. Any and all help is appreciated of course. Thanks.

Edit like in editor (of your choice) like notepad/wordpad/or whatever you want to edit plain textfiles.

Figured it out after awhile. Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know where the sewers are perchance? the sewers on that island for the quest with the mod that I cannot for the life of me remember the name of so that I can look it up for myself..... The quest where the guy teleports you to their island directly after speaking to you to start the quest and you have to clean up the rats, bandits, bonehill keep (which looked like a copy of nalia's parents castle) and at the end they force you to figure out the theft of some black pearl but the guy seems to be in the nonexistent sewers....I have been backtracking and looking for an entire day and my frustration is getting up there..west side of town, west side of town!!. can anyone help me out? I realize this is a stretch of topic but if anyone has a quick pointer of where I should go to get out of this nightmare of a mod... I dont want to start my game from scratch. Well, thanks all.

... Eh heheheheheh. The Secrets of the Bone Hill, is the mods name. The place you mean is the one you get by exiting one of the maps due North at the right hand side of the map, if you go from the left side you end up in the world map. If my memory serves, it's near the Church/Temple(which looks like the Temple of Beregost), which should be on the West side of the major town.

PS: the area code is one of these... so you can then go back to the entrance area to find the exact location:

"BH0100" SoBH
"BH0200" SoBH
"BH0300" SoBH
"BH0302" SoBH
"BH0400" SoBH
"BH0401" SoBH
"BH0402" SoBH
"BH0403" SoBH
"BH0500" SoBH
"BH0507" SoBH
"BH0600" SoBH
"BH0700" SoBH
"BH1000" SoBH
"BH1004" SoBH
"BH1100" SoBH
"BH1101" SoBH
"BH1200" SoBH
"BH1300" SoBH
