Every time I try to initiate a conversation with someone, the game crashes. It might be other factors, but I haven't gotten far enough to check as this is a very dialog heavy game.

I have the newest versions of all the big mods, fix patch, tweak patch, widescreen mod, UB mod and this one. Everything works fine with the other mods, this is the one causing my problems. Tried different resolutions, but nothing works.

Halp!

I am using the 2cd version btw

edit: well, if someone could at least answer me this, does the mod require me to start a new save game?

Yes, (as i explicitly mention in the readme) you need to start a new game.

Damn, so either I start now without the mod, or I wait for a fix. How there can be an error with a file that doesn't exist beats me. No clue what could be wrong?

[ghostdog]

Ok maybe there has been a misunderstanding. Did you start a new game when you installed the widescreen mod + my UI, or did you continue from an old save? You must always start a new game after installing the widescreen mod and this applies even if you decide to change resolution mid-game.

(As for the assertion errors in Torment, they're always like that, they don't point to actual files.)

I started a new game with the widescreen mod. I can't find a error log to update, but I'll keep looking.

I'm also running the 2CD version, and running all the mods that Scully specified. I suspect that we were both following the guide provided here: http://thunderpeel20...lly-modded.html

The game is currently running under 1600x900 resolution(my monitor's maximum resolution)thanks to the Widescreen mod. Anyway, the problem does seem to lie with Ghostdog's PS:T UI mod in particular, as uninstalling it seems to fix things. Unfortunately, that method robs me off the enhancements that this mod provides. I'm also using Windows XP.

You could give a try to the following fix. Some people with the 2CD version have said that it helped them with crashes. You'll need a hex editor to open Torment.exe and replace the lines, be sure to replace all lines as they appear multiple times :

I can't guarantee if this won't mess up the area or area map but you can patch these bytes to prevent the crash. I tested the patches with a saved game that would crash on entering Mebbeth's hut and it seems ok. This is basically disabling the error checking for sizes that exceed the limit. Use something like Hex Workshop to do a hex search and then replace the values in bold. You might want to make a backup of file before doing this. Also, these patterns will work on either 2/4 CD versions of exe.

search: 83 C1 07 3B C1 76 14
replace: 83 C1 07 3B C1 EB 14

search: 83 7D 0C 00 77 14
replace: 83 7D 0C 00 EB 14

Apart from that, I'm not sure what other solution I could offer, except for suggesting a new clean install of the game and when you're installing the mods leave the widescreen mod + my UI for last, in the installtion order.

Hmm, various problems have emerged with people running GOGversion+Win764. The antivirus maybe causing some problem. Disable it and try again. If this doesn't work, try changing the resolution to 1024x768 and see if that helps. To do this : uninstall my UI, uninstall the widescreen mod and then re-install at 1024x768 (you could also try 1280x1024).

I had problem with my 2CD version with same error and check this link how I solved it.

Maybe it helps you.

So it always crashes in the first room of the game?

Try this:

Delete all files from cache folder and temp folder.
Copy just "AR0202.bif" (22MB) in cache folder and start game.

Sorry to necro this post, but I also seem to be having the same 1124 error after installing the game, installing the widescreen mod, installing the Ghostdog UI, and then starting a new game. The skull comes over then crashes. I installed it not in the Program Files, but in its own folder on my C Drive. I have Windows 7 Pro 32 Bit.

Have you tried to remove the "cache", "tempsave" and "temp" folders from the game folder before starting the game ?
