Hi all,

Let me start with stating how awesome I find TBW. I am amazed by and most appreciative of all the hard work behind it. It is easily one of the very best modding community achievements that I have seen and an extremely enjoyable improvement over BG I+II and great playing experience (I am using Standard install with Widescreen mod installed via TBW checkboxes as the only tweak).

Now, to my problem :whistling:

Upon accepting the dialogue option to start the quest from the mage Shandalar, in Ulgoth's Beard, I barely have the time to see the loading screen (for what I understand from walkthroughs woud be area 1008) for about 1 sec max before the game crashes. I can here the sound of an error message popup but not see it. BGmain.exe is still opened but appears as a large black rectangle over my desktop and is un responsive, leaving me with the only option to kill the task.

Now, having read the recommendations, I emptied the cache, temp and tempsave but to no avail.
Then I thought that if I was missing a creature file (I read here that crashes at the beginning of area loading are often related to that), it would maybe facilitate finding out the issue for one of you if I provided a list of the files that appear in Temp upon trying to load Ar1008. So I saved right before entring the area, emptied the cache, loaded the saved game and relaunched the dialogue...loading screen...CTD.

I add the resulting list of files in my Temp to the WeiDU.log, BiG World Debug.txt, baldur.log and baldur.err in the attached Rar file (note that I doubt that the err log repeated many times in baldur.err related to my current CTD problem for various reasons, such as that I only reproduced that CTD about 5 times as compared to the many occrrences in the log).

Thanks in advance :)

Easy, try google with this and you find that the "faster bears" v14 is the problem... and how to solve it...

ASSERTION FAILED!
File: CGameEffect.cpp
Line: 2631
Exp: FALSE
Msg: no msg.
Run Debugger?

~SCSII/SETUP-SCSII.TP2~ #0 #3530 // Faster Bears: v14


But anyway, welcome to the board... :D

Great!
Following the instructions related to Faster Bears v14 in the link that you provided did solve my problem.
Next time I will think of googling results from Baldur.err first :doh:

Now rushing back to explore this 'somewhere far north' area :)

Thanks a lot!
