I've updated to the most recent version of BWS. Everything extracts fine but I get these error messages in the first part of installing:


The following process could not be started:
Weidu.exe "Setup-WeiDU.tp2" --game "." --language 0 --force-install-list 0 --quick-log --log "Setup-WeiDU.Debug".
This may be caused by several reasons.

Any idea what is wrong? Thanks.

Put a weidu.exe in your dir and you should be set to go.

I got the same errors also as Liquidus when trying to install. I had setup the game and it worked fine with an earlier version but this one has that weidu error. I did try putting a weidu.exe into the main folder but ran into a setup crash later on. When it first realizes it's missing weidu it will crash and then when you try to run the setup again it crashed, I forget the second error message but think you still get the error messages and it still doesn't install.

I thought it was just me but it's not.

As said: Just copy WeiDU\WeiDU.exe to WeiDU.exe and you are set to go.
And the problem has been fixed.

Would it help if I uploaded a copy of WeiDU.exe in a static location?

The problem here was that there always was a WeiDU.exe in main-directory because Leonardo put a WeiDU.exe in the BiG World Install-pack. The BWS then replaced Setup-* files and the WeiDU.exe.
The pack still includes a WeiDU.exe, but it's in a sub-directory until the batch is called. Since I did not notice that, there was no file to be replaced and thus this minor issue occurred.

Static sounds good though. :)
I thought about increasing the counter to fetch new versions or looking for the old version at the usual place, but a static version would be a more solid solution.

Done. You can now always grab the latest stable version at http://www.weidu.org...ebigg/WeiDU.exe.
