Hi. Now that I've finally figured out my account password, I can finally report this:
Clean install. Version 10.3.3 of the
BWP Installpack. Before I can even get started installing anything, every time I try and run the BiG World Install.bat, it says I'm missing these files from my
BG1 install right after I select a
BGT install vs.
BG2 only:
%BGO%ERROR01.wav
%BGO%ERROR02.wav
%BGO%ERROR03.wav
%BGO%ERROR04.wav
%BGO%ERROR05.wav
%BGO%ERROR06.wav
%BGO%ERROR07.wav
%BGO%ERROR08.wav
%BGO%ERROR09.wav
%BGO%ERROR10.wav
%BGO%ERROR11.wav
%BGO%ERROR12.wav
%BGO%ERROR13.wav
%BGO%ERROR14.wav
%BGO%ERROR15.wav
%BGO%ERROR16.wav
%BGO%ERROR17.wav
%BGO%ERROR18.wav
%BGO%INTRO01.wav
%BGO%INTRO01F.wav
%BGO%INTRO02.wav
%BGO%INTRO02F.wav
%BGO%INTRO03.wav
%BGO%INTROADD.wav
%BGO%TSCNA01.wav
%BGO%Tscna02.wav
(ignore the %BGO% - the lines were taken from some file called BG1_Check.bat that seemed to record my error or already knew the error beforehand)
Not sure what to do.
BG1+
TotSC+
TotSC Patch 5512.
BG2+
ToB+
ToB Patch 26498. No modifications. Overrides still exist and match patched versions, (had problems in the past where they would be randomly deleted sometime during the installation if I ever ran into an error - which is why I created backup overrides of the patched versions of the games). Characters folder exists, (though the actual files inside are deleted - if it doesn't exist, then you also get an error). Data/movies are in the default/right place in both installs, (as opposed to where I usually put them which breaks the installation). Cannot locate any of those files from the errors anywhere in either my
BG1 or
BG2 install. The DOS prompt tells me to locate them on the CD(s), but they're not there, and nor should they be unless they're in the default data files vs. an override, (why would the CDs/default install have an override?). I still even have the Baldur's Gate 2 directory named Baldurs Gate II, (vs. renaming it to Baldur
's Gate II. For some reason, both sets of my Baldur's Gate 2 installation disks omit apostrophes when installing so I have to rename them - very annoying as when I rename it to Baldur's Gate II, it'll mess up stuff sometimes). I even have it on a separate partition from my operating system, (so no C:\Program Files (x86)\ or whatever problems).
Anyone know what's up? I've reinstalled both
BG1 and
BG2 twice after my original installation and I still get the error. I, of course, deleted any remnants of the game directories after uninstalling.
P.S. and Off-Topic: Anyone else running into problems viewing avatars? Can't see a single person's...and haven't been able to for the past few days.
(edit) And without doing anything and trying again, now it says I'm missing the
TotSC 5512 patch, even though I'm absolutely one hundred percent certain I've installed it, especially since there's a file called readme_patch that says "
Tales of the Sword Coast", and, "Release Version 1.3.
5512". Have the original
BG1 5CD + 1 CD
TotSC, and the original 4 CD + 1 CD Throne of Bhaal disk sets.
