It's my again. Sorry, my bad. I've thought that I placed some useful information about my problem. So here's my Weidu. log and also my saved game with White and the "Man" who speaks nothing more than "No... please..." If you could take a look on it, I'll be glad. I've checked variable globals but the seemed to be alright, but maybe I'm wrong.

Oh, and one more thing. When he joined me, there're information about his special abilities, I believe. And first is: "White - Just leave: White."

Here are weidu and saved game:

Hi I really loved this mod, do you plan on getting this guy to Soa/ToB?

[Artemius I]

Hi, I'm having the same problem as CanWakhan, I get to the man in the Ulcaster Ruins but all he says is "No please...", is there a fix for this? White seems like an incredibly fun character, so I'll be disappointed if the mod ends so abruptly for me.

I'm not Lava but I'm familiar with the issue - it's a case of missing death variables and override scripts. Put the attached .tp2 file into your White mod folder and reinstall.

I am in the process of manually modding BGEE 2.3.67.3B with SoD and big World Fixpack.

 

While installing White v1.4  i got the following message from the "installation dialog box" :

 

In state 68, I expected one of these tokens:
  [10] AUTHOR

If someone knows anything about this ??? 

[jastey]

"AC_QUEST" is from Ascalon's Questpack. If the tagg "SUPPORT" is not known then it sounds as if the setup.exe is not a current one (v245) but a former version that didn't know the (newly added) tagg "SUPPORT".

 

I guess the Setup-White.exe is an older version (although I am surprised it doesn't auto-update with a newer setup.exe in your game folder).

 

You can easily fix this by taking a current weidu.exe (v245) and rename it to "Setup-White.exe" (replacing the older one) before running the installation of White.

Hi,

 

 thanks for the answer. 

 

For a BGEE game, the readme "says" to run : bgee_install_white_setup.bat (the steup_white.exe is for BGT edition). (As i uninstall everythink, i can't tell what version of weidu.exe was installed)

 

Nb : i though the last version of Weidu.exe was 246000 ??? I am quite lost but i learn

Well to be exact, the v246(00)... direct download link. But that might not mean the latest weidu.exe is not the solution... jastey, there might no be an official release topic, but the v246 is the latest.

Argh, sorry - yes, v246 is the latest WeiDU version.

EDIT: v245 would do the trick with regard to the SUPPORT tag, though.

Thanks,

 

As far as i know, usually the weidu thing is supposed to update itself to the last version available in the game folder. So i should just have to copy weidu.exe v246 in my game folder before starting installing any mod ? 

 

By the way, i have an annoying "bug" with the dialogue box : each time a new line of text is added, all the text is "scrolling over". Would you have any idea where does this come from ? 

[jastey]

I don't know about the text box bug, sorry.

My experience is that the weidu.exe (with this name) doesn't suffice, it has to be one of the mod-setup.exes for the auto-update to start.

[Mordekaie]

Ok i get it ; i have notice that each time i install a mode by running a setup-modname.exe, it is going to check every other setup-modname.exe Inside the game folder and is going  to update to the last version Inside the folder. I will try. Thanks a lot for your time and patience.

[Lava Del'Vortel]

(know that I am looking at this discussion from the shadows; also know that I am aware of this mod's state its need of an update. It will happen, but I also have to deal with some other projects and releases)

[Mordekaie]

Just to be clear :

 

The White archive contains :

- the usual folder

- an old version of WeiDU

- bgee_install_white_setup.bat

- setup-White.exe (to run BGT)

 

If i try to install this mod manually on BGEE/Windows system i should :

1/ unpack the mod archive in my game folder

2/ Delete the 3 files coming from the White archive (aka weidu.exe, bgee_install_white_setup.bat and setup-White.exe

3/ copy the last version of the weidu.exe file in my game folder and rename it : setup-white.exe

[jastey]

That should work, yes.

 

The (old) setup-White.exe inside the mod package is ok for White mod only, but it chokes on a game with more mods because e.g. the AC_QUEST.tp2 uses newer syntax.

All the .bat does is calling the weidu.exe (that's why that is there as well) for installation and specifying the game language to be English. It might be helpful if installing to a completely new EE game but in principle i's not needed to install the mod on a game.
