Playing BG1 - none changed tactical install

Apon meeting the bandits in Larswood, and asking to join them. There is an enemy called "bugbear elite" in the bandit camp that is hostile to the party - making the entire camp go hostile.

 

 

There is also an "orc elite" that is hostile.

An old issue

1..You can either CTRL+Y quickly, before those guys alert the whole camp

or

2. you can add this block to the top of the following files (if they exist in your game)

 

Hobgobc.bcs

Banditcy.bcs

TWfights.bcs

 

IF
AreaCheck("ar1900") //depending on your game the area code for bandit camp may be this or ar8700 or bg1900
Global("DMWWRaemonAlarm","GLOBAL",0)
Global("DMWWbanditsalerted","GLOBAL",0)
!Dead("raemon")
GlobalGT("JoinedBandits","GLOBAL",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("DMWWRaemonAlarm","GLOBAL",0)
ChangeEnemyAlly(Myself,NEUTRAL)
END

 

or

3. Find and delete the block from ar1900.bcs that makes Hobgobc and Banditcy spawn - in this case you need to start the game from a Save before you ever entered the camp for the change to have effect.

Raiden, please try again after updating BWS - I've just made a small change in Install.au3.  If it still gives the same error, please paste your BWS\Config\User.ini in your reply (please use spoiler ] and [/spoiler ] tags around it).

[Bartimaeus]

In BWS itself, Generalized Biffing seems to be a little glitchy in advanced customization for the BGT installation using the minimal preset (and possibly for more setups beyond this, but this is the one I'm looking at). You can't seem to select the "just .wav/.tis/.bam" sub-option by itself - you can only select it while also having the "everything" option selected. I'm unsure which option it would default to, as a result.

Hey everyone,

 

I'm installing the Classic Adventures Mod 53 +53a through the BWP auto install.

I selected the recommended installation and haven't change any advance setting.

I followed all the first stapes, clean install + save. (vanilla game (SoA, ToB and patch))

I have all the new files in the BWP download folder and the auto install confirm the presence off all the files needed.

 

I have an issue during the installation :

 

##### Resource Fixer #####
The mod was not found.

 

I downloaded the Resource Fixer v1 myself in the Download folder.

But the auto install don't find it.

 

What should I do ? continue the installation without the Resource Fixer ?

[agb1]

I haven't ever tried installing CA through BWS (the CA install option was added to BWS before I joined the project).

The resource fixer is usually packaged these days as part of the Big World Fixpack. It's possible that at the time when CA was added tl BWS, the resource fixer was a separate download.

If you set BWS to "pause after downloads" and at that time manually extract the resource fixer into the game directory, that might satisfy BWS' mod presence test and allow the install to proceed.

How does BWS work ? because they are other conflict later in the install, about 5 mods preselected by the recommended auto-install are presented incompatible. Is it because the CA install wasn't update for a long time ? If I ignore all the incompatible mods, and continue the install, do you think that the game would run properly ?  Or should I just install the CA mod without BWP, and in this case, why is the CA install in BWP still present ?

[agb1]

BWS has compatibility "rules" listed in BWS\Config\CA\Game.ini that control which mods are shown to depend on or conflict with others. These rules must be updated manually.

BWS has installation order and default selections defined in BWS\Config\CA\Setup.txt -- details on the file format can be found in BWS\Docs\FAQ -- in particular, any lines with ;1111; are selected by default in the recommended compilation.

I don't know if ignoring conflicts will be enough. You are welcome to try. CA is still in BWS because no one has asked about it for a long time and we did not know it was not working until now. I will try to work on it next week.

Isn't BGGO for EET marked expert for BGT? It was developed for EE and backwards compatibility with non-EE is untested. From your error, it looks like it is not yet fully compatible. Specifically it can't find BG0100N, which I suspect is new to EE. You could drop that file into your override and retry if you have a copy of EE to extract it from; else you can install the old BGGO at that point instead.

Leokosta, thank you for the report. Please attach your BiG World Debug.7z from the BGEE folder. You can attach files in your reply on this forum by clicking the "more reply options" button below the reply box and then using the attach button on the expanded toolbar.

Probably? Customized install, though - I use the "minimal" preset because it has the least amount of selected so I can just select what I want.

 

I originally tried to use the old BGGO, but when trying to exit out of the advanced customization screen, it listed an incompatibility and instead told me to use the newer one. I may have screwed something up, though. Also, similar to Generalized Biffing, BWS has a selection glitch with the old BG(T)GO where it tries to select two contradictory sub-options of a component - namely, it tries to select "Remove the purple patches..." as well as the "Don't remove the purple patches...", plus the "Include the expanded Iron Throne rooftop area..." and the "Don't include the expanded Iron Throne rooftop area", and you can't fix it within the BWS interface.

[agb1]

I will look into those issues. Thanks for the reports!

[Bartimaeus]

FWIW, the old BG(T)GO seems to be working fine for installation. So I guess the EET version is simply NOT currently compatible as-is with BGT, as opposed to what it suggests.

On a side-note, the newest Item Revisions recommends that 1pp component 210 "Increased paperdoll object variety (core)" be installed AFTER the main Item Revisions component, with Smart Avatar & Armour Switching...but it's installed before it with most the rest of the components in BWS. I'm not sure why Item Revisions recommends this, but I imagine there's some sort of reason.

Thanks for answering. I made a recomended install aswell, and it looks all fine. On my tactical instalation, do you know which mod could cause the issue on the picture ? Thanks . I attached the big world debug.7z from my Tactical instalation.

BWS attempted to install "Tanar'ri Animation Fix" under "IA Content: Fixed Tanar'ri and Wyvern [EN]", but then told me that "this component is not compatible with [my] game". It suggests a missing dependency. However, reopening BWS, the component itself has no dependencies, but the overall mod seems to have a "mwyvmtan" dependency. I do not know what "mwyvmtan" is, and I can't find it in the list of mods even searching for just "wyv", but regardless, the component should probably have some sort of dependency check as to not install when not necessary. The Wyvern Animation Fix seemed to install just fine, though.

 

(edit): Wait, "mwyvtan" is the "Fixed Tanar'ri and Wyvern" mod itself. I am unsure under what conditions it is acceptable to install, then. The only dependency it lists is being installed with the base component and the "fix areas" component of Infinity Animations, but it clearly needs something else besides that.

 

(edit again): The "IA Moinesse Ninja Fix" mod also doesn't seem to have a proper dependency check - though BWS tried to also install this, it also told me that it's only necessary if I have both "Angelo" and Infinity Animations installed. I don't know what Angelo is, and I didn't tell BWS to ever install it.

The mod components are in the Infinity Animations mod itself(few MBs), but it needs to have the wyvern animation content(many MBs), aka the animation files extracted to the Infinity Animations folder... to install them. Otherwise, it to install that 6-8 MB combination, it would take 1.5 GBs space to store in a .rar package. See where this came from now ?

 

Never mind... it's actually it's own fix mod, that doesn't need the main IA mod at all.

 

The reason why the dependency is tricky is because this:

REQUIRE_PREDICATE (~ ee iwdee pst other ~ STRING_CONTAINS_REGEXP ~%tgam%~ = 1) @15 // This component is not compatible with your game

...

REQUIRE_PREDICATE (~%mtan%~ STRING_EQUAL ~yes~ = 1) @15 // This component is not compatible with your game

Don't necessarily make a lot of sense in the mods own .tp2 file. ...
