The problem is that this mods is not detected during the installation while they are in the file

;;;;;;

 

=> bg1ub_v13-2_140924.zip ( I do not find that one , I have bg1ub_v13-2_141026)

=> bg2fixpack-v10.exe 

=> bg2_tweaks-v16.exe 

 

What is the solution?

What is the solution?

A, provide manually.

Or B, wait for the situation to stabilize and the BWS update that gives a proper link to and from the forums own link.

 

Evidence, from g3 forum:

Until we get the subdomain issues sorted, you'll need to manually follow the 'Download' link on the forum and drill down. BG2 Tweaks is here:

OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Files are present in my file "BiG World Downloads "  but BWS does not find them. Is it possible to force the installation? So that BWS installs them all the same? ( sorry google traduction)

Hello guys. 

 

Leonardo Watson says in his tutorial that some of the mods have to be installed in two steps.

My question is: Does BWS install those mods in two steps as required, or do I have to install those mods manually somehow?

@Karnstein: *cough* Provide as imp said and it's written in the help-text on the right side...
You will be asked if you want the BWS to run the download for the missing files again (useful if you had a connection problem) or provide them. Providing files can be done by initiating a download with your default web browser. You don't have to know the link, the "BiG World Setup" will open it for you to guide you through this process.
Your other choice is to select the file, which will open a file-selection-dialog. Browse your disk for the appropriate file and select it. You may also use this to force the BWS to use a file with a name or size that differs from the expected values.
When the question pops up, select to provide the mod by selecting a file on your computer.
Some files could not be downloaded with the "BiG World Setup". Do you want the BWS to try to load the mods again, provide the files yourself (see remarks) or just continue?
Enter [r]etry, [p]rovide or [c]ontinue.
Enter [d]ownload, [s]elect, skip [o]ne or [a]ll missing files.

@Thug: It's splitted.

Yes.

Look at the weidu.log file at the end of the install, all the info is there to be read.

@Karnstein: Thanks.

Heck, it's me again.-)

 

The current BWS version doesn't see "the one Drizzt" v1.41 mod. Can I install this one manually after my BWS installation? Or is there another way to fix it?

It's in the BWS, but the line / entry in the select.txt was changed from std to ann. So if you edit the file, search the entry and switch it back, you're set.
But the install-batch from BWP says currently not compatible with DrizztSaga v3, so I wouldn't do it.

Someone really needs to update the Mod.ini.  Here is the most recent one (self-modified) which worked for me.  Attached File  Mod.zip   37.04K   221 downloads

Contact either quiet or alien. I think there are no more guys with access (I declined because I really don't like updating configs all year long).

What new things did you add in that mod.ini?


Low hung brow, dazed look on your face..... It appears that you are correct, my friend. You are indeed a complete imbecile.

You can diff that with tools like the WinMerge.

I ran into this bug when trying to install BWP using BWS:

I searched around for similar issues but I didn't find anything that I understood. Any clues as to what's happening here? I've attached the .DEBUG file.

Was Gloran component 0 installed? If not, then that should be the reason. Try to install Glorans component 0 manually and resume.
And make sure that the English translation is in the gloran\tra-folder. If it's not in there, use the English BiG World textpack and let it insert the language.

Edit: I'd say you need component 0 after looking at the debug-file. Just execute setup-gloran.exe in your BG2-folder and let it install gloran but skip Gloran & Virtue. Then let the BWS try to resume / install the component.

I modified BG1 UB to point to the latest UB, also Chantelame, and Sword Coast Stratagems.

I fixed the G3 URLs.

Ah ok thanks for looking into that dabus. I think you are correct.

Installer can't seem to be able to download a lot of mods, especially from G3 page.
