Greetings everybody.
I recently discovered Big World Setup and first I want to thank all the people who have worked on the project.
I want to share on this forum what is my experience so far. I will list some little issues I have found. To start, I must clarify that I'm using the software whose name is "BigWorldSetup-bigworldsetup-8798ee71cd3d.zip", found here: https://bitbucket.or...ranch-downloads (Branches -> EET). At the moment it is the most recent version uploaded.
1) Ascalons Questpack and Jarls BGT Adventure Pack, altough marked with "[EN]" and installed with English selected, are in German. I found out when I started meeting German speaking bunches of NPCs
2) The Item Randomiser mod asks to input, during the install procedure, the percentage of items not to be randomised, pausing the install process. Letting the user input this value while chosing components would avoid this.
3) If you select "Portraits for Tower of Deception", this component will not be installed. This is what you get:
You haven't installed ToD, skip this component
Portraits for Tower of Deception (BGT NPC Portraits) was skipped.
That is not true, in fact I *did* install ToD.
4) The great mystery: Widescreen Mod no longer installing. Tonight, after my final installation, I was ready to start the big game. I noticed in dismay that for some unknown reason, the chosen resolution had not been applied. I opened setup-widescreen.exe just to get this error message:
Please run this program in your Infinity Engine game directory.
FATAL ERROR: Failure("Not a game directory")
I checked the debug log and I read this:
##### Widescreen Mod #####
### 0000: Widescreen Mod -> for the original Infinity Engine (CHOOSE THIS!): Widescreen Mod ###

C:\BWP\BGII - SoA>The following originally selected mods could not be installed:

Component: Portraits for Tower of Deception
My log file ends here. You see? There is no "SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED" for Widescreen Mod. This is a mystery. I did another install, and the same thing happened. This time, however, running setup-widescreen.exe allowed me to properly set the resolution. I hope this hasn't screwed anything. I think not, because no relevant mod was installed after Widescreen mod, but could you reassure me? I wouldn't want to discover problems later on.
5) Almost forgetting. Every time I quit the game, I get this:

Messages are in Italian, but as you can see it's the classic APPCRASH event window. This error seems to have no effect.
I'm attaching the install debug file and my mod selection.
Thank you!
