Fresh install of the original BG/TOSC/SOA/TOB game on a dedicated 50GB partition, selected english, standard ...

So let's assume you installed the BG1 and BG2 in different folders, yeah. The thing is, there's other selections in the currently up to date BWS you can retrieve from here, than just do not fit into that description: I am talking about this selection:

Ninjaed, twice. Or just ones. Hmm. dabus you monster.

Hey friends =)   I've been away from the Baldur's Gate scene for awhile but recently came back to it. I noticed that the mod for BG1EE that restored the original cutscenes is no longer available in the BWS. Was there a reason it was removed? I kinda preferred them over the EE ones.

 

EDIT: Nvm. Question answered.

Hello!
Could I ask some questions?
1. Where can I find the latest version of BWS?
2. When I installing the first time the BWS showed me incomprehensible letters. I thougt that it was the problem with coding, so I tried to change it in notepad++ but it didn't work. Has anybody ever faced problems like that?
For example:
"Copying and patching 4936 files ...

Here's the link. That will always take you to the latest archive file.
You could try and change the languages in selection screen to select only English mods, it should help, but I can't say for sure it will work.

Thank you! And the One Drizzt is included?

I have added support for several mods in my local copy of BWS. I am working out some kinks with EET too.

bg1aerie (aerie in bg:ee)
Might and Guile 1.3.1
NPC_EE 1.3
Faiths and Powers 0.2.1 beta
Item Rev v4 beta
Spell Rev v4 beta
BWP Fixpack

I will submit these to the BWS project soon.

[Creepin]

I have added support for ... BWP Fixpack

Wasn't it supported since forever?

[agb1]

What I meant was that BWS hasn't been applying the BWP Fixpack for BG2EE installs.  And with EET, it's even more complicated because we want to run it twice in two different places; first for the BGEE mods before EET conversion and then again for BG2EE mods before we start installing them after EET.

I see, thanks!

Currently having an issue with the Divine Remix mod. Specifically getting the 'Nightcloak of Shar Kit for Viconia' component to work. Tried it on two separate installs. First one she ended up as a Holy Strategist of the Red Knight, and in the second (current) install she's a Battleguard of Tempus.
 
Here's my WeiDU, debug, etc. If anyone could help me identify the problem I'd really appreciate it!

@Subtledoctor (author of the NPC_EE mod) has mentioned that the Divine Remix components that change kits need updating. He added components to the NPC_EE mod that do the same thing as the Divine Remix kit change components, so you can use his mod to apply those kits correctly. It is available from Github and can be installed manually at the end of your current installation.

@agb1 Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Erhm, though I am not a Russian expert.. ha ha ha, see the joke is I can't even understand one word of the text, erhm forum freak out, sorry for quoting in picture:
But this:

And the very end of the agb1's changes, the squarer ??? become something completely different:

It could be the german codepage agb1 is using or ... or I have no single idea. See, I am not a Russian.
And not understanding the whole page completely, as not being a diff tool myself ... ... the lines has probably been fixed already.

@ALIEN: Yes, we'll try to appreciate everything agb1 does... and all the new contributors.
Where do we pick these people up, I have no idea, but it's great all the same.

That's unlikely simply because the red has what's supposed to likely be Cyrillic, but it's not there in the green. Aka it's completely coded differently in the green, which is the alarming factor !

If you also note, the German gain the umlaut form of the 'u' from one of the question marks... ü ... leading to the conclusion that agb1 is using the German codepage alone, and from what I understand from the .tra-fication, that's actually the incorrect way.

I have been using Bitbucket's online interface to modify files.  Sometimes I see Cyrillic characters there  sometimes I see strange symbols.  Because I sometimes see Cyrillic correctly, I am not sure if the problem is on my end or if actually some of the RU translations in the files I am copy-pasting were not correct before I got there (example:  p5tweaks.ini).  I will try to be more careful going forward about overwriting RU translation lines in existing files.

Two new pull requests pending BWS merge:

 

- Fix PaintBG for EE installation (used Windows CMD scripting to append new portraits to bgee.sql so they are selectable when creating a new character)

 

- Add Klatu Fixes and Tweaks

[agb1]

Thanks for the advice.  I will try SourceTree.

 

Also, just submitted update to BWS for Might and Guile v1.4.1.
