Hello.

 

I've installed the Mega Mod (I honestly don't remember which one, I think either the tactic or the expert, as I've been playing BG for about... Well a long time now). I have finished BG1 with very minor bugs, nothing that would stop the game. In BGII, however, the game started crashing everytime I am waylaid by enemies in the city. The game shows the "Loading" screen, and I start to hear the "You have been waylaid by enemies and must defend yourself, when the game crashes.

 

I get this message:

ASSERTION FAILED! Return Address: 0x9FFB75 File: ChVidImage3d.cpp Line: 899 Expression: FALSE Message: CVidCell: :FXRender3dSetPalette: LoadFrame() Failed

 

This happens ONLY when I am attacked, other areas load just fine.

I have attempted to empty the temp folders and cache folders, as well as disabling 3D graphics as was suggested in another thread, but it didn't work. I have downloaded several fix files people posted and placed them in my override folder, but it didn't work.

 

Where can I find the log to post here?

 

Thanx a lot for your help!

 

Nimrod.

Very old BG2 knowledge.
1.08: [BGII/ToB] - ChVidmod3d.cpp at line 889/899
Error retrieving frame information from a BAM in 3D mode. This is most likely bad data. Try clearing out your "cache", "temp",and "tempsave" directories. Failing that, try reinstalling.
Now then, how did you disable the 3D graphics if I may ask ? And open the baldur.ini file in your game folder with Notepad and copy/paste the text to a post.

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
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.

I went to the configuration and disabled it, unchecked the V from the boxes in the 3D acceleration tab.

 

Here's the ini file:

Thanx a lot! This bug is annoying (like all bugs I suppose :P)
At first I'd simply reload and go again, hoping I won't be attacked this time, but now I'm always attacked when going to any district in the city, and it always crashes.
