The subject says it all. I downloaded the latest Ascension for WeiDu and BiG World Install doesn't pick it up and doesn't install it. It is also not on the list of available mods. I don't get it. The documentation says that it should work. Anyway. I installed it on top of a fresh install before I ran BWI. I think I did the correct thing but I am not sure. It is fine that it isn't recognized but please make a note of it in the PDF and tell me when I should install it.
Thanks!

Well, the BWP today takes the BP's Ascension component and installs that. The BP's should be the more uptodate one today.
There might be a way to install the Ascension mod, but you need to commit to installing the eXpert setup in the BWS... PS that's the bug plague zone.
The Ascension mod is currently being revised to fit into the current moding scene... it will take it's sweat time, but it's been done. But until then... you are on your own without the BP.
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.

Damn. In that case, damn. I can't use BP because BP and SCS (IMHO a most excellent AI mod) really do not play nicely. Anyway, cheers. I appreciate it. Actually, do you happen to know if SCS installs much the same thing as Ascension? Oh yea, I tried doing an expert install. That was a huge mistake and never again. Actually, this is one of the few older mods I am really interested in. I tried a mess of others but they all managed to somehow crash my game, corrupt something, CTD, or just prevent all progression in some critical way. I am much more now in the school of tiny mods which don't change much and this looked really fun and perfect.

Erhm, you can install the BP 's Ascension without the AI component, and thus install the SCS's AI. Yes, the SCS is not optimized for that build... but the BP is this way closer to the original mod, while still getting some of the SCS's niceties.

Oh okay then. In that case, instead of trying to install Ascension (which also breaks quite a few other mods, I guess due to it modifying bgmain.exe) I will do a BWI with most of BP installed but in the bwi.bat select SCS as the AI component. Then, just modify it from there.
Thanks.
