Hi there,

 

Just a small question: I did a BWS install yesterday and everything completed perfectly except for one error, I paste the specific part in the log here:

Everything else installed perfectly. Any idea what might cause this and how to fix it? It seems it cannot find the viconi.cre file to copy (some other mod moved it or renamed it perhaps)? I can post my selection list as well if you require it.
 
Thank you.

Search for VICONI.CRE in your BGII folder and make not of which mods' backup folders have that file in them - if some mod deleted the file, this will narrow down the culprit from the 200+ mods you probably have installed :lol:

I actually don't have that many mods installed (Recommended BWP, with like 4 or so extra mods added, no BIG mods, etc.). I see that BG1NPC, BG2Tweaks, LostItems, spell_rev and stratagems have that file backed up...so one of them is the culprit? Wonder what the issue can be. Anyone else have had this issue perhaps?

It's actually more like coincidence tha... as if we take from your answer that you don't have the BGT-weidu installed to your megamod, the fact that the "VICONI.CRE" is missing easily explainable, the base BG2 game has "VICONI6.CRE", "VICONI8.CRE"... "VICONI16.CRE", but no plain "VICONI.CRE"'s at all.

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.

Hi Imp; I attach my Weidu log with a list of mods installed. I do have BGT...I don't quite understand what you mean; are you saying that the error occurs because it is a BGT installation and viconi.cre is not used as 'base'? Also, that one component not installed is probably not that important right? I mean doesn't lolfixer and other stuff in any case fix innate ability problems, etc.?

Any help would be appreciated. I am playing through this one now and no problems so far. Otherwise I guess I will just try to brute force determine where the problem is, just re-install over and over again adding a few mods at a time to test. Thank you in advance.
