Sadly, still getting

 

ERROR: Failure("resource [r#asmstff.itm] not found for 'COPY'")  --  from (1ppv4: Colourable Quarterstaves) and (1ppv4: Core updates and item patches)

 

even after the new download

 

Not sure if it's better to get the software from here, or the git hub page?

I haven't released a new version yet; I've only added the fixes to the mod's master branch on GitHub. The download page on the forums is still pointing to the previous version.

got the info out of git.  Thought I'd let ya know ... I only saw the change in 204_qsbase, but it also appears in 400_update_bgii_staves.tpa:    COPY_EXISTING ~r#asmstff.itm~ ~override~

Finished the 1pp install (except for avatar morph script, which happens latter)  DIddn't see any other issues (and I have almost every item mod in the manual installed), so looks like you're good :cheers:

 

Thanks for all the time and effort you put in to these things :)

I'm also doing a big BWP (almost full) installation and run into several problems but solved most of them.
Approximately 5 tries to solve and configure everything, but i'm still toying with the tweak mods to get everything perfect.
I'm gonna write a postmortem of the BWP installation in the following days with some suggestions.
As a freebi for something nice:
 
How to modify the annoying "quest updated" and "quest finished" sound.
The "quest update sound" functionality of the improved gui is nice, but the choice of sound is terrible and completely immersion breaking.
In order to solve it you can do the following.
 
1) Go to this youtube video 
2) Run the link through https://4kdownload.t...-wav-downloader and download it as a .wav file
3) Before installing the BG2 improved GUI mod you need to replace the files
bg2improvedgui\event_text\files\FOSLTART.wav 
bg2improvedgui\event_text\files\TADA.wav 
 
with the oblivion .wav (or any wav you want).
 
4) Run the BWP installation normally with this modification and enjoy
 
 
One problem that I run into (and I'm still trying to solve) is that I think not all the new animation helmets (and shields) are showing
 
If my memory is not wrong (and could be wrong) considering that I played with a BWP (almost) full installation almost a decade ago, all helmets (and shields) should be showing, the ones in bg1 and bg2. I remember the basic helmets with no small horns and the ones with horns. Also I remember seeing both versions of bucklers and medium shields in the same game.
But now in the part of BG1 only the first ones are showing.
 
I'm pretty sure that item revisions don't include all the new animations of 1ppv4
 
A potential solution with the installation order to include everything is discussed here.
https://www.gibberli...h-ippv4/page/2/
But I need to test it.

Double posting. Please edit your posts rather than posting consecutively in a very short period of time.

@ orion "I'm gonna write a postmortem of the BWP installation in the following days with some suggestions." PLEASE do this :clap: ... I need it .... and is need it (at least for those like me with no much knowledge in IE moding)

There is one problem that I'm not being able to solve (2 actually).

 

1) The Music for Keldorn Romance inside Vlad compilation is failing to install, some problem in a Keldorn .bcs file. Is weird because, does not matter what I fixed or changed it always fails to install. More weird that it says that "Music for Keldorn romance MUST BE INSTALLED for Tortured Souls". I don't know if is a "must be" or a "you must install it or it will break".

 

2) For some reason Khalid and Jaheira lose their voice sets and the subtitles are all garbage lines. In the case of Jaheira lines related to a character called Leina. The voice sets and subtitles of other npcs are completely okey. Most interesting the BWP pdf says the following:

 

Component 37 [Stats and Portraits of Viconia and Jaheira. BG1 Viconia and Jaheira can get their BG2 portraits and stats (by Vlad)]? [N]ot Install

This component will ruin Jaheria NPC in BG1/BGT. She will not have voiceover at all and her generic standard lines/commands are mismatched. Also this component will giver her ++ proficiency in crossbow which she can't use anyway plus ankheg armor which may seem overpowered for some

 

This is exactly the problem I'm having, and indeed Jaheira have an ankheg armor, except that the component 37 is nowhere being installed in the individual.bat. So there must be an error in the BWP pdf and another Vlad Compilation component is causing the error.

 

My guess is that, the problem is being caused by other component inside Vlad Compilation, OR, the problem is being caused because of the failed installation of the Keldorn Romance Music that is ruining something of the tortured souls installation.

I'm gonna try completely ignoring tortured souls, Leina NPC, Jaheira Priest of Silvanus component (I think this is the one causing troubles), and see what a happens.

Aside from that everything seems to be working, npcs are firing their banters correctly, I was able to reach Nashkel, the banters of Jaheira are okey, etc.
