Game Crash @ Appearance

10 April 2008 - 11:14 AM

Hello all,

I am eagerly awaiting my first ever run through of a Tutu BG1 game. However, I am first needing to get a nice stable install with mods included. 1PP is a mod I'd very much like to have on my game but I am having an issue with this particular mod. I have read the associated documentation on 1PP, and have searched some of the community forums for someone with a similar problem, but no such luck yet. The basic error I am having is a total game crash at the Appearance selection on the Character Generation screen. Here are some particulars to my situation:

Platform: Mac OS 10.5.2 on a PowerBook G4 1.33(PPC).
Game: BG+TSC, BG2+TB (full installs, patched)
Install type: MacEasyTutu
Install order: G3
WeiDU version used: 205

Unfortunately, I do not have acces to my WeiDU log atm, so...

Present Location in Install-
Tutufix v17 (Mac)
EasyTutu NPC Kits (Mac)
EasyTutu Spawn Randomizer (Mac)
Ashes of Embers v27 (PC converted)
Herbs & Potions Add-In (PC converted)
Song & Silence v2 (Mac)
Rogue Rebalancing v3.9 (PC converted)
Vedran's Lost Items (PC converted)
iiItem Mod v5 (PC converted)
BG Mini-Quests & Encounters v1 (Mac)
Grey Clan Episode (PC converted)
Sirine's Call v7 (PC converted)
Stone of Askavar (PC converted)
BG1UB v6 (Mac - skipped conflicts)
BG1 NPC Project v15 (Mac)
BG1 Music Pack v4 (Mac)
Xan's BG1 Friendship Talks v4 (Mac)
Coran's Friendship v1 beta (Mac)
Finch NPC v3 (PC converted)
Indira NPC v10 (PC converted)
Mur'Neth NPC v7 (Mac - corrected syntax error with " ' ")
Gavin NPC v3 (Mac)
Jonathan v0.2.1 (PC converted)
---> Here
Moinesse's Avatars v2 (Mac)
One Pixel Productions v2 (Mac)

I only assume that error lies with 1PP as it only occurs when 1PP is installed. Note: installing only the potion component does not result in a game crash. Here's what I've done so far to troubleshoot:

1. Un-installed 1PP and Moinesse and re-installed 1PP wo Moinesse - crash.
2. Re-installed 1PP and installed Moinesse after 1PP - crash.
3. Installed 1PP on vanilla (patched) ToB install, no other mods - crash.
4. Installed 1PP on vanilla (patched) SoA install, no other mods - crash with the following error msg: An assertion failed in chidimm.cpp at line number 2213 Progammer says: MemError.

Note: the SoA install is the only crash event that generates an error message. The other installs just crash out to the desktop with the Mac-standard "ignore, report, relaunch" message. I have no idea if the "MemError" refers to my machine, but just in case: I have 2gb ram and 30+gb drive space. The final thing I haven't tried (and will tonight) is using the PC version and converting for Mac use.

Is there something I have missed or done incorrectly? From what I've read, this mod is the shizzat, so hopefully there's a solution out there. Saw this post, but the link to the Mac remix file is dead. Sorry for the Wall of Text, 15' Radius :) but I hear devs like specifics...

Thanks and Cheers,
Az
