Help creating custom install Batch

24 May 2011 - 08:49 AM

Okay, I am trying to make a custom install batch file for my friend because he simply cannot install all of the mods without messing it up for BGT. I've been trying to do this myself for an hour, but I am finding it far too complicated.

This is somehwat of a monumental request but I am going to ask anyway. Could someone make a batch file for me based on the following list?

This is quoted from instructions I gave my friend that he just isn't able to do on his own. We are trying to play the campaign together. (I have MP covered with gameranger)

Multiplayer BGT -"Human" problem

23 May 2011 - 10:22 AM

I got BG1+ToTSC working online with gameranger with my buddy. But He is very new to computers and he just can't get any mods installed. I wrote him Detailed instructions but none the less he can't do it. Now here is my question. Is there any way, that I can copy the modded files only, upload them to an upload site, and have him download it? There is NO way I can pick out each file on its own. Is there a simple way to do this? Something that will mark all of the folders/files needed or gather them up for me? If We cannot get BGT working with all of the mods then for now I just want BG1 to work with BG1 tweaks, (which he also cannot install). And no, explaining it to him doesn't work. He only purchased a gaming computer several days ago and has used PCs mostly for communication.

URGENT - NPCs don't level when joining party

11 May 2011 - 03:04 PM

I just beat the Nashkel mines and when I got back to Nashkel, I got Ewdin to join my party only for him to be level one with less than 300 XP. He doesn't recieve any xp even though my party is mostly level 3, Imoen is level 4. ( promptly killed the restore BG2 XP for traps and locks when I found out I was getting 1k xp per trap.) Edwin is useless without being a higher level. Is this my own fault from one of many tweaks and fixes installed to BGT?

I apologize for reposting this, but I really would like to get some help with this so I can continue my adventure.
