Hi Dabus,

On a work PC so do not have access to the log files otherwise I would put them up for you, so apologies.


>1) I tested the links right now and they are all up. So I don't know.
>And what did you mean by connecting? What's happening? Are you doing a check or a download?
>You don't need a login or something to get the files, btw.

This answers my main question about login, when I get home I'll try again and see if I get the same issue if I do I'll get you the log file. I have no firewall on my laptop and thought it strange it was only the SHSForum modules, yet when I pasted the URL from the logfile into Mozilla viola it downloaded the link.

>3) What do you mean by crash? Is it really a crash or is it closed properly with a message like I cannot continue with this or that?
>If it did crash, you should have seen a dialog asking you to post a message at the forums or start debugging the error.
>If it did not crash, have a look at BiG World Setup\Logs to see what was going on lately.

I put this down to the fact half the files appear not to have downloaded if I get a repeat I will also post the files.

Sorry not more specific right now at work ;)

Hello,

Firstly I am a newbie with the BigWorldSetup process (I hear the groans now) so please forgive me, I have searched on google and on here to no avail as to the solution to the problem.

I downloaded the latest BigWorldSetup.exe latest version from the MegaMod Download (8.2?) last night. I have cleanly followed all the instructions on BG install, and BG II install. I fire up the EXE, select  installation directories and Recommended install I have the following problem:

1)When connecting to the SHS forums it says it cannot find the archive, yet when I copy the exact link in to my Mozilla browser it pulls them down. This is all SHSForum modules, yet ones not in SHSForum it finds fine. Do I need to do something special for SHSForum mods? Like login etc?

2)The system is looking for BigWorldSetup and Fix modules with the prefix 8.2.7, now I have seen in some posts there are potential versions but the biggest I can find is 8.2.5 beta, I assume BigWorldSetup picks up a file list from somewhere (Somehow related to (1) ) above?

3)Bigworld setup then crashes when it starts to run, probably because it has not downloaded the modules.

Sorry if silly questions.
Thanks
Lug.
