In Topic: problem with installation v2.1

10 April 2010 - 04:49 PM

Thank you, both the installation and the fix worked perfectly :) .



Hi!
I am new to the forum and first of all I want to thank ghostdog for this wonderful mod.
I have been using the v1.21 without any problem (WinXP), with the widescreen mod v2.2. Today I tried to install the new version 2.01 because I wanted bigger fonts and dialog box. I replaced the old files in the game directory with the new ones and I run the Setup-GhostDog's-PST-UI.
Towards the end (I think when patching the torment.exe file), the installation failed with the message:

no pattern for bmp patching found

Can someone help me with this? I attach the debug file.

Thank you



It seems there is an error when the installer starts to patch the journal pics and the loading bar. There was another who had the same problem and we found a way around it.


Go into the GhostDog's-PST-UI\TPH folder in your torment directory. Open the Setup-GhostDog's-PST-UI.tp2 file and erase all the "INCLUDE ~GhostDog's-PST-UI/TPH/journalpics_loadingbar_fix.tph~" entries. There are 5 of them.
This will remove the bmp patching and thus the journal pics and loading bar will not be centered correctly, but you'll be able to play the game with the rest of the UI elements.


If after that the installation works, then you can try installing the fix as a separate installation. You can find it here : Journal_pics_loading_bar_fix.7z


This looks like a random bug. There is really no reason for the patch to fail, except if you have some antivirus/firewall that prevents multiple patching of the torment exe. But it doesn't really make sense. Anyway, let me know how it goes.
