In Topic: BiG World Setup

31 October 2010 - 07:55 AM

Couple of things preventing me from proceeding:

Even though I did turn off Norton AntiVirus another part of the program must have been running and identified these two files as trojans:

kontwk_v2_2.rar
eldoth11.rar

More importantly all of the following would not extract:

The extraction of the following mod(s) failed:
Volcanic Armoury v1.4: The Mod itself (VolcanicArmoury1.4.rar)
Nikitalleria NPC (Nikita) v1.01: The Mod itself (Nikita101.rar)
Wikaede One-Day NPC v3.4: The Mod itself (wikaede_v34.rar)
Solestia NPC v1.2: The Mod itself (absolestia.zip)
Kari the Half-Kobold NPC (Beta) v1.3: The Mod itself (Kariv1-3b.rar)
Paladins of Faerun Kitpack v5: The Mod itself (PoF_Kitpack_V5.rar)
B!Tweaks v4: The Mod itself (b!tweak_lite-v4.exe)

Any suggestions?


There are a few RARs I found that get detected as having a virus. Turn off your AV, download the RAR and manually extract everything EXCEPT the setup-<modname>.exe. Then just recreate the missing setup by copying weidu.exe to setup-<modname>.exe.

I was able to download and extract Volcanic Armoury amd B!Tweaks manually. The host site for Paladins of Faerun appears to have been taken down and I haven't been able to locate an alternate download location.

In Topic: Trimpack - hunk failed

28 October 2010 - 08:22 PM

If there's a BiG World Debug.txt file in your BGII-SoA folder, could you please zip/rar it up and attach it here?? :) The newer trimpack was supposed to overwrite stuff so there shouldn't actually be any hunk fails :unsure:

PS: Are you doing a manual install?? This is the new trimpack btw ...


Heh, I already blew out the debug going back to vanilla to start over. I am doing a manual install because Big World Setup kept tripping up. Thanks for the link. Giving it all another go.

In Topic: Trimpack - hunk failed

28 October 2010 - 03:11 PM

Just curious what the "hunk #x failed" messages mean when running the Trimpack and whether the errors pose a problem to continuing with a megamod install

Most likely, the hunk was made to update older version of the mod that is currently in usage, so the hunk fails, but as this is part of the "intelligent fixing" of those problems, the BiG World Install is actually more error free the more it fails, unless the fixes need to be remade, and hopefully that's unlikely.


Got it. Good to know.

Interestingly, TDD had the largest amount of script in its .rej taken from its tp2 file. When I installed it, it hit some errors and while "restoring" the original data it completely deleted my override folder. Restoring from backup now. Perhaps TDD needs to be run with an older WeiDU as well?
