Not Telling
Let me start by saying that while it's my first post on this forum since I can remember, lurking here has helped me through BGII installs several times over the 6 years or so that I've played IE mods. So, a belated thanks to the community.
However, I recently got a new laptop, formatted a hard drive, installed Windows 8... my BWP install got lost in the shuffle somewhere and doesn't run like it used to. I'm trying to more-or-less duplicate that install on my Win8 laptop. I took my BWS-Selection file, ran it through the update process, redownloaded everything that's changed, and ran it on a fresh install on the new PC.
Problem is, it gets through the extractions and errors out on the installation of NTotSC, stating "This mod should be installed after DSotSC." From the log, it looks like DSotSC isn't found, but I have the most recent version present and extracted. Notably, DSotSC didn't generate a debug log or anything, it looks like it wasn't even run, though its point in the order was passed. Is this because it's the new version that just came out? Anyway, after that, most of the mods are not installed due to errors, and I didn't end up completing the failed installation. I'll post the relevant parts of the installation debug here:
Nothing before that point lists any warnings or errors, and everything after that is pretty much the same thing (files not found, errors)
I've attached a copy of the BWS-Selection that lists the mods and options I'm using, if that's of interest. [attachment=26238:Mods Selection.txt]
Since I first encountered these errors, I have taken steps to try to fix them, but the same thing shows up each time. I have:
Disabled UAC, PCA, SmartScreen, Windows Defender (when offline)
Uninstalled from Program Files and reinstalled in C:\Black Isle\BGII - SoA\
Uninstalled GoG.com version of BGII and dug up my old ISOs, installed and patched CD version
...
I guess that's mostly it. I've plugged in and pulled out a few mods seeing if it'll make a difference, tried this six or seven times - it's getting tiring. Any thoughts? I have other debug files of course but I'm not certain what's relevant.
