Thank you for your reply Leonardo! I have run BWP installs before also and never had an issue so figured it must have been a user error on my part. I tried it again just to be sure and the error was replicated. So I attempted to replace weidu.exe with v246 and deleted the 32 bit weidu that existed in the install pack and the install works now (this was just before you ended up replying). Weird.

Im sure you are correct in that the install pack changed the weidu version. And the 32 bit weidu was just a guess because I had no other ideas, so that seems unlikely to really have fixed anything. Regardless, its working now. Perhaps it was just happenstance. Anyway, thanks again.

Amazing to see BWP continuing to grow years after its inception. I have fond memories of playing with it and decided to try another install. I use individual.bat to customize an install and get no error messages until the very end after close2.bat runs. IDSfix.bat starts to run and then after going through about a thousand lines it has a syntax error and then states it does not have enough memory to compete the operation. It stops at that point and goes to a c:\Black Isle\bg2\ prompt (which is where my installation path is and just sits there.
2 questions - 1) has anyone else encountered this? I tried wiping and completely reinstalling with out and change.
2) how critical is the IDSfix.bat? I attempted another install with :: in front of the call IDSfix.bat, essentially skipping it. It will then complete installation, though it has trouble running winbiff. Which makes me suspect I have weidu 247 instead of weidu 246. Ill verify that tomorrow. Could the weidu version cause a problem with the IDSfix.bat as well? Anyway, if I run winbiff manually after it works and the game runs fine as far as I can tell initially, but dont know if there will be critical errors later with it.

Running it on windows 10 of course. And applying all the fixes seen on this thread. Any help is appreciated and thank you Leonardo and shs community for keeping me coming back to my favorite game of all time.
