BGT 1.01 install problem ("...detecting BG1 dir")

13 October 2006 - 02:48 AM

Greetings, cheers and regards to all you folks who have the heart to fight off hordes of evil users like me, who keep knocking on your forums with their problems. :blush:

Haven't managed to find any existing solution for exactly this problem, feel free to kill this post if I haven't dug deep enough, will try harder))

Okay, I've played BG1Tutu quite a while ago while it was still buggy quite alot but haven't made it to the end of the game 'cause my boss seemed not to like the whole idea... oh well, a pity :ermm:

Now I thoght it may be the time to finish the great game again (at last?)), so, loading it up with all the nice mods I can gather seemed to be a good idea, great thing there is a BGT, BP and WeiDU... so, skipping many lines of thanxto... here is the installation order:

1. BG (5CD ver, NorthAmerican License, all checkboxes), TotSC (Remembering BG1Tutu I've tried to copy contents of Data and Movies folders on CD to HDD too), BGTalesUS5512.exe
2. BG2 SoA (4CD, Full Install), BG2 ToB, BGII-ThroneofBhaal_Patch_26498_ENGLISH.exe
3. Launched both configs, just in case...
4. BG 2 fixpack beta v3
5. SoS v1.11, TDD v1.11, CtB v1.8, Tortured Souls for BP v6.09
Everything fine thus far, no errors and... 6. Here comes BGT! (:ta daa:))

...unpacked it to BG2 dir (c:\Games\BG2, Total Commander), no files missing (double-checked *.bat ones)).
"cmd":

...32-bit, x86 (English OS version, tried setting regional standarts to US (from Russian), too... alas, no effect. Hardware is Pentium D 820 / 512 / Palit x1600PRO 256mb, but I doubt that it really matters here)...

Wish it just showed me disk read error or something)

C:\Games\BG>exit

.DEBUG file attached, hope it clears things up for someone, if not for me.

I've also tried to run FileMon to see if it really does all the things it should and... well, it does!))
Don't think there is any real need to attach the log, WeiDU looks honest enough, but then, why not?)

Hope there is some trivial solution for this that's just a bit beyond my imagination, but well, it just is

Sorry for any spelling errors, english is not my native language after all, and thanks in advance for any help.
