MacrosBlack Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I have only installed SoA and ToB and the appropriate patches and then installed the BG2 fixpack. After this I tried installing the improved thiefs guild v 2.14. When I did this it appeared to load everything but then at the end I got the following error messages: [bG2FIXPACK/SETUP-BG2FIXPACK.TP2] PARSE ERROR at line 4 column 1-6 Near Text: README syxtax error [bG2FIXPACK/SETUP-BG2FIXPACK.TP2] ERROR at line 4 column 1-6 Near Text: README Parsing.Parse_error ERROR: parsing [bG2FIXPACK/SETUP-BG2FIXPACK.TP2] : Parsing.Parse_error and those errors repeated 16 times. After that in then said the mod was successfully installed. Can someone tell me what the error might be and if it will affect the running of the mod or the game? Thank-you for your help.

CamDawg Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 It should be fine. Basically, Improved Thieves Guild is running an older version of WeiDU that doesn't understand the 'README' command in newer versions of WeiDU (which Fixpack uses). The ITG installer should have auto-updated itself to the newer version before running--are you on OS X? Link to comment

The ITG installer should have auto-updated itself to the newer version before running--are you on OS X? No, Im running under Vista. But, the way he has the mod set up, he is running a batch file which grabs WeiDu out of a folder, so it might not be able to auto-update. Link to comment

So if I renamed the setup for fixpack to the proper name for the thiefs guild mod it should install the current WeiDu? Link to comment
Nythrun Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Yes, although the Thief Guild mod should have installed correctly anyway (its inability to parse the Fixpack is only a problem if it needs to chain uninstall-reinstall the Fixpack). Link to comment
Artimus Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Move weidu.exe and GBThfKp.tp2 from the GBThfKp folder to your main Baldur's Gate II folder. Rename weidu.exe to setup-gbthfkp.exe Rename gbthfkp.tp2 to setup-gbthfkp.tp2 I just ignored the batch file and ran setup-gbthfkp.exe EDIT: Posted instructions for fixing the problem instead of just pointing out the problem.
