Guest Guest Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I tried installing Kivan v8 but failed. My instal rder was BG2, ToB, patch, Ascension, Fixpack, Solaufein, Kelsey then Kivan. But I never got past the first install"box", it just reapets: WeiDU files in version order: [setup-Solaufein.exe] version 20400 [setup-KelseyTOB.exe] version 20400 [setup-Kelsey.exe] version 20400 [setup-bg2fixpack.exe] version 20400 [setup-Ascension.exe] version 20400 [setup-Kivan.exe] version 199 Copying [setup-Solaufein.exe] -> [setup-Kivan.exe]: false [setup-Solaufein.exe] WeiDU version 20400 Auto-Updating on behalf of [setup-kivan.exe] Copying [setup-Solaufein.exe] -> [setup-kivan.exe]: Auto-Updating on behalf of [setup-kivan.exe] (done) [setup-kivan.exe] WeiDU version 199 {Setup-Ascension.exe} Queried (pid = 4396) version = 20400 query done. Newest WeiDU is version 20400, updating! and then starts over from the top again. What could be wrong? Link to comment
Domi Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 It simply updated the installer from WeiDU v 199 to WeiDU 20400. Just run the installer again, it should work. Link to comment
Guest Deviija Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 It simply updated the installer from WeiDU v 199 to WeiDU 20400. Just run the installer again, it should work. I'm having this looping 'issue' as well. Should I just let the installer sit in the background while it keeps updating these files? I let it sit about 40 minutes so far, repeating the same queries of 199 to 20600. Is this normal and should I just keep it running? Link to comment
Domi Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Uhm, no, it didn't used to take this long. I am wondering if it's worthwhile to ask on the WeiDU forums. I am posting a link on the WeiDU forum here: http://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php?ac...post;board=44.0 let's see what the bigg says. Link to comment
cmorgan Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 There are two possible problems here, as this is a widely reported trouble... the first is that the old setup-mymod.bat means that the weidu auto-update routine now gets slammed into an infinite loop (thus all the spring cleaning efforts for older mods). Removing the setup-kivan.bat file, ontents @echo off "Setup-kivan.exe" --update-all > nul cls "Setup-kivan.exe" and copying a version of WeiDU (best to get v208) should solve the problem. For modders, WeiDU now updates itself without the need for a separate .bat file, so it is not necessary to distribute with it. If removing the .bat file still causes the behavior, then you might mention it to the bigg. Link to comment
Domi Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 The 'emergency' version 8.1 fixes this problem. Thank you cmorgan for putting it up! Link to comment
