Fiann of the Silver Hand Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I borked my bg2ee install a while back from tinkering with it, and decided to just wait until sod to update it. Now it appears there's no reason to, until the dialog issue gets fixed. There's enough hoops to jump through. Link to comment
Grammarsalad Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I borked my bg2ee install a while back from tinkering with it, and decided to just wait until sod to update it. Now it appears there's no reason to, until the dialog issue gets fixed. There's enough hoops to jump through.SoD doesn't really have much to do with bg2ee. Even if you have SoD installed, it won't do anything to bg2ee. It's really two separate things. In fact, the 2.x update is pretty sweet. (Once you have a decent ui mod installed) Link to comment
Fiann of the Silver Hand Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Yeah, I was foolishly hoping on BD to do more with the unification, rather than porting engine features back and forth. I'm sure EET will sort all this out for me. Link to comment
K4thos Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 currently unreleased update for EET supports only Beamdog version of SoD. But I can write a standalone weidu mod that will convert Steam/GoG version of SoD to work like Beamdog's version if no one has done it yet. If anyone knows about a freeware unzip tool that supports windows/mac/linux and can work from command line please post a link. Link to comment
AL|EN Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 7zip supports all platforms. http://www.7-zip.org/download.html Link to comment
Ulb Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 @K4thos that is awesome of you, though I'm still kind of expecting Beamdog to offer a solution instead of having you do all the work. In any case, thank you. Link to comment
Roxanne Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 @K4thos that is awesome of you, though I'm still kind of expecting Beamdog to offer a solution instead of having you do all the work. In any case, thank you. Pros and cons If K4thos does it we can be pretty sure that it works. But not everybody affected by this dilemma will know about it and many players just like to play their mods and will be unaware of the problem and its solution. This is why I agree with Ulb that there should be a solution from the source rather than one that may only be known and used by some *inner circle* of those who read these threads and forum.

K4thos Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 ok, here is a tool coded in weidu that converts Steam/GoG version of SoD to format used by Beamdog:https://github.com/K4thos/UnzipSoDShould work on Windows and probably on OSX (needs testing). If there is something wrong in the code feel free to modify files directly on GitHub.It takes few minutes to install. I agree that the current implementation is unacceptable, so hopefully this mod won't be an excuse for Beamdog to ignore the problem. edit: now also supports linux. Although keep in mind about this problem. The mod will be updated after new weidu is released. Link to comment
janoha Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I have to say K4thos, that your speed and the quality of your work really amazes me! Link to comment

K4thos Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Ulb, mac or windows? Looks like 7zip didn't work for you if the mod couldn't access UnzipSoD/sod-dlc/mod.key file. What was the command line message from 7zip? (it's not printed in the log). Link to comment
Ulb Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 May bad, old clipboard.. here is what I wanted to say error loading [unzipSoD/sod-dlc/mod.key] I checked the folder and there is no mod.key in there only a subfolder called override. Link to comment
argent77 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 @Ulb Does GoG use different filenames for the DLC (In the Steam version it's "sod/sod-dlc.zip" for the archive and "mod.key" for the included KEY file)?Just a word of warning. The current WeiDU version v239 doesn't know of the new resource types (MENU, LUA and TTF) and uses the wrong type for WBM files. Files of these types won't be extracted correctly (or at all). You should wait for Wisp to release an updated WeiDU (these issues have already been fixed internally). Link to comment
Ulb Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 @Argent77 nope, same file name Link to comment
K4thos Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I've just updated the package with additional FAIL messages and mtee.exe tool that will print command line messages. Please upload new full debug file - with these changes I will be able to check what has gone wrong. I'm also re-downloading clean version of Steam SoD to check it out once again. Just a word of warning. The current WeiDU version v239 doesn't know of the new resource types (MENU, LUA and TTF) and uses the wrong type for WBM files. Files of these types won't be extracted correctly (or at all). You should wait for Wisp to release an updated WeiDU (these issues have already been fixed internally). All LUA and MENU files are included in the package - they are copied over to override after weidu unbiffing is complete. Forgot about TTF files but from what I see they are already present in the vanilla game biffs, so probably not needed. Link to comment
