Juniior Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) something went wrong with my installation, the image that appears in the prologue is from SOD i suspect it has something to do with bgee classic movies but i am not sureinstall.txt I learned that bgee.lua selects which image to use chapterBackgrounds[0] = "GUICHP0B" chapterBackgrounds[1] = "GUICHP1B" chapterBackgrounds[2] = "GUICHP2B" chapterBackgrounds[3] = "GUICHP3B" chapterBackgrounds[4] = "GUICHP4B" chapterBackgrounds[5] = "GUICHP5B" chapterBackgrounds[6] = "GUICHP6B" chapterBackgrounds[7] = "GUICHP7B" chapterBackgrounds[8] = "GUICHP8B" chapterBackgrounds[9] = "GUICHP9B" chapterBackgrounds[10] = "GUICHP10B" chapterBackgrounds[11] = "GUICHP11B" chapterBackgrounds[12] = "GUICHP12B" chapterBackgrounds[13] = "GUICHP13B" i am pretty sure they are all from SOD, not only that but more than half of the lines are empty chapterBackgrounds[14] = "" chapterBackgrounds[15] = "" chapterBackgrounds[16] = "" chapterBackgrounds[17] = "" chapterBackgrounds[18] = "" chapterBackgrounds[19] = "" chapterBackgrounds[20] = "BPEND" chapterBackgrounds[52] = "GUIDRM2" chapterBackgrounds[53] = "GUIDRM3" chapterBackgrounds[54] = "GUIDRM4" chapterBackgrounds[55] = "GUIDRM5" chapterBackgrounds[56] = "GUIDRM6" chapterBackgrounds[57] = "GUIDRM7" chapterBackgrounds[58] = "ARRIVE" chapterBackgrounds[59] = "LEAVE" chapterBackgrounds[60] = "" chapterBackgrounds[61] = "" chapterBackgrounds[62] = "" Edited January 5, 2023 by Juniior Quote Link to comment
jmerry Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Checking the unmodified version (BGEE with SoD) ... Spoiler chapterBackgrounds[0] = "GUICHP0A" chapterBackgrounds[1] = "GUICHP1A" chapterBackgrounds[2] = "GUICHP2A" chapterBackgrounds[3] = "GUICHP3A" chapterBackgrounds[4] = "GUICHP4A" chapterBackgrounds[5] = "GUICHP5A" chapterBackgrounds[6] = "GUICHP6A" chapterBackgrounds[7] = "GUICHP7A" chapterBackgrounds[8] = "GUICHP1B" chapterBackgrounds[9] = "GUICHP2B" chapterBackgrounds[10] = "GUICHP3B" chapterBackgrounds[11] = "GUICHP4B" chapterBackgrounds[12] = "GUICHP5B" chapterBackgrounds[13] = "GUICHP6B" chapterBackgrounds[20] = "BPEND" chapterBackgrounds[52] = "GUIDRM2" chapterBackgrounds[53] = "GUIDRM3" chapterBackgrounds[54] = "GUIDRM4" chapterBackgrounds[55] = "GUIDRM5" chapterBackgrounds[56] = "GUIDRM6" chapterBackgrounds[57] = "GUIDRM7" chapterBackgrounds[58] = "ARRIVEA" chapterBackgrounds[59] = "LEAVEA" chapterBackgrounds[100] = "GUICHP6B" The "GUICHP#A" files are associated with the main BG1 campaign, while the "GUICHP#B" go with the SoD campaign. Extension MOS, by the way. The empty entries look irrelevant to me; those go from being undefined in the original to being empty strings in your modified version. Oh, and the entries like "GUICHP10B" in your version run into the eight-character limit on resource names. Those most likely get cut off to "GUICHP10" and so on, which do at least have MOS files - three low-res copies of GUICHP1A and then a black screen. Yes, whatever mod did this definitely did things wrong. Quote Link to comment
Juniior Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) is there a way to check which mod modified this file? edit a reinstall without bgee classic movies, fixed the problem Edited January 5, 2023 by Juniior fixed Quote Link to comment
Sam. Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 @Juniior BG:EE Classic Movies doesn't mess with BGEE.lua, it just overwrites the MOS files directly. I'm thinking something else is at play, either you haven't installed the DLC Merger before ALL other mods, or you're using a GUI mod that either isn't supported or you're installing them in the wrong order.

jmerry Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) ... wait. Checking things, those chapterBackgrounds values match those from the versions of bgee.lua in non-SoD BGEE and in BG2EE. Which are the regular BGEE chapter images, at least for those that are present (0B to 8B). Siege of Dragonspear changes the underlying system, and the mod appears to be aware of that ... but if you're trying to mod a version of the game that still has a zipped-up DLC archive, some of the mod's changes will be overwritten by that archive. That breaks things. Edited January 6, 2023 by jmerry Quote Link to comment
Juniior Posted January 11, 2023 Author Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) i honestly have no idea because this is an EET install and i am pretty sure EET won't install without dlc merger Edited January 11, 2023 by Juniior Quote Link to comment
