    To be honest, I don't even know what the "BEW Tool" is. I presume some kind of multimod install tool, but I am simply not familiar with it.

    Yes It's just a multi-mod install tool I downloaded from https://baldursextendedworld.com/Install-Tool/ ... and yes it's Roxanne's tool. 

    TBH, I appreciate what Jarno has done for the G3 community. I'm just not ... quite adapted to his language style.

    Well, you might want to rethink your approach, if I explain this a little better...

    See your TOPIC title says the use of the current version and that you have an error in it. Now, did you install the native mod without any tools assistance or modifications ? Nope. This makes the entire MOD look BAD.

    Now, there's this thing called complete honesty that rings hollow coming from the very first post... but that's just that. You weren't asking for technical help, your post comes out as telling that the current non modified version is flawed. And the bad stuff that's come from the Roxanne's tool rings these very same walls.

    "Trying to modify this mod and came up with an error I can't find a solution to; Help ?"

    Yes, you are correct about the title. I was being lazy, I just copied the error message from the Debug file and pasted it there as the topic title. I didn't think that much when I first started the topic. I should be more precise. I'm gonna change it as you've suggested.

    I never say the mod is flawed. This is a beta release and I'm installing a big bunch of mods. This tend to cause error even without me modding the tp2 file. Bartimaeus reminded me about the disabled spells and so I attached my main_component.tpa file. It's not like I was trying to hide this. 

    I use to manually install all the mods to the non-EE version of the game. But since BWS is outdated and project infinity is at its alpha stage, the best tool I can think of is the BEW tool. It can save me time. Otherwise it would be time consuming. If there's a better tool I'll gladly use it. 

    Like I said, I was just trying find a better way to pick the spells I like without causing too much error during the installation process.

     

    "Help! I can't turn on my computer"

    "We are here to help. Did u press the power button?"

    "Yes I did. But nothing happened"

    "Did u check your power cord?"

    "Oops, I forgot to connect it after cleaning the case."

    "You're not being complete honest. You should say 'Help! I can't turn on my computer without connecting the power cord.' in the first place. You were telling that our computer is flawed"

    "......"

    "AND we needed to request for the information to know that u unplugged the power cord!"

    "............"

    I'm surprised you didn't run into more errors, to be honest. Just the two is pretty good.

    I did, actually. Disabling Dispelling Screen prevented some SCS components from being installed. But, like Jarno Mikkola said:

    if you alter the .tp2 file or any of the files, you are technically no longer installing the Spell Revision v4b18 any more. And claiming so just make you look bad.

    I guess shouldn't post those errors here. It's funny; all I did was adding a few /* ... */ as suggested in the README file. And all of a sudden this made me look bad. 

     

    "Hooray, Oracle will no longer be changed when you install the mod! If you have any questions or require assistance with any of the above, feel free to drop me a line in the forum."

    Then again, the README file is outdated and the link in it is a dead one.

     

    I was just trying find a better way to pick the spells I like without causing too much error during the installation process.

     

    Now come to think of it, why the heck did I even bother? I'm only messing with this old old old game because the city-wide quarantine is driving me crazy.  I don't even know if I will have the time to enjoy the modded game after they lift the quarantine. There will be so many catch-ups to do.

    Tweaking and playing the old game used to make me happy. Well... I guess everyone has to move on.

    It might help everyone if you would mark what changes you made and how they pop up errors and help to tell how to avoid doing so. As in, the files are not independent, but rely on each others dependently and so making cheese of one, will make cheese of others and avoiding doing so would help you not make cheese of the whole milk. After all, the whey is where the wheel is.

    The main (only?) thing that I've tweaked is the attached main_component.tpa file. The reason is that I prefer to use some of the vanilla spells. 

    I'm also wondering if I can move the sequencers and some of the epic spells back to my spell book? I remember SCS has this option available so that people can choose if the game should treat the epic spells as innate abilities or not.

  5. Hi All,

    I tried to install the mods earlier today and got some errors:

    ERROR locating resource for 'COPY'
    Resource [spwi303d.spl] not found in KEY file:
        [./chitin.key]
    Stopping installation because of error.


    ERROR locating resource for 'COPY'
    Resource [sppr951d.itm] not found in KEY file:
        [./chitin.key]
    Stopping installation because of error.

    I've attached the SETUP-SPELL_REV.DEBUG file.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    Thanks!

    It's strange that I was able to install it on my old laptop; but the installation failed on my new desktop with the same settings and same BWS version.

    Same ... doesn't mean here what you think it does. See the mods the game uses have computer generated randomization, as well as what ever updates the software gets from dozens of sources the BWS uses during it's process.

    If you had wanted the same, you could have just copied the data files(aka game folder) from one computer to another, but you didn't.

     

    Ouh, and by the way, is the D drive a harddrive ? Or some other media device, such as a USB connected... which will slow things down to a crawl and do horrible other things.

     

    yes, the D drive is a hard drive

    I did copy the game folder from my laptop to my desktop.

    I just thought it would be much easier if I can solve this issue, otherwise it would be so painful if I want to try some other mods

  7. Hello,

    I had a failed installation. I selected the "BWS recommended selection".

    Here's the debug message:
