i have done that but still get same error message. as i said have several mods already installed

 

Make sure the names of all the setup files match. A lot of auto installers try to go straight into lthe weidu installation, but I've seen a few instance where, because of funkiness with the self extracting zip, the setup file doesn't match the name of the .tp2 file. The tp2 and the exe should match up. If the tp2 file is RoV.tp2 then the Weidu .exe should be setup-RoV.tp2. Sometimes that is the problem. Also, it can sometimes be that the weidu just can't run automatically after unzipping your mod. If that's the case, all you need to do is rerun the weidu.exe after running the self extracting zip file.

 

the TP2 file is FR_ROV.tp2 & the setup-FR_ROV is this what your talking about not being the same. if so how do i fix this problem, please remember to give me a detailed solution as i'm not that great at the inner workings of the game.

 

If you are getting the message that dialog.tlk cannot be found, then you are not extracting it into your BG2 directory (though I am aware you have posted you tried again). I'd try another time--that's pretty much the sole explanation for that error message.

(The other would be that you for whatever reason deleted dialog.tlk, but then you'd have problems as no text would appear in the game.)

 

Try Drew's way -- first run the .exe and check if it ends by saying that you should run it again because "sorry, Windows won't let me do this." In that case, simply run the .exe once more and the mod installs just fine. (And DO make sure the mod un-zipped/-rared into the BG2 folder in the first place.)

 

will try that again, also is this mod any good? like the items ok this is what it says exactly when i run setup [cprogram files\black isle\bg2-soa\FR & ROV v3 \ setup - FR_ ROV.exe ] weidu version 139 then error: unable to find DIALOG.TLK in : dialog.tlk then please run this program in your infinity engine game directory then error: failure { unable to find dialog.tlk"} then press enter to exit hope this helps

taluntain, ok got that to go, now it says error: copy ~FR_ROV/itm/new/catbow.itm~ ~ override/deITM001.itm.~ failed:cannot open target ( what is this & what does it mean )

 

It cannot find one of the mod folders--I think judging by your prior posts you have the files one folder too deep, and you perhaps just moved the setup program up one level rather than the whole mod?

I would extract it again, to your BG2 directory. So your main (dialog.tlk-containing) directory. You should end up with setup-FR_ROV.exe and a folder called FR_ROV in it.

 

did everything again and have the folder but setup-FR_ROV.exe is just setup-FR_ROV NO exe at the end. does this make a difference?

 

did you try running it! Maybe you have file name extension as not visible in your folder options?

 

Yes, you'll need to double-click on it.

 

after that it now says error: sys_error {" override/DeITM001.itm: no such file or directory"} now whats this

 

I'm not sure. Perhaps your download or installation is corrupted.

 

Just bash it with a hammer!

 

i will delete everything and try downloading it either again or from different sight and let you all know
