    i have BG2:SoA+ToB also all big mods installed with Big Picture (installed the way BP manual tells)and Check the Bodies mod (installed after BP)

    game works fine except i can't enter "bridge district". any time i try to get there game crashes kicking me back to windows

    if anyone knows what could be done pls tell me

    i think it may help if i restore original files for "bridge district" area so if anyone knows which files i need to replace post pls.

    info on my PC: P4 2.4GHz HTT, 512MB RAM, ATI Radeon 9600Pro, Seagate 160GB serial ATA

    Thanks for your time and help.

    Do you have the ToB official patch and Baldurdash's fixpack installed?

    The ToB patch is required for BP. If that's not installed it won't work properly, but that's mentioned in the install instructions.

    Baldurdash won't work with BP. If that's installed, then problems will be encountered.

    yes, i have both patches installed

    everything done the way manual/readme files suggested

    i found on ironworks forums that somebody else already had this problem(post made 3years ago i think), unfortunately there are no replies to it

    =====================

    just reinstalled everything fresh without Baldurdash Fixpack, nothing changed, still can't enter bridge district

    any other suggestions?

    Have you tried teleporting to the Bridge District using the command console?

    i.e CLUAConsole:MoveToArea("AR0500")

    just tried teleporting, crashing as entering usual way
    it crashes when loading bridge district area so i guess smth must be wrong with area map, etc.

    ================

    but thanks, you helped me telling AreaID
    i removed files AR0500.ARE and AR0500.BCS from ovveride directory and it works, i can enter brigde district now. Me happy. Thanks again.

    Alright! Glad to see you found a solution for this.

    Now: one thing to be aware of... it's possible that some 'people' from the mod, who should appear in the district, will not appear (since you have replaced the area-map). In this case you may have to use CLUAConsole:CreateCreature("") to summon the person. You may want to consult a walkthrough if you think anything may be missing in that ARea.

    some other areas are crashing too, so far:

    bridge district
    umar cave
    trademeet
    some other (can't recall now)

    all the time i just remove those areas from override directory
    removed so far:
    AR0500
    AR1106
    AR1200
    AR1900
    AR2000

    when i met Kivan in Umar hills i took him to my party, he said he need to free some girl which was held captive in Umar cave
    Umar cave was crashing, removed files, entered, couldn't find anybody to rescue, but Kivan said nothing
    he is travelling with me and not complaining

    mods are very nice addon but a lot of bugs
