Oh, man, youre doing it all wrong then!
You are not supposed to simply import the eGUI into the chitin.key. You'd be doing it if you could use the HOW exe(in your case command, which you do not have). But if you are WEIDUing the eGUI, you need more serious work. And you cannot expect to play the game in 800x600. Not unless you are a c++ wiz. Here's what you need to do in overall perspective (You can correct me on anything here, since I am, as we Bulgarians say, barefoot when it comes to GUI edit: 1)Your goal is to incorporate the alements added by eGUI into the other GUI bifs of IWD. Note that there are, several bifs you need to edit(5 I think), which names begin with GUI - GUIbam, GUIfont... You can extract the files of these bifs, either using Nearinfinity, or WinBif. I personally prefer the second as it is faster and you can actually see what you are extracting beforehand. 2)There should also be, I am not sure, since I haven't checked, some copies of the files from these bifs (including eGUI) in the override folder. So be careful not to skip any of them. 3)The files that determin the behavior of the averall GUI have .CHU extension. The others are graphical files. In order to edit these files, you need a CHU editor. http://forums.blackwyrmlair.net/index.php?...e=post&id=11286 You need to edit the chu files and add anything that is in eGUI's chu files to the other CHU files. Be careful, though, since there are elements that cannot be seen in 640x480 - these need to be left behind. If you need professional assistance on the chu file, address Chevar. He made an alternative GUI for BG2 using the elements of BG1 and IWD. I also suggest that you post notes on your progress on a regular basis here, so that other modders might avoid mistakes you have made. I'll also try to help you with editing, if you want, but I am quite bussy right now, and won't have much time until I finish working on Azure NPC. -------------------- Blessed be the one who has nothing to say, and yet remains silent.
