Hi,

I'm new to installing mods of this kind. I decided to install spellpack because of the spell static charge among others, I tried installing spellpack, but I'm getting an error.

I have SoA installed together with ToB and Baldurdash2 or something like that. I also have a mod installed to fix the cloak of mirroring effect.

I'm getting the following error when trying to install spellpack:

ERROR locating resource for 'COPY'
Resource [SPPR330A.spl] not found in KEY file:
[./chitin.key]
Stopping installation because of error.

ERROR Installing [Thorn Spray, Recitation, Cloud of Pestilence, Static Charge, A
damantite Mace], rolling back to previous state
Will uninstall 75 files for [SETUP-SPELLPACKB5.TP2] component 5.

Install Component [Thorn Spray, Recitation, Cloud of Pestilence, Static Charge,

[I]nstall, or [N]ot Install or [Q]uit?

I'm choosing not to install wizard spells. I picked core spell files and baldurs gate 2 advanced sounds. Funny how it's failing just as it's trying to install static charge.

I'm wondering, I "pressed" [Q]uit since I didn't want to install the rest after the failure. Is the installation now rolled back? The DOS box disappeared after 1 second so I couldn't see what it said afterwards.

I added the debug file.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not really familiar with Weidu mods or whatever that is, but it worked.

I do have some new issues now. I somehow messed up my graphics settings so I had to fiddle around with the settings and had to disable the 3D accelerator as well as Direct3D to make the game run without having graphical anomalies. However I do have anomalies now with the installed spellpack graphics. I uninstalled the core files, but obviously now the spells that I wanted do not work anymore.

I tried reïnstalling the core files but it gives me an error. Is there a way to just install the spells Thorn Spray and Static Charge without any of the other options? I don't really care for updating anything else. I just want these spells. I also changed some of the BAM files so they look like BG2 spells in the spellbook and quickslots (instead of those black box thingies), but that shouldn't be a problem should it?

Here's the error:

ERROR: illegal 2-byte read from offset 1226 of 1226-byte file MISC73.ITM
ERROR: [MISC73.ITM] -> [override/MISC73.ITM] Patching Failed (COPY) (Failure("MI
SC73.ITM: read out of bounds"))
Stopping installation because of error.

Also, it will not allow me to uninstall the installed priest spells. It will just skip everything. When I try to uninstall the improved casting sounds it tells me it's too old or something.

Looks like I'll have to reinstall SoA and ToB plus all the mods to make this thing work again...

I have a question regarding the mod itself. Why not have an option to install everything individually? Why have spell "sets" and make it mandatory to update and patch every other thing in the game even though you might only want to add one or two spells?
Like I'd like to install Static Charge and Thorn Spray, but I don't care for the Mace spell, but since it's part of a "set" it will install it regardless. Which means I'll have to change the BAM of this spell as well so it won't look out of place in my spellbook.
