DEITM049.ITM Error Options

[BeachBum]

I am in the middle of installing Big World and specifcally the Lost Crossroads Spell Pack for Baldur's Gate 2 = SpellPackB5 and am encountering an error.

When trying to install the Core Files and Graphics it fails with the following error. "DEITM049.ITM: read out of bounds".

Can anyone help resolve this.

Thanks.

I don't get it.

Perhaps I'm misinterpreting something, so let me summarize what I believed the problem is:
- when SpellPack is installed, it modifies (with WeiDU parlance: "patches") many game files, often based on regular expression matching
- some files SpellPack tries to modify are corrupt (e.g. bad offsets/indexes in extended headers)
- SpellPack's installer refers to an invalid offset (due to the invalid data it read from the file) which obviously results in an out-of-bounds error

Is this correct? If yes, my question was simple: your words gave the impression that we're talking about more than just 1-2 corrupt files (you said that the typical problem of read-out-bounds occured with more files), so I ask where do the corrupt files come from? What mod installed them before SpellPack? I am wondering why they're corrupt. For example, they are a few corrupt BAM files (even in the original game), but I haven't really seen items corrupted in the way we've discussed.

Correct.

...so I ask where do the corrupt files come from? What mod installed them before SpellPack?

So far, I only know of NeJ. But people have hinted of other mods, and chances are they are right. In that case, the macro is worth the effort.

I am wondering why they're corrupt.

I really don't know.
