Beregost Crash Fixer
Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Raphael Wong
------------------------------------
Requirements
Java Runtime Environment 1.6 or higher
Usage
Due to an as yet unidentified problem, leaving or entering Beregost can corrupt Baldur's Gate saved game file, resulting in a crash when you try to load them.
This program does two things to try and fix the saved game (supports BG1, BG:TotSC, BG1TuTu, EasyTutu, and BGT-WeiDU):
- Characteristic Beregost area corruptions are repaired by zero-ing the corrupted data fields.
- The saved game is reconstructed, which can also fix the saved game.
Instructions:
1. Download and install Java Runtime Environment version 6.0 from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
If you already use JRE, I recommend uninstalling previous versions first.
2. Unzip BeregostCrashFixer.zip to any directory.
3. Go to the directory you extracted the .zip file to. Double-click on BeregostCrashFixer.jar
4. Click the '...' button, then navigate to find your corrupt BALDUR.SAV file (typically <Baldur's Gate installation directory>\save\<saved game name>\BALDUR.SAV)
5. If there are no errors, you should see 'Loaded file: <your file>' in the text area, and the 'Process' button at the bottom of the program will be enabled
6. Click the 'Process' button and wait. The text area will inform you of scanning the Beregost area file and if any errors are present, else it will output 'No errors found.'
7. When the status bar above the text area shows the word 'Done.', BALDUR.SAV has been patched (or re-packaged if there were no problems found) and you are ready to try the saved game. Even if no errors are found, your saved game may still be fixed, so try it anyway
8. A backup is made in the same directory as the input BALDUR.SAV, called BALDUR.BAK.

You will simply never finish surprising me, Ascension64! Congratulations!

Argh..I"m having a problem using this.
i unzipped the .zip file to create the BeregostCrashFIxer into my game folder, and tried runing the .jar file. I get the following error
"Cannot find the main Program will exit" from the Java Virtual Machine Launcher. I do have the latest Java software.
Renamed the .jar file to "jar -jar BeregostCrashFixer.jar" and tried executing it, and still getting the same error..
Am I doing something wrong?
-
Anyone else getting this problem? Please report.
Try opening up the .jar file in an archiver program such as WinRAR (WinZip might be able to handle it as well). Check if asc64/beregost/BeregostCrashFixer.class exists in the jar archive. If it does exist, go into the META-INF directory and open up MANIFEST.MF in a text file. Is the line "Main-Class: asc64.beregost.BeregostCrashFixer" present?
Also, try downloading the file again. Let me know if it works or not.
Sorry, I actually made a mistake when saying use "jar".
Don't rename the .jar file. Go to the command line and type in "java -jar BeregostCrashFixer.jar". You'll need to make sure that java.exe is directly accessible, e.g. type the full path to the jar.exe file, found by default in C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin.
-
i re-downloaded the .zip file
I opened up the .jar file with winzip and checked to make sure the asc64/beregost/BeregostCrashFixer.class exists, and that the Main-Class: asc64.beregost.BeregostCrashFixer is present ( the 3rd line) in the MANIFEST.MF file
so i unzipped the beregostcrashfixer.zip into my game directory, and copied the 3txt files from the src.zip to my game directory as well
double clicking the .jar file gives me the same error as above.
going into the command prompt, i type in the java command, and i get hte following error:
C:\Program Files\BaldursGateTutu>java -jar beregostcrashfixer.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version n

not sure what else to do....any idea whats' going on? I wasn't too sure what you meant by making sure java.exe is directly accessible
-
Are you certain you are using Java Runtime Environment 1.6.0? Do you have another version of JRE you have installed but didn't uninstall it before you installed JRE 1.6.0?
In terms of 'directly accessible', go to the command line, and type the full path to your java.exe to run the jar file. For example, since my java.exe is found in C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin, and if my jar file is in C:\Games\Baldur's Gate II, I would type in the command line:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin\java -jar C:\Games\Baldur's Gate II\BeregostCrashFixer.jar
-
Cant get it to work. I have JRE 1.5.0_10 (this i sthe latest one for windows off the java website. JRE1.6.0 is solely for linux i believe)
So, my java.exe is located in the "C:\program files\java\jre1.5.0_10\bin" folder
My beregostcrashfixer.jar is located in the "c:\program files\baldursgatetutu" filder
I've tried the folllowing:
C:\>c:\program files\java\jre1.5.0_10\bin\java -jar c:\program files\baldursgate
tutu\BeregostCrashFixer.jar
'c:\program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
So essentially it's not recognizing that command line. Running the same ocmmand from either the java directory, or the game directory, yields the same problem. So i went to my game directory, and typed the following:
C:\Program Files\BaldursGateTutu>java -jar BeregostCrashFixer.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version n
umber in .class file

Basically the above error resulted.
Is it possible for me to zip up my saved file, and send it to you somehow? It might be because my operating system is different (assuming you are using linux), there are different commands that might work on yours and not on mine?
-
Ah, you have to use JRE 1.6.0. Find it at http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp.
-
hey nice, it works now
Thanks for all your help!
-
No problem. Good to hear your save game is fine. ;)
-
Strange, with in 4 sperate installs with different mods each time on 2 different computers, I have never had a problem with this...
-
As in you never had a problem with save games being corrupted from Beregost crashing?
-
No until today, I think... I quick saved before pilfering the Algernon's cloak, he turned hostile, reloaded and it crashed midway through... I'll try a different save, I don't have JRE.
-
Well, JRE isn't all that difficult to get, and works much better than the Windows Java VM I reckon.
-
Thanks alot for this fix! You saved my day :)
-
Pleasure. Glad it worked. ;)
-
Not sure if it's been mentioned before, but traveling directly from the bandit camp to Beregost as expected, crashed me. I tried traveling from the temple & it worked. Maybe it's just long distances, where ambushes are expected. Maybe it's just traveling between certain areas.
-
Well, that isn't to do with your save game. There is an error in the world map file or an encounter area as you said. What installation are you using?
-
I downloaded this application and got it to run with no problems at all. I told it to fix my autosave and it said it did. Then I loaded up the game and it failed miserably. I tried fixing the autosave with the program again, and it said it did. Then, I tried fixing the same file right after it just said it fixed it...to no avail. Any ideas?
-
You might have to register, but can you zip up your save game and post it here?
-
Hey guys, I ran the fixer and it opens fine, processes my save but i STILL get a crash as I try going to Beregost. Anyone know why?
-
You might have to register, but can you zip up your save game and post it here?
Or if you can't post it, PM it to Ascension64 (and copy me if you want, but he knows more about this sort of thing).
-
Yes, for those that have the utility reporting a fix but the save game not actually being fixed, the only way you can really help me out is to post/upload your savegame somewhere.
-
Small update.
-
Wonderful work you have saved me 70 hours play time and let me continue to enjoy this wonderful conversion -thank you.
-
wow Ascension64, you truly are great! :) like folks said before me - you saved me a lot time and brought back the pleasure of playing. tnx!! ;D
-
This didnt work for me :(
I cant see how to pm a file on here but i will send my saves if you can provide you email? Thank you for any help you can give.
If it helps at all, it used to crash about 1/3 through the loading screen, with the bars having moved 1/3 up the skull. It now crashes right at the beginning without them having moved at all on both saves.
-
A new flavour of Beregost corruption in the saved game (based on some custom output for the Beregost Crash Fixer):
Reading entry: FW3300.ARE (file name length: 11; uncompressed size: 100332; compressed size: 11918)
Actual uncompressed size: 100264
If the utility isn't working, try to decompress and recompress your BALDUR.SAV file in NearInfinity. That should fix things if there is a mismatch in uncompressed size.
EDIT: Actually, that isn't it, so I don't really know what's wrong with the saved game.
-
You are a god among men! Thank you so much <3
-
Well, it doesn't work for me.. I only have a quicksave and, like expected, it crashes at 1/3 of the loading process. I've tried unzipping everything in the crashfixer and moving it all to the bg Tutu directory and still nothing. This is my first time playing bg1, so I'm not really used to all this stuff.
I have uploaded my savegame: http://www.gratisupload.dk/show.php?fileId=10246
I'm using easytutu in a seperate folder from the original, if that can be of any help...
Thanks in advance ^_^
Btw, why is there a file called Quick-SaveBALDUR.BAK in my save folder? I think the Beregostfixer created this..?
-
Hmm, your link is giving me the following error:
Warning: require_once(includes.inc.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mounted-storage/home90c/sub008/sc34990-CWHV/gratisupload.dk/show.php on line 2
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes.inc.php' (include_path='/mounted-storage/home51c/sub005/sc34990-CWHV/includes/gratisupload.dk/') in /mounted-storage/home90c/sub008/sc34990-CWHV/gratisupload.dk/show.php on line 2
The BAK file is supposed to be a backup made by the fixer. I'll have a look why the path isn't correct.
-
New version released. This update will fix the problems with the utility 'not working' (i.e. saved games that get corrupted due to a compression problem rather than corrupted area data)
Changes:
- corrected output of BALDUR.BAK
- now reconstructs BALDUR.SAV
- prompt before overwriting an already existing backup
-
Well, I tried it, but it does not fix my problem. Whenever I enter Beregost, my game crashes while the area is being loaded. I cannot move to the area using the console either. The same thing happens.
I had the classic Beregost bug before with just a SOA tutu install, but now that I have TOB on as well, it is worse. I guess there is nothing to do but to install the whole thing again and hope for better luck...
-
Can you reach Beregost via console in a new game rather than a saved game? If not, then there might be something wrong with the original file, which may need a re-install as you say.
-
That was starting from a new game. I reinstalled everything using SOA tutu again, and it works fine now. I also took the full install of SOA rather than just recommended. It chews up a lot of space, though. I wonder if it is ok to uninstall SOA when the conversion is done?
-
Hello -
I wonder if it is ok to uninstall SOA when the conversion is done?
If you used EasyTutu, yes. If bg1tutu, no.
-
I get into the Beregost field, see it for a second, then the game goes CTD, leaving a black field and windows tells me that it is no longer running. I tried this fix, it tells me the save is alright. Are ther any other things that might be wrong? Multiplayer game. Can I mail or PM someone my savegame?
Thanks, Al

Is this the first time you tried to enter Beregost in your current installation? If so, then this utility won't help you and some mod is corrupting your Beregost area. What are the textual contents of your WeiDU.log?

No, I'm hours into the game, finished Nashkell, sold my first scalps etc.

Thanks for the quick response, Al

OK, I had a look at your saved game and it seems there aren't any problems with the area itself. Also, the fact that you can see Beregost moments before the game crashes means that something other than area corruption is stopping your progress. That doesn't help all that much, since there are still a wide range of possibilities of what is happening. But certainly, Beregost Crash Fixer can't help you.
To keep things simples, I would suggest finding ways to avoid the crashes from happening (and if you can find a pattern to the crashing that certainly helps), keep multiple saves (like you seem to already do), and avoid saving inside Beregost.
Sorry I can't help more than that.

Thanks for all the help. I'll see what I can do and if anything helps... I'll let you know if you want.
Thanks again and take care, Al

Seems all I do on IE forums is beg for help, so sorry about this.
My savegame's been afflicted with what behaves very much like a classic Beregost bug crash (ctd 1/3 through the loading) but it's apparently not the standard issue since the Crash Fixer doesn't find anything wrong. Since I'd had multiple, succesful visits to Beregost before this problem occurred, and my attempt to enter Beregost on a new character ended with the same crash, I assumed the next step was a full reinstall but no dice. The fresh install is now showing the same issue.
The only port of call I can see now is to start removing mods and see if that helps, but the sheer volume I'd have to wade through is more than I can face immediately after doing a full install with all of theml earlier today. The fact that this problem didn't show when I first started has got me clutching at straws wondering, is there anything else it could possibly be? At this point I'm more than half-tempted to write-off Beregost rather than spend half a day uninstalling mods one-by-one :P

Did you modify your installation (install new mods, uninstall others, re-install others) following your last successful visit?
, and my attempt to enter Beregost on a new character ended with the same crash
Was your last successful visit on a pre-existing saved game?
So, what I'm thinking here is that you might have change your installation in some way but then continued an old saved game (which actually has the Beregost area saved inside the saved game). But then perhaps you decided to start a new game, and that's when Beregost area is pulled from the game resources, and some mod you installed/uninstalled in the interim caused some problems.
-
My last succesful visit was on a pre-existing savegame, as were all but one of the failed visits. The one anomalous failure was on a new game with a new character which is what threw me, making me wonder if the area file had perhaps been corrupted in some way. I hadn't installed or uninstalled any mods since my last succesful visit but I can't say for sure that I hadn't re-installed/modified any of them; I'm in the process of trying to check for that now.
Finally, thankyou for your quick and thorough help. I'll keep hammering away at the problem with the pointers you've given me and see if I can make any progress.
-
Yeah, it might be one of the modified mods that could be the problem. Were all the successful and failed (except the anomalous one) visits from the same saved game? If not, it could well be that the saved game got corrupted, which prompted the new game, and then the changes in mods broke Beregost for good. in that case, you could attach the latest saved game in case.
-
Yeah, they were all from the same saved game at various times. I've uploaded the saves here (http://willhostforfood.com/files4/1272759/Kthara.rar) but your help so far has been great and I've dived into IWD to stave off the IE withdrawals so I'm pretty well resigned to the idea that it's doomed ;)
-
The game seems to load Beregost fine on a vanilla EasyTutu installation, so I'm thinking there is a mod problem. Can I see the textual contents of your WeiDU.log file?
-
That's peculiar, I tried copying them over to a fresh install of tutu (100% mod free, just Easytutu and the water degreenifier) and they appeared to be incompatible. Just to forewarn you, this is rather on the large side. I tend to get a bit trigger-happy with mod downloads ;)
On second thought, it's so huge I've put it up on WHfF again to spare your thread the spam. (http://WeiDU.log link) (http://www.willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=54740)

Version 1.6 now up, adds French translation (by Isaya).
They are in incompatible, but I'm tricky because I extract your Beregost area file from your saved game and import it into a a new game that I saved.
There are quite a few mods that possibly affect Beregost in your installation. Unfortunately, I don't really have the time to trawl through them all for you. I'm suspecting one of them may be the cause of the problem.
-
Thankyou for playing at being my personal tech support for so long, all your help has been greatly appreciated and I'll see what I can do with all the information you've given me to work with :)

Best of luck. :)

Bloody brilliant!!

A bit out of date with help for Drizzle and the other guy, I was futsing around with mod installation with easytutu and having the same late in game beregost crash problem that this crash fixer didn't seem to help with... after installing things one at a time (with a generally similar setup as Al the dumb) and loading my save and heading to Beregost I found that the only thing in all of my insallations that when installed led to crashes and when left out didn't was the ToB-Style NPCs v.7 from The BG2 Tweaks. I don't have any clue what kind of conflicting is going on to lead that mod to correlate to crash but I figured if anyone's still having trouble with this crash fixer not working and are having the same problems (i.e. vanilla easytutu allowing entrance to Beregost AND an early save oddly enough allowing entrance to Beregost but later in the game not being able to get in consistently) perhaps removing ToB-Style NPCs might be a temporary fix. Just as another random note to the conflict I experienced I never actually entered Beregost in the game I went through and still had this problem when trying to go there the first time which is why I was freaked out originally because I hadn't worried about the Beregost Bug up to that point but now it just seems like ToB-Style NPCs is part of the problem. Anyway, I hope this helps for those of you coming here thinking you have the conventional Beregost glitch and are fretting and if I'm completely wrong about this because of some modding tech stuff that I don't understand I apologize for wasting people's time.

Interesting, based on the pattern of reports I had it narrowed down to 6 possible mods, and BG2 Tweaks was one of them. I'll have a closer look.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank You!
(You can gather from my enthusiasm that this worked: My aold save game is allowing me back into Beregost.
