    [​IMG] I bought the game few days back (an special offer pack) so I started to play it.
    I played a bit and then I found the Easy v15 mod from Weimer's place, so I installed some components: bugfixes; infinite stacking; collector's edition bonus items; and randomized treasures; nothing more.
    The game played well until I reached the area where Nickademus is sleeping. I talked to him and finished the dialogue box, so after a few seconds, the game CTD with the message:
    "An assertion failed in ObjAnimation.cpp at line number 18811"
    So I came to the forums to search for some technical info and did the stuff is listed in that help page: clean temp, tempsave and cache folders, etc., but I always had the same error at the same part. Then I downloaded NearInfinity tool and searched for corrupted files and got lots; I uninstalled the mod and I got save game corrupted, I guess because the infinite stacking part because I had lots of arrows, bottles and scrolls stacked. So I uninstalled the game and re-installed and I have to start a new game; I have no problems with that, I just want to know if the Easy mod is the cause of the Nickademus error.
    Also, I searched for errors again with NearInfinity tool and got this:
    "File corruption search
    Number of errors: 1
    File: ICEWIND2.GAM Offset: 884h Error message: 4 unused bytes after Unknown(870h)"
    While the tool was searching for the errors, I got some error messages too:
    "Error reading TEST_01.CRE (same for 02 and 03)
    Unsupported version: V9.1"
    And the same for TESTOCLE.CRE.
    What that means? Will I have the same error again with Nickademus?

    I hope someone know something about this.
    Thanks.

    Your game should be fine, mine has it too.

    Edit: I think the problem is related to your objanimation.cpp file (which is probably corrupted during installation), and not because of the Easy mod.

    Edit2: Have you installed the latest patch yet?

    The game installs patched already (2.01). But I did patched the game again just to see if that fixed something but didn't.
