    Every time I try to go to the Pocket Plane, I get an error (BGmain.EXE). It doesn't matter where in the game I am. This first started happening during my fight with Irenicus in Hell. But, somehow I got past it. I can't seem to get past this one. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    I'm a little confused. How can your pocket plane be involved with Irenicus in Hell? The pocket plane is TOB and Irenicus in Hell is the final battle of SOA. Just wondering.

    [​IMG] He probably means it started happening after Irenicus in Hell.

    1. Were you able to get the thing to work properly at one point?

    2. Did you install any mods recently?

    3. Did you do major changes to the files on your HD recently.

    I'll give you $100 if the problem is not being caused by a corrupted file.

    Reinstalling ToB should fix the problem (or just get someone to send you the area file.)

    All you guys are awesome with so many answers. First off THANKS!

    No, I do not have the latest patch.
    When I did fight Irenicus it was in SoA but the same error came up.. Somehow got past it. But, now it's every time I try to get in the pocket plane.

    i took out all mod files from the folders exept the Raistlin mod.

    No major changes to the HD

    I want to re-install but I don't have access to SoA disks, and I can't find a way to just re-install ToB (which I have access to)

    I have tried to Console to other areas of ToB but the same thing keeps happening. Any further input. Again, thank you.

    You do have ToB installed, right?

    Get the latest patch, that might help.

    You lost your disks? Sorry, there's no way to reinstall just ToB without having to install SoA.

    Which mods? Some of them do some pretty wierd stuff to the ToB code that destroys some of the needed files.

    Yup, Rastor, I have ToB but not the other disks (I checked e-bay and it's really cheap). So, guess I'm going to have to buy new SoA disks, *shazbot!*.

    I have the Raistlin Mod, Tzshop, AbyStore and morituri mods. All files are out exept Raistlin.

    I downloaded the new patch for SoA and the 2 official ToB patches, but haven't installed them yet. Because, I was wondering if I should take out the Raistlin mod before I install the patches. I don't want to because I'm using the files for it.

    I'm going to get new SoA disks. Maybe it's time I just wiped everything clean and start over. This error is bound to drive me absolutely mad before long.

    Also, Rastor, Thank you for being so willing to help. And everyone else too. I come to this site more and more because of how friendly everyone is to each other.

    Yes, you're going to have to remove all mods before patching. The order is:
    -ToB
    -ToB patch
    -Baldurdash (if you want it)
    -Non-WeiDU mods
    -WeiDU mods

    I'm not sure which Raistlin you're referring to, nor am I familiar with morituri, but the other two don't touch those files, so they're fine if you want to use them.
