This post is a temporary repository for links to various threads that were important to people using version 1.00 of the toolset, but that have been de-stickied because version 1.01 has overcome the issues that were discussed in them.

Don't Install the toolset if you are running Windows XP Service Pack 2 or lower

- The new toolset version can still run into the same problem on SP2 as the old one, since the fault lies in the MSSQL installer and we couldn't change that. But the installer now recognizes SP2 and gives the user a strongly-worded warning not to proceed unless they're prepared for the potential consequences.

New toolset database pre-release - should fix the plot GUID bug

- The new toolset installer comes with a fresh new database containing correct GUIDs and string IDs. See http://social.biowar...abase_migration for information on how to migrate your content into the new database.

Toolset and Steam

- We've rearranged how the toolset installer manages the database so that it should no longer be an issue if your game is installed in a path longer than 58 characters.

Toolset Install Stuck at Execute:regsvr32.exe

- The installer should no longer hang if regsvr32 doesn't respond with a return code. Installation should proceed correctly whether regsvr32 responds or not.

Toolset lightmapper project

- The lightmapper included with toolset 1.01 is fully updated.

What verion of database i soud had after new install ?

after install I got

Toolset version 1.0.1008.0

database version 1.0.0.194 the same as in 1.0 toolset. So what Is wrong ?

Version 1.0.0.194 refers to the underlying structure of the database, which thankfully, has not changed since the original release of the toolset.  We have included a version number on the Single Player Module.  If you go to File>>Manage Modules, then click on Single player and then Properties, you should see a field called Version. with the latest release, the version should say 1.02.

I am really interested in installing the toolset and give it a try. But I do have SP2 and dont really want to deal with the headache it might cause me if I do install it.

So my question is this. My windows vista run updates from time to time, but it dont upgrade to SP3. I've checked the microsoft page and I think I can DL Sp3 there, but I wonder what migth happen with all the other things I have installed if I do get SP3.

Now that the X-mas week have arrived for me I got lots of days off work, which could be used to learn the ropes of the toolset and maybe make a few modules. Would it be safe for me to install SP3, or is it enough I maybe install some SQL thing that seem to be the culprit?

The SP2 issue is with XP.  However, you refer above to Vista, which does not have that problem.
Even with XP running SP2, the problem only occurs for some users.  If you are running XP SP2 and decide to install the toolset,  do some research before hand, make sure you are backed up, and have read some information on how to get your computer out of the reboot cycle before you begin, in case it happens to you.  For lots of people it does not happen, but when it does, it is not at all pleasant
The reboot issue is a SQL Server 2005 issue that has been resolved in SP3, otherwise, the toolset runs just fine on SP2. 

Some places to look for more information:

Whether you decide to gamble and install it on SP2 or not is up to you.  If you decide to do it, just make sure you are prepared for the worst.
