There is no sling in DSotSC or NTotSC. Not sure where you got it but if a monster in DS or NT had the item, they had a standard item in the game, not something that comes with either mod.

I have found that sling, I guess, but I don't remember where. It has a different icon and indeed does not report the increase in Thac0 in its description, but when I access the PC's report the +3 is present.

Alex

i don't exactly remember where i found it but i've been under the impression that it was in an area near the forest of the forgotten souls, an area that doesn't exist in vanilla BG1

i think i got a +3 sling somewhere around the forest of fogotten souls

i get the information it is +3 when i put my mouse pointer over the icon - then it says "sling +3", but there's no information about its increased +3 quality in the item description - it looks exactly like a desription of a normal sling

has anyone come across anything like that, is it really a +3 sling?

i use the following mods:

can i:
1. uninstall GUI, DEFJAM, and WorldMap 6.3

2. install Worldmap 6.5, then DEFJAM, GUI and continue playing with my old saves?

also with my mods, do i need Revised Worldmap 6.5 tp2?

do you know where to download it from (BGT compatible version)?

in BG2 tweaks v3 you can install the following tweak :ToB-Style NPCs - This component will alter all joinable NPCs to join in the same fashion as Throne of Bhaal, where NPCs immediately level-up upon joining, with a caveat: all creature files are moved down to their lowest experience version, so if you pick up an NPC early enough they will not level upon joining. However, later in the game they will, allowing you to select weapon proficiencies, thieving points, and other goodies from the level-up process.

how would my game change if i installed it - would that mean that e.g. if i was lvl 20 and a lvl 20 mage joined me, i could select his proficiences, etc as if backwards?


frankly speaking, i can't work out this explanation, maybe someone could help


could someone please give an example of joining NPC SoA vs ToB regarding the above-mentioned twweak?

thanks

and i think i read that you no longer need to delete

CD1:=E:\CD1\
CD2:=E:\CD2\
CD3:=E:\CD3\
CD4:=E:\CD4\
CD5:=E:\CD5\
CD6:=E:\CD6\

inside baldur.ini as it's done by the WeiDU, right?

correct

yes, but i've just resintalled my mods and BGT 1.04 without editing buldur.ini and i didn't notice any errors during installation but after installation the lines:
CD1:=E:\CD1\
CD2:=E:\CD2\
CD3:=E:\CD3\
CD4:=E:\CD4\
CD5:=E:\CD5\
CD6:=E:\CD6\
are still in the baldur.ini - is it how it's supposed to be?

and i think i read that you no longer need to delete

CD1:=E:\CD1\
CD2:=E:\CD2\
CD3:=E:\CD3\
CD4:=E:\CD4\
CD5:=E:\CD5\
CD6:=E:\CD6\

inside baldur.ini as it's done by the WeiDU, right?

i think that with BGT 1.02 one was supposed to use a BGT_fix_files -

"unzip it to the BGT/Compat/BGT/Replace folder before installation because:

The BG2 Fixpack v1 alters a script block in AR0602.BCS to prevent players exploiting a failing in the script to keep their equipment in SOA. BGT also alters this same script block in order to manage the transition from BG1 to BG2; as a result, any game with both the fixpack and BGT installed (which should be all games with BGT installed) will hang during the starting cutscene of BG2."


is it still necessary with BGT v1.04?


regards


ps
i tried to find some info on that in the readme files but i didn't find anything

if i installed BP, would eSeries and gMinion mods do the same as BP? do i gain something extra by installing them? are they compatible?


thanks


ps

i think i read somewhere that gMinion doesn't have to be installed with BP

but i have installed BPv177, where should they go - after or before it?


do you mean that i shouldn't use eSeries?



also, i noticd there are some AI improvements in D0QuestPack_v23, should i install them too, in what order? leave them out?



thanks

what happens if while generating my character i choose a portrait of a real NPC e.g. Edwin's or Nalia's? will such NPCs work correctly in the game?

i use BGT

when i start BG1, my Imoen uses the old BG1 portrait, in BG2 she has a new one, will the portrait change when i start SoA? also, can i do something to actually use the BG2 portraits from the very beginning of BG1 - i prefer them



thanks

one silly question - when do i start the chores component? if i start the game from the beginning and have BGT, will i start the chores at the very beginning of the game when i'm inexperienced in Candlekeep, or when i have killed sarevok and i'am starting SoA?

thanls for the answer

by the way - what are these chores, could you give 1-2 examples? some people say they very boring and it doesn't make sense installing them



is chores the same as 'The "tutorial" area of Candlekeep' mentioned in the mod readme?

Or, use this handy little patch that Yacomo made. (can we sticky this somewhere, because i dont know if this mod is on any mirrors..)

when i'm using BGT and installing mods in this order:

0. Full BGII SOA+TOB+26498 patch (and BG1+ToTSC+5512 patch or BG Original Saga if installing BGT)
1. BG2 fixpack v1
2. NEJ2v42 + NEJ2v602 patch, and NEJ2 biffer v3 if using BP-weidu (but see *note)
3. SoS v1.11 and/or TDD v1.11 and/or CtB v1.8 and/or Tortured Souls for BP v6.09 and/or Reign of Terror v2.0 - in any order (but note: NEJ2 and CtB have some incompatibilities. be sure you want to install both of these before you go ahead and do so)
4. Baldur's Gate Trilogy v1.02 (read the instructions in readme file before installing) and NeJ2-BGT compat patch if using both NEJ2 and BGT
5. Dark Side of the Sword Coast v1.85
6. Northern Tales of the Sword Coast v1.45
7. Secret of Bonehill v2.05

8. All other mods, except the ones on this list (they should go after Big Picture v177)

9. Big Picture v177
10. BG2 Tweaks v3
11. DEFJAM XP fixer v3
12. BP-BGT Worldmap v6.3


is there a particular place in the list where the cap patch should be applied or it doesn't matter?

regards

can this patch be applied multiple times during one game without messing things up - i mean i first chose e.g. 50% creature XP, play a bit, change my mind, and can i now choose e.g. the 75% and still continue the same game without problems?

sorry, this may be off topic but i have one more question - during installation of BG2 tweaks i got an error - when i was trying to install the component connected with item identification by innkeepers, the installer wouldn't install this componennt and there was a message that there was an error - the installer couldn't find or copy something (don't remember exactly), i had to leave this component out eventually, but i installed the rest of the components that i wanted without problems, and the rest of the mods too

so my question is this - has the problems with installation of this component messed everything up and it's better i install everything again? or can i go on to play the game?

i noticed that most mods have something like Backup folder - so it would seem like they backed changed files up in case there should be problems...

If you have to change anything in it make sure its the very last mod you have installed so your other mods dont uninstall and reinstall. I know its the day and age of weidu but installing and reinstalling mods does weird stuff sometimes.

the only mod i have that follows it is the map 6.3

You will be alright then, the map isnt so bad to reinstall

ronin

just to make sure - so if i wanted to change the XP settings, i would also have to reinstall the worldmap afterwords?

i was wondering if people are actually using the DEFJAM mod, and if so what XP setting would you suggest? (assuming there is a mega install)


cheers

is there a BG1/2 editor that allowed detecting possible conflicts among mods that have been installed?

there are sometimes such editors for other games, e.g. Morrowind has one or two simillar editors and they can check the mod files and produce a report about possible conflicts regarding graphics, dialouges, items, etc

i was wondering if there's anything similar for BG or if anyone has ever tried to do something like that for BG?

Can any of the Worldmap folk help out here? Guys????

(the rest of the table is the same)
does it mean, there are errors in mine? or does it depend on the mods installed?

by the way i do have problems getting out of the forest of forgotten souls area (all the other areas are labeld 'unreachaeble)

a few of my last mods on the list are:

i've just got Revised_BP_BGT_v6.5_TP2_for_NO_BGT_Installed.rar and inside there's Setup-BP-BGT-Worldmap.tp2

do you mean that i have to:

1. uninstall Game Graphics User Interface
2. uninstall Defjam
3. uninstall worldmap

4. replace old Setup-BP-BGT-Worldmap.tp2 with the new one

5. install 3,2,1

?

(by the way, i'm using BP-BGT-Worldmap-v6.3 with some modofications done to links.tbl) - or do i have to install ver 6.5? i'v just noticed it is vailable?

fabio's bard's ring is equipped at the beginning, but it is kind of red and when i take it off and put it into his inventory, it cannot be equipped again


i have v2.05


any ideas how to solve this problem? i tired to use an item editor and edit the 'bhbardr.itm' file but it doesn't seem to help...

i'm in the forest of forgotten souls and i found Banshee and fought her but she disappeared from time (or maybe used teleportation, i don't know), and finally she disappeared and i can't find her, i couldn't kill her, i've been looking for her walking round the whole map but she's nowhere to be found


any ides where/how to find her?


regards

ok, she reappeared at midnight but not exactly in the same place as at the beginning, more towards the cottage
