Howdy!. I was looking for some help as something i used is having an unwanted consequence to my IWD game. Bare in mind, i may have d-loaded something else and completely forgot about it, but at the point where i started playing a new game the other day, i was sure i had only d-loaded the screen resolution mod. As it turned out, my eyes have gotten weaker with age and i couldn't see the screen with 1024X768 so i went back to 800x600. But now both my characters and the npcs are moving at ridiculous speeds to the point that i can't even cast offensive spells before the enemies close in on me.

So basically i need to know how to reset the party and npc speeds back to normal. I apologise for some of the vagueness but i had a heart attack recently and whatever dloads i may have also used long ago are lost somewhere in the burnt out grey cells. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all the help folks. Looks like everything installed fine. Now i just have to wait till i start actually playing them to find out if everything works but if it doesn't, i know exactly why already....issues with win7's supremely annoying and non-gaming friendly garbage like admin rights to name one of many lol. They definitely didn't make win7 with gamers in mind that's for sure. cheers.

ok i misunderstood what you meant. my bad. I just got back in fact with a newish copy of Totsc(used copy but in immaculate shape and free :-) ) and i had already d-loaded the de-greenifier after reading up info on the easytutu. I just finished my clean install of all games, all patched...ready to go. With my health in question, i intend to go old school for the next little while with bg/bg2, iwd/iwd2 and nwn 1 & 2. Hell if i understood more about dos i'd even install my VERY old school D&D silver and gold pack compilation lol but no.

Last question and i'll be out of e1's hair. I didn't read the read-me files yet on those tweaks and banter packs. are they self installing? or do they need something to install them with.. like that bgt or weidu thing, just as clarifcation. Then it's off to install and play. Though already i ran into a problem that sounds similar to the one i had with bgt long ago. I installed my bg2 as(E:program files\Black Isle\BGII - Soa) which is an exact replica of what i was offered under C: drive. But tutu keeps insisting on me specifying a path for "Baldur's Gate 2" as though it won't recognize BGII - SoA, yet asa i changed the file names in bgt long ago i started having issues.

bah! now we're getting into omfg this is getting complicated for this old mushbrain *sigh*. So even if i get a replacement disc for Totsc(which i may be in luck with as i'm on very good terms with the EB store here), i can't use tutu for the banter packs and since i don't like bgt it means no banter packs for my bg2 game *pouts*. so the list with tutu installed 1st and only the tweaks, fixpak and bg1 npc mod along with the widescreen mod. I guess it'll have to do.

ok based on all this feedback then i think i'll go with that list without bgt and sans ToSC as my disc is too damaged to play and hopefully in the right order...

Bg2fixpack
easytutu
bg1 npc project
banter pack
BG2 tweaks
IE project for more banters
widescreen mod so i can play at least on higher than 1024x768 and no more than 16?? x ???? resolution escapes me atm but that's max for my small monitor adn i'll try different ones to see which looks better.

sounds about right and this is the easier route for me as most of these sound super easy to install and set up.

Thnx for pointing that part out choochoo, i said i was going to add what i wanted....but never did. oopsies. I was looking over the bg2 tweaks info and that seems to be what i want so far though i haven't finished reading all the tweaks and changes yet. So is that all i'd need...bg2tweaks? or would i also benefit from some of those others mentioned by you and jarlo mikkola? I thought i tried that bigworld thingy but i had nothing but problems with it for some reasons which i can't remember(as i said, brain is mush and my memory is very very bad now). BG2 tweaks also sounds simple to install and use which is fine with me.

Mostly i wanted some bug fixes, minor tweaks that didn't overbalance the game etc and bg2tweaks seems to satisfy that need and as you said, i can simply say no to any i don't want installed. So any other ones you think fit into that criteria, can you just list them if they aren't already included BG2T. As said, i have to keep things simple which is why i'm avoiding things like new quests and such(imcompatibility issues) and trying to just stay with a few things that work well together and are simple to install.

Having recently built my own computer rig to use as my back-up computer to use for movies and surfing as well as installing and playing all my old school games(my hunky game rig is for modern games that require tons of processing power, graphic card muscle etc) i had a question;

I'm sure you've seen this question asked umpteenth times yet i'm asking for myself anyways, as some threads i read tend to bog down into arguments or boil down to personal choices and gets confusing and contradictory for the average bear after a time. I'm not interested in huge transformations or tweaks that represents 1 person's personal preferences though i do not judge or begrudge those people's choices, freedom to play what you like is paramount to personal enjoyment(ie...mages casting in heavy armor...i don't agree with that but some do). I'll give a list of what i want and what i've heard good things about as a general mod/fix etc. Might give you a better idea of what i'm looking for. Also bare in mind, i'm recovering from heart attack #6 so my brain is essentially mush which means it has to be a simple thing to install and run. If it wasn't for the Nexus' mod d-load/install utility for elder scrolls and fallout i wouldn't be using them at all with those games. That gives you an idea about what's left of my brain can handle as far as complicated installations lol.

Here's what i heard good things about.....BG1tutu(i like being able to play bg1 with bg2 graphics/interface as well as some carry over as far as rules changes to conform more with bg2)...that makes the transition between games more balanced and consistant. Also heard good things about this banter pack(though not sure if that's for bg1 or bg2...or both). I also heard good things about baldurdash and something a bout flirt packs. so to summarize in bullet point for what i heard and like:

-Baldurdash
-bg1tutu
-banter and flirt packs

sorry to be repeating an oft asked question but for all reasons stated above and more, i need to ask in my own thread. And i appreciate any and all help.
