Scottbrooks over at beamdog seems to have made a merging tool, making mods work with SoD! 
https://forums.beamd...-dltcep-can-use
Now the question is, should this be part of BWS? And how to implement it? Or at least a link on the overview page?
Cheers.

@-Sauler- Yes, you can use bigworldinstall.bat to remove files, AFTER bws installation. I would actually recommend it, if you biffed and/or need disk space. It isn't dangerous for the installation, but cleaning won't let you alter your bws installation anymore (well not properly anyway). Meaning you wil have to install anew bws if you plan to add or remove components.
You can also just start playing and if you find out that your setup works for you, you can always go back and do the clean-up. If you then suddenly decide to change your setup. well you'll have to do everything again. But that isn't too much of a hastle if you let BWS make a Backup for you and if you also exported your setup configuration. Just let it restore it, import your configuration, change the things you want, save and export the config, and let it install anew. Testplay, and if you like it, and are sure you don't want to change anything else, do clean-up. No brainer.

Also found this very appealing gui for bgee (it works for English as well...):
and bg2ee:
AND HIGH RESOLUTION ICONS!!! 
Antique Amber Gui

or
http://www.littlemis...es/date/2015/06
1. Best way to install and make it compatible with the Big World Map, is to put the GUI into the override BEFORE it.
2. Also make sure to install the Icons AFTER mods that add spell icons.... Should be very close to the end....
3. For best result, when using BGEE with BG2 spells and such install first BGEE Icons and then BG2EE Icons...
The GUI is of course not compatible with other mods that edit the GUI/Recolor the GUI Bar/etc...
The icons are though... 
Name=Antique Brass GUI for Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition
Rev=1.0
Size=51485984
Description=Norimichi Tanaka's alternative GUI

Rev=1.0

Rev=1.0
Size=2276943

Edit: It seems the download links are blocked and the mod components can only be downloaded manually from the site... O_o

Wanted to report some misleading dependencies for BGEE: TDD as in the The Darkest Day and Region of Terror are, as far as I can see, not part of the BGEE setup. Nevertheless, they are marked as preferred for the Spell Level Progressions (like over BGIITweak Pack components 2260-2290)... Also looking into an incompability between "More Style for Mages" and "Tome of Blood" (probably Armor Casting)... not sure yet. The "Circlet of the Archmagi" of "More Style" suddenly disables casting... 
I still need to look into that. Edit: With a "Minimal" selection of mods and "More Style for Mages" as well as "Tome of Blood" Circlets won't work anymore for mages....

Just a small thing: There seems to be a problem (?) with Scales of Balance and EE Keeper. EE Keeper won't show the changes from the the new WPO and worse, if one saves characters (I like to respec my followers) the saves won't be loadable/will cause the game to hang... Also the collapsed WPO won't display properly. If I don't install SoB no problem, everything I else (I installed on BGEE) works. Cheers.
(Maybe somebody could also check and verify that?)

@The Imp: Yeah, I get that. Just thought that maybe a log could be made when extracting and using that to delete the files? 
Edit: Maybe just logging the setup*.exe and the corresponding main folders?

Also, when restoring the backup, it would be quite handy to delete the contents of the override-folder. When I forget to do that there is always something in there, that will prevent BP AI from installing.

Good morning. I was thinking: You know what would be great? A better clean-up. The ol' one deletes some files, but doesn't remove most of the extracted stuff. And maybe it can be an automated, last action of BWS?

Hey! I saw that you added Scales of Balance 5.0. I also saw that you've tagged it as a conflict with Might and Guile.
Scales of Balance, components 121-122 WPO seam to conflict with Might and Guile, 250-265, which is a shame. As the M&G components also overhaul abilities (Rage, etc.). Now I was thinking, wouldn't it be perfectly fine, to install the M&G components first, and then the SoB part for the profiecency system overhaul (effectivly overwriting this M&G entry)? Or do we really need to ask the author of M&G to seperate the abilities from the profiecency system?

Hey Guys! There seems to be a problem (at least for me) with Xan's Friendship. The Big World Fixpack patches setup-XanBG1Friend.tp2 which then causes this problem:
and the MODDER output:
(When overwriting the file with the original there is no installation error, but of course it isn't fixed/bwp fixes is reverted.) Any clues? All I'm reading is that charset isn't found/recognized... So any help would be much appreciated.

Directives from the Director
So about uploading: There seems to be a threshold! I was able to upload (sic!) two files. These files are about 7.5mb. I tried to upload another, which is slightly larger than 10mb. This attempt failed. So I'm reaching the conclusion here, that any file equal or larger than 10mb will be denied, reading the message "No file selected for upload".

Hi White Agnus!
I'm really looking forward on Dragonspear and with it the completion of EET. But for the meantime, do you think it's possilbe for you, since you fixed some of the issues this mod has had, to fork out a BGEE Version? Cheers!

Indeed! But we can remedy that since the engine allows us to.

I installed Git 64bit and the BWS doesn't recognize the installation. When I type git version I get 2.7.0.Windows.2 Mmh.. But downloading 30mbit for BWS isn't much.. I mean, we're not in the 90s anymore...
