{Announcement} Let's Play Baldur's Gate Trilogy Mega Mod Series

 

oqawmfb3gg55ftwzg.jpg

 

Hello Old Friends,

 

Sometime ago I burned out on Baldur's Gate and had to take break from playing & helping out on the forums.  I started playing & modding other games.  After hearing about Baldur's Gate EE I started thinking about playing again, but didn't have the game installed on my computer.  After starting my YouTube channel and making Let's Play series I started thinking it would be fun to make a Mega Baldur's Gate series.  So I took a week to get a BWS install setup & working the way I wanted.  I want to thank The Imp, Leonarde Watson, and all the others who help make the BWS.  I know I have more to say to my friends and I will do it as I reengage with the good people here.

 

This series is going to be my playthrough of Baldur's Gate Trilogy from the start of Baldur's Gate to the end of Throne of Bhaal with very many mod.  This includes the mods: Big Picture, Sword Coast Stratagems, The Darkest Day, Shadows Over Soubar, Check the Bodies, Never Ending Journey 2, Tortured Souls, Tower of Deception, DSotSC, The Drizzt Saga, Secret of BoneHill, Dark Horizons, Fishing for Trouble, Colours of Infinity, NTotSC and many more!  I will be posting my WeiDU log.

Please post feedback here or on YouTube.

I'm glad to see you playing the BGT saga and using BWS, but I am dissapointed that you aren't using the Sandrah mod.

Thanks Tzarnal,

 

You can see me get my butt kicked a few times I am sure.

 

Bill,

Honestly I didn't know enough about the mod and I wanted to get the series started.  I did install many added NPC mods, but plan to mostly stick to the core NPCs this play through.   If the channel get enough subscribers I might do other playthroughs of BGT Mega mods.

We have had a few tough fights and have made it to the Gnoll Fortress and are going to rescue Minsc's Witch.  Will you join us on our quest?

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Thanks, Imp my friend!

 

The one thing I would not use again is ~BG_TRAVEL/SETUP-BG_TRAVEL.TP2~ #0 #0 // New travel system between Baldur's Gate City areas

 

It might be fixed now, not fallowing the fix threads right now, but that is the one major bug I have had so far and it is not that big of a mod.

 

I am uploading a new episode right now as I type so there will be a Friday night episode.

I used BG Travel recently and didn't notice any problems, so I think the particular bug you saw has been fixed.

Zed Nocear was gracious enough to immediately update the mod as soon as a report was filed :)

Very good to hear it was fixed!  Since I hope not to make changes as I don't want to mess up my current game I have not been checking to forums for fixes.

 

It is always good for modders to keep their mods up to date.

The most useful link is the one to Chev's channel:

https://www.youtube....XyI7ICVCM5E3nPA
That way you can see the latest uploads, as well as any prior uploads that you may have missed out on.

There has not been a new upload of Let's Play Baldur's Gate Trilogy in five days...
I hope this is not the end of the series for the time being, it has been very good so far.

A few things are up.  For now I have gone back to episodes 5 days a week.  I have a few episodes uploaded.  1 more (which I should have released) is OK.  Been busy with work.  The Next episode after that I am in a copy right dispute.  Someone used the audio from BG II in a song and now claim exclusive rights to that BG audio.  I don't want to pay for the rights to use BG audio.  I should have time later this week to contact Beamdog (which I think is the current copyright holder on this) and see what they can or is willing to do.

Unless they wrote the audio themselves they surely would have no right to copyright it? The general BGII copyright would override them.

You can stop recording audio whenever the song happens, turn the recording volume to zero so it won't be heard when the video is played.
Alternately, you could alter the relevant Are files to remove the song concerned.

Oh, there is a function to remove the song.  It has just upset me a bit & I have been busy with other 'Real Life' things.  It is the audio track that plays the dialog as you leave Irenacus' Dungeon.  The song uses it as an intro.

 

Sorry for the delay.

For the time being, the series has stopped due to legal problems discussed above...
