Hello

I'm just about to dust off and install BGII+ToB but I was worried about the install order of the mods I'm going to use, could someone please tell the best order or if any problems might happen

Mods to install:
SoS (WeiDU)
TDD (WeiDU)
TS plus the large patch
Big Picture :)

The ones I'm worried about
Check the Bodies
Freedom's Reign of Virtue MiniMOD
sporeboy Portraits
Redemption
One Pixel Production
UnfinishedBusiness
Planar Sphere Mod
Planar Sphere Return
Munchmod
Item Upgrade
Ease of use

I've checked the compatibillty list and all are listed as C, but I dont know if some will overwrite files needed for the other mods. Also are there any other mods I should consider?

Thanks :thumb:

Just to save you some troubles: For the current version of BP you'll need to use the 'old' (non-WeiDU) versions of TDD, SoS and TS ;)

As far as I know, the other mods should be fine, there is a problem with CtB and the Docks diestrict, but there is a workaround somewhere on the forums.

You might also want to have a look at Never Ending Journey, if you like Ice and Snow that is B)

And if you want to have a really big game, try BP-BGT including Sir BillyBob's mods. Be warned however, that installation of that one can be a bit tricky.

Bugger, thanks for the heads up

I thought this was BP-BGT only, thanks

Tales has to be installed for BGT. Sorry but it was built with that mod installed. BP requires ToB to be installed, you may be surprised at the number of people that claim they don't have that program either.

Your best option is to see about ordering it online (usually it is still in a bundle package with the original game) or hope someone will post it on a pirate site or newsgroup. Not that I would ever support such actions.

Tired of Bhaal? Try some classics mods instead:
