I am fairly new here & l have played both IWD1 & 2 with all expansions fully patched but without mods.
I would like to try some mods now.I have found the mods l would like to try out for both games & listed them below, what l need to know is what install order would be best for both games.

IWD 1

Aruil's Bane v1.7
IWD1 Unfinished Business v3
IWD1 Item Upgrade v2
IWD1 NPC's v2
IWD1 Tweaks v10
Improved Bams
Widescreen v2.31

IWD 2

IWD2 NPC's v2
IWD2 Tweaks v1
Widescreen v2.31

Thanks in advance

The installation order isn't a concern for some mods, but this is how I would go about it seeing that you have Auril's Bane listed:

IWD1:
Widescreen Mod
Auril's Bane
IWD1 Tweaks
IWD1 Item Upgrade
IWD1 Unfinished Business
IWD1 NPCs

IWD2:
Widescreen Mod
IWD2 Tweaks
IWD2 NPCs

Can anyone else confirm this install order.

Thanks Azazello.

As you both have different install orders do any of you have any problems with the game.

Not personally, although I don't run Auril's Bane or the IWD1 Item Updgrade. The install order I posted is based on what I have myself (no issues in game) and what the ReadMes for the other mods state.

I don't have any discernible problems, maybe some quirks e.g. some scrolls selling for different price than others in the same level, but that's definitely due to install order.

IwD1 'engine' is really broken compared to BG2 so don't immediately assume that weird--or lame--behavior you see in the game is due to the mods or install order.

Here is a direct download link, from this page.

And if you are still unable to get either... I have attached this:

That was quick :o I tried the first two links but it was your attachment that worked for me (no clue as to why I can't access pocketplane), thank you for your help :) i'm a long time lurker/fan of this website, but i've never registered.. the fact that I got help even though i'm not registered says alot. Again, thank you, the thought of playing with a dull party after playing BG for so long was dissapointing to say the least._.
