I'm longtime fun of BG1-2, now, 10 years after i want to replay them..
For Planescape there is awesome fantastic guide http://thunderpeel20...lly-modded.html
My question is, is there something similar for BG1-2, and if now, can you just advice me which mods should i install to fully experience BG1-2 on 26inch full HD monitor...

Thanks in advance!

Ever heard of the BWS...
The 26inch monitor is surprisingly small, when you use the 1920x1050or1200 setup with the Widescreen mod, yes, the same mod used in the Planescape... it's made to be compatible with all the Infinity Engine games.

Erhm, I don't think the bigger fonts mod is actually included, but that can be installed after the BWS has downloaded, extracted and started the install process of all the mods that you can choose to be installed within the BWS, just remember to make sure the "Further customization of your mod-settings" is selected, so you can actually make the choices.

You also might wish to read your language version of the .pdf files that are in here, there's English, Spanish, and German ones, they include the latest manual instructions for the setup... so as the BWS makes it all automatically, you don't need to follow it to the letter.

I also recommend that you read all the pinned topics in the Megamod Help forum we have, so you have an idea what you are doing.

one last question - i did Recommended Install of Big World...
As i understood it wont make any game breaking changes to the rules or plot? It is just compilation of useful mods, without altering original game plotline?

There's really no limits here, except that we all don't know everything.

Well, it some what makes a few options available, like the TDD and a few other big quest mods, but you can skip them if you don't like them... and you will if you don't take the NPCs that are needed for them in your party. Here's a bit more thorough look at what each of the options installs, if you look at the colors... just know that the Standard includes the Recommended mods too, and the Tactical includes both of those, and the broken eXpert install includes all of the mods in the list.
