Hey this is my first time posting on this board but i have enjoyed the mods from around here
for years, and i appreciate the work from the people on these boards, anyways i am starting a new
character for the first time in 2 or 3 years, im going to be an assassin. i have developed an mod install list, but i have few questions and i was wondering if somebody could help i am using the 4 in 1 dvd boxset.

BG SOA
BG TOB (from the 4-in-1 Box set)
BG2 Fixpack
Expanded Thief Stronghold
The Bigg Quest Pack*
Tower of Deception
Dungeon Crawl
Assassinations

I got this information from browsing the well known IE mod forums (pockeplane, gibberlings, banshee, blackwyrm, etc) first of i cannot find a download for the bigg quest pack so if anybody has a link i would like to use it but it is not that big a deal, and secondly i couldnt find anything about anybody installing the Four mod so i assume that is the right place for it, but if anybody could help me with this list it would be much appreciated
thanks

http://www.spellhold...ios.net/ie/bigg is where the Bigg stuff is found.

The Four - if I remember correct - has to be installed last. At least according to it's writer. I don't know if it require Improved Anvil which is a total conversion.

Here's a direct link to the mod's download page.

thanks for the links, but i am not trying to use the bigg picture that is just what i used to put
the list together. I am trying to figure out the correct order and was wondering if i install them in the order of that guide if it would be correct for a regular tob game.

in the readme for "the four" it says that it requires improved anvil, but im not exactly sure because they are both new to me.

thanks

Do yourself a favour, get the Big World Setup program, do the "recommended" settings, then "further customisation" of which mods you want. Include those ones on your list (or not) and maybe a few others you haven't heard (newer ones perhaps, since your list is rather dated). It'll do the rest for you, including downloading, figuring out what goes where, and installing. Best way to do what you want.

It does... and if you believe what the Improved Anvil support forums say about, you are required not to install the other stuff, because they are not compatible, or they are not permited with Improved Anvil.

Like Miloch, I would suggest you to do is download this program, it will download and extract and install all the stuff above, as long as you choose the options right... and "The Four" -mod is not in it.

so all i have to do is download and install the bigg world project, and then move all of the downloaded mods i already have into that folder and it will install everything in the correct order.
I read somewhere that you are not able to install the actual components of the mods with the bigg world project, I just want to make sure i do not install the wrong components because i know some of the mods affect the same things in the game.

thanks for the help

You are with the beta link I gave (not, I think, with the one Jarno gave, but I could be wrong). Like I said, choose "further customisation" and you can pick individual components.

thanks for all the help
