Yes. Into which game did you install this mod into ? Cause you might have something that overwrites the animation and so you might get the wrong one...

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.

I'm playing Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition. I also installed BG1NPC, Neera Expansion and Wand Case mods.

Is it with the Siege of the Dragonspear... and if so, did you install the Modmerger tool before the mods to incorporate the SoD to the game, so there's no text freak outs and bad resource troubles.

No, I didn't install SoD. And I didn't install Modmerger either. And it's not on Steam or Gog. I used the installer from Beamdog.

I prefer the giant mushroom any day. It's been mentioned over at Beamdog forums. Some animation incompatibility.

Is it possible for qwerty123456's diff patches above to be converted by someone into a patch mod proper for end users? Or if they are valid fixes, to be included in a currently maintained fixpack somewhere (eg. BWP fixpack, which already has Packmule patches)?

Here: Attached File  w_packmule-v1.4aplus.zip   9.01MB   54 downloads

 

I can only comment that one of those changes allows the mod to be installed without the Infinity Animations mod... but it will make the mule look like a Moose... what the others do, I can't go into particulars. The mod is still not compattible with EET, unlike the BWS Fixpacked version, but you get that via BWS instead of manual install.

I claim none of the responsibility ... or credit.

Ouch! How do ~100 lines of diff balloon to a 9MB Zip patch? I assumed it would be possible to patch over the existing text files quite simply without replacing all of them AND the animations.

That's not too helpful, no. I presume it still allows the correct IA mule animation to be installed and works with it, though.

 

Thanks for the help.

The archive is the complete mod, to utilize the above patch to the original files, one would need to run BWS like compilation program... which weidu nor msdos can do by themselves as the above is not programmed for that, but from a merging tool ... meaning that it's far more easy to just remake the original files by hand if done by hand in the first place to ONE mod.

When I did my last EET setup I didn't see packmule as an option. Is it hidden somewhere or do we need to install it ourselves while BWS is paused to get the fixpack version?

Not sure where you found information about an EET compatible packmule. I never found any, nor any usable version for EE. The mod seems to be abandoned, so little hope there will be a version that works for EET.

If there is a trick to use it somehow, it is not via BWS or Fixpack.
