Well, I have been out of the loop for a while, but I know the new BWS is up to date now, so use that... and the NEJ should work, it's detailed in the "BWP readme".1 Should I use BWP or should BWS do the job?
2 Is what I want to achieve even possible? (no mods overwriting eachother causing bugs etc)

Yes..., well they are fixed so they become to be... there's been a lot of effort put into the fact that they are... the fact that you are missing is the BiG World Install and Fixpack 's... and that they need to be used for the readme and the installation to be at all possible.I have actually read the readme, however there isn't any information on mod compatibility.
So sorry to ask again, maybe it's just an obvious thing, are all the big mode compatible? (TDD, SoS, CtB, TS, RoT)
The BiG World Project is an extensive package with instructions, downloader, installer, bug-fixes and text-patches
(only in the German edition), that allows a smoothly and faultless installation.

The Comprehensive Extraction Guide!!! (wip)
Firstly, this guide requires either the freely available 7-zip (www.7-zip.org) or WinRAR. If you don't have either, get 7-zip, as it's completely free.
(Note: I have never used Winrar before, so someone who does can help contribute working WinRAR instructions. This guide assumes you are using 7-zip)
1. Download all mods to a folder of your choice.
2. Make 3 folders in the folder you used to store the mods - weirdlypacked, infinityanimations, and nsis.
3. Move approiate mods to one of the subfolders. Here's what goes in what:
weirdlypacked: Anything that does not extract cleanly into the BG2 folder. Examples: BoM Item Pack, Check the Bodies, Grimuar, Planar Sphere, PoF Kitpack, Realm of the Bhaalspawn, Stuff of the Magi. These need to be extracted seperatly.
infinityanimations: Content for Infinity Animations: Examples: Any archive that starts with IA_, Belhifet_and_Marilith, Moinesse_edits_IAised, NWN_Misc, Shadows_harpy_frostgiant. These need to be extrated seperatily, into <BG2 Installation Dir>/infintyanimations/content or in the case of IA_BG2_Restores, <BG2 Installation Dir>/infinityanimations/restores. To do this, right click the archives, select 7-zip/Extract Files..., then for Path mode:, select No Pathnames. Select the desired directory and extract away.
nsis: Any NSIS (Nullsoft Something Installer Something) exes. Examples: practically anything from Pocket Plane (exceptions: Banter Packs and Allison), anything from RPG Dungon, and exe files that have the PPG logo, a llama on a computer, or the NSIS logo as icons. These need to be handled seperatly.
4. Extract everything else. Select the first file, then scroll down, hold shift, and click the last file. Right click on the archives, then 7-zip/Extract Files.... On the dialog that pops up, select the BG2 directory, then extract away.
Again, if anyone has WinRAR instuctions, please post.

My only comment to the last post is a recommendation to use the updated BWS.

Did you select the "Darker Side of the Swordcoast" mod ? It might have error-ed to download or extract also...
Cause the above would come up if you don't have that mod but try to install the "Northern Tales of the Swordcoast" -mod. If that's the case, you need to remake your selection... if you did select them both, then you need to rerun the "BiG World Setup.vbs" again later, as it get's an update at some point, delay of day two at most.

Well, ShadowTek might be unpleasantly surprized on the changes I would make. And besides, I would make my own thread with the same kind of topic... and I don't actually have that much experience with the play end of the BWP, just the useage of the BWS and the earlier projects that lead up to it. And the -as of late- absence, doesn't always help much. Ascension64 might be busy too... there might be a better ways to reinject more blood to the projects vanes. Say Beleg33 ...Yes, this is the maintainer of the guide speaking. Since I'm way too occupied with DnDOG to actually stick around for long on this site, I'm planning on giving permissions to edit this guide to someone else. I'm thinking Jarno or Ascension64. I may finish the extraction guide soon, but this is just a note.

Will BWS allow me to select components? I have read elsewhere that it might not, but honestly I've been browsing back and forth for awhile now and can't remember where I read that, so that info might well be outdated.
Yes, just click the red high lighted button in this:
