Pretty much the topic title.

 

What are the mods that you use with the BWP that are not included with it? Mods you can't play without or ones you just enjoy.

I thought there were very few mods that weren't included in BWP. I play an old version of Improved Anvil.

It's not included in BWP due to countless compatibility issues I must deal with constantly (just found out that Robe of Vecna gets auto-destroyed, so I need to completely edit baldur.bcs and baldur25.bcs AGAIN from the start. why won't Nearinfinity edit my previous edit in override?). The author is aslo opposed to playing his mod with almost anything else installed.

I guess there quite a lot of omitted mods, from the sound of it. Exnem's Vault is pretty good, if you like OP items. Anyone have a complete list?

Erhm, which NearInfinity are you using ? The v1.3.131005 should be somewhat the closest to the last(15 days ago). And is the game directory you took that file from the same you put the override onto etc... as you can open the file from anywhere you like with instead of the game directory command, by using the Game -> Open file... -command which opens a folder browser, load the file, make  the edits and then save it to a place you know and then put it to the override folder or something..

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.

Oh, you're probably right. I just used the 5 year old file from my harddisk. It saved my last edit into override, but for some reason I can't view the new file in my old NI. Thanks again for the link. I'll check out the latest official NI version. Hopefuly I can just update the edit i did of BALDUR.BCS and BALDUR25.BCS, because the edits took me over an hour last time.
