Thanks everyone involved in modding, especially in BWS construction, You are my Heroes   
 
I'll try to add NEJ3 to my game. Yes, Vlad (genious NeJ author) don't support megamod, but this is what i waiting for last 5 years   Can someone tell me, what mods deffinately broke with NeJ, maeby there is some list, and where i should manually stop BWS to install NeJ. Some compatibility patch needs manual install to, ideas?

Also i hadn't find Fields of Dead in BWS menu, mod reedme say it's fully BGT compaible, so when it should be insalled?
 
After some feedback from BWP-players, i choosed to try BWS with:

Spoiler

BP (AI and Harded enemies, without harder Ascension and fully avoiding SCS),

BGSpawn
all big mods (DarkHorizons,Drizzt Saga,DsoSC,NtotSC,SoBH,TS,TDD,SoS,CtB,FfT,Sandrah),
expansions (Expanded Thieves stronghold, RR [Revised Thievery, Shadow Thieves], UB for GB2 & BGT, Alternatives, Assassinations, Back to Brynnlaw and half of standart & recommended quest mods),
ToB additions (Longer Road, Ascension, Wheels of Prophecy, ToB Revisited [except Pocket Plane & Fight in any order], Turnabout, Vecna, Ding0's Oasis II),
NPCs (BG1 NPC Project, Imoen Romance [old version 1.202], Banter Pack and Crossmod Banters with many addiional NPCs - there so many of them that i can't choose best for now, so why not install them all?
Also BWS have SO MANY fixes and mod-balancing tweaks, so i'll install them all as recommended (including BDash, Turambar, BP-Balancer & Sandrah patches for Big mods).

TrimPack, Biffing, additional stores, items, spells, kits and most tactical mods avoided to simplify testing

 
If there woudn't be any reply in next 10 hours, than i'll try to install all mentioned mods with NEJ3 on top of them (code preventing install with big mods removed already), but i still doesn't know when install WorldMap

BP-BGT-Worldmap should be installed after all mods that add to the map, so usually at the very end of your install before generalized biffing. BWS does this automatically.

NEJ3 compatibility -- no idea. You can look at the conflicts for NEJ2 in BWS (click the mod and each of the components in selection view and look at the text below).

You may look at micbaldurs thread on this forum and his install order - otherwise no idea about NEJ3 (does it require the NEJ2?, it is not in the list). And PLEASE do not mention my name in this context, I have NEVER encouraged an attempt to combine these mods in this way.

[@vGur]

The ONLY thing Roxanne have said, is that Big mods are not so *buggy, cheesy, unbalanced junk*, I'm grateful to her for interest to my topics  ,

it's only ME who choosed to try them all in one time.

 

Return to this topic, NEJ3 isn't require NEJ2. Only mods that as BWS said don't support NEJ is Skie, Branwen, Garrik, BG1NPCs SoA, SCS, Spell_revisions, SpellPackB6, spell50, Derat's kits & ToBEx blindness. Also component "more BG1 items" can conflict with same component of BGTTweaks, Worgas with NEJ "Boo" component, ImoenRomance with NEJ "Continuos Imoen", TDD with NEJ "Continuos Branwen"

BWS patched NEJ2 during install, what is the reason for it and how to do it manually?

BWS patched NEJ2 during install, what is the reason for it and how to do it manually?

Throws Lollorian under the bus and stops the train. Here's Lol's notes:
 

NeJ, NeJ2, NeJ2pat, NeJ3 - Neverending Journey v6.94
micbaldur's GiveItemCreate() Protagonist -> Player1 fix

micbaldur's TAFFIC11.CRE and TAFFIC12.CRE missing TP2 corrections

Quiet's AR8701.WED crash fix

micbaldur's Larrel cutscene fix

Still pazzling  

Where In original BWS is NEJ2 installed? After BGT or after another Big mods? BWP manual said NEJ overwrite many files, so it should be installed early, but what should be installed prior?

[agb1]

In selection tree-view click the upper left menu and change to "install order" view and it will show the order that BWS will use for installation.

My BWS selection has few red warnings, i know they are harmless (as Sandrah with Teleport mod), but how i can start without removing them? BWS don't let me

If you see a ** after the white line(s) then it is a warning rule, so you can right-click and choose "ignore this problem" if you want to continue without resolving that particular conflict or dependency.

[@vGur]

Thanks for reply, but Red lines have not this "ignore" option, solved this by game.ini edition already.

 

micbaldur's GiveItemCreate() Protagonist -> Player1 fix - still need to be implemented in nej3

micbaldur's TAFFIC11.CRE and TAFFIC12.CRE missing TP2 corrections - seems to be fixed, as nej3 tp2 has lines that created taffic11 & 12

 

Quiet's AR8701.WED crash fix - can You look at nej3 version?

micbaldur's Larrel cutscene fix - nej3 still used old (not working?) ExitArea(), need to be fixed to DestroySelf()
