Query re mods added to BWP install

26 October 2013 - 02:13 AM

The Bwp batch file install method seems too complicated for me so I have opted for the BWP setup as almost all of my desired spell choices appear if I install the spell_rev mod  followed by some components of the spell pack mod and then the spell50 mod.

That said, I have one last query:- when checking the BWP set up engine I find that it  refuses to recognise my secret of bonehill download and one or two very minor mods(COM Encounters). If I go through and install everything else as instructed, would it be the end of the world if I then installed the secret of bonehill mod and com encounters mod  via weidu afterwards? Or would that foul up the whole installation? Thanks!


Problem with spell revisions mod

22 October 2013 - 02:03 PM

There are serious problems I have now with the spell revisions mod, It allows me to deselect certain of its more uselessly altered  spells by altering the .tp2 file with /* and */ but the trouble is that in order to get at the .tp2 file I have to unravel/install the spell revisions mod and pick it out. Once picked out I cannot set it back together again so the BWP installation refuses to recognise that I have the spell revisions mod in the relevant download folder. If anyone can give me some advice on how to fix this problem, I would be most appreciative, thanks!  it is just a great pity that the spell revisions mod creator did not choose to install his mod in components of 1,2, 3 or 4 similiar spells per component like the lost crossroads spellpack creator did. Then it would have been dead easy to sort this out.


BWP Installation order of two spell mods

21 October 2013 - 02:08 PM

I am planning to do a BWP install including an altered spell revisions mod and some of the components of the spell pack lost  crossroads mod so as to avoid clashes. It would greatly help me if someone could tell me  which of those two mods gets installed first before the other. Thanks a lot!

 

Oh, and I would also like to know the installation order of the spell50 mod in relation to the 2 mods I mentioned above. Thanks so much!


Worries re downloading

25 September 2013 - 03:41 AM

Hi,

 

I recently bought a new PC after having a crappy very old Mac. I only just read that the damned windows program compatibility assistant would prevent me from installing BG2 TOB over  BG2 SOA. I am now deeply worried that this might have on other games I have recently installed. Would this program compatibility assistant have prevented me from installing neverwinter nights/shadows of undrentie/hordes of the underdark? Those 3 NWN  games was all installed in one download  so i am hoping it went through. Would this blasted program compatibility assistant have prevented me from installing patches to my other  games? I am just not sure what harm this blasted thing has done to me.


Query re big world project

20 September 2013 - 03:57 PM

Where do I go to download the big world project? Thanks!

 

Also, another question:- if I installed all major compatible megamods and most of the compatible smaller adventure mods as well, how much xp would my party gain in all, roughly? It is just that I plan on having all my 6 party members be fighter/wild mage/ thieves or fighter/wild mage/clerics, using the savegame editor to achieve this and other changes, so I want to know how many levels these 6 triple-classed characters  could get by the end of the game if they did every possible extra adventure mod as well as the usual game.
