Does this: http://iegmc.shphock...161G_Manual.pdf still apply with all the new versions?

Obviously almost every single major mod that goes with Big picture has changed since then including:

TDD: No longer a 1.0.3 to 1.0.3a patch? Isn't on the TDD site at least.
SOS: now 1.13 version
TS: Now a BP compatible version instead of the 5.0 and 4 associated patches

etc etc.

I ask because I keep getting an error when installing BP (paraphrasing): Cannot find character association [Long_bow], a parsing error for almost every major BAF file.

I've tried reinstalling the whole kibbutle several times with the same result.

Those instructions are pretty outdated. The order (install most mods before BP) is correct, but now, you just need to extract any archive you download (from this site, gibberlings 3, sorcerer's place or chosen of mistra; you should be able to find the most recent verson of almost any mod on one of those sites), run setup-[mod name].exe, one mod by one.

A good guide is the Big World Setup guide, which can be found on this site.

Really man ? Really ? What is the "Big World Setup guide" ? I don't see one... you might refer to the Big World Project.pdf file, but that's ... well a sort of a guide for manual setup of the BiG World mods... but the automated setup has been the corner stone for the last two years.
Just use the latest Big World Setup, and it will sort you out. Yeah, you might fail the first ten times, but that's nothing compared to the mistakes you will cause without it.
