Ok, I'm installing the BWP and following the install instructions found in the latest English install pdf (BiG World v11 english.pdf) when I get to the Never Ending Journey 2 v68 setup it says:

SKIPPING: [Never Ending Journey Second Edition v6.8]
Please install Baldurdash v1.6 before installation of this mod

I have Baldurdash v1.68 installed as per the installation instructions from the pdf. Anyone have any ideas why NEJ isn't seeing my Baldurdash installation.

NEJ TP2 has a line
REQUIRE_FILE ~override/AR0702.BCS~ ~Please install Baldurdash-WeiDU v1.6.~

BDash TP2 has a line
COPY ~BDash\bonusmer\sAR0702.bcs~ ~override\AR0702.bcs~

So you need component 0 intalled. I'd check if that file was copied into the override-folder during the installation. And make sure you didn't biff until then.
THINK! - It's not illegal.

OKeej I installed all the games first and did the patches. Then i downloaded the big world setup.
I let it do its thing and it downloaded a lot of mods.
but in the end about 20 of them are missing, it wont install anything. It says Some critical(essential) files are missing.
Above that message is a list of the files(mods) that are missing.
So i thought i could just find them manually and some i did find i put them in the bwp downloads folder and started over again.
But the same thing happends over and over again it doesnt even recognise the files i manually downloaded.

Do i have to do something with the Bwp instalfix pack maybe?
If you want i cant download the hole thing again and send you the exact files (mods) that where missing.

Mods, like ??? Details... still not enough. Well, maybe someone that has the exact knowledge of making the install exactly like you did... but I can't tell you a thing, from the above.

Like:
-Is it that you don't have an archive tool for example that's needed.
-Was the mod files missing for some odd reason... and why.
-etc.

Well... erhm, I don't really know the state of the old BWS, but it doesn't seem to be up( to date etc.) anymore, so I am giving you the next best thing. The step by step guide to BWP... and you might want to skip the subtext that's it's for newbs ... it's not only for them actually.

BWS is doing very well unless you have the old one. Get it from here and make sure you do the check for updates when you launch it.

I dont know if this is the right topic...but i guess its close enough. I Just installed. The bwp and it works very wel. But now that i am playing i kinda want to be free in my choise of weapons as a mage and i like to be able to wear any armor.
Now the question is can i instal such a mod over the mega mod or do i need to start the party over again.
If i can do it over the mega mod. Pls tell me how.

You guys do great work!!

Try reading this part of the FAQ (and the whole thing is a good read too) and see if it helps.

Tough one, these components will patch a lot of stuff (mainly items for their usability) and leave your override folder full of thousand files, which may severely impact gameplay fluidity. I'd suggest reinstalling.
For weapons usability/proficiency changes there's a component of Level1NPC that does it well. For armors, I think there is at least the component from Item Revisions but it comes with penalties to casting.

BG2 Rules, Tweaks and Spells / Level 1 NPC / Tweak weapon proficiencies for some classes.

During the installation of that component it will ask you a few questions on how to tweak them exactly.

About the Level1NPC component. Will it give me the chance to use a 2 handed sword as a mage. or will it just give me a chance to chance npc skills? Btw i dropped the armor idea if it has speed penaltys ill never use it anyway(ill stick with elven armor)
.One more thing before I start moding again. I looked ad a lot of mod for the spell system. well i like the spell system. But i kinda wanna have unlimited summons
And more important: It seems that in the install i have now. Remove magic an dispel magic and even breach Are WAY WAY WAY TO powerful they remove all protections always. There are no difficult mage fights like this. which mod does that. it drives me crazy and i cant find it from just the discription in the setup.
Many tanx for the help. this is the last thing ill bother you with btw
