I was wondering if someone could make or could tell how to make a TC template mod for... BG II or other game.

It would like this:
- Games starts in a small area (for testing etc)...
- there is no connections to excisting in the original game areas etc.
- weidu Instalation, where we can set starting level, starting area etc...
- example "add area" component :)

It would be quite usefull :)

It sounds like you're looking for a version of the game Stripdowns we did over at TeamBG a while back. Ken's still game to get these going, perhaps you'd wish to jump on board as well. The download package is not generally available, but I'm sure we could get you a copy. (It's currently being revamped by Ken.)

Please don't use the stripdowns. I encourage everybody to avoid them like the plague.

What you propose actually sounds more practical for TC development than the stripdowns, but still... considering the number of TCs undergoing serious development, I don't thing providing people with a friendly basis for them is really particularly essential.

What I want to make is a small, later maybe bigger TC like mod, OCTCM and OOIEM mod...
- modder X downloads AREA adding "mod", makes his own area, creatures there etc (Object Oriented Infinity Engine Modding :P). Sends it to the boss, he ads it somewhere to the TC. (Open Community Total Conversion Mod :lol: )

I'm planing to start with a simple TC with some "nonrelated" areas like in BG I, with random creatures/encounters :) starting from 1 lv B)

Heya, Riklaunim.

You may be interested in a post I recently made at TeamBG's forum. I have a version of this for ToB nearly ready for public release. You can download and try the "TC Core ToB" (a.k.a. "ToB Lite") if you contact me there on the TeamBG forum. Its a 4.1mb download and installs ToB essential BIFs from the CDs and a stripped down KEY and couple of BIF files (made by Sim) for a total install size of about 570mb as a core basis for TC creation. Please see the topic linked here:

And thanks for the vote of encouragement, Sim. :P
