tcdale Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm about to reinstall BG1/TOSC/SOA/TOB for the first time in a few years, with some minor mods, and I want to make sure I have things as-right-as-can-be BEFORE I screw something up. So, if someone could tell me if the below install order looks okay (or not), I'd be grateful. Also pointing out anything like "YOU FOOL! THOSE ARE INCOMPATIBLE!" would be nice: Official Thingies: 1) BG1 2) TOSC 3) Official TOSC patch. + Direct X 8+ patch 4) BG2-SOA 5) TOB 6) Official TOB patch + Direct X 8+ patch BG1 Thingies: 7) BG Trilogy 8) BG1 Banter Packs 9) BG1 Tweaks 10) BG1 Unfinished Business 11) BG Quest Encounters 12) Gatekeeper (just in case) BG2 / TOB Thingies: 13) BG2 Fixpack 14) Unfinished Business 15) DeArnise Romance 16) IEP Banters 17) Flirt Pack 18) Oversight (Is this redundant with the Fixpack?) 19) PNP Celestials 20) Romantic Encounters 21) Spellhold Gauntlet 22) Wheels of Fate 23) Widescreen mod 24) Shadowkeeper (just in case) Link to comment
Jarno Mikkola Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 1) BG12) TOSC 3) Official TOSC patch. + Direct X 8+ patch 4) BG2-SOA 5) TOB 6) Official TOB patch + Direct X 8+ patch BG1 Thingies: 7) BG Trilogy 8) BG1 Banter Packs 9) BG1 Tweaks 10) BG1 Unfinished Business 11) BG Quest Encounters 12) Gatekeeper (just in case) BG2 / TOB Thingies: 13) BG2 Fixpack 14) Unfinished Business 15) DeArnise Romance 16) IEP Banters 17) Flirt Pack 18) Oversight (Is this redundant with the Fixpack?) 19) PNP Celestials 20) Romantic Encounters 21) Spellhold Gauntlet 22) Wheels of Fate 23) Widescreen mod 24) Shadowkeeper (just in case) The Fixpack needs to be installed before the BGT, that for sure!I wouldn't install the Direct X's cause it's old, like ancient compared to the new once, so it can cause bug, perhaps not in the BG game, but somewhere else! "Oversight (Is this redundant with the Fixpack?)" That's definite no, it's needed if you wish it's tweaks... it's a tweak mod... What's "BG1 Banter Packs"? If it's the BG1NPC Project v17... And I am very sure you do not wish to install the BG1 Tweaks to BGT, as there is BGT Tweaks and BG2 tweaks for it. The gatekeeper doesn't work with BG2 or BGT... The rest... so that's: 1) BG1 etc. 2) BG2 etc. And from this on, you'll install all the content to this game folder! Yes the BGT is BG2 mod so it's installed in there. 3) (G3)BG2Fixpack 4) BGT 5) BG1 Mini Quests and Encounters v4.x 6) BG1NPC Project v17, install it here. 7) UB for BG1 8) Spellhold Gauntlet 9) Romantic Encounters 10) (Banter Pack) 11) IEP Extended Banter 12) Unfinished Business 13) Flirt Pack 14) The Wheels of Prophecy 15) P&P Celestials 16) Oversight 17) BGTTweakpack 18) BG2Tweakpack 19) Run the setup-gui.exe 20) Widescreen mod And then install the Shadowkeeper to somewhere else.

grogerson Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 @ tcdale - Use BG2 Tweaks, not BG1 Tweaks! The first is for BG2, BGT and Tutu installs, the second for vanilla BG1 (yes, some of us like playing it that way ). Link to comment
tcdale Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 Hrm. I'm installing them in the order that Jarno suggested, and ran into this problem around #10 (the installation fo the IEP Banters). After choosing how much time i wanted between banters, it began uninstalling other modifications (apparently from either Unfinished Business for BG1, or maybe from the Tweak packs, not sure), and then tried to reinstall them. Some worked, some failed. Example from the WEIDU.LOG: // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #22 // Item Corrections and Restorations: 7 // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #23 // Area Corrections and Restorations: 7 // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #24 // Permanent Corpses: 7 // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #25 // Elven Charm and Sleep Racial Resistance: 7 // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #26 // The Original Saga Music Playlist Corrections: 7 // Recently Uninstalled: ~BG1UB/SETUP-BG1UB.TP2~ #0 #27 // Sarevok's Diary Corrections: 7 ~IEPBANTERS/SETUP-IEPBANTERS.TP2~ #0 #8 // Install Banter Accelerator? How much time would you like in between NPC banters in-game? -> 30 Minutes: 3.2 Examples from the DOS window: [dialog.tlk] created, 126250 string entries SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED 30 Minutes SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED The BG1 NPC Project: Bardic Reputation Adjustment SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED Open four Cloakwood areas (everything but the Mines) SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED SixofSpades Extended Sarevok's Diary SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED The BG1 NPC Project: Player-Initiated Dialogues NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Ice Island Level Two Restoration NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS The Mysterious Vial NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Additional Elminster Encounter NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Safana the Flirt NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Appropriate Albert and Rufie Reward NOT INSTALLED DUE TO ERRORS Place Entar Silvershield in His Home ------------ What's happened and how do I fix it?
