Need advice for proper install order?

[NumoT]

Okay so I just finished a run through of BG2 + TOB with alot of mods, however I encountered many crashes and errors etc on the way.

 

Now I want to play again, but this time I intend to use even MORE mods, so I want to reinstall and get the install order correct! Could someone please tell me what would be the right install order for the following mods:

 

-BG2 Official Patches

-Ascension

-Redemption

-BG2 Fixpack

-BG2 Tweaks

-Valen

-Solaufein

-Aurora's shoes

-Underrepresented Items

-Item Upgrade

-Check the bodies + Check the bodies fast forward

-Big Picture (Do I need the BP-BGT worldmap seperately or does it come with this mod?)

-BP-BGT Worldmap (needed for Check the Bodies right?)

-BG2 Tactics

-OnePixel Productions 2.7

-Rogue Rebalancing

-NPC Kitpack

-Dungeon Crawl

-Geomantic Sorcerer kit

-Spell Revisions mod

 

Please tell me if there are any incompatibilities or problems with installing this set of mods. Also If anyone has any other suggestion for fun mods I'd be keen to install more on top of these.

BWS.

Well, I believe if no large changes were made from the last time I checked, that the CtB doesn't need the Worldmap mod, as you don't have other mods that change the map... but still, I might be wrong. And no, the BP doesn't come with the Worldmap mod, as the mod itself is a compatibility maker between the large mods(CtB, TDD, TS(-BP), BGT, SoS... ), not BP, as the BP was originally consived of tiny mods compilation that later became an AI enhancement and encounter mod.

Anyways, the BWS/BWP will take all this into account as it actually fixes a lot of the minor mistakes the mods make, that make the other mods destroy each others. So it's just better to use already tried and 99% true and checked compilation.

Okay so I've done the entire big world setup but it seems that some things are missing or werent installed properly? I noted that there were some mods that didnt want to install, mostly BG1/tutu stuff because i only intend to play bg2~

 

But the biggest thing I've noticed is there was no Ease of use install or something similar?

 

So installing Weimers ease of use individually or running the g3 tweakpack individually and selecting relevant aspects e.g Stackable potions, arrows, scrolls etc will be fine over the top of this other install right?

 

Also looks like underrepresented items isn't here. That should install over top fine also?

 

Is it right that the BWS installed everything without asking me about specific options within each mod?

I bet you didn't read all the info's on everywhere... there is the option to select components, it's hidden in this screen in red highlight:

You are more likely to succeed with rerunning the BiG World Setup.vbs than with overwriting tweaks with horrible consequences.

 

Yeah, I admit it, I probably should have told you about the choosing components option already on the above post, my bad. Nope, not bad, we are evil remember ? Ahh.

ah okay thanks... Gonna redo the whole thing then T_T

Well, if you use the BiG World Setup.vbs'es backup system, you only need to restart it and it will do the clean install restoration by deleting and revamping the current install to be a clean in a few seconds.
