Mahatmah Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hey there, I thought I would ask for some of that community wisdom. It's been a while since my last install, which was an extensive EET one, but this time I'd like to introduce my significant other to the BG series. This implies going back to the French versions and subsequently, ranting on Beamdog while going for a manual BGT install. I have no problem with that and have done several of those installs as well in the past, thanks to this community. However I have been out of touch with the latest changes for a while, and after doing my homework in preparation for the install, still have a few questions that you guys may help me with : 1. Big World Fixpack : This is apparently not maintained anymore, but would you guys advice against using it at this point ? I have seen some mods making the extra effort to include some of its fixes natively recently. 2. SHS being down, I could only find some crucial mods on Github, but they do not include the usual .exe installer, only the mod files and a .tp2 file. Would you happen to know how to make those a standard Weidu mod, or would you happen to have those somewhere ? Namely I'm talking : - TobEx [https://github.com/Ascension64/TobEx] - Baldur's Gate Trilogy 1.21 (I have 1.18 but looking for the one taken over by skellytz) [https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/BGT-WeiDU] - All the "Friendship" mods from SHS [https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/ValygarFriendship] 3. Some mods I cannot even find at all outside SHS, would you happen to have them in your archives, namely: - BGT Tweak Pack (I have version 11 in my archives if this was the latest ?) I don't think this one was absorbed by Tweak Anthologies, was it ? - BGT NPC Sound 4. Ascension used to be installed before BGT, but latest versions seem to be ok being installed after, however I've seen a report advicing against it. Any recommandation ? Last but not least, I included my mod list and load order below, would anyone spot any issue. Spoiler - Big World Fixpack - TobEx - BG2 Fixpack - Ascension - Baldur's Gate Trilogy (then do Setup-BGTMusic.exe) - BGT NPC Sound - The Lure of the Sirine's Call // Extended Lighthouse Area component crashes on BGT. Do not install this component on BGT(Tutu) until this is fixed - Thalantyr Item Upgrade - BG1 NPC Project - BG1 NPC Music Pack - BG1 NPC Ajantis expansion - BG1 Unfinished Business do not install the following UB components (already BG1 NPC): Angelo Notices Shar-Teel Finishable Kagain Caravan Quest Coran and the Wyverns Kivan and Tazok Branwen and Tranzig - Romantic Encounters BG1 // Optional - Assassinations - Eilistraee's Song - Herbs and potions add-in for BG2 - Weimer's Item Upgrade - Valen (Needs "No drow avatar" from Tweak Anthology) // Optional - Banter Pack - Jan's Extended Quest - Valygar Friendhsip (No .exe https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/ValygarFriendship) - Mazzy Friendship (No .exe https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/MazzyFriendship) - Korgan Friendship (No .exe https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/KorganFriendship) - Cernd Friendship (No .exe https://github.com/SpellholdStudios/CerndFriendship) - Korgan Redemption - Goo NPC - Unfinished Business for BG2 - NPCFlirt Pack - Romantic Encounters BG2 // Optional - Animal Companions - Rogue Rebalancing (except components 9,10,11,12,999) Mise à jour du Combat a deux armes pour les voleurs et les bardes Revisions des kits des voleurs Ajustements raciaux propres pour les capacites de voleur Revisions des kits de bardes Progression des sorts propre aux bardes Equipement supplementaire pour les voleurs et les bardes Equipement ameliorable Revisions des roublards Rencontre avec les Elus de Cyric - Sword Coast Stratagems - BGT Tweak Pack - Thrown hammers (only visual component) - Rogue Rebalancing (remaining components) Revisions des capacites de haut niveau du voleur Revisions des capacites de haut niveau des bardes Amelioration des Voleurs de l'Ombre - Tweaks Anthology - Turambar Fixes Gerde Fenten Helm of alignment Dragon backstab - Anomaly Fixpack - BP BGT Worldmap - Generalized Biffing if slow - Widescreen Bigger fonts if needed As always, thanks to all the mod creators and contributors for their time and dedication.
