That one I have no information on.

[megamike15]

they should be. i remember his romance factoring into weather he turns on you or not during the new final battle. 

[DavidW]

I'll put it on the list to have a look at some point. Is it actively maintained?

[JMKarlsson]

Just to be clear, does this mod work with BGII:EE?

[Endarire]

@JMKarlsson
According to this, aye!

[Guest Jay]

Is there compatibility with SCS?

I'd be inclined to enforce the Ascension->Iylos install order, by telling Ascension not to install if Iylos is there already.

The Ascension readme, updated as of the 10th of december, still pretty clearly states that Iylos should be installed before Ascension.

As and when Iylos handles Ascension correctly, I'd be inclined to enforce the Ascension->Iylos install order, by telling Ascension not to install if Iylos is there already.

@Gwaihir this is the whole quote.

I would need to check what the current status is. As in, I don't know what the status of Iylos-Ascension is currently. I know that last time I checked, I didn't notice anything that would need my input but Ascansion was updated since then.

Sorry,  I wasn't very clear.

Thing is, Ascension has metadata for install order, and in Project infinity is showed as going 'before Iylos':

Saving components: Supported
Description:
Ascension is a collection of changes to Throne of Bhaal, aimed at providing a richer story and more tactically interesting gameplay. Its largest component completely rewrites the finale (chapter 10) of Throne of Bhaal, adding new enemies and new allies; other components enhance the tactical challenge of many of the key battles in Throne of Bhaal, improve plot-central dialogues and player abilities, and more.
Global Rules:
AFTER: EET
BEFORE: EET_end
BEFORE: spell_rev
BEFORE: stratagems
BEFORE: wheels
BEFORE: iylos

 

The readme states the opposite. I just wanted to point out this discrepancy that might confuse other players like it confused me.

@Gwaihir The PI metadata is correct because it reflect recent Iylos 2.7 updates. The Ascension readme is outdated and I will update it.

[Gwaihir]

Thank you @AL|EN.

The Longer Road:

The Longer Road version 2.0.0 was tested against all possible cases and outcomes of the finale and should not cause any more problems.

I have install errors with latest version of Ascension on an EET install. If anyone could have a look i would be very grateful and it could save me some time.

The following components are not installed :

Ascension:0;Ascension - Rewritten Final Chapter of Throne of Bhaal
Ascension:10;Ascension - Balthazar can be redeemed
Ascension:20;Ascension - Improved Sarevok-Player Interactions

I have been updatint to 2.0.2.3 and did an install with the beginning of my EET install with PI. It didn't go well with Ascension. I then did an install of Ascension on a clean BG2EE and everythink looks fine. I guess the issue has to do with one of the mods intalled before Ascension  :

Mods Installed in BGEE prior to EET Core	Version
DlcMerger	1.3
BG1 Unfinished Business	16.4
The Stone of Askavar TSOA	2.2
Tenya Thermidor	1.5c
Sirene NPC	2.81
Drake NPC	1.61
White	2.4
Verr'Sza NPC BG1EE	5.4
EET Core
Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition Trilogy (EET) : EET core	13.4
Atypical Content Mods
High Quality soundclips for BG2EE extended content	1.2
UI related mods

lefreut’s enhanced UI (BG2EE Skin)	4.4.4
EEUITweaks User Interface Mods Collection	3.8
BG:EE Classic Movies	2.3.1
Bubb's Spell Menu Extended	4.1
"Sensitive" mods
Ascension	2.0.23

 

Let me know if you need some other files (and which ones). Thanks in advance

The Setup-Ascension.debug does not show any install errors, it's only the log of a successful install of "Slightly improved cutscenes".
