[ILuvMySwNaughtyEVE369V22GN]

I AM installing the bellow mods in Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition That Has EET installed on it. How do I get the proper files in the directory, at this stage with IWD1 in EET? Because I caunt just copy Icewind Dale into BG II EE directory because there are files with the exact same name. Any help graciously accepted and appreciated!

• IWD1/2 available in EET already.

  It can be installed on "pure' EET or after other mods and before Sandrah Saga, except point 5. 

  Completely playable, but have some things to do. This is not k4thos version.

  Order to install:

  1. Subrace https://github.com/tipun81/Subrace-mod/releases - this adds IWD subraces to EET

  2. IWD1 in EET https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zmy3x9DqgOoxghNSXM4C66S1OyYkzSRH/view?usp=sharing - reworked IWD1 to EET engine

  3. IWD2 in EET https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6S7YhWgqE42r9MeYh3zvOmMthF-M-yt/view?usp=sharing - reworked IWD2 to EET engine

  4. Mod to access IWD1/2 content from EET https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W8-u4N-0VUlxdRbfa44mVOjtVUzSgE8b/view?usp=sharing - this add points to enter IWD1 from Ulgoth's Beard in BG1 after second visit Candlekeep and to enter IWD2 from Copper Coronet in BG2 after Underdark.

  I believe that IWD1 can be achieved by another method from Friendly Arm from Sandrah Saga and there is additional content.

  5. Worldmap patch: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10sjNteQKaRJYhNO5-F0EaOQ_JW2WZgKq/view?usp=sharing - this adds worldmap icons of IWD1/2 to BP-BGT-Worldmap if you use it. Should be installed after BP-BGT-Worldmap.

   I tested IWD2 and it is completely playable, but exist some issues: 

  1. Alchemist in Dragon Eye can not prepare Histachii Brew, this must do somebody from you group with big LORE.

  2. Shaengarne Bridge cannot be rescued, only way is defeat all there.
  3. English dialog.tra contains text from the original game, so sometimes the description of items does not coincide with reality - in some places the balance has been changed and the style differs from that adopted in BG.

  The author is aware of the first two points and I believe that this will be fixed when he has time.

  On the third point, I promised the author to correct the English text in accordance with Russian, but I feel that this may take too long and the result may be unsatisfactory, since English is not my native language. So if anyone wants to help in this, that would be great. And accelerate the release.

  I believe this enough to fix this before the release status.

  Can you please clarify?

  Your subrace mod should be installed as early as possible, regardless of IWD-mod or not? Is there a requirement to go in front or behind any specific GUI mod?

  Hi, Roxanne! 

  I don't think it matters exactly when to install subrace.

  I installed subraces directly before IWD and there are no problems. Of course, it can be installed without IWD. As for the GUI, if we are talking about this: https://arcanecoast.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=1604 then I installed it after everything, after EET_gui (for today, simply replacing the files in override) immediately before the EET_end - there are also no problems. GUI mod, of course not required for IWD. IWD will work with any GUI.

  Thanks for the clarification. I was just irritated to see it at #1 in your instruction but it is clear now.

I think you should express yourself in a more mature and grammatically correct way.

For various reasons, I am not supporting that tool. These reasons include ad hominems, FUD, unofficial edits, corrupting the 2.6 patch and a wrong install order which cannot be fixed easily.

100% viruses in any links in this thread...  

EDIT - post seems to have been edited, I take it back now.

Well, my first impression of this being a copy-and-paste bot remains unchanged.

Yes, please, squash it.

I think they might be a normal real person.

[Graion Dilach]

I'm with Mike here. My assumption is an edgy fledgling (age 10-13) going "yeaaah boiiii" behind the monitor. I was a village librarian for a year and the kids coming from the families with the worst financial background used the library computers to play Minecraft. Sure, that was 5 years ago (ohgod) but I just can't let that image out of my mind seeing these posts.

[jastey]

If you talk, walk, behave, and name yourself like a duck spambot you have to expect to be treated like one.

[tipun]

There are no viruses there. I can guarantee it. But to play, you need to install another mod.

[tipun]

I'll drop everything on the github one of these days.

I'm sorry. I am not a bot. But I have a difficult job in the mountains.

User posting "I'm not a bot" are especially suspicious.

/kidding. And yes, I can't contribute anything constructive regarding the thread topic.

Hello everyone! I wanted to clarify that the tipun (like me) speaks bad English and in previous messages he thought that it was about his mods (which are links in the first post of the topic) and that he was confused with a bot) He really lives in the mountains now and the Internet does not work very well for him, he wrote seriously.

Russian does not always correctly reflect the meaning of English jokes and humor, unfortunately. I explained the situation to him and everything is now OK :)
