Yeah this is impressive! I continued the same thread on the beamdog forum, since it was mainly the same people answering, but it really is a godsend for me, really streamlined the process. I should be able to start PI in a few hours and see how it goes, but this was already beyond helpful.

Thank you

Ah makes more sense, thank you

Ah that's great, than I'll make up my mind on the list of mods I want to run and I'll make sure to post the weidu log of the installation order that I chose, hopefully carefully. What do you mean by this? I assume a typo was involved

@Caedwyr I'm all for making the game more lively! And yes stability is what I'm looking to achieve, with a good balance of options and adventures to pick and enjoy through multiple runs! So the curted list of the plethora of popular and quality additions to the game, even if I end up enjoying a portion of it per playthrough, sounds just like my cup of tea. The book club idea for this game is so good! I wish more friends were into this kid of games because that sounds like a lot of fun. @Jarno Mikkola Well that sounds easy enough, as long as I know which mods conflict with what, and in what order they should be installed. Once I figure a list of mods I want to run, would it be possible to post them here (or anywhere else more fitting if that's the case) and get some feedback on the order of installation? I don't mind running through multiple .exe and command prompts installations, but if I can waste the smallest amount of time, that's a Victory in my book. @jastey Thanks for that link, I'll check it out once I have a good idea of which mods I'm going to consider, and I'm getting some good feedback on that do hopefully soon. This might not be the dreadful experience I was foreseeing, as long as I don't go overboard with the amount of stuff I throw at the game Thanks EVERYONE for the help, I love these games so far and being able to talk with an experienced community on the matter that's also willing to help thoroughly is refreshing and very welcome.

Thanks! Yes you are right, I should probably go light on the mods for my first playthrough. What about quests mods, and class tweaks? I know for sure I'm keeping the Bg1 NPC project, and I was probably going to make a blade bard as Charmane. As far as roles to fulfill in the party, I'll keep that in mind So a EET with a couple of supported mods are fine to install manually?

Hello everyone! (TL;DR at the end) A little background to better explain my situation: around march this year, I finally decided to give Baldur's Gate 1 a try with the enhanced edition (vanilla with the exception for BG1 NPC project, so much quality) , and I had a blast. So much so, that I got so invested in the plot, during the final stage of the game , that I rushed through the last chapter or two caught by the urgency of the situation. I loved the game, and was about to jump into the DLC and then the second one, when I decided I wanted to thoroughly enjoy the first game and all its content with a new character, exploring more quests and different outcomes. Unfortunately, IRL got in the way and only now I am able to focus a bit on a new set up to play the game start to finish, and I stumbled across the Enhanced Edition Trilogy mod, and that's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for at its core, if it actually functions as "advertised". So I started to dig around a bit, and got myself confused about tools that can be used to install it (and alongside it, other interesting mods) , especially upon reading some controversial stuff about the "Bladurs extended world" tool by Roxanne and some mods being modified versions of the originals and so on (sorry if I misunderstood something, this is what I got from various threads). So we come to the actual QUESTIONS of this thread: 1) I'm pretty sure I'm set on wanting to make a run start to finish with a EET setup, so what would be the recommended way of going about installing it? (I'm not experienced with modding or installing them, but I can follow instructions). 2) looking at the sheer number of mods out there (and of those a great deal of them seem to be very high quality): what other mods would you recommend adding to the base EET set up? For example, I've read a bit about SCS and it sounds very interesting, I just don't know if I should bother with it on my second Bg1 and first bg2 playthrough, and in that case in what entity. Quests, NPCs, tweaks etc, any help and recommendations would be greatly appreciated TLDR: I played through BG1 EE, loved it, and want to do a Trilogy run with the same character (replaying Bg1 all the way to the end of bg2) and I'm wondering on the tools to install the EET mod , and with that other recommended mods that could enhance my experience of the game. Any help and input is appreciated!
