Old EET versions are 2.5 compatible. The newest EET versions are 2.6 only.

Alleluia!

That was a minimalistic install where the scripts didn't install but the other mods did. MESpells is OlvynSpells.

EDIT 10 20 21: After thorough testing, this list includes bugs for the pre-EET mod. Some of them are due to BG1 components not installing onto EET. Some of them use the wrong strings for activating ("DRINK POTION" to activate a staff or a hat instead of "ACTIVATE"). Some of them involve reusable items that are consumed after their first use. Some of them involve NPCs (Imoen, Xan, Yoshimo, and others according to the documentation) who should be able to have familiars due to this mod not having their familiars. Intro Greetings, all! I ask for your help in updating this mod to EET compatibility due to my inexperience with Infinity Engine modding. (My last IE mod was a sound pack I made for BG around 1999 but never publicly released.) I have modded other games, but each game and each mod may have its own way of doing things. For the Infinity Engine, I like More Style for Mages, among other mods. GitHub user LarryErb and I have been working together to update MSFM to full EET compatibility, MSFM uses assets from BGEE and BG2EE and it kinda works already if some the mod components are installed pre-EET and others post-EET. As of this writing, the public version of MSFM isn't yet EET compatible, but the goal of this update is to make it fully EET compatible. As this is only a technical update, it doesn't require explicit prior author permission to post the new version once it's done, but having asked the author (Renegade0 AKA Pecca), he showed no signs of opposition to having someone else update this mod to EET. We intend to give the author access to the revised version for a new public release. What's Been Updated Since The Author's Last Official Public Release -The arcane familiar components for player characters (but seemingly not NPCs) work on EET. What May Need Doing for Full EET Compatibility -Arcane familiar components for certain NPCs. -Staves of Wizardry: They're always +3 weapons priced as +3 weapons, even in BGEE, when they should be +1 versions in BGEE - at least initially. Problem may be caused due to item naming. A Wizard's Staff (+1) is seemingly the BGEE version while a Staff of Wizardry (+3) is seemingly the +3 version. -Teleport Stone: This warps parties to maps with specific area codes that likely differ in EET. -Wizard's Hat: It's an item with a custom animation for male human Mages & Sors. -More. Finally Thankee for your aid!

@CoraMoose If you play EET, install the Drizzt Saga before EET but after DLCMerger.

@subtledoctor May we split this discussion caster/non-caster handling into another thread outside how it directly relates to your install and playthrough? My opinion: Casters have variety, but require more setup (spells and foreknowledge) to work properly. Non-casters have the simplicity of clicking the thing until it dies as a more viable option. (I didn't realize how fast I could win BG until I played a throwing axe Kensai and could just keep going!) The classes aren't balanced 1:1, but they have different sorts of spotlight time.

@KrispyVS I recall Subtledoctor said Revised Specialists needed fixing. Another user (Necromanx?) mentioned the Necromancy spells problem.

I thought the mod Tome & Blood included something like this WTP Familiars.

@KrispyVS Are you using Revised Specialists?

I was disappointed that I beat the assassins but had no dialog option - even with 18 CHA and a moderate-high reputation - to persuade the guy who scolded me afterward that it wasn't my fault, and that I should gain instead of lose reputation.

@Austin Alleluia!

The short answer is to stop side questing once you're comfortable. Whatever price you set can be worked around.

Roxanne inspired me by helping me learn about EET and jastey corrected me that "EET" is a mod and a framework, not necessarily Roxanne's install tool. For me, a major plus for EET is the lack of pressure once installed. I don't need to be concerned about missing something because I can return to it. I prefer the continuity as well.

Epic Thieving's Use Poison (new thieving skills) also requires EEex.

Thankee for your thorough report!

@Gamemacik Thankee!

Thankee!

Thankee! What's the best install order for your mods with OlvynSpells and other mods that add spells? I heard that 5e casting (or some of your mods) and OlvynSpells were incompatible.

Does IWDification still work with 2.5? What about with The Darkest Day (TDD/TDDz)? See here for more.

Thankee!

Remember, EET exists and being able to shadow walk to BG1/SoD areas and mod area would also help. What tools exist to automate a grayscale image of an existing image? I know MSPaint (Microsoft Paint) can do grayscale fairly easily, and I assume more sophisticated tools can too.

@subtledoctor To clarify, what are the most recent versions of the Unearthed Arcana mods (T&B, 5e, F&P, M&G, WtP) that work on 2.5? I heard that the newest versions no longer work with 2.5. Thankee!

Thankee.

Where in the install order should 5e casting be?
