Download The Big Picture v181 4611

NOW MADE COMPATIBLE WITH THE BWS INSTALLER!!!

MAC_OSX Support Files Included (as of v4610, experimental)

BP stands for The Big Picture. This is a compatibility mod with AI improvements that allows you to integrate most of the currently existing large mods as well as several smaller mods into one giant game. BP is an active ongoing project with the overall goal of making as many mods compatible with each other as possible.

This updates BP to BPv181, after a long wait.

Biggest Changes (brief):

1) BP now has over 70 components! The big block of all-for-one has been sub-divided into handier parts. This should allow a lot of "mix-n-match" between mods, for the mega installers.

2) BP Core is still an essential component of most of BP, but it is now merely the Detectable Spells pack and a few BP additions.

3) BP Series party AI has been removed, and will remain a seperate download package (for BGEE and BG2) until further notice

4) Code has been modernized, file overwriting all-but-eliminated.

Installation/Compatibility: Just extract the contents of the archive into your BG2ToB folder of choice, and double-click on Setup-BP.exe I recommend installing after SCS 1 & 2, if you actually want to play BP. You can probably choose most of your favorites from each mod, and make your install even more enjoyable. Same goes for other AI mods with lots of little slices. And there's still a "leftovers" section (generic AI/encounters) that contains all the old BP you've played for years, for those that prefer it to other choices.

Special Thanks to the BP Crew, for all their help in coding and testing!!! And to you, for downloading this mod...
