Hi there,
I'm new at these boards. I very much liked the old BP mod making my BG2 experience a cool and lengthy one. I read some snippets here about a Weidu version. Is it still being worked on? If yes, any idea when we can play it?

Cool enough for me! Beta testing means it's at the end of it's developing stages right? ;) And I for one would rather play a thouroughly tested version than a rushed version.
Keep up the good work all of ye!

What exactly does BP-weidu1.7 provide? I know before the main issue of BP was to allow mods to be compatable with each other but now the weidu mods seem to be doing that on their own. Does it still resolve some compatability issues or is it mostly extra componenets and tweaks now?

BP used to be the glue that held everything together. Now, it is not required at all for compatibility and is simply extra components and tweaks as you say.

So BP will be a tactics/refinements/a little bit of everything?


But as for compatibility...

One can, in the short term,

ADD

TDD Weidu
SOS Weidu
BP Weidu
CTB Weidu
?With no hassle at all?????




But What about
TS - Not weidu?
And NEJ2 - again not weidu? Will they ever be Weidu?



MY... what a vision... all these mods.... I suppose BP will regulate XP... etc?

IS there a secret council that is drawing all of it together?
Will we know what mods to include and not to? (Especially the smaller mods)


May I suggest some form of voting system for mods... so players can rate them for game balance... enjoyabily.... tone (Whether they keep with the theme of fantasy rpg or are rather silly)....?

Its a veritable maze out there... and last time I played, well.... some mods were just rediculous and stripped the game down to -10 ac with one item.



Its 2 am... and fragmented thoughts... and my wife's beeping watch are keeping me up.....
You really don't have to read this. :(
But if you already have, :wacko:

KD has already done a compat version of TS for BP, just look at his sig

They are both weidu and can be found at: http://forums.blackwyrmlair.net/

Only TS-BPv604 is compatible with the TDD, SOS, and CtB. NeJ and TSv605 are not compatible with TDD, SOS and CtB.

And NEJ2


Do not install NEJ2 with SoS/TDD/CtB/TS-BP. It's not compatible with those mods at the moment.
If you want to play NEJ2 install it in a way described HERE. Or try to combine them on your own risk, but you won't receive any support neither here nor there (on Vlad's forums).

NEJ2 is compatible with TS v6.05 that has similar to TS-BP v6.04 contents but different compatibility workaround. I think that is the only large mod that has no issues with NEJ2.
