1) ToB+offic. patch
2) BDash-WeiDU (or G3 fixpack).
3) SoS v1.05/TDD v1.05/BGT-WeiDU ZETA - in any order
4) CtB-TDD fix for TDD v1.05
5) CtB v1.6
6) TS-BP v6.04 (it doesn't like CtB to be installed after
)7) Deactivate (uninstall) GUI-switcher - choose "Original SoA/ToB" item (see TP2 patch below).
Install ANY other mods you want here (hope they're truly WeiDU and don't ruin anything). Any BGT-WeiDU BETAs should be installed here too.9) Worldmap v5
10) Fixes for SoS, TDD, TS-BP
11) If you want you may activate preferable GUI at this point:
- run GUI-switcher once to activate automatically GUI of the last mod from SoS/TDD/SoS/BGT/CtB set;
- run it again to choose manually necessary GUI.
*************************************************************
GUI switcher patch (for the current SoS v1.05/TDD v1.05/TS-BP v6.04 )
*************************************************************
First, GUI Switcher is a cosmetic mini-mod that will be autocreated during the installation of the first mod from the set of SoS v1.05/TDD v1.05/TS-BP v6.04/CtB v1.6/BGT-WeiDU Zeta. Each of them have their own game GUI (graphical user interface) and this mod will allow to switch between them easily at any time you want without reinstalling the whole mods pack.
To be able to complete step 7) (uninstall GUI Switcher) at one attempt (not 2 or 3 consequtive passes) it's necessary to modify existing TP2's of the mentioned 3 mods BEFORE you will start the installation of your multi-mod configuration.
Each of them is starting with a piece of code that creates GUI Switcher mod if it's not present at the time of installation.
A current version of that code looks like this:
ACTION_IF NOT FILE_EXISTS ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ THEN BEGIN COPY ~SoS/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ // - for SoS // COPY ~TDD/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ - for TDD // COPY ~TS/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ - for TS-BP COPY ~Setup-SoS.exe~ ~Setup-GUI.exe~ MKDIR ~GUIlist~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/Backup~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/1~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/2~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/3~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/4~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/5~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/6~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/7~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/8~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/9~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/10~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/11~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/12~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/13~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/14~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/15~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/16~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/17~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/18~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/19~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/20~ ENDIt's necessary to add few more lines there and it should look like this:
ACTION_IF NOT FILE_EXISTS ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ THEN BEGIN COPY ~SoS/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ // - for SoS // COPY ~TDD/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ - for TDD // COPY ~TS/GUIlist/Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ - for TS-BP COPY ~Setup-SoS.exe~ ~Setup-GUI.exe~ MKDIR ~GUIlist~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/Backup~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/1~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/2~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/3~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/4~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/5~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/6~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/7~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/8~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/9~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/10~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/11~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/12~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/13~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/14~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/15~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/16~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/17~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/18~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/19~ MKDIR ~GUIlist/20~ //EXTRA STUFF START******************************************** COPY_EXISTING ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ ~Setup-GUI.tp2~ READ_2DA_ENTRY 0 1 2 "slot_name" SET_2DA_ENTRY 0 1 2 "%slot_name%"+1 REPLACE_TEXTUALLY "//slot%slot_name%_%slot_name%_%slot_name%" ~~~~~ BEGIN ~"Original SoA/ToB"~ INSTALL_BY_DEFAULT SUBCOMPONENT ~Game Graphical User Interface (GUI)~ AT_EXIT ~Setup-GUI.exe --uninstall~ ~~~~~ //EXTRA STUFF END********************************************** END
