The following way is absolutely clean (ignore unnecessary mods if you don't want to install them):

1) ToB+offic. patch
2) G3 FixPack Beta 2 (or BDash-WeiDU).
3) SoS v1.11/TDD v1.11/CtB v1.8/RoT v2.0/TS-BP v6.09/BGT-WeiDU v1.01 - in any order
5) Install ANY other mods you want here (be sure they're truly WeiDU and don't ruin anything).
6) BP v1.77 Public BETA
7) Worldmap, latest version (v6.3)
8) If you want you may activate preferable GUI at this point - just run GUI-Switcher.


Please note that NeJ2 is still partially incompatible with this bunch....Install it without CtB if you wish and with all requirements of its own.

Some tips:
- original TS v6.07(08,09) is NOT compatible with the listed mods. Never install them togeteher. Install TS-BP v6.09 instead that is an adaptation of the original for mega-install;
- all necessary fixes for the listed mods are mentioned in my signature. Don't invent anything...

gah! did you actually read what you quoted, Ali? if what you say is correct, and you've installed the worldmap before 1pp/ajocsminimod/ascension/bagbonus.... etc, then it's no wonder everything is screwed up: you've broken yr install.

the worldmap has to be installed last. last, last, last. all these mods: 1pp/ajocsminimod/ascension/bagbonus.. etc, go in

4) Install ANY other mods you want here


then BPv177, then the worldmap, then start a new game

the only way yr going to fix yr game from this point it to uninstall the worldmap and every mod you installed after it, then re-install those mods, but make sure the worldmap is last, then start a new game. but yr probably better off doing a complete reinstall, as you've stuffed yr current install.

seanas is right.

And I'll tell you more, Ali.
(be sure they're truly WeiDU and don't ruin anything).
That is a major part of paragraph 4), not "Install ANY other mods you want here '

You might want to check out this thread: http://www.shsforums...showtopic=22224

lots of useful stuff in there, some of the mods you are installing have compatibility issues and they are discussed in that other thread.

Im having trouble with the installation. Everything works fine until Irenicus is supposed to enter the film sequence just in the beginning. Everything seems to work, sounds and the people in the background are moving, but Irenicus doesnīt show up. I have followed and installed everything in the list, except bgt-weidu.

Hereīs a post from Beerish, long time ago tho, but the same problem im having:

quote:
Whenever I start a new game the game stays in cutscene mode in Chateau Irenicus (I wait ages, but nothing happens (I've heard you're supposed to be sent to Candlekeep-how?)). My game is fully patched, and has mods installed in the following order:

~~~All mods are WEiDU~~~

ToB patch
Baldurdash fixpack v.1.5
Shadows over Soubar v.105 + latest patch
The Darkest Day v.105 + latest patch + Check the Bodies compatibility fix
Check the Bodies v.160 + latest patch
Zyraen's Miscellany v.1
Unfinished Business v.14
Dungeon-Be-Gone v.1.4
Quest Pack v.2.21
Ascension v.1.41
Item Upgrades (latest version)
Boards-O-magick Item Pack (latest version)
Turnabout v.1
Banter Pack v.6
Expanded Thief Stronghold v.2.8 + The Darkest day fix
Kelsey SoA v.2.1
Kelsey ToB v.2.2

What do I need to do/is the problem?

So, when i install these big mods. Should i remove the setup.exe file from the directory or leave it be when i install a new mod.

Anyways, i tried to reinstall but the same thing happens (or not happens) Irenicus doesnīt show up, so im stuck in the opening scene with only the inprisoned charcaters moving around in their cells.

6) BP v1.77 Public BETA
7) Worldmap, latest version (v6.3)
8) If you want you may activate preferable GUI at this point - just run GUI-Switcher.


Please note that NeJ2 is still partially incompatible with this bunch....Install it without CtB if you wish and with all requirements of its own.

Some tips:
- original TS v6.07(08,09) is NOT compatible with the listed mods. Never install them togeteher. Install TS-BP v6.09 instead that is an adaptation of the original for mega-install;
- all necessary fixes for the listed mods are mentioned in my signature. Don't invent anything...


Ok I've installed everything on this list except the TDD v1.11. It just won't work for me. Problems so far:

1. When starting new BG2 game, after char creation, the cut scene just hangs (it loads...then briefly shows irenicus's dungeon then loads again to nothing but black)
2. The map (when i load a previous game just to see if it works) is off. Athkatla shows in the middle of the sea of swords.
3. When I loaded it minus bgt it worked, but the "westchar" mission once i got it and looked at map, no Westchar on the map.

I'm getting a bit frustrated. Is there anything I can do to get this working? Do I HAVE to load TDD? Do i HAVE to use the worldmap v6.4?

Ok I lied.

I can't select my character and nothing happens. And the map is still off (showing athkatla in the middle of the sea of swords)

Ok I just tried again while sitting at the computer. After the second "loading" it supposed to go to cutscene with Jarlaxle and Artemis Entreri but it just stays black for a while. Then it reloads and I'm in the cell and the text box shows that they did their cutscene, but I cannot select my guy and Irenicus never comes in to torture me and it just hangs there.

Sorry for your frustration. The hanging scene problems were just recently resolved. Read this - http://www.shsforums...showtopic=24104 - thread for solutions.

You've have to make the changes, and re-install your list from the beginning. But it'll be worth it.
