Some parts of Easy of use arent working well with other mods. Tactics is a mod that wrecks most installs if you want tactical challange install BP. Spell50 is included in BP.
About the rest? They should go before BP but if Item Upragede will go after BP it shouldn`t matter.
About RoT it should be compatibile with all other mods and should be installed with other big mods(CtB,NeJ,TDD,SoS,TS) somewhere between or after them :)

OKaaay. bear in mind that i may be incorrect, but i'll help to the best of my ability.

Feedom Reign - Reign of Virtue v3 - should be good, ive installed this.
Unfinished Business v15 - this better work.. good mod. going to install.
Ease of Use v32 - IIRC, you can't install all the components safely.
Item Upgrade v32 - dont forsee problems. i've installed this.
Spell 50 v6 - DO NOT INSTALL. never has been compatible..
Tactics Mod v23 - Incompatible, AFAIK, which is a shame, because i liked it.

now. the loss of spell 50 isnt a loss at all, because i have been reliably informed that BP extends the rules and spells to level 50 anyway. so, PARTY ON.

edit: WOOOOOOO, POST 100!

I have question regarding the "small mods". I plan on installing:
Feedom Reign - Reign of Virtue v3
Unfinished Business v15
Ease of Use v32
Item Upgrade v32
Spell 50 v6
Tactics Mod v23

When do I install each mod (before or after BP), cause some sites say the a mod has to go after and another says it has to go before, so can someone tell me what I sould do.


Unfinished Business is all good, except Kidnapping of Boo conflicts with NEJ2 Boo, and Sunai - Valygar Relationship causes problems with NEJ2 as well.
Ease of use causes problems. About all I use from it anymore is Turn of Cloak of Mirroring animation, No Drow Avatars (keeping avatars on caused a serious stutterbug problem in the Underdark at one time), and Rest Anywhere. Pretty much anything else you want to use can be found in G3Tweaks or TuTu Tweaks. There's many duplications between them all.

Item Upgrade should be good.

Spell 50 not necessary as BP takes care of it.

Only thing from Tactics that can be used is Improved Irenicus.

Hey, erebusant, I think it has been confirmed that Rogue Rebalancing can now be installed with this, but it must be BEFORE NeJ. add it in, for reference, if not anything else?

The simplest way of thinking about where to install mods with BP {seanas, please correct me}, is if there's gonna be combat introduced by the mod:

If yes, install before BP
If no, install ANYWHERE because BP won't (shouldn't) interfere with the mod. I like installing After. YMMV.

- There are some potential fights in Unfinished Business, so that's definitely a "Before BP" mod.
- Funny, I thought I read that 'The Suna Seni/Valygar Relationship Restoration' was compatiable. I hope we can get confirmation from someone.
- although you could install 'Improved Irenicus' from Tactics, BP already has its own improved version. I'm going with BP's but if anyone tries Tactics' version, let us know how it worked out.

You got answers about the other mods, and the first post in this thread should answer any other questions.

erebusant, I made a customized version of your biffing batch file:

- backup of chitin.key and dialog.tlk
- does not biff the TIZ files (for simplicity sake), but the code is there just REM'd out
- some cosmetic filename changes
- added the check for weidu.exe - in case, um, someone doesn't have the file in their folder and, um, the batch file deletes nearly everything from override, forcing the person to, um, reinstall everything afresh

these four:
Feedom Reign - Reign of Virtue v3
Unfinished Business v15
Ease of Use v32
Item Upgrade v32
are installed at step 6: any other mods. note of course to not install those bits of Ease of Use which are outdated/ incompatible:

* Multi-Class Grand Mastery
* True Grand Mastery (extra half-attack, etc.) (Baldurdash)
* Un-Nerfed THAC0 Table, Saving Throws, Grand-Mastery, and Arcane, Divine Spell Progression
* Bonus Merchants


don't install these two:
Spell 50 v6
Tactics Mod v23
as they're already included in BP-weidu.

8kb/s....335mb file....../cry
Thanks for the link tho, guess I'll get that download started.

It's been 4 hours and i got to 50mb before the server dropped my connection, 5kb/s isn't going to cut it, is there anywhere else I can get the file? Could someone put it on rapidshare please?

Can someone please link me to the NEJ2 biffer_v3?
What's happening with the forums anyway? Search function won't work for me and half the time the pages just show up empty.
