Priest of Tempus didn't come from Divine Remix, only Priest of Ilmater.

Your right it's NeJv602, ACCALI8.CRE is the preistes of Tempus there appears to be only the one, so I should be able to manually edit it.

Hello everyone,

i'm trying to install megainstalation. That's how my install may look like (in instalation order)):
1. All needed BG's + needed patches
2. BD weidu 1.5 (i've selected to install and text updates, is that bad?)
3. CTB 1.8
3.1. Candlekeep Chores 2.0 (from CTB install)
4. SoS 1.11
5. TDD 1.11
6. TS 6.04.02
7. BGT 1.01 (btw, that's my second reinstall of exactly this stuf and while installing BGT i'm getting same error message (well, minimum two times getting similar error messages: http://www.talpykla....files/87/bg.jpg )
8. BGT tweaks 3
9. DSotSC4BGTWeidu185WM6
9.1. NTotSC4BGTWeidu145WM6 (is there any order of these two mod's install? and again, what possibility there is that they will ruin gameplay?)
10. BG1 NPC4 BGT Weidu 111 (won't that ruin gameplay? :( and if posibility is low, may i install BG1NPCMusic-v4.exe addon?)
11. How about Unfinished Bussines? For both BG1 and BG2? Won't that clash with megainstall?
12. MulgoreXaviaNPC_v2_BGT
13. IndiraNPC_v71_BGT
14. Prologue_v2
15. BPv177
16. Virtue_v18
17. BP-BGT-Worldmap v6.3

Just to mention, days ago i've tried to install a pack similar to this (all the same, except there were no DSotSC4BGTWeidu185WM6 and NTotSC4BGTWeidu145WM6 and Unfinished Bussines). The problem was, that just outside Candlekeep Imoen started 'leaving' me :( She just mentioned something about leaving, but STAYED at group (actualy, at me). I could control her, but when i tried to kick her out, she didn't come to me, and not started dialogs. That means, that even if she were at my side she's like kicked out. After some time she started dialog that 'it's good to come back'. And again, after few seconds there apeared dialog that Imoen 'left' me... Sorry, i've no weidu.log of that instalation, were furiuos and deleted everything :huh:

Would be great if you, guys, would spare some time and view my instalation, maybe i'm doing something terribly wrong from the start :)

p.s. sorry for poor english :rolleyes:

Your best bet is to follow the instructions on the first page of this thread. Your errors installing BGT are known and have no impact on your install. There is also a mod compatibility thread you can look at that tells what mods are compatible and which are not.

I started a new topic for the most recent updated Installation Instructions. Hopefully this will keep the confusion down about what Versions it's on.

This one is for the latest versions of the BP family of mods, and also includes RoTv2.0 (To clarify: NEJ2v42b+NEJ2v602 Patch+SoSv1.11+TDDv1.11+CtBv1.8+TS-BPv6.04.02+RoTv2.0+BGTv1.01+DSotSCv1.85WM6+NTotSCv1.45WM6+SoBHv2.05) all of which should be installed prior to installing any of the other smaller mods. When the new version of NEJ2 comes out, I'll update the procedure and install order again.


:woot: Is there still the incompatibility bteween CtB and NeJ?
I read the instructions doc attached: Is it necessary to NeJ work, that BGT is installed? (I don't have BG1)
Thank you!

NEJ2 will work without BGT. My understanding is there are only a few graphics incompatibilities between CtB and NEJ2.

I just checked the 05 July 06 file and saw the new component about editing the Baldur.ini file. I didn't do that with my previous installs and I think they worked. How would I know, and it would have to be from memory, if not doing that caused issues for me. In the install I'm in the middle of I didn't do that as I was still working off of the June document, so is this a fix that I could do post BGT100 to the baldur.ini file and have things work or will I need to go back to a pre-BGT backup? And luckily I have one.

Thanx

I believe that part about editing the baldur.ini file in your Baldur's Gate directory before installing BGT-WeiDU v1.01 was put there due to the problems many people were having with Baldur's Gate related Cd's in the CD-Rom drives, or in their virtual drives, which in some cases caused errors during the BGT install which subsequently woofed the install. All removing the references to the CD's in the baldur.ini does is remove the chance for this error to occur. Fortunately I never had this problem, with either BGTv100 or 1.01, and if you were lucky enough to not have any errors occur during your BGT-WieDU installation, then don't worry about it. You're good. At least to that point. :D

G3 has just released its BG2 fixpack. Anyone want to comment on how this may or may not affect a monster install.

I believe the effect on a monster install should be minimal. The G3 Fixpack includes everything Baldurdash WeiDu includes plus a whole lot more.

As far as where it would be installed at, I think it needs to take the place of Baldurdash - WeiDU. HOWEVER, it is still a Beta release, and one really needs to take that into consideration with their installation until it has had substantially more testing and any further bugs with it have been resolved. One may want to hold off on it's installation until then. That being so stated, I think I'll give it a try,,, :whistling:

Installation note*** If you want to use CtB in your mega installation, don't install the "Super Happy Modder Pack" component of the BG2 Fixpack. It causes a fatal install error in CtB v1.8

I was near the end of an install when I saw that it had been released. On the G3 boards Cam said he thought I could still install it but it wouldn't. I don't know what the problem was but I'm sending him the debug file. So yes I think it is supposed to supplant Baldurdash. Just be sure to note which parts of some of the other tweaks mods out there it also includes so you don't overwrite them later with what is probably older less reliable code.

***EDIT 07/03/06*** I've uploaded a revised version of the Mega Install Instruction with various changes gleaned from all the feedback reports from previous versions. Hopefully it will smooth out any rough spots. SoBHv205FullWM6 is released at SHS mirror, so it is updated with that link plus the new instruction for BGTv101. Includes BGT-NEJ2 oAR0602.baf fix.


Where the SoBHv205FullWM6 can be downloaded from?
