As I said in previous threads, I want to do a megaBPinstall without BG1&BGT.
I downloaded all the mods I want to install and I think I pretty much figured out the installationorder. I was hoping if someone could check it before I proceed to install.
This is the list in the presumed order:

*Full BGII SOA+TOB+26498_patch

*G3 BG2 Fixpack Beta2 (instead of Baldurdash)
*Shadows over Soubar V1.11
*The Darkest Day V1.11
*Check The Bodies V1.8 (what does the seperate Chores file do?)
*Tortured Souls BP V6.07

*Deeper Shadows of Amn V2.2
*Exnem Vault V5
*Freedom's Reign/Reign of Virtue Weidu V3
*Planar Sphere Return V2 Weidu
*Planar Sphere Mod V2.2
*Return to Trademeet Itempack
*Realm of the Bhaalspawn Armor Set v1.0
*The Unusual Oddities Shop V2.1
*The Black Rose Part 1: Market Prices (does it really need the Warriors Kitpack?)
*Rolles V2
*Ribalds Genie V2.4
*RPG Dungeon Item Pack V2
*Unfinished Business V1.5
*Weimer ItemUpgrade V3.3
*BagBonus V1.0
*Boards of Magick Item Pack

*BP V1.77

*The Longer Road V1.5.1
*G3 BG2 Tweaks V1
*D0Tweaks V1.8
*PnPCelestials V3

*BP-BGT Worldmap V6.3

Also, are there any components with the various fixpacks and tweakpacks or other mods included in this list which I should NOT install? Help would be appreciated! :)

I think you should not install Exnem, it seems to be incompatible with check the bodies.

The separate "Chores" for Check the Bodies installs the "Candlekeep Chores" component from the original Check the Bodies mod. You will be asked to install it after Check the Bodies. Don't install it. Or install it if you really want to, and don't say I did not warn you. :P

I cannot find information on Exnem not being compatible anywhere in the Check The Bodies forum.
Also, if I don't install the chores (I have done them before in a previous install and found them tedious ;)) do I still get the inate abilities?

You don't believe me :crying: Look here

I don't think so. If you really want them, you may try to install the Chores and the Chores-Fast-Forward mod (to skip the boring parts and get the abilities) but compatibility between this version of CTB and this mod has not been tested. Perhaps you should try and tell us if it works :whistling:

Thanks for the link. I believe you now B)

Edit: The readme of Exnem V5 says this:
"Version 5 now works on CtB games."

I will try Fast Forward and tell you all if it works or not ;)
Is my installation order correct for the rest? And what tweak/fixpack components should I NOT install?

nothing on that list jumps out at me and screams 'incompatible', but then it is friday afternoon :P.

regarding the tweakpacks: BG2 Tweaks is now fully compatible with BP (Camdawg is a legend); the only part of D0Tweaks that isn't compatible is Kensai Ryu's Restored Drow Innate Abilities; eveything else is compatible.

I think *Freedom's Reign/Reign of Virtue Weidu V3 is causeing a bug in level 1 of Jonny's Dungeon. Needs a Continue()

yeah, it does - but not reliably, strangely. it can cause problems, but not always. one day we should get around to adding those Continue()s tho :)

I tried CTB Fast Forward mod with the newest versions of BP and CTB and I am happy to inform you all that it works like a charm.

Hi people
Well, i want to do the same... same megainstalation without BG1 and BGT... so i installed this (see the attachment)
I had some problems with some graphics about spells, so uninstalled the SPELLPACK of Galactygon... but i keep with anothers mods...
My actual problem is that my game is slowing... :wacko: yep, before my PC (personal character) & co. [im playing a multiplayer game] go without interruptions but now, each 3 steps i see a very short pause, and repeat... walk, pause, walk, pause... that is too freaking for me... and maybe my question is stupid, but i dont know what happens... :crying:
In this moment, i dont play very well, cuz i can't play plenty... please give me a hand... in other way, what do u think about my installation?
Txs in advance, :Bow: :Bow:

AFAIU you've got "stutter" problem. There are plenty topics about it. Use search function.
