I made an installation of the following mods yesaterday in the following order:
ToB patch
G3 Fix
SoS
CtB
CtBFF
Ascension
Sola
KelseyToB
Keto
Chloe
Kivan
Xan
LR
Banter
Flirtpack
UB
JerryZinger
FR-RoV
Ajoc-Munchmod-Mordan's xmas
Ease(no trouble from there,only the cloak fix)
Worldmap

and a problem occured whenever I quit to desktop and loaded a savegame.As the load screen goes off it seems as if there is a cutscene going on but it's just that the interface drops.Hoewver,the PC becomes unselectable(purple circle underfootetc).

Using ModSwitcher I checked each mod alone until I encountered the problem again.It happened when I reached up to "The Longer Road"(going according to the list above again),so it appears that there is a compatibility issue between LR and one of,or a combination of,the following mods:

g3 fix,SoS,CtB,Ascension,KelseyToB,Keto,Sola,Kivan,Chloe,Xan.

I was really looking forward to using this wonderful mod,what do you think is the issue here?Which mod would be the incompatible one with LR?
Thanks in advance for any help! ^_^

I am not sure about some of the abbreviations - what is SoS or CtB?

I can only say that LR was specially designed to run on top of Ascension ( but can run without it).

As far as I remember Keto and XAn were released after I left active modding.

Look for the mods that modify ( extensively) The ToB start and final battle - not counting Ascension. All the new npc mods should not give you any problem - as usually they tend to avoid heavily modifying scripts ( particularly area ones). LR is quest-oriented and has tons of scripting but when I was still actively fixing the bugs we squashed most of them. Once again - look for the latest mods released after/in 2005.

There can also be a problem if too many custom music pieces areinstalled. LR has quite a few extra songs.

Sorry about your trouble btw.

Freedom cannot be equated with goodness, virtue, or perfection. Freedom has its own unique self-contained nature; freedom is freedom ? not universal goodness. Any confusion or deliberate equalization of freedom with goodness and excellence is in itself negation of freedom, and acceptance of the path of restraint and enforcement.

SoS is Shadows over Soubar and CtB is Check the Bodies(CBisson's I think).

Anyway,I re-installed the whole thing but right with a difference: installed LR RIGHT after Ascension this time and the problem stopped! :cheers: It seemed logical to install LR quite high in the order like Ascension and before any NPC mod with ToB content as LR and ASC modify the ToB portion of the game.
The real problem could still be eluding us but a conclusion from all this could be to install LR right along with
ASC...and not install too many mods maybe :whistling:

Thanks for a wonderful mod Dorotea!
