Hi Guys,

I've gone back to playing my small BP+BGT mod game of BG x, and I've poked around a bit, and not sure about:
1) where to install new mods in my list;
2) which mod I don't need; and
3) whether I have an up to date list.

In relation to 1) I have downloaded BP Series v3. Though I'm not sure whether I'll use it, or where to put it in the list as you can see I put it almost dead last. I get the feeling I've put Refinements ages ago, also in the wrong place, and that should be further down the list and basically the last thing I install ? I've also downloaded BG2 Tweaks, which I assume goes almost last.

In relation to 2) I downloaded Baldurdash Fix v163, should I be using this or the G3 BG2 Fixpack ?

Baldurdash Fixpack v1.63
NEJ2 Biffer v3
NEJ2 v4.2b
NEJ2 Gui
NEJ2 v6.02
Shadows Over Soubar v1.11
The Darkest Day v1.11
Tortured Souls (BP Compatible Version) v6.09
Baldurs Gate Trilogy - Core v1.04
BGT-NEJ2 Compatibility Patch v1

Custom Portraits for Imoen and Jaheira
Boo - Minsc's Familiar Fixes
Custom Firewalker Kit and continuity for Shar-Teel
Merchant League Store

DSotSC for BGT-Weidu v1.85
NTotSC for BGT-Weidu v1.45
Chloe NPC mod v1.2
Refinements v3.02
Yikari v1.1
Tashia Remix v1.0

Tashia Add-on Pack -> Baldurized Dialogues
Alternate portrait for Tashia -> Alternate Portrait 1

1PP v2
Unfinished Business v1.5
Indira v10.1
Prologue v3
Sirines Call v7
BP V177
BP V177 TOB Trigger Fix
BGTTWEAK v6
DOTWEAK v1.8
XPMOD/DEFJAM v3
BPSeries v3
Plasmocat's Portaits (3 lots of them)
Worldmap v6.4
and finally ran the GUI

I want to add BG2 Tweaks v4 in here as well. I'm assuming it will go after DOTWEAK ? and can I actually put the XPMOD after the worldmap and maybe after running the gui ?

Without BG2 Tweaks and using the Baldurdash it seems to run okay, but now I'm wondering about BG2 Tweaks.

Do I need the BP v177 TOB Trigger Fix as well ?

I did have Redemption installed, but I decided to kill it on my last install a few days ago, even after I removed the two lines from the required file, it still wouldn't install. So I gave up :) Besides I'm not sure Jonny deserves redemption after all, I thought for a few months he might have :) But alas I was wrong :)

Thanks in advance yet again after all this time. I know I'm still a pain guys :D

Erebusant.

I assume you meant the Gibberlings 3 fixpack ?

Stupid question, what is SCSBGT ?

I'll probably leave the BP Series out, it would be nice, but I've never ever used ai scripts for any of my party :o which is probably silly.

To Erebusant and anyone else,

With people still bringing out mods and refining them regularly enough, are all the extra kits, like in the divine remix etc, a lot better than the Darkest Day kits ? I do like some of TDD kits, but I do find some of them broken, and if you install them, that doesn't allow extra kits to be added.

So what is peoples opinions these days on kits ? If mods like divine remix, song and silence, etc got installed, they'd be installed between:
BP V177 TOB Trigger Fix
and
BGTTWEAK v6

I'd assume they would or they'd be installed after DOTWEAK, to allow BGTTWEAK, and BG2Tweak, etc to kick in ?

Thanks again.
