So, I post here seeking for advice.
After translating some files of BG1NPC Project mod, I got irresistible urge to play this mod. But since it needs BGT or BGTutu to run, I have some questions about those conversions. Which one is better (easier to install,less bugged etc.) and also important, which one runs better on non-english version of game? And are there any other things I should know about them?
I just would like to hear opinions of people more experience in this topic. ^_^

If it's the important thing, EasyTutu does not support any languages other than English. BGT supports 9 different languages other than English.
Otherwise, it depends on how you want to play BG1. If you just want to play BG1, then use EasyTutu. If you want to continue to play BG2 after BG1, then use BGT. Both are pretty stable.

Oh, and when you ask 'Which is better?' in the topic title, the answer is 'None.'

Thanks. :)

But with BGT, is it possible to start the runtrough in BG2 without finishing BG1 first?

Yes, if you have the GUI set as BGT, it's clear... but if it's not, well it's through the "tutorial" button.

Now, my opinion... it's cross between all of them. :devil:

Now as you know, you can't use EasyTutu with none-English languages.
The BG1Tutu is a good game on the base of BG1, but it comes with it's own "features" that can really kill the joy. Like the uninstallation and that's a complete overhaul... and this causes bugs with the exporting the character, especially with it's unique kit, and NPCs.
BGT, it's still a bit on development... but it's the largest thing around. :cheers:
