Thank you for the links. I would not have noticed the new versions.

Thank you for the links. I would not have noticed the new versions.

Leonardo, as I'm downloading these files I realize how time consuming it is to find all of these. Would it be possible for future pdfs to have a direct download link to thr mods? I'd be happy to assist with this.

And you wish to have another list that out of date instead of the existing and quite good one that's relatively well still maintained ... WHY exactly ?

If you don't want to download manually, you could use the Bws.
Or you can use it to get its download-links and load yourself.

If you're reading the pdf you might as well be able to download it directly rather than searching multiple locations.

You can download through the BWS file? I will have to try this.

BWP claims that SCS/Stratagems component 8050 Improved Random Encounters is incompatible with Ding0 Quest Pack component 'Miscellaneous Enhancements'.

 

However I've never seen anyone report such is the case in either Quest Pack's or Stratagem's forums, with at least one credible person posting that there's no compatibility issues between the two over in SCS's forums. Also, the authors of both mods seem to have made sure the two mods don't conflict, according to the readme's.

 

 

Will this be addressed in the next version? It's been this way through several versions of BWP I believe.

This one has been detected by Leonardo. He said to install Tsujatha before Edwin but in individual.bat, Edwin is still the first. I haven't tried to switch their order because it's only a warning (and I wasn't sure about this change, he may have changed his mind for some reason).

PDF says Tsujatha after Edwin and I don't get this warning.

 

1pp spell tweaks is initially installed after SR and then install fails.

I can't reproduce this. 1pp spell tweaks installes without any error or warning

 

Last, I am wondering about stratagems install order.

from the stratagems readme:
Ideally, SCS prefers to be installed last, but several other recent mods (aTweaks, BiggTweaks, BG2 Tweakpack) also say "install last" in their readmes. You can generally install any of these listed mods after SCS fairly safely. (In particular, aTweaks is designed with SCS specifically in mind, and should definitely be installed after SCS). Other mods, and in particular any mods that add new items, really need to be installed before SCS.

You should notice that the .2da changes the BG2Tweakpack makes to the player rules* also effect the SCS creatures as they are implemented to them as well, so those components of the BG2Tweakpack should be installed before the SCS... quote provided by kreso at G3.

"Rule changes" that go before SCS:

• Alter Weapon Proficiency System
• Make +x/+y Weapons Consistent
• Un-Nerfed THAC0 Table
• Alter Mage Spell Progression Table
• Alter Bard Spell Progression Table
• Alter Cleric Spell Progression Table
• Alter Druid Spell and Level Progression Tables
• Add Save Penalties for Spells Cast by High-Level Casters
• Remove Delay for Magical Traps (Ardanis/GeN1e)

Every other BG2 Tweaks component can be installed in any order; it doesn't matter.

Might be both, not that I am not both of them too, but LW's signature leads to here, and the SHS has the documentation and the other install files too here.

@ALIEN

BWP v15.1 is ready to release and I won’t do any changes to this release.
What is the problem? I am using Windows 7 and start the Install.bat via right-click. The whole installation runs without any problems.

[jastey]

Gavin v9 is out officially. Please remove the Gavin German translation from the Textpack.

[Leonardo Watson]

BWPv15.1 is released.

 

This time the new release is only a part of what I have planned because due to an electricity failure I lost lots of my work.
I have done some changes in the install order as I was advised in this thread.
Now since Quiet has compiled a new converter finally 1pp HQ Music for BGT is included.

I have added a few new features to the Installpack:

1.    Now you can choose between rated quest and npc mods. The ratings base on the reviews on the German Kerzenburg forum. I don't like to use good or bad marks as in school. Thus the ratings are:
top-rated mods    (excellent good mods)
high-rated mods    (mods that to play is definitely recommended)
middle-rated mods    (mods one can play, but not necessarily)
low-rated mods    (mods that you do not want to play a second time)
not rated mods
I want to suggest someone could create a database where the players could rate all mod as a guidance for other players.

2.    Now you can get a preview of the mods that would be installed with your current settings.

3.    At the end of the installation the whole dialog file can be corrected with a new added tool. There are a lot of misspellings and inconsistence in the dialog files in a megamod. For example there are different spellings for Faerûn: it is also wrongly named Faerun, Farûn or Faêrun. The tool compares a catalogue with the right and the wrong names and corrects them automatically. Currently the catalogue is very incomplete and is more an example of what can be done. Although it is only in German yet, it could also be used for any other language. If you want to use it also for your language, simply send me your own catalogue and I will add it. See the readme inside the Installpack.

The Installpack works flawlessly, however, I don't have time to test the result for the next few weeks. So it is on you whether you want to wait or to test it by yourself.

I alos thank for your hard work.

 

I tested BWP 15.1 individual bat-file and it worked fine.

 

Couple notes though:

 

Kivan NPC has been updated to v15 and component numbers have changed.

 

There's typo in tra.txt:

Area_Patchert=En-0,Ge-0,Sp-0,Ru-0,Fr-0,It-0,Po-0,Cz-0,Ch-0,Ko-0,Ja-0

It probably should be:

Area_Patcher=En-0,Ge-0,Sp-0,Ru-0,Fr-0,It-0,Po-0,Cz-0,Ch-0,Ko-0,Ja-0

[Lollorian]

Is there an updated linkliste available somewhere? This is outdated now I think.

 

I'm trying to set up my environment again and I need to get up to speed (SHS, G3 and PPG were easy enough to update but the other sites and new mods - especially the non-english ones are giving me some trouble to track down ) My last environment was based on BWP 13.0.x or something.
