I've seen a Lord Of The Rings mod for BG2, it's just a saved game, and you play through Helm's Deep. You get to kill characters such as Uruk-Hai, Gollum, and you even get to have Gandalf in your party.
I'd like to make a complete Lord Of The Rings mod for Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, with completely original art and new animations.
Say I could make the art and animation, how would I go about remaking the entire game?

Erm... you do realise that "how to make a total conversion?" is not kind of a question to be easily answered? Probably the best way to go about it is to pick up a mod which has the conversion scheme you like (ie acces to the new areas from specific point in the game, or bran new game at starting BG2... etc ) and study how the creators did it - or if the authors are forthcoming - ask them specific questions. And meanwhile do what you can do - ie if you can do area art - prepare the areas etc :)

Eh? Why would you kill Gollum at Helm's Deep?

Anyways i'm pretty sure EA wouldn't allow it...

Do you know where can I find LOTR portraits for BGII? It is easy to find main characters but I am mainly interested in ork faces (they make really good half-orcs).

Then she saw his eyes, red and mad as hell. And in that moment she knew that he could kill anyone, no matter how strong. Madness, true madness could put a fist through a plank.

Do an image search on google & resize would be the best bet.

If someone does start this mod-type thing, I'll volunteer (Actually, more like demand) to make sure it runs true.

I have made two (well, OK, one and a half) LotR mods!

I'd link you, but TBG is down. They are an item pack, replacing some items in the game with LotR items, and the One Ring. Shall I upload them?

I've seen the LotR item pack, and if BGII wasn't busy hating me right now, I'd use it.
