Styphelus

First time BGT user. Been using Tutu for the last few years.

So I finally installed BGT last night but noticed some strange random encounters right from the start. Dire Wolfs and bands of Bandits when all i have is a short sword and leather armour is a bit tough.

Is there a fix for this?

Also, should I install anything else? I just want to play through the original games without too many modifications since I never finished any of them. Only thing I've installed so far were the improved paper dolls update.

Any other recomendations? I'm thinking maybe Indira NPC. Not sure about the BG1NPC Project. Should I install that as well? Or any other mini quests that don't deviate too much from the original gameplay and won't gime any bugs?
