Hi. I've played both BGII SOA and TOB a while a go, and decided to buy a copy of BG-Original Saga (BGI&TotSC). However, I was a bit dismayed to find that the old game, though excellent, was clearly not as good as the new one... (reasonable, given the major upgrade in the engine). So I decided to try BGT-WeiDU.
Can anyone help me in the process of a creating a solid installation of these four games, using the BGT. I really don't have any plans of using any major mods and the like, do as far as I can see, if I should change my mind, most Mods I like are WeiDU, and from what I've gathered, that should pretty much ensure compatibility.
I have:
Baldur's Gate The Original Saga (Can anyone tell me what is the latest recommended patch?)
Baldur's Gate II - SoA (Can anyone tell me what is the latest recommended patch?)
Baldur's Gate II - ToB (Can anyone tell me what is the latest recommended patch?)
Baldur's Gate II - SoA Collector's Edition, and Baldur's Gate II - SoA Bonus CD
BGT-WeiDU v1.07
BGT Tweak v8
Yoshimo Friendship v1.0
NPC Flirt Packs v1.02 (from pocketplane)
Banter Packs v9.0 (from pocketplane)
G3 BG2 Fix Pack v8.0
G3 BG2 Tweak Pack v7.0
Improved Robe of Vecna
That's all I have. Should I try and find FixPatches for BG1 and TotSC? Or should it be really clean and vanilla for the BGT installation to work? Also, what order should I install these in, and would the Tweak Pack found in the G3BG2TP still work? I liked a lot of the tweaks found there.
Finally, is there a Viconia romance/banter mod for the BG1 part of the game? I plan to have her as my one and only girl throughout the entire saga.
From what I can guess, the correct order should be:
BG 1 - Original Saga (Includes TotSC and patched to the newest version, I think)
BG 2 - SoA then BG 2 - ToB, patched to 26498 (or should I use 26499Beta?)
BG 2 Collector's Edition; BG 2 Bonus CD
G3 BG2 Fix Pack
BGT-WeiDU
G3 BG2 Tweak Pack
BGT Tweak
Yoshimo Friendship
Banter Pack
Flirt Pack
Improved Robe of Vecna
Is this good? Any suggestions are welcome!
PS: What is the BG1 NPC Project? Is it any good? Should I include it? Is it compatible? When should I install it, in the over-all procedure? Thanks.
