Roxanne Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 DSotSC is still indicated as beta on the list in the first entry. Is this classification still necessary? it is one of the first mods that was availble for EET and should be considered tested by now - no bugs were reported, I have been through it at least 3 times myself without issue.

Brunardo Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks for the link Roxanne, Had another question more for this thread I think - EET set up with BWS was telling me couldnt find SOD so I download BGEE/SOD from Beamdog and was fine after finding the folder but I noticed some of the mods that were on BGEE such as BP, solaufein etc were not coming up on EET any more...guessing its not compatible for the trilogy although if I take out SOD and had only BGEE/BG2EE then its ok? should I download them before/after? That is more an error in BWS again (if your memory is correct) since BP or Solofein should never be on BGEE (Solaufein is a BG2 mod). And none of them are EET compatible. (refer to the first post of this thread). There is a new Solaufein mod you find on that list (Alpha status). On that list you also see that some mods install on BGEE prior EET and some on BG2EE after you installed EET - however if you use BWS then the tool will do all of this for you. PS - to use EET you ALWAYS need SoD. Thanks for the details Roxanne, cant seem to update BWS - turned off my user control and norton so unsure whats the issue. interested in some of BP encounters like poison encounter and with Sola, if I install after my BWS it could be incompatible then...

Roxanne Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) I have made a patch to make Expanded Thief Stronghold mod available for EET. The mod adds some further quests to the thief stronghold in BG2 and imports Narlen and Black Lilly from the BG1 Shadow Thieves to Amn. The original mod http://www.shsforums.net/files/file/757-expanded-thief-stronghold/ needs to be patched with GBThfKp_EET_Patch.rar before installing in EET. The patch includes - All fixes from BWFixpack for the mod - Updated portraits - An option to select the improved Mae'Var component directly during install - An option to make the stronghold available for any PC. (Note - the two options existed in the mod but where not selectable in the install - you had to extract and overwrite files instead, I adjusted this to up-to-date practice as optional components.) Reminds me that I should probably make a note somewhere prominent on that site to let people know that they have permission to do whatever they want with any of the old BG mods that I have.Regards,GB Edited March 7, 2017 by Roxanne Quote Link to comment

Brunardo Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Any help on the above much appreciated, also looks like DSotSC isnt compaitble too? SKIPPING: [Dark Side of the Sword Coast (DSotSC)] This mod is not compatible with your game C:\Program Files (x86)\Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition\Data\00783> This mod is not compatible with your game Dark Side of the Sword Coast (Dark Side of the Sword Coast for BGT and EET) was skipped Quote Link to comment
Roxanne Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 1. Is this where you want to install your EET C:\Program Files (x86)\Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition\Data\? Installation within Program Files or Program Files (x86) is not recommended due to the potential for O/S related issues (e.g. UAC trouble). Unless you are sure that you have full UAC permissions consider moving BG:EE and BG2:EE outside this directory (the game is DRM free, so there are no problems with doing so). 2. Are you using the right version of DSotSC? Dark Side of the Sword Coast BGT/EET edition vBETA or above (this is NOT version released for BG:EE) Quote Link to comment
Fouinto Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I have made a patch to make Expanded Thief Stronghold mod available for EET. Hey, I love this mod ! Well thank you, I will include it in my next run for sure Quote Link to comment

Roxanne Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Did you use latest BWS https://bitbucket.org/BigWorldSetup/bigworldsetup/get/master.zip? Sandrah did not install at all because of the other missing mods (Dark Side of the Sword Coast and NTotSC for EET Interim Version. maybe more), this is therefore correct. Why those others fail? You still try to install to C:\Program Files (x86)\ which always produces problems Installation within Program Files or Program Files (x86) is not recommended due to the potential for O/S related issues (e.g. UAC trouble). Unless you are sure that you have full UAC permissions consider moving BG:EE and BG2:EE outside this directory (the game is DRM free, so there are no problems with doing so). Quote Link to comment
subtledoctor Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm guessing the SCS components may have failed for the same reason that Sam saw on the last page. I've posts in the SCS thread for help debugging, but haven't heard back yet. Quote Link to comment
Brunardo Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 thanks guys, I thought I had the latest update but maybe not BigWorldSetup--bde56330dc72 is the one I used, when I follow the link above not the same...I also did install through C:\Program Files (x86) and guessing thats the reason then too and shouldve done under a different folder from beamdog then... Got most of my mods so not sure if I should just try it out and save those mods above for my next playthrough as dont want to delete everything and restart the process...sucks some SCS components didnt install though.

Brunardo Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 stupid question but can I try installing it over again for the ones I missed or any easy workaround besides starting from scratch again? Quote Link to comment
Roxanne Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 stupid question but can I try installing it over again for the ones I missed or any easy workaround besides starting from scratch again? If you use BWS, you can use the folder with the downloaded (unpacked) mods again. BWS finds them and only downloads what is missing - the may shorten the process significantly. Quote Link to comment
Jarno Mikkola Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) You can also move the download folder AND the files in it to anywhere you like. So first move the files, and then when you have the folder where you like, then run the BWS and relocate the Download folder when it asks where you like it to be. It's the same screen you define the games directory. Edited March 12, 2017 by Jarno Mikkola Quote Link to comment
