Quoting from Forum FAQ(Read it,that`s why it`s there [img]tongue.gif[/img] )

Quote:

1) Install the game first
2) Install the Official Patch next
3) Install the Fixpack
4) Install third-party mods if any

Even following that order, things can foul up. For example, installing Ascension after certain mods can foul things up, and I recently found a bug caused by installing Kelsey after the Flirt Packs. So I played around and found a decent order:

1 - SoA and ToB (naturally)
2 - the SoA patch if you DON'T have ToB, or the ToB patch if you do
3 - the Baldurdash fixpack (SoA for SoA-only, ToB for SoA with ToB)
4 - the Baldurdash game text updater (fixes typos and item descriptions)
4 - any mod that is NOT hosted by Team BG, weidu.org, FWprojects, or forgottenwars.net, like the Imoen romance.
5 - any mods that change areas or encounters (Ascension, the Darkest Day, Shadows over Soubar, etc.) NOTE: These mods have a reputation for not being compatible with each other or other mods. Make sure to read the readme.txt file to check compatibility.
6 - The NPC flirt pack from FW
7 - any NPC mods (Sola, Kelsey, Tashia, etc.)

Then follow this order for everything after:

EoU
DBG
Item Upgrade
any other minor mod hosted by Team BG, weidu.org, FWprojects, or forgottenwars.net (spell 50, tactics, universal ioun stone, etc.)
the Baldurdash tweaks (improved Robe of Vecna colors, etc.)
