Uninstalled, I currently have IWD, HOW, TOTLM and Project Auril. What order should I install these and what patches will I need?

Thanks,

Lymond

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="#00FF00">IWD then HOW

Now depending on what you want to do:
For TOTLM just install it, as it is the final patch.

If you want to install Project Auril than download the HoW patch first then install Project Auril.

Unless they have released a new version of Project Auril that I am not aware of than it will not work with ToTLM. [img]graemlins/cheers.gif[/img] </font>

pritchke-

Thanks! You've always been there for me.

I'm not the most computer savvy, but I think I installed Project Auril correctly. I selected the "Icewind Dale" folder as my destination and exported the files. Is there any way to tell if it worked properly? I don't want to get part way through the game and realize it didn't work.

One indication that I may have blown it is that I have no portraits folder. On that issue, I copied my BG2 portraits over and, although you can see the file names in character creation, you can't see the actual photos. What's going on with that?

Project Auril has been discontinued (as of 06-04) and is no longer supported. Please dowload the latest version of Auril's Bane.

Also, I'd like to know where you downloaded Project Auril (if it was a recent download), if you can tell me.

Cheers,

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="#00FF00">Sweet!!!! Project Auril ia a part of Auril's Bane and it can be used with TotLM. So Lymond if you get Auril's Bane than install it after ToTLM. I loved both Project Auril and TotLM so now I can play them both. Winter's Bane was OK, but wasn't worth it for me so combining it with Project Auril to make Auril's Bane is actually a nice touch. If anyone like Battelmages than you should be able to make several in your party and still wear some nice armor and cast spells with this mod.</font>

You might want to try our Tweak Pack too, from http://www.gibberlings3.net/daletweak/ - install it after Auril's Bane. [img]smile.gif[/img]

There's not too many other IWD1 mods about. Grog's mod as he mentioned is probably the biggest.

EDIT: The install order for the Tweak Pack is not crucial. Just install all mods after official expansions/patches. I suggested after Auril's Bane as then your tweaks will apply to things from AB too.

Yes, the Tweak pack has some things that [IMO] compliment AB very nicely. As Andyr said, the Tweak Pack is best installed after AB.

The new version of Auril's Bane will have increased compatiblity with the Tweak Pack, as it will check to see if certain components are already installed.

<font color = lightgreen>Ok, ok. I keep hearing about Auril's Bane so much here lately that now I am compelled to install it. Fortunately, I just started a new party (who are trying to clean out a cave outside Easthaven) so I shouldn't miss anything. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

Yay, a convert! :D

Just a warning: there are a couple of spots in the game with 'artilery archers' that are a bit too powerful for the areas they're in (AB v1.3 will balance that much better). You may want some fire protection in 3 lvl ED
