Hmm, this intrigues me greatly. Has anyone tried it? Any thoughts about it?

When I open this link in a new window, I get a screen that sez you have been banned. Good Gaming.

I have no clue why it does that!

Anyway, it shows istructions on how to play the game with loads of mods on.

I mean, you could play with: Shadows over Soubar + The Darkest Day + Tortured Souls + Freedom's Reign + Reign of Virtue + Ease Of Use + Item Upgrade + Redemption + Imoen's Romance.

One might think the way becomes way too munchkin with all these on. Not me though. I'm a real sucker for mods. [img]graemlins/1drool.gif[/img]

It's the Big Picture mod, i think. Try it, sounds cool. Let us know how it goes.

uss · 06-08-2004, 07:44 AM

Aye-aye, that it is! The site's official page is in http://plaguezone.com.

I can't try it out yet, since my brother is currently playing BG: SoA + ToB vanilla.. It's his very first time. [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I will try it as soon as he finishes, that's I think a few weeks from now.

As I know there are at least some people here who have finished the game countless times, I though those of you would be interested and try it in the meanwhile. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have it installed with all the mod´s. So far it´s been working smoothly. It combines all the mods listed in previous posts and more. I`ve only visited TDD areas so far but other mods seems to work too. It makes the gme completely different.

Since the game includes so much more XP with all the mods BP reduses XP you get severly. Making the beginning of the game harder.

I´m curretly playing a drow warrior. Whis is WAAAAY owerpowered but who cares. Or what do you think about a fighter with a natural 80% MR=)

Wow, XP penalty? I love that!

The thing that it changes the game completely is kind of the point for me.

How many NPCs are there this time around? I'm estimating that there's around 10-30 new NPCs but I don't know.

How many NPC? About a gazillion =) Most of them are nothing special and have no party banter. If you want interesting NPC`s go with NPC-mods. My party has Chloe, Edwin, Xzar, Valen and Viconia.

Only Edwin and Viconia beeing originals. Chloe and Valen are own mods whish will work with the BP. IIRC Xzar comes with TDD. Some times it feels that there are more NPC`s than commoners walking around.

BP readme has a list of known mods and how they react with the BP. Just follow it and it`s easy to install. It may cause some difficulties to find the right version of a mod though.
