Is it possible to:
- Install BG/Tales/SoA/ToB - Install this - Then install extras and mods ??? I also need to know if I can choose the Assassin kit right from the start of the game. Also, is there any chance of the BG Experience cap being removed entirely, it would make the game so much more fun

well BGT also does a bit more than just adding BG1. AFAIK it also gives you the possibility to take BG1 NPCs to SoA, have Imoen, Jaheira and Minsc transfer with the stats they had at the end of BG1 makes the story more coherent,...

Okay, I'll try and address all your questions.

However, BG1Tutu isn't one big monstrous game. You play through BG1 after running bg1tutu.exe and then once you've completed it, you run bg1tutu_restore.exe, which reverts BGII back to normal and splices You can still start a normal New Game after running bg1tutu_restore.exe as well. Quote:

Installing any *BGII* extras/mods is kind of pointless until you actually start playing BGII again since the BGII content is unaccessable while BG1Tutu is installed. |

So let me see if I've got it right. They both have their pluses and minuses.
BGT- massive download, and hellish installation, but you can play straight through the whole series. BG1TUTU- much smaller download, simpler install, but you need to convert the BG2 game back and forth to play the whole series. Have I got it right? Is there anything I've missed? Can we make a compilation list to make sure we've got everything so that everyone can make the best decision for themselves?

I heard otherwise actually, but perhaps this feature is part of a recent patch, then? |

You install BG1Tutu, play it, and when you're done with it you run bg1tutu_restore.exe to restore your BGII install. I realize that some people may want to play BGII while BG1Tutu is installed, but because of many problems (Worldmap, patching the exe for 0 XP, etc.) you can't. And if my understanding is correct, with BGT you can't just start in Irenicus' dungeon either can you? |
