Installation order

ElfBane · 06-27-2004, 08:05 AM

I have read Icelus' non-sticky thread(it should be a sticky,BTW) and have a question. Is it OK to install like this:
1. IWD
2. HoW
3. HoW patch (v.1.41)
4. start playing the game..I'm not past the Vale of Shadows yet.
5. TotLM expansion/patch...UK version 1.42,,,,,,I can't find,or there isn't, a US English version. No big deal to me, but will the UK version work with what I already have(US versions).

I would think this would be OK, since it is quite possible to have started playing the game, and then want to add TotLM. I have no Mods installed, but will probably install EoU.

Try this site for the standard US version of TolM.

(edit: Actually ignore the above link - it's a mirror site for THIS link ...)

http://www.fileplanet.com/files/60000/62184.shtml

That site lists the TolM expansion file as HOWTrials.exe and it is the US version. I don't recall seeing a separate UK version for Trials. Check the file names as the French, Italian and other foreign language versions all have separate file names.

You shouldn't need the HOW patch installed if you are installing TolM over HOW. Double check Icelus' post for the exact sequence if you are installing any mods, but I believe the EoU mod installs AFTER everything else is installed. Double check the readme on this site:
