Hi.
Well, to make a long story short: why is it not recommended? I'm curious why this fixpack seems to be the reason for many bugs or other problems. Because it's poorly modded? Because of the methods used to actually "fix" things? Something else? |

One more point which is worth mentioning is that putting the subjective tweaks of the BG2 fixpack into one or more "optional" components will not change the fact that they are "tweaks" (rather than fixes). So, the entire discussion over having those components as optional doesn't have much significance to me. In other words, making them optional will not change tweaks to fixes; they will only turn to be optional tweaks (rather than mandatory tweaks). BG2 fixpack is actually a tweakpack (which pretends to be a fixpack) regardless of whether those tweaks are optional or not.
