TS 10th time, or the compatibility test with TS, and IA 5.0 begins Options

[trufa]

My suggestion is that you (trufa) play IA v5 with TS or NEJ2 (or both) and send us your reports. Even if you notice something vaguely odd during the game, don't think that it's not important. You can check your progress with Vlad and me through PMs and we will see if any conflict exists and will try to solve the possible problems.

In general, I agree that compatibility between these big and complex mods is a very desirable goal. Each of these mods alone adds so much new content to the game. If we can have them together on a single installation, it will result in the maximum possible modded content for BG2

We have reached the day, when IA 5.0 comes out, so the test shall begin.

My party:
Kachiko (kensai-mage dual wield Dak'Kon blade. (I love it, almost much as Sime Romance) The perfect IA character
Yoshimo (Fighter->Thief dualclass Blade of Night (+4 TS katana for thieves)+ IA assassin dagger It is a neccessary changing, because the original Yoshimo in 4.2, was almost death, at the first blow, and optimalizing his ThS-s
Sime (Stalker-Cleric Maces, Flails, Hammers)The new ItemUpgrades can possibly make Sime same powerful IA character, as Kachiko is.
Immy (Sorceress, and with the TS Mage-Rings she would be a weapon of mass destruction)
Aerie Depend on the PC-s Class could she be Cleric-Mage (think as a partybuffer mage type (Mass invisibility,improved haste, and such spellz)), or a single class Cleric (Think she as a good alligned Viccy. Some strategy, with the cool drow priestess)
PC Male, this is sure, but his class isn't decided yet. Possible options are Elven Fighter-Mage (Hesperus+TheTruth(Until then Kiss the Gloomfrost good TS+4 long sword in the mainquest)),another Kensai-Mage (go to Elemental staff), gnome Fighter-Illusionist (possibly elemental staff, but halberd is also possible), or Vagrant (a piercing, a slashing, and a crushing weapon(in that case would be Aerie cleric-mage))


If you have some good tips, or hints, or you will also test TS and IA 5.0, You would have lot's of my thanks (possibly Vlad's and Sikret's too, especially if you post also your experiences with these 2 cool mods

Yes, and I wrote some MINOR problems, we can say TS and IA are least 80-85% compatible with eachother, but the real reason is Yoshimo, and the fact, that you must do fairly early the shade lord quest to romance Valygar or Sime, that I don't recommend to install TS and IA, but if you wouldn't romance with Valygar and Sime, and you can through Yoshi in IA, GOod luck, and have some good experiences. It would be some.
