1) You write in the readme:
My present compilation comprises the following components:

[...]
Baldurdash Fix Pack for SoA-ToB, v1.76 WeiDU
Tortured Souls v7.06
Keldorn Romance v1.0
Third Path
[...]

When you try to install Vlad’s compilation, the first component you are asked to install is named “My compilation” and I guess it’s the four mods above. Any chance of splitting them?
Especially because TS actually locks you into doing TS. See here: http://forums.blackwyrmlair.net/index.php?...ost&p=25113

2) Third path: when you meet Drizzt, he tells you that you killed Bodhi and his guild. But that ain’t true. I went third path.


3) When installing Vlad’s compilation
- you get asked to install first “Cromwell in Brynlaww and item upgrade”
then
- item upgrade
Is there a reason these two components are splitted?








TORTURED SOULS

4) I understand your idea of chromatic dragon (chromatic demon a la Watcher’s keep) but... the player has no informations on how to beat him.
I mean... if you were in Watcher’s keep you would get the following informations:
[taken from here: https://sorcerers.net/Games/BG2/Walkthrough...ental-level.php
From the four Library Notes you can learn that:
- Ice is vulnerable to Fire.
- Fire is vulnerable to Ice.
- Slime is vulnerable to Electricity.
- Air is vulnerable to Acid and Poison.
- And also quite important: The Chromatic Demon is next to invulnerable to physical attacks and he regenerates quickly].
But here you are not in Watcher’s keep and there is a chance you haven’t even played it.

Also, Chromatic Dragons are a subtype of dragons. https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Chromatic_dragon
I found the name of the dragon weird, even if I understood that it was related to watcher’s keep chromatic demon.

5) Any chance to remove the death effect if you leave the dueling area with the katana(s)? Just being greedy with loot ahah.

6) Tortured souls: Can you actually touch the content of TS? If you enter the asylum as a patient, then wait for Irenicus, when he appears, he spills his beans and tells you everything about him. I don’t like this, because it totally diminishes the impact of Irenicus by making the player carefully sum each clue he is finding during his playthrough. Reading Irenicus saying that he hates her (referring to Ellesime), that he was an elven mage, etc etc, that he studied necromancy falls short and make the game feel like those bad movies where things are told rather than shown. There is a video here that shows such a phenomena:

7) last but not least important. I would like to install NEJ in my next playthrough, but it seems that Vlad's compilation is a requisite. I wonder if it is due to the fixpack contained inside Vlad. Can you make it possible to install Nej without having to install TS + KR?

8) Any chance you could be making the Gui contained in Vlad's compilation optional?
Some informations on why I'm asking this: http://www.shsforums.net/topic/60658-compa...oject-infinity/

9) Any chance of adding mod metadata inside both Nej and Vlad? See here: https://github.com/ALIENQuake/ProjectInfini...etadata-for-mod

10) Don't forget about this, please: http://forums.blackwyrmlair.net/index.php?showtopic=5457

11) Would it be possible to split Sime romance (given that it has no ToB) and why not, also Valygar romance?

12) Leina's romance issue: https://ibb.co/vxtQHT3
Some more informations of what I’ve done on that game:
1) Bodhi path
2) I spared the father
3) I killed Duvaine right when leaving the labyrinth area
