Could you please makr only necessary components?

Well, if you don't want fixes and optional components from BD, you may skip everything except #0 and #2 (just to let the installer proceed). But then why do you need BD at all? You have your G3 fix and a tone of other things fixing and improving.

The information is for updating BWS BD+TS+NeJ rules: "TS needs BDToBv168 (component 0) or BDToBv174 (component 0)" to "TS needs BDToBv168 (component 0) or BDToBv174 (component 0 and 2)"

So you telling me that because of the similar fixes present in G3 BG2 Fixpack, TS can be installed with it instead of BD 174?

[Vlad]

I don't know to which information you relate and what do you want to do. If you want to make it compatible with Mega Mod, then there is a different forum at SHS. Here we discuss only recommended installations.

I found the problem! I only installed some parts of Baldurdash, because I didn't want everything. Apparently you cannot leave out the "Third path" component, because it will break the TS installation.

Thanks for finding this. Yes, Third Path obviously uses Kachiko's dialogue, and that's why I've included it in Baldurdash. But it's strange that APPEND turns to APPEND_EARLY by WeiDU v185.

Anyway, if Third Path solves the problem, so be it.

[EDIT] I'll separate Third Path from TS in future by creating an additional DLG directory in TS installation, but for now please install it as a necessary component.

I'ts exactly what I've asked. You are author of the TS/,BD,NeJ code so you are the first person to ask. I'm glad that you want to remove requirements of BD component because it allows to skip it and have less code-dependency.

You also need the "Boo - Familiar of Minsc" component for TS to work. It even says so in the BD installer
