    [​IMG] Hello.

    After taking a long break from the game, I've decided to reinstall BGII - SoA & ToB, and start playing again. I have a question about installing the patches.

    [1] After installing SoA & ToB, should I install the SoA patch before the ToB patch?

    [2] Are there any technical issues related to the patches that I should be aware of?

    Thank you in advance,

    Sokolovski

    You do not need to install the SoA patch - it is automatically patched with the installation of ToB.
    Just install the game and the ToB patch.

    [2]: Don't know if that's what you mean, but look here.

    Stu is correct.

    Installing the SoA patch after installing ToB would mess up a lot of things.

    SoA then ToB then ToB patch is the way to do it. :rolling:

    Does the TOB patch stop the "X character appears busy." bug? It only affected me once I'd installed ToB, and 'tis really annoying having to reload quick saves to talk to the person in question.

    Mr. C, yes, the ToB patch stops that bug.
