    Official patch is different and Baldurdash fix is different. AFAIK you need to install the officical BG2 patch, THEN Baldurdash, then weidu mods. Can someone confirm me?

    Any non-WeiDu mod
    WeiDu mods

    Hope this helps. :)

    You want the ToB patch version 26498, with or without the Baldurdash Fixpack, you should still install the official patch first.

    The correct order of instal is as Silverstar mentioned. I'm not really sure whether this is what you wanted; you cold try to re-phrase your answer, if this isn't the answer you are looking for.

    EDIT: Meh Kuemper :p . Anyhow you only want to install ONE non-weidu mod. Furthermore Baldurdash is actually a dialog.tlk overwriting mod (iirc anyway), which would bring some conflict regarding any non-weidu mods (they're obsolete and shouldn't be installed if it can be avoided).

    No, you shouldn't install the official patch on top of Baldurdash, or any other third party mod. It needs to be installed directly after TOB.

    Baldurdash has two components which you can get separately. One is a basic fixpack which doesn't affect your game's dialog (the dialog.tlk file) at all; the other, the game text update, is a replacement dialog.tlk file which *must* be installed after the official TOB patch and will cause big problems otherwise. But the latter component is not critical.

    Your best bet is to just reinstall the game, install TOB, then the official patch, then Baldurdash (and the game text update, if you want), and then take it from there.

    Actually, installing the patch and reinstalling baldurdash should be all that's necessary. The patch is just going to overwrite anything that baldurdash has changed, so you really shouldn't have a problem if you just install the patch and then reinstall baldurdash.

    Oh, I thought he had Solaufein installed too.

    Edit: Blah, my bad, I inferred you had a bunch of other mods installed for some reason. Listen to Drew.
