    [​IMG] Is it worth installing. I've been reading the info on it and it says you have to start a new game. Does this mean that I'll have to start right from the start of the whole game again??

    Yes, you do have to start a new game. I have DSOTSC and I highly recommend it...however, I've heard that it can be buggy (I've had no problems...)There are new spells, items, npcs, quests, monsters, etc.

    I guess I might as well then. I'm only at Beregost at the moment so it shouldn't be much of a loss.

    I think it actually is at that point, you should start a new game.

    DSotSC is riddled with bugs, and adds too many powerful items that make the game too easy, especially for a druid

    [​IMG] I just finished the DSOTSC quests. Toughest battles in the game!!! Yes, there are some powerful items, but you don't have to use them if you feel they would throw off game balance (keep in mind, though, that Dark Side does make the entire game more difficult.)
    BTW, I LOVE the scroll-case and Bag-O-Holding!!!

    [​IMG] What sort of bugs...little aggravations or worse? I was planning on reinstalling BG/TotSC along with DSotSC so I can grow another character to continue forth with in BG2...but if it's too buggy, I won't bother.

    Most of the bugs were cleaned-up in vers 1.2 which is the one avalible now. Pretty much all thats left is: Farie fire causes confusion and seems to last forever,there are no restoration spells which can make the first quest a real pain and it will still ocasionally crash back to your desk-top but all the major bugs are gone.
