    There are so many mods listed on this site that it's impossible to keep up with what goes where. I dont have ToB yet and it takes way too long to determine which mods are compatible with SoA only, and which are not. Could you guys put a tag on mods so that we know if they are SoA only or ToB only?

    Amongst the mods that I want to install this time around are ...
    KelseyNPCv21.zip
    custom_items.zip
    gbthfkpv.2.8.zip
    BanterPacksV5.zip
    FWPI-V021.zip
    Oversight-SOAV1.6.zip
    Cloakwood2.zip
    SPfixpack.zip
    TurnipGolemV1.zip
    hell-214.zip
    CLK20FIX.zip
    DGItems.zip
    Stuff_of_the_Magi.zip
    D0Quest_v1.exe
    ImprovedAsylumV92.exe
    NMBeauty-v2.exe
    UnfinishedBusiness13.exe
    G3Anniversary-v2.exe
    G3Tweaks-v7.exe
    Weimer-ItemUpgrade-v32.exe
    ImprovedBAMs-v2.exe
    aPack.exe
    Weimer-Ease-v28.exe
    Weimer-Underrep-v2.exe
    SPCollection-v4.exe
    BG2FixPack361.exe
    NPCKit-v072.exe
    Sharpshooter-v3.exe
    calculatorv1.0.1.exe

    Which of these are/aren't SoA only compatible?
    And in what order should I be installing them?

    Finally, what are the Tortured Souls & Never Ending Journey mods? Do you need to have both BG II and IWD installed for them to work?

    I'll speak for the G3 ones: G3 Tweaks, G3 Anniversary, Sharpshooter, NPC Kit (save the component for the ToB NPC of course) and SP Collection will all work on an SoA-only install.

    I'd put G3 Tweaks last if you want to install the tweaks that affect items or dialogues since it will alter content from other mods but only if it is installed after them. I'd try to put SP Collection second-to-last in the order for the same reason if you're planning on using the Arcane Fist, Sylvan Mystic, and Archer of Sylvanus kits. If not, then SPC can go more or less anywhere in the order, as can the other three.

    Listing just filenames isn't very helpful... I recognize some minor override hacks from the names (those should work fine on SoA-only), but I don't have time to go checking the actual mod names for every file name you listed...

    The SP Fixpack is SoA-only, and says so on the list. All mods hosted on SP also have listed whether they are SoA or ToB only. Or rather, if nothing is listed, they should work on both.

    SoA-only is not supported with this one. It might work, but I can't promise that you will have bugfree operation.
