First off, what patches are you running? If you're running patch 3 to deal with the looting bug, you're not likely to find many fan-made things working right. That's because they're all coded for patch 2 and temple.zip instead.

Temple.zip also includes the level uncapper inside it, so if you're running that, you've already got the cap off. If you aren't, you should be.

That's my advice anyway.

Ahh see I didnt get temple.zip
I already patched with the third patch, oh well!!

It'll only take a few minutes to uninstall and reinstall with the other patch setup. It's really worth it, IMO. If all you change is temple.zip instead of patch 3, your saved games should still work fine. Just copy the save folder elsewhere before uninstalling and replace it once the new install is in place.

PS: Hooray for Zhou Tai!

Hahaha

I already decided, sience this is my first play through, I'll just play it this way. But once im done, I'll make an IronMan game with the Temple.zip and all that goodness.
So I have another question:
Could you make a list of patches/mods you would suggest to make the game more awsomely funner then it already is?? And a link to where I can download them if you could be so kind mr moderater man.

Tha'd be awsome!!

Well, the most stable as-designed setup is just patch 2 + temple.zip

After that, it depends on the bells and whistles you want. I've added Drifter's "Humble NPC patch" to my 2+temple setup, and it works really well (removes the very annoying aspects of NPCs, but is a bit like cheating if you don't keep yourself honest).

Most people (especially those who find the game too easy because of poor AI) find Livonya's mod to be very good. It's improved the quests immensely by adding new interesting ones that are real head-scratchers, and has made the game much harder by improving the AI of spellcasters and such (they now actually use their spells).

There's also the co8 mod, which adds many weapons like the katana and such, and gives Brother Smyth masterwork items and the like. Mostly small convenience and variety/power-gamer stuff. Shining Ted and Allyx have also done a lot of tweaking.

Basically, it's just too much to list all the combos and such. I suggest you check out the many threads on the various mods over at http://www.co8.org, which is kinda like Temple modders headquarters. There, depending on which patches you want to run, you can find info/advice on what the best install-pattern is going to be.

Cheers.
