Which patches for the 4 DVD collection?

Post by wise grimwald »

I have recently bought the 4 DVD collection of BG1, ToSC, SoA and ToB.
I installed the patch on the ToB disc, but the game still appears very buggy. I am wondering if I need another patch from Bioware. On their site it is as if this new version does not exist. Does anyone know which, if any further patches need to be used?

I'm playing a Tutu game of the same DVD version you have. I installed the international patch TotSC patch for BGI and the English ToB patch for BGII. All of it of Bioware's website, and so far no Issues/Bugs.

If your looking for (easy) tutu patch/mod order let me know, and I'll post it when I get home. I managed to track down an excellent thread on pocket plane (IIRC) all about it, and have it saved on my home computer :)

Have found that the issue is probably not the version but that I had XP installed. There is a load of info about it on the Bioware Forum, so I'll trawl through it and find out what the solution is. Thanks for the help though, and I would appreciate the mod order info as I am planning on trying out Tutu and other mods.

A link to this thread should be a sticky on both the BGI and BGII forums here methinks :) Enjoy the read, here is everything you need to get started with Tutu

The usoutpost page for easytutu says US only.
The other link is to foreign languages.
My problem is that I speak english, but being in the UK I am concerned that there might be a problem using the US version.
Could someone please clarify.
The other problem is with regard to the SoA patch. I am considering installing SoA by itself first as I understand that if you install ToB, there is a problem with the Jaheira romance.
Under the list of patches there are two, and I am not sure which I need or both. The first is UK version and the other is english version direct8+ or something similar.

Have solved the problem with regards to installation. The disc that I had for ToSC said that it would only work in Canada and the UK. The UK patch fixed that. The ToB patch solved my other problems with regard to "Character is busy" etc. Of course I don't know yet if all probs are solved, but no doubt I will soon find out.
