I know there are alot of this kind of questions but i just wonder abit about TDD mods compatibillity. The mods i want are:
Assassination
Unfinished Buissnies
TDD v1.3
Willie Bruce

Thats it... I started with these but i have experienced a small bug, I found a shield +1 on a goblin in irenicus prison which i've never found before so im just wondering... I installed in this order:
TDD
Assasination
UB
WillieBruce

Maybe i did something wrong...
Oh btw: I have ToB and all the official patches and the Baldurdash fixpack and i have a baldurdash fixfile which restores the missspelling in the games texts...

Thx /qeed

The +1 Shield is, in my guess, probably a result of The Darkest Day. It affects and adds things to the entire game. It's probably not a bug, per se.

Assassinations should work fine with your game, and, yes, TDD adds items(NPCs, new spell scrolls, etc) throughout Irenicus's Dungeon and beyond.

OK very nice and thank you very much!!

To follow this up i just wonder if the mod called Quest Pack also will work with these mods? I was worried that the quests would interfeer with eachother...

Supposedly TDD and Quest Pack [url="http://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php/topic,20336.0.html"]are compatible[/url]. Make sure to use the Weidu version of TDD. As a side note, TDD is a strange, massive mod and is probably more likely to interfere with other mods than average. So, it's possible you'll run into problems at some point. Personally, I really loathe the parts of TDD I've tried, and I recommend it to no one, except those I want to punish. But, hopefully, you'll enjoy it. The Quest Pack is well done, though.

Really? Why is that? I know this might seem a bit offtopic but it wpuld be fun to know... And for the record, i want to use TDD because i REALLY hate ToB. I'm only having it installed because of WK and experience lvl cap thingy.

I'll caveat by saying, I uninstalled TDD long before it's copmletion. So take my comments for what they are. I think your enjoyment of TDD depends greatly on what parts of BG2 you like, I imagine.

For me, I like the role playing and the immersion. I felt TDD ruined that. The dialogue is poorly constructed and downright corny (intentionally so) at times (Irenicus' response in the start dungeon is a prime example). The new NPCs were uninteresting.

If you like hack and slash, you'll enjoy the mod. It basically consists of a series of new areas and dungeons for you to battle your way through. There's not much nuance. The kits and items are a bit unbalancing and overpowered, which bothered me as well.

In my estimation, there are much better ways to mod your game. In terms of balance fun additional quest mod: Quest Pack, G3 Anniversary Mod, Unfinished Business are all very well done. There are others, generally if it's a Pocket Plane Group or Gibberlings3 mod, I trust it.

If you want good NPC mods, try Kelsey, Keto, Xan, Solaufein, Saerileth, and there other qualities one. Banter Packs, Flirt Packs, Romantic Encounters, and other such things enhance this element of the game play, as well.

If you want good tactical related mods, Tactics makes things much more challenging.

If you want to enhance ToB content and encounters, consider using Ascension and, possibly, Redemption. Quest Pack also affects it to some extent.

There are a plethora of quality, balanced, consistent mods out there. I just didn't find TDD to be to my particular tastes. I think if you just want something that adds a large amount of content of varying degrees of quality, then it may be more of your cup of tea than mine.
