TParis: What about a guide for people who only wish to play BG1? Thanks in advance.
GoJays2025: Why would anyone want to do that??? :p
bloyall: What about existing BG1 save games? Can they be run with these mods? Or is this only for starting fresh?
GoJays2025: I think you may have to start from the beginning again. Since you'll be running BG1 in BG2's engine using these mods, I can't say that the saves will be compatible. You can always try if you'd like. BGT-Weidu does not modify your existing BG1 installation.
EDIT: Forgot to mention in my original post that you can remove your BG1 installation after transitioning it to the BG2 engine. Fixed now.
Sorry to ask. I just finished BG 1 using GOG and just installed Baldur's gate 2 using GOG. Is there a way to import my character?
