19. BG2 RULES, TWEAKS AND SPELLS
Install Component 3 [Lich Slayer Scimitar]? [I]nstall
the earlier „Victor‘s Item Pack“
Install Component 4 [The Djin Merchant]? [I]nstall
Install Component 5 [The Burning Man kit for BG2 (byVictor)]? [I]nstall
Install Component 6 [Romance Friendly Imprisonment (by Galactygon)]? [I]nstall
Install Component 7 [Lydia's Scroll]? [I]nstall
This component must be installed before Fading Promises.
Install Component 8 [Weapons for all]? [N]ot Install
If you want to install this component, you should install it after all other item-mods, because it alters
also objects from all other mods installed before. Ashes of Embers has a similar, however
more elaborated component.
Install Component 9 [Special Encounters]? [I]nstall
Install Component 10 [Improved Bard Song]? [N]ot Install
Don't install this component together with other Bard Song Tweaks like the BG2 Fixpack component
Bard Song Fixes.
Install Component 11 [Improved Irenicus Dungeon]? [N]ot Install
This component is for those, which the original dungeon is too boringly, but the "Improved
lIych" from Tactics is to suicidal. The concurrent installation together with "Improved lIIych" is not
recommendable because it could be that you lack some pieces of equipment which you need to
defeat the big boss from "Improved lIych".
By concurrently installation with ROT this component may cause a crash. The crash can be
avoided if the group after the Djinn does not go at the bottom edge of the corridor, but the group
members individually go along the upper edge of the corridor to the sewage golem.
Do not install it together with the component Improved Dungeon from Revised Battles.
Install Component 12 [Grandpa's Shield quest]? [N]ot Install
This component overwrites PALIN.CRE, a Tales of the Sword Coast file

The readme opens.
19.6. gMinion v2
~SETUP-GMINION.TP2~
These scripts increase the ingame intelligence of the creatures that are summoned by spells and
items, so that they behave more in line with the original intentions of both Bioware and more purist
D&D roleplayers.
Spell Revisions is somewhat incompatible with gMinion as that mod is based upon vanilla's creatures,
while SR's ones are heavily changed. Installing gMinion before SR should allow to use its
scripts for non-SR creatures.
Note: This mod was only created for vanilla BGII. The BiG World Fixpack makes some changes
to this mod to adapt it to mega-mods.
19.6.1. Copy the folder gMinion and the files Setup-gMinion.exe and Setup-gMinion.tp2 into your main
