MAKE WATCHER’S KEEP ACCESSIBLE BETWEEN SOA AND TOB<br />

In roleplaying terms, <strong>the</strong> natural time to explore Watchers' Keep is between <strong>the</strong> end of Shadows of Amn and<br />

<strong>the</strong> start of Throne of Bhaal. Be<strong>for</strong>e chapter 4 you're probably too weak; in chapters 6 and 7 of SoA you're in a<br />

desperate race against time; in ToB, <strong>the</strong> way <strong>the</strong> start works makes it difficult not to take random time off from<br />

urgent business to explore Watchers' Keep.<br />

This component moves <strong>the</strong> start location of Throne of Bhaal to Watcher’s Keep, so that you're moved <strong>the</strong>re immediately<br />

after <strong>the</strong> end of SoA. You can <strong>the</strong>n explore WK to your heart's content. When you want to start ToB,<br />

just leave WK via <strong>the</strong> world map. You can still return to WK after leaving.<br />

Be warned: you don't have any stable base, or any way to change your party, as long as you're starting at<br />

WK. If you find you need ei<strong>the</strong>r, you'll need to do <strong>the</strong> first part of ToB. Similarly, although you could start a new<br />

game of ToB using this component, this is only a good idea if you're masochistic enough to want to solo<br />

Watchers' Keep with a starting-level ToB character!<br />

26.13. Baldur’s <strong>Gate</strong> Trilogy - Music<br />

~SETUP-BGTMUSIC.TP2~<br />

This mod must be installed to play <strong>the</strong> right music with <strong>Baldur's</strong> <strong>Gate</strong> and <strong>the</strong> Legends of <strong>the</strong> Sword<br />

Coast.<br />

You can change <strong>the</strong> settings of this mod at any time because <strong>the</strong> remaining <strong>installation</strong> will not be<br />

affected!<br />

26.13.1. The folder music and <strong>the</strong> files Setup-BGTMusic.exe and Setup-BGTMusic.tp2 have been copied<br />

into your main SoA directory toge<strong>the</strong>r with BGT-WeiDU.<br />

26.13.2. Double-click <strong>the</strong> Setup. The DOS dialogue appears:<br />

Choose your language: 0 [English]<br />

Install Component [Baldur’s <strong>Gate</strong> Trilogy - Music]? choose one:<br />

0 1] Full Baldur’s <strong>Gate</strong> and Tales of <strong>the</strong> Sword Coast Music<br />

1 2] Hybrid Baldur’s <strong>Gate</strong>/Shadows of Amn/Throne of Bhaal Music<br />

2 3] Full <strong>Baldur's</strong> <strong>Gate</strong>/Shadows of Amn/Throne of Bhaal Music (WARNING: patches<br />

BGMain.exe) [3]<br />

Some NPCs connect new music not like o<strong>the</strong>r mods with <strong>the</strong> dialogs or o<strong>the</strong>r events, but add<br />

<strong>the</strong>m to a songlist. Into <strong>the</strong> unpatched songlist only 99 entries may be carried out all toge<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

Hence, up to now all lines from line 100 had to be deleted after <strong>the</strong> <strong>installation</strong> because, o<strong>the</strong>rwise,<br />

<strong>the</strong> game could not start.<br />

This patch removes this limitation. Also it writes all BG1 music into <strong>the</strong> songlist.<br />
