tp2 file.) In most cases, you do not need a Mac-specific version of a mod you can download the Windows version, throw away the "setup-.exe" file, and just copy the mod folder to your game directory. in these rare cases, you need both the folder and the. tp2 file.) When you download a mod archive, after unzipping it you can ignore and throw away everything except the mod folder itself. (This is the folder that contains the mod's. You don't need anything except each mod's mod folder. You don't need to copy in multiple copies of Weidu. Each one will work with the mods in its respective game folder.ģ) No cruft and bloat in your game folder. You can make duplicate copies of the MWL and put one in each game folder - one for BGEE, one for BG2EE, one for IWDEE, etc.

These mods may have to be installed somewhere in the beginning or middle of your install order so these are mods you will need to pay more attention to, by reading their Readme files and maybe checking out their associated forum threads. Any mods it is not aware of appear at the end of the list, separated by dashed lines. This should take some of the stress out of installing mods manually. The MWL auto-sorts any mods it knows into a suggested install order.
If you ever want to uninstall system, follow this same procedure, but when a mod's Terminal window opens, tell it to uninstall rather than install. Rinse and repeat, until all of your mods are installed. Double-click the next mod, and that one will be installed. Run the MWL again it will show you the list again. When it is finished, the Terminal window will close. Double-click the first one, and its installation will begin in a Terminal window. When you run the MWL from your game folder, it automatically finds all of the mods you have there, arranges them into what I think is a good installation order, and the presents you with the list. This app will use whatever version it finds there, only copying it its own bundled version if there is none.Ģ) You don't need to type in any commands.

If this app ever starts to lag behind the Weidu releases - if I am not around to update it, and nobody takes up the cause - you can do it the old-fashioned way: grab Weidu, drop it in your game folder. See how that works? So you can pretty easily see what you are getting or whether it needs to be updated. The current version of the MWL is v7.1.247. As of this writing, the latest version of Weidu is v246 v247. This app contains the latest version of Weidu within it, you don't need to find it yourself. This little app makes it much simpler, in a number of ways.ġ) You don't need Weidu. Installing Weidu mods on a Mac is annoying - you have to download the right version of Weidu, put it in your game folder, open Terminal, navigate to your game folder (that part is always a pain in the neck), then type in the text command to run Weidu and start installing the mod.
