Yeah, third post tonight. I'm on a roll, lol! Anyway, I found over at Spellhold Studios two Irenicus mods for ToB: Longer Road and Redemption. Does anybody have positive or negative feedback on either of the mods? I'm presuming they don't work together. Still downloading my mods for BG2 so I'm not to the readme part yet. Just wondering if I could get some "hands on" feedback since readmes can only tell so much.

No, they won't work together. Between the two, I believe Longer Road is the better (if you are going to have him, why not have him for the whole journey?). He is powerful, very powerful. As I recall, he was higher level than the rest of the party and had a huge number of spells per day. Additionally, you may need to do the opening conversation with Ellesime more than once- it is possible to get it wrong and not gain access to Irenicus. However, despite the above, it really enjoyed the talks you get with him. There are quite a few in-depth conversations you can have.
I'm afraid I can't remember much more than that- it has been some time since I bothered going through ToB.

I tried The Longer Road sometime ago. It's obviously had a lot of hard work put into it as there's LOADS of dialogue. However, it screwed up my game quite early abd I had to reinstall. Maybe it's been cleaned up since I used it, I don't know, but there was shedloads of bugs. First time, Ellesime did not turn up so I was just stuck at the start of the game. Then it was one thing after another and I got fed up.
