Got it working now. :D

A few little differences from Neil's guide: I chose to update BiG World when I ran it, then let it run through the "Recommended" installation.

At the end, I didn't run Setup-ToBEx. Instead, just installed the Widescreen mod, then launched the TobEx Launcher. All works fine from there!

The Tobex Launcher works on it's own if you installed the recommended however if you followed my instructions it would need to be installed manually. Whatever way you do it my guide has less problems later on in the game.

But if you got working , well done :D

Hmm...left running overnight and no progress.

I have both BG and BGII in their default folders moved from C:\Program Files\ to C:\

Did you install them into the default folders then moved them after? or am i just confusing your post :p. If so , the reg settings will still point to the program files if you didn't do that ignore what i just said :D

Does anyone have any tips for playing these, as I'm only making my way to Beregost in BG1 at the moment, and getting a serious pasting in most fights.

Is there any way to raise dead/defeated party members, or is it a case of when they're gone, they're gone?

I find it very difficult to tell the damage I'm doing to enemies, and I've been making liberal use of the space bar but don't seem to be able to improve things at all - aggro balancing for example.

Temples - raise dead , when you are a very high level you can spellcast raise dead!
 
Basically you have to install the GOG BG1 into

C:\BG\Baldur's Gate

Then GOG BG2 into

C:\BG\BGII - SoA

In other words no GOG and no program files, custom install them through the gog installer to those directories, also they don't need to be patched (GOG).

If you use some wild folder or even gogs own folder it can cause issues.. I haven't got BG1 or BG2 installed anymore as my guide was from when i installed it, i'm sure other people can help you more though :D
 
Careful when adding other mods as most are German and can cause script errors in an english version. Such as you going into an inn seeing an important character then he talks german then it crashes ;)
