Hi, so i was wondering if there is a way to make 2 separate baldurs gate folders where one has mods, and the other is clean. i'm trying to do so, so that i can play multiplayer with other vanilla folks, and have another client to mix it up and add mods.

does anyone know how i would do this?

    Just make a copy of your 00766 folder and install your mods there. You can launch the modded game directly by running Baldur.exe.

    To update your modded game, first update your clean game and then make a new copy of the folder, install your mods (hopefully in the same order you installed them before, if you have an ongoing game), and then get rid of the outdated folder.

    Note: Both modded and clean games will still share the same save directory, so it's a good idea to name your saves clearly to avoid a mess.
