A little lost with Big World installation

I have been trying to look for a step by step walkthrough of how to install the big world mod. I have looked at the instructions, and yet am uncertain whether I have to install the mods separately, then install Big World and use that to install them all at once. This wouldn't be a problem, but the extremely large size of it makes me hesitant to attempt an installation only to mess it up. Many thanks to anyone who could offer some guidance.

    What exactly is this Big World mod? I see a file at Spellhold Studios on how to install it, but I don't see any references to the mod itself or any sort of description. What does it do and where does it live?

    OK, I think I found a description of the mod, but unfortunately it's in German. So I'm still in the dark.

    Yah...I think I figured it out...but it just leads to more questions. You have to download all the mods you want, then compile them and BWP will install them. The problem is I have no idea what mods to use, when to unzip them, where to put them and in what order. This is frustrating, I may just stick with Baldurs Gate Trilogy for now.

    Everything you need to know about a BWP install.

    Download and unpack your mods per the instructions. The BW install pack will do the rest.

    Wait, where do the 50gbs come from? I feel like there's some big conglomeration of mods I'm missing. And thanks for the link.
