Modding GoG?

in General Modding
I read somewhere that the GoG version of BG1/2 is hard to install mods on...
Is that true?
I have the hardcopy version of both, but I want to use the newest patch (which I can't with the dvd) to avoid complication between updated mods and my 'outdated' version.
Wouldn't mind paying another 20€ for such a great game, so that is not an issue, unless the gog version doesn't work properly with mods.

Thank you^^

    No... the GOG version of BGEE and BG2EE are easy to mod.

    With BGEE+SOD you need to use a small application to make it easy to mod.
    Thels said:

    Yeah, so to summarize, if you:
    - Use Steam or GoG, AND
    - Have Siege of Dragonspear, AND
    - Want to install mods (or run other tools such as EEKeeper or NearInfinity)

    Then before you do anything, you run modmerge.

    You don't need to run modmerge, if you:
    - Use Beamdog, OR
    - Do not have Siege of Dragonspear, OR
    - Have no interests in mods or other tools



    Also have you considered buying your digital copies from here as they are 60% off (and 10% off for SOD) for the next 6 days.

    Already have the hardcopy of BG1 and 2 and am not interested in SoD, thank you ^^

    Good to know it's not problematic :)
    Dunno where I read that o.O
