Running mods with an old edition

Hi, I decided to reinstall my ancient copy of NWN. I installed it with shadows of undrentide which I never actually played. I looked up which mods are considered amongst the best and have downloaded Aeilund Saga, however when selecting it from the modules it says “Could not open file because it was created using a newer version of the toolset and/or game resources”. I’m using the recommended mods on NWN vault, are there any mods which should bypass this issue?

    Aielund Saga was updated to Enhanced Edition, which is the version you require.

    On the Vault, the module description should tell you whether EE is required, otherwise it should run on your old version.

    Some games are classified as NWN EE rather than NWN1 - a bad category that should have been deprecated but isn't -in which case EE is required.

    Players quickly complain when EE is required but not stated, so the info is fairly reliable.
