    Mb I figured it out I copied "space" without noticing I did everything as you said in the guide but my game keeps crashing even tho i opened it once before I did all of this ig I'll have to do it all over again maybe I messed up somewhere

    @MasonMA00 yeah I noticed you missed a bit of what I said.

    My advice is follow the EET guide ontop on the first page, as that allows you to mod directly in the obb.

    Maybe I'll do one, but not now as I want to get a new phone first in a few months.

    Btw what is your issue specifically atm when installing on android?

    Anyway here's the EET Guide, was gonna wait till later but I feel this might be a as good time as any.

    Firstly You're gonna need to download DlcMerger then also Algerios EET Fork .

    Extract the OBB of SOD as such

    And rename the chitin.key to mod.key

    Then zip the contents of the Sod File (with no compression) and title the zip sod-dlc.zip.

    Then extract BGEE into it's own folder and move the sod-dlc.zip into the folder.

    Also put DLCmerger into the same folder, then enter termux and type weinstall DlcMerger.

    Press 1 to Merge "Siege of Dragonspere" DLC

    Now there are certain Mods which can't be installed once you link BGEESOD to BG2EE with EET , but have to be install before EET (eg. Unfinished Buissness BG1) so check this list for those mods if there's any you wish to install.

    So you might want to check this list for them to see if your mod requires that.
    https://k4thos.github.io/EET-Compatibility-List/EET-Compatibility-List.html

    Then once you're done with that,extract the BG2EE OBB in a folder of it's own and extract the EET Fork into that folder as well.

    Then change directory in Termux to the BG2EE folder and type weinstall EET.

    It will then ask you for the path of the BGEE file , which you will then input.

    Next install Lefruet's UI Mod as this will allow you to swith between Campaigns.
    https://github.com/r-e-d/LeUI

    Install whatever else Mods you want to Install, then run weinstall EET_end

    And you're done installing EET.

    Though make to change names of the original BG2EE files to this (Only after having opened the game once normally):

    Then just copy the contents of the modded BG2EE as such

    Into the main OBB folder.

    And you should be done.

    Note
    The pros of Modding like this is that besides the obvious benefits of EET , you don't have to do centralfix for lang and can copy any mod you make on your phone/laptop, directly into the OBB folder.

    Thanks for this Guide! Question: Do i say No to the Install Desktop Shortcut at the End of EET install?

    @Hokkaido you can say yes or no, it doesn't matter.

    If you try to run the Android BG files in PC it will give you black area files (the sprites will shows up thought), since Android is encoded in ETC1/2 and PC is encoded in DTX1 & DTX5 (theoretically you should beable to convert the entire game on PC into ETC1/2 but I want to get a new phone before testing that for the hell of it).

    But ignoring the rambling I just gave, it doesn't matter.

    @Hokkaido oof, I'm not sure, I've never had language issues to deal with since I speak english.

    Isn't there like a setting in the menu to change languages, since all available languages are in the lang file, so you're supposed to change the language ingame.

    @Hokkaido I'm not really in a position to check this right now (just finished lifting,, weights was just replying between sets), so I think the best place to find answers on this is the Gibberlings3 forums.

    There you can ask modders directly about language files in the game, especially considering many of the modders there worked on the development of the games themselves and I see constantly adding translation submissions for mods.

    @Hokkaido I opened a thread for you here on Gibberlings3, some modders replied but they are saying they need more information (probably the weidu.log) which I obviously can't give, since it's not my installs.

    Just comment in and explain it's your issue, giving the necessary details and see what they say.

    Need some help, please. There are missing files everytime i try to install a mod (ScS and bg1npc), already tried to delete and reinstall everything :(
  • DraikenWeAreDraikenWeAre Member Posts: 219
    @ivainoider I'll need to see your weidu.log, this is an issue with he mods themselves, or something missing, so deleting everything won't help.

    In the first screenshot, it's most likely something missing from the override, maybe a previous mod removed it from the folder.

    As for your second screenshot, it will be due to the language file of the mod you want to install.
