  BG2 Fixpack optionals, Ascension, UB, Reunion, Romance Packs (and maybe Skitia Romance Tweak, notsure on this one), All Things Mazzy (I meant it as last romance/quest/NPC mod), IWDification, Tweaks, SCS (these last two can be flipped here, but I prefer this order myself).

  Mod installation order is tricky. Here is the one I will use for my next playthrough:
  
  - Ascension # 40, Testing this since October 2023. Must come before wheels of prophecy.
  - BridgesBlock # 02
  - Tales_of_the_Deep_Gardens # 03
  - The_White_Queen # 04, should come after Tales of the Deep Garden.
  - The_Dreadful_Tales_In_Love_Undeath # 05
  - The_Dreadful_Tales_Juniper_and_the_Stone_Leech # 06
  - Innershade # 07
  - The_Sellswords # 08
  - Tower_of_Deception # 09
  - Skitia - NPCs # 10
  - Every_mod_and_dog # 11
  - Trials_of_the_Luremaster_mod # 12
  - Romantic_Encounters # 13
  - Back_to_Brynnlaw # 14
  - Assassinations # 15
  - Southern_Edge # 16
  - The_Ooze_Lounge # 17
  - Tangled_Oak_Isle # 18
  - lucy - the - wyvern # 19
  - navarra # 20
  - Eilistraee # 21
  - Fishing_for_Trouble # 22
  - GolemConstruction # 23
  - Reunion_mod # 24
  - Sirene - NPC # 25
  - Alabaster_Sands # 26
  - Tales_of_Anegh # 28, for chapter 6 and beyond
  - Ascalons - questpack # 29
  - Isra_NPC # 30
  - Ariena # 31, another NPC
  - The_journey_to_the_Whin_Hill # 32
  - Pai - Na - NPC - mod - for - BG2 - EE - 1.8a # 33, another NPC mod
  - willowisp # 34
  - Dusk_Aldant # 35, may be better to install it fairly late.
  - Drizzt - RoTerror - EE # 36
  - Skie_the_cost_of_one_girl - 5.2 # 37
  - Fade_v5.6 # 38
  - Wings - 1.05 # 39, wings mod for aerie
  - Unfinished_Business # 41; Should come late, but before cliffkey. Contains Artemis Entreri and the kidnapping of Boo.
  - Unofficial_Item_Pack # 44, a great mod.
  - Quest_Pack # 43 Should come after "Unfinished Business".
  - sod2bg2_iu - v2.0.6 # 42; should come late
  - ItemUpgrade # 47
  - Made_in_Heaven_mod # 45
  - Homeward_Bound # 46
  - heart_of_the_wood # 48, an item
  - forgotten - armament # 47
  - jans - alchemy # 47
  - Walahnan_BG2 - v1.00 # 48
  - saradas - magic - for - BG2 # 49, a new NPC
  - Mystigan # 51, a NPC
  - Check_the_Bodies # 52; also installs the Saerk Farrahd's banquet invitation. This one crashed the game in September 2023, so I moved this mod downwards.
  - I_Shall_Never_Forget # 54, by Lava, should come late as it adds new areas
  - wheels # 53, Wheels of Prophecy
  - Skip_Chateau_Irenicus # 50; should come late
  - Lhannd # 55, a NPC but it also installs new areas.
  - Tactics_Remix # 56
  - Tweaks_Anthology # 57; should come last
  - worldmap - mod - v12.0.0 # 58 or this should come last ...
  
  
  Not guaranteed that this will work, and some mods not on the list above I skipped,
  but it can be helpful for people totally new. Have a look at your own installation
  order; some of this is probably a good advice nonetheless such as worldmap mod
  being installed last, tactics remix being installed at a late time too and so forth. It
  depends on what mods you use. Some mods never cause issues, others do.

  (Ignore the number in the above next to the '#' comments. This is just me commenting
  and re-shuffling order. This is from a .yml file actually and I use it via ruby
  scripts to re-package things automatically to test it. Hopefully I will be
  able to replace weidu one day, because weidu keeps on annoying me
  to no ends. It was probably written back when dinosaur still roamed
  the lands ...)
