THE GREY CLAN EPISODE ONE: IN CANDLELIGHT
Technical Manual – BG1Tutu Edition, v1.11

Requirements, Levels of Compatibility

The installation package of this mod is WeiDU-based. (In common parlance: "This is a WeiDU mod.")

Requirements:

1. A working installation of BG1Tutu or EasyTutu (Tales of the Sword Coast is required. Note: Original Saga includes it.) EasyTutu is recommended. You don't have to start a new game if certain conditions are met. Please read this.
2. The availability of all, directly or indirectly required original game resources is assumed.
3. The basic functionality of all, directly or indirectly required game resources is assumed as unmodified.

Notes to requirements:
2 . The game installation does not have to be unmodified, but removed or renamed resources that are normally present in the original game may cause incorrect mod behaviour and errors. (Example: this edition of the mod does not work with original Baldur's Gate/TotSC or BG Trilogy, and may not work with any total or partial game conversions.)
3 . The game installation does not have to be unmodified, but the basic functionality of resources is required. (Example: replaced original travel regions that lead to different areas than in the original game may cause incorrect mod behaviour and errors.)
