First you download all the mods automatically, which takes 3 to 5 hours depending on the speed of your connection. Then you hunt down all the mods that have changed while cursing the chinese and germans and french in equal measure, which takes a couple hours. Then you run the automatic batch file preparation program a few times to dispel all doubts, takes an hour. Then you click on the batch file and let it run all night. I've seen it take anywhere between 10 hours and 2 days to complete the batch file. Then you hope there's nothing game-breaking in the error log.

I really wish bioware would release their games as open source so people could simply release a compiled game itself rather than make you compile hundreds of mods.

I'm really torn between wanting to try this massive endeavor and curling up into a fetal coma before returning to my idiot-proof insert disc and play games. :gonk:

Ahahahahaha, I was testing something and started a new Shadows of Amn game, going through a ton of cutscenes. When I finally got control of my character and started wandering around Irenicus' dungeon, I discovered something horrible.

My friends, we're going to have to go into :siren: CODE RED FURRY ALERT :siren: when we get there. Irenicus really is a disgusting bastard.

... Uh. :stare:
