For those wondering how to get David Gaider's popular
Ascension mod to work with the
Enhanced Edition (EE) of Baldur's Gate II:
Manual installation
Don't use the old EXE from the mod's official homepage.
Instead, download and install the EE port of the mod released by the BiG World Project:
DIRECT DOWNLOAD LINK (Alternatively, get it from the
Github download page.)
Extract it, move the contents of the
BiGWorldProject-Ascension-* wrapper folder into your BG2:EE game folder, and install it like any other WeiuDU mod.
Installation with the BiG World Setup
The
Big World Setup (BWS) tool already uses this version of Ascension, so if you let BWS install your mods you're all set.
Credits
The EE port was created by @WhiteAgnus and @JediMindTrix, and then picked up by the BiG World Project where it received additional EE compatibility fixes by @ALIEN, @Quitch, @agb1, and @badungu.
For more info on the porting history and older versions, see the discussion
starting here.
(I myself wasn't involved in the making of the mod or the EE port – this is just an unofficial thread to inform other fans, because the BWP authors haven't created an official thread for it in this forum.)
