    I recently installed this on my new game and I think one of the things I installed was something that removes the helmet animations but I now realise I want this! What do I delete so that I can see those shiny helms on my tiny little characters?

    Run the exe again. You should get the option to uninstall it

    Oh thanks that was pretty easy! One more thing though, when I uninstalled that particular component, it began going through everything and looked to be installing everything again, but all I did was press quit ...

    Also, do you know in exactly which section is the part which installs/unistalls the Icewind Dale casting graphics?

    Ease of Use has been superseded by the G3 BG2 Tweak Pack. IWD casting graphics is in the G3 pack, and has not ever been in Ease of Use (as far as I know, because I coded the component).

    The reason for reinstalling intermediate components is WeiDU preserves your mod install order, to stop your game breaking.

    :lol: OOPS that's kinda what I meant!!! G3!

    So I'll state my problem again!

    I would like to un-install the 'no helmet animations' and the 'icewind dale spell effects' part of that mod.

    Although when I run the exe file and un-install a part of it, it removes it properly, but when i quit the whole thing, it begins going through everything, as though it is RE-installing it and I don't want that :(

    What should I do???

    It is normal, when you uninstall a component from a mod, Weidu first uninstalls all other mods installed prior to the mod you just wanted to uninstall, and then re-installs them at the end, so do not panic, or quit, just wait patiently. It is the way it works.

    Just uninstall the no helmet animations component, and IWD casting graphics one, (though I think IWD graphics are way cooler so I do not advice uninstalling it!) then wait patiently.

    Oh that's ok then! Nah I only like the big yellow one, I don't know what school it is but that's the only one I like, BG has better ones :D

    Does anyone know which section these two things are in because there's like a million sections and it takes AGES to manually search ...

    You do not have to do manual-search. Just run the G3 tweaks exe, and it will ask you what to do with components that are already installed. Say (A)sk about each one. It will then say all components you have installed. Choose the ones you want to (u)ninstall, and then just wait till it finishes.

    BTW, big yellow one is necromancy, it is cool, I like Alteration and Evocation animations of IWD too! BG ones look so similar.

    OMG! They were actually the in the first 5 options!!! Hehe thanks Silver! If it weren't for you I would've been debating how to do the whole thing without actually waiting to find each component :p

    No problem, glad to be of help. I was really pissed off too at first, when Weidu uninstalled and re-installed all my mods when I just ditched a single component. OMG it lasted for half an hour. :p
