7) Download the mods
8) Prepare installation, restart computer
9) From "BGII - SoA" remove these files:
saradas_magic_2
setup-saradas_magic_2
setup-saradas_magic_2.command
setup-saradas_magic_2.exe

saradas_magic
READ ME - Saradas Magic.txt
setup-saradas_magic.exe

or remove saradas magic files from "Big World Downloads" folder
also delete SR-revisited-master.zip if you don't want Spell Revisions
and "spell_rev-v4-beta18.exe"

IMPORTANT!
SCS mod arrogantly disables double damage from Insane difficulty by default,
to restore it, go to BGII - SoA\stratagems\stratagems.ini and set "enable_difficulty_based_damage_changes = 1" BEFORE proceeding with installation, there is sadly no option to restore double damage after the installation on the originals.

then go to BGII - SoA\ascension\ascension.ini

Ascension mod arrogantly disables double damage from Insane difficulty by default,
to restore it, go to BGII - SoA\ascension\ascension.ini and set "enable_difficulty_based_damage_changes=1" BEFORE proceeding with installation, there is sadly no option to restore double damage after the installation on the originals.
