I've updated some of the links temporarily for just the original and tutu versions with the fix to the mage script. I'll try to get Solaufein to upload it later to the server in the proper section.
Mage9 script is overkill in my opinion. DS did try to make these encounters harder but the script could be done better. Dire Charm would be a better option. I'll try to get it sorted over the weekend.
I think the best bet is to convert the latest BGEE version so it works with the original BG and Tutu as well. This will take some time to complete but the BGEE version is more up to date and doesn't have those issues you mention. It also needs doing really to avoid confustion etc. One version for all three.
Compatibility: I have tested DSotSC with Dark Horizons, NTotSC and The Stone of Askavar in different installs without any issues. This version is currently not compatible with the World Map mod.
I'm not sure what's causing the levelling issues. Most of the NPC's will still have the same stats from the original mod so will most likely seem overpowered. In the original version additional scripts were created that you could choose in addition to those offered by BG1. These were designed to work with any new spells and provide better interaction, but like yourself in some cases I have found the lack of control annoying. You should be able to change them through the options screen somehow to ones that are more suitable. I haven't had the chance to take a look at the vanilla version for a while, in fact I'm surprised anyone is still playing it. I'll have to dust off my old PC to get it installed again.
To avoid confusion if you wish to play DSotSC without BGEE then version 1.06 is the most recent version. This version works with the original game as well as Tutu. You can download it here DSotSC v1.06
Yes I agree the force spell script sucks but it is part of the original mod so I won't be changing it unless someone comes up with a better one. I'll only mess it up if I change it.
I think the crash is an animation problem. Most likely the wrong filename for the summoning or an obsolete creature file. I will put it on the list of things to fix.
NPC characters need their level characters reviewing. Bub is at level six when you meet him in chapter 1. Mulahey's Cyric symbol needs redoing to new format Sparks spell doesn't seem to work right Icebolt bam needs tiding up for the spell book
