I would suggest you install the latest unofficial patch before you install the mod files. Since you're playing 1024x768, the black inventory screen suggests that, you need a couple of files from the patch.

If these are the only changes you made you should be able to continue the game. But keep in mind that if you install the latest unofficial patch a new game is required. It's because of some changes in the source code and that might cause issues.

The Blue Sun Mod v 1.0 will be release in a few weeks, I'm not sure exactly when since i have a lot of stuff at work as well. Hopefully it will be ready in early March, but I can't give an exact date

will I have to start a new gamer when 1.0 comes out?

Not sure about this yet. So far I have only made a few minor changes to the code, but there might be more. But my best guess at this stage is that a new game will be required.

The OP has links to the latest version, but if you're as lazy as I, here's a direct linky:

To minimize the chances of CTD's you should restart the game every hour or so. If you play the game for more than 2 hours straight the game becomes sluggish and causes random CTD's. If you do that you might be able to play through the game without a single CTD.

Have fun and don't forget to save often
