About This File

The BG2 Fixpack is a WeiDU compilation of fixes for Baldur's Gate II. This collaborative effort, including the work of modders from several different modding communities, has been the definitive compilation of fixes to supplement the official patches since its initial relase in 2006 and includes all of the fixes addressed by previous efforts such as Baldurdash (including the Game Text Update) plus several hundred more.


What's New in Version v10   See changelog

Released

  • Version 10 was put together with the hard work of aVENGER and Wisp and is a major update
  • Added Chinese (traditional and simplified) translation, thanks good0593!
  • Game Text Update: GTU Light has been updated with the latest from Wisp
  • The Super Happy Fun Lucky Modder Pack was deprecated due to a lack of interest. Modders who are interested in using anything from it can find the contents in the library modder.tpa in the lib folder.
  • Fixed a bug with the Optional But Cool: Cromwell's Forging Actually Takes a Day component not playing nice with others
  • Fixed a bug with Optional But Cool: Bard Song Fixes where the blade and regular bard songs were swapped
  • Optional But Cool: Improved Spell Animations now changes Errard's divination spell to use a divination casting graphic
  • Optional But Cool: Mixed-Use Dagger Fixes no longer changes Firetooth's damage
  • Fixed a bug that prevented BETA Core Fixes from installing without ToB
  • Documentation was completely reworked, with an eye to making the changes more understandable to players: Players no longer have to wade through all tedious file names and notes for modders (these are still available for modders, though)
  • Core Fixes and BETA Core Fixes have been combined into a single document
  • Overall efforts have been made to make the descriptions a lot more player-friendly
  • Wherever possible, bugfixes have been consolidated for brevity and concision, even though this means the loss of such great fix titles as You Can't Hope to Stop Habib, You Can Only Hope to Contain Him
  • The BG2 Fixpack Gallery has been restored so players can see some of the visual fixes
  • Fixes from v9 were never documented
  • The following changes were made to the Core Fixes component: Several fixes had been lingering, some for years, in the Core Fixes BETA component and have finally been promoted into the Core Fixes
  • The range and magic resistance fixes for Detect Evil were erroneously changing Moon Dog Sight to affect party-only
  • Elven and Half-Elven Resistance to Sleep and Charm was being a little too generous with its protection, i.e. it no longer protects against psionics
  • The secondary spells created in Blade Spin Fixes no longer create spurious messages in the feedback window
  • Closed an exploit that allowed the player to bypass most of the City of Caverns plot
  • The Incorrect Lines in Dialogues no longer destructively patches player1.dlg and instead plays nicely with others
  • Getting Gaal to take the rift part as part of the Unseeing Eye XP Exploit, Quest Breakage fix was causing additional issues and was rolled back
  • Duplicate Stores was not actually accounting for all duplicate gem bags
  • Clearing out Flydian after Trademeet was saved was inexplicably causing crashes on SoA-only games
  • The Brynnlaw Vampire Attack May Prevent Quest From Advancing fix was causing some issues with Saemon and has been revised
  • Dialogues looking for Faldorn's death variable are corrected
  • The Staff of the Magi Errors fix was removing the Protection from Evil icon in the course of its repairs
  • The Azuredge Axe Corrupted, Other Errors fix was redone to really, really fix it this time, honest

  • English sounds were being restored in non-English games

  • Luck no longer stacks and now provides thieving and save bonuses
  • The string fix for Teleport Field saves is actually correct now
  • Immunities Don't Suppress All Effects was adjusted to handle poison damage; specifically most disease damage is done through poison damage so an effort was made to provide disease immunity without also granting complete poison immunity. Charm immunity now suppresses the 'Dominated' string.
