bg1 import question

[phordicus]

Has anyone figured out if anything other than what's in the CHR itself is available in the save import? Aren't all the BG1 variables in the save as well? Would it be possible to import those variables to be used in BG2?

 

Saved the nymph and killed Ramazith? Ram's brother tracks you down.

 

Things like that. Would open up a zillion new quest opportunities.

and romance options.

 

I don't think variables get carried over. Otherwise it would probably have been used allready.

 

But it's a good question.

If you wish to make a mod that uses those variables, make the mod for BGT and they are available for you without an import, as they are within the same game. Easy.

well, of course. i'm not ashamed to say it, but i'd rather hand edit a save file than have to play BG again. it was groundbreaking and remarkable but i don't miss it at all. even in pnp, open world campaigns are a PitA to balance and BG forces me to metagame too much to maintain a balance between challenge and boredom.

some variables are stored in the actor, yes, see the chr description. I don't remember what used it though and for what.
