Icewind Dale Tweaks v13 Released

[CamDawg]

This is a collection of tweaks that have been assembled for Icewind Dale. They were almost all made for BG2 by Idobek and CamDawg, and cannibalized by Andyr to work for Icewind Dale. It is a compilation of fixes, cosmetic changes, and tweaks. Some of these were fan requests, others are needed fixes, and others simply make dealing with the more irritating aspects of the game engine easier. Each component can be installed separately so the player can pick and choose only which ones they wish to install.

Some minor potential typos in description_updates.tra:

 

@202103:

You feel this club heavy but when you strike with it, it is precise and light as a leather.

->

This club feels heavy but when you strike with it, it is precise and light as a feather.

 

@202104, @202105, @202107, @202108

THACO -> THAC0

Thanks hook71, but that tra file is no longer used. It's for the deprecated description updates for universal clubs, but the descriptions are now updated on the fly. I'll delete the tra file for the next version.

 

v14 is in the works, mainly so I can include prowler's updated Russian translation. Two-handed bastard swords are back, P&P protection items is revamped to fix multiple issues with item charges, and heavy armor thieving will now provide the unarmored P&P bonuses for pickpocketing and stealth.

On description page the version of this mod not actual(12 instead of 13). Need fix.
