CamDawg Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 The BG2 Fixpack is a WeiDU compilation of fixes for Baldur's Gate II. With the disappearance of Kevin Dorner and the cessation of activity of the Baldurdash fixpack for BG2, several modders and myself began working on a new WeiDU fixpack to address the numerous bugs that have been identified since Baldurdash. This collaborative effort, including the work of modders from several different modding communities, has resulted in a fixpack that currently includes all of the fixes addressed by Baldurdash (including the Game Text Update) and several hundred new bugfixes. The project is ongoing, and we're working through a substantial list of bugs culled from various sites, the old Baldurdash forums, and our own research. Beta 3 includes a slew of new fixes as well as addressing miscellaneous issues found since the last release. Additional Script Fixes has been added as a new OBC component and Corrected Summoned Demon Behavior has been moved out of the core and into OBC.
