The G3 Community Item Pack

For aspiring modders, one of the things I always recommend as a first project is an item pack. It gives you a little bit of experience making items, creatures, stores, and some basic scripting and dialogue. As part of the Baldur’s Gate Community Creative Craziness Challenge, I did just this. As a tutorial live stream and collaborative project, creating items submitted by you.

Welcome to the G3 Community Item Pack, a WeiDU compilation of items submitted by players, and created (for the most part) live on stream to showcase how to make Infinity Engine mods. The items are intended for Baldur's Gate II, original or Enhanced Edition.

The G3 Community Item Pack has one component with two small variations. Multiple items in the mod can cast arcane spells; you can choose to have the items behave like scrolls in that they will summon the Cowled Wizards if used in Athkatla. In the second option, these items will not summon the Cowled Wizards. Note that when using the second option, other mods that change the behaviors of these spells may not necessarily be reflected in the spells when cast by these items. Most items are sold by a merchant, Gilbert Lington the Third, in Trademeet. A handful have been placed around the game for you to find. The following items have been added (items in italics are EE-only):

  • Dart of the Severing Mist
  • Akkabar's Battleblade
