From what I have gathered in this thread the essential mods are fixpack, widecreen and the cool/easy mods to download are GiG World Project. Anything else I should think about installing? Also, any good resources I should know about? Been a long time since I havepl ayed BG and thought about AD&D rules. Ascension and Weidu, Redemption, Unfinished Business, Tactics Mod (if you really want to challenge yourself), all the official ToB patches (and the semi-official as well - Gaider's boss enhancements make them soooo much fun!), Oversight mod, and whatever else catches your fancy. I've played all of these and they're soooooooooooo much fun!!!! <3 Look at this site for more details: http://www.pocketplane.net/modlist/ | ||

Either way, I'll take it. I've completed neither game. If the graphics are suitably enhanced and the gameplay bug free, I may actually finish this one! | ||

I believe Viconia was just a elf with dark skin and a magic resitance hard coded for her character only. | ||

All the mods I have found so far require WeiDU and I have no idea what that is. WeiDU is just the scripting app which applies patches and it comes packaged together with 99.9% of the mods AFAIK | ||

I mean the images so far look 100% the same than the original. I'm willing to bet the only improvement is ipad and mac version. | ||

They haven't indicated any new content that hasn't already been done by modders. It could just be mock-ups using screenshots from modded BG2, though. | ||

If it is just an "official" modded version of BG, really that's disapointing, especially if they try to sell it for 20-30$ lol. I mean lets be realistic, they announced it not long ago for a release this summer... and BG2 will follow closely. AND they are working on an ipad and mac versions. I can't see them putting much work in it that we already haven't seen. | ||

But they did say that these pictures on their website are not representative of how it will look at release. They said there will be changes to UI. | ||

They have announced that iPad version will be 10$ which I think is a pretty good deal! Even if PC version is slightly more expensive, that's still cheap IMO, even GOG has it for 10$. They also said they're looking into box releases (hope it's gonna be available in France if they do it  ) which could alter the price a bit. | ||

You should take a look at Trent Oster's Twitter ( https://fr.twitter.com/#!/TrentOster/status/187311670467629057 ), it's not only about adding mods, they are also including new areas, musics and characters. Honestly i dont even own the BG series just because i always borrowed it from my cousin, but if buying the BG 1&2 Enhanced Edition can give them the opportunity to make Baldur's Gate 3, then that's a really good deal. Worst case scenario i'll own two great games with extra content. | ||
