I ran into a very annoying problem the night before last. Started the shadelord battle and was amazed that he fired so many spells right off the bat, don't have the exact number but it was alot.
What this did other than destroying my party was slow my computer down to a crawl. The characters that were not slowed from his slow spell could still hardly move and could not make it from the door before getting killed. The question, are there specific settings that I can alter that will make this a less computer intensive fight? This is the first enhanced encounter that has done this and might be as bad as it is because the battle scene is in the dark and I think that maps like this are more difficult and computer intensive. Just my opinion. Romulas |

Oh no. I checked my Widu log file and it seems I have 'bottomless containers' installed.
 Sikret, you say that this will really slow down my game, and this is the last thing I want. I still did not have time to start a BG2 game, but am about to finish BG1 so I can start a few weeks later, hopefully. I plan to play IA excessively and uninterrupted this summer.  So, that component is also one of the first installed in my long mod-list. What should I do?  If I really don't put too many stuff in my containers, will they still slow down my games? I used to have HUNDREDS  of all kinds of potions in my bags in my last games and it got real slow sometimes. This time, if I don't abuse it, will it still slow down?  So do I really have to uninstall that component? But it will be really painful as Weidu will uninstall and reinstall all my serious mods and I am afraid it can cause 'some' problems. No way! I want my all-new IA run to be as smooth as possible! (I had to abandon a previous game of IA in the middle of it, no thanks to a nasty bug which prevented me from lvling up my fighters.  It had nothing to do with IA though, it was my guilt for having too many mods.) What can I do to make the proccess as bugless as possible? Any help would be appreciated.
