I've seen other topics which say that these are not able to be edited (or if so, it is very difficult), but...

Is it possible to import a paperdoll shield from BG1? I dislike the look of the new shields and would like to have one that looks like the old black/gold tower shield from BG1. In DLTCEP, I can only find one small shield with the old look, but it uses the same paperdoll effect as the BG2-style small shields.

If it's not possible, it's no big deal.

Thanks!

The PLT files for shields are fairly clearly defined. The BMP files are, too.
You could do the following:
1. Export the paperdoll for the shield from BG
2. Import it into BG2 with a new component code, after fixing placement on the paperdoll

This should do the job, paperdoll wise. The Avatar would not change, of course, unless you did the appropriate avatar export/import, complete with adding all the extra animations BG2 required.

Generally, Paperdoll is about 30-200x easier than Avatar.
