As Topic! I have checked this Forum everyday and now it makes me sad to see no more activity! The last post is next to one month old and I am soooo curious about how things are proceeding about this great project!! Forgive me if I sound like I am stressing you all guys who are working on it. It's just that I am very excited about the Bg1QuestPack! I would love to have a pinned topic where the authors might drop a couple of lines mentioning the WIP and attaching a couple of images, maybe! Thanks and hugs!

Hi Salk,

I wish to second Jasteys thanks for your interest and give you a brief overview:

We have pretty much finished designing the new areas we will be adding with the Questpack. Greenest town is a small town / hamlet on the Greenfields (see the link to the map of the sword coast below) between Beregost and Berdusk (out beyond Durlags Tower) and there will also be a large Drow area somewhere in the game though i won't give too much away about that.

As i said the area design is pretty much complete and we are currently in the process of doing quests for both these areas and the existing areas in the game. Some quests will be simple quests much like the Marianne one in Beregost (that nets you a ring of protection) others will be longer plot driven quests. Both Black Elk and Apeman have joined as we move into this part of development.

We are hoping to bring more class specific quests and resolution of quests to the game also as this is something sadly lacking in BG1.

We will be trying to keep the quest rewards balanced with the current game so don't expect large numbers of drow chain etc to be available in fact if I have much say there won't be much more than one or maybe two +2 weapons added by the Questpack in total. The emphasis will be on gameplay rather than physical reward. We will also be keeping an eye on XP rewards which we can't let get too big or the party will rise too quickly in levels just by doing our additional quests.

If you have any other questions please continue to post them here and we will endeavour to answer them to the best of our ability.

Thanks again,

Rabain
