Heya all,

Just a warning if you happen to play on steam. Beamdog just launched a new update for BG2 EE, and there is no way to prevent steam from updating it, unless you go to properties>update and choose "only update the game when I launch it" and disable your internet connection while playing...

I'm so pissed you can't properly prevent updates...

Is there any solution to fix that, as in making IA viable with BG2 EE 2.6 simply ? Dunno what it takes.


Edit : Nevermind, I was just stopping not to make a shortcut to avoid steam-shit to launch anytime I play. Careful with their auto-update if you do though

I strongly suspect that IA already reverts many of these changes due to a simple fact that a lot of changes in IA are made the "old school" way by overwriting resources completely instead of patching them programmatically with more modern implementations of weidu.
