I don't like that a Cleric-Thief's Thievery button is always under the Special Abilities tab, as there's not enough room on the main screen.

I for one never use the "guard" function. Perhaps that can be moved to special abilites for the C/T. Aren't the buttons on the bars hard-coded, though?

Has anyone trie do to make a GUI for BG2 from the IWD:HOW files?
So far I've only seen Chevar's GUI and it is too colorful for my taste. And it uses elements from BG1 too. -------------------- Blessed be the one who has nothing to say, and yet remains silent.

I checked the forum and the dragon's hoard but it doesn't seem to be available for download.

Both of our (EGM and myself) GuI are very much the same; we both heavily use the IWDII theme. The only difference is that I have placed a few traces of the BG1 theme here and there (because I think they look good), while EGM didn't.
Unfortunately (for you), EGM sent me all of his files and we conversed to merge the two GuI projects, so his GuI work is in my hands right now. You could still try the TuTuGuI over at pocketplane, which I think it works even if you don't have TuTu installed. -Galactygon -------------------- |

I've seen it but I think I like the IWD gui better.
Why don't you put it for download somewhere? -------------------- Blessed be the one who has nothing to say, and yet remains silent.

I can't answer that, and I don't know.
