As the topic states, will any of the game mechanics be changed to go along with the new world.
The focus of the project is to craete a new world to play in. There are some modules in the works, and lot of maps to be made.
Thre are many tweak packs out there that alter the game mechanics, and there may be some module in the future which may utilize some of these. At this time there are no set changes to game mechanics planned, for compatability reasons.
There are plans for custom kits for the various races, however there are no additional modifications to the play of BG2 at this time.
Any futher changes to BG2 game play will not be considered until initial project is complete. the current project plan is an enormous undertaking, and I personally have roughly 50 maps to create prior to incorporation of any pre-existing infinity engine maps. any plans beyond this and a few started adventure modules would substancially delay the release of a functional modding environment.
