The BG2 Fixpack is a WeiDU compilation of fixes for Baldur's Gate II. We'd especially like to thank Bioware's David Gaider for his assistance in this release, clarifying several issues as to developer intent. With the disappearance of Kevin Dorner and the cessation of activity of the Baldurdash fixpack for BG2, several modders from many modding communities began working on a new WeiDU fixpack to address the numerous bugs that have been identified since Baldurdash. This collaborative effort, including the work of modders from several different modding communities, has resulted in a fixpack that currently includes all of the fixes addressed by Baldurdash (including the Game Text Update) and several hundred new bugfixes. The project is ongoing, and we're working through a substantial list of bugs culled from various sites, the old Baldurdash forums, and our own research. This release adds a new Italian translation (courtesy of Andrea C.), addresses the errors from the last release, expands existing fixes, and includes two new optional-but-cool components. Several new fixes have been added to the BETA Core Fixes component.

Relevant links:All of the documentation pages have been updated with new information for v3. Changes for v3:
  • Added Italian translation (thanks Andrea C.)
