Special Note for Siege of Dragonspear from Steam/GOG
Good Old Games (GOG) and Steam both package the additional content for Siege of Dragonspear in a method that WeiDU, the tool used to install this mod, cannot access. You must run a program called DLC Merger on your SoD installation before you can install this or any other WeiDU-based mod.

Cosmetic Changes Fix Boo's Squeak
BGEE, BG2EE, EET, BG, BG2, BGT, Tutu

When you click on Boo in Minsc's inventory you're treated to a terrible, sped-up sound of someone saying 'squeak'. This component replaces this awful noise with an actual Boo squeak pared from one of Minsc's sound files.

Remove "+x" From Unique Item Names
+ BGEE, BG2EE, EET

+

The Enhanced Editions change the name of a number of items to match their given, unique name from their description, e.g. the "Bastard Sword +1,+3 vs. Shapeshifters" was changed to "Kondar +1". However, the +1 that was added to the names has always bothered me: "Kondar +1" implies, to me at least, the existence of "Kondar +2" or other Kondars. This component simply removes the "+x" from uniquely named items, turning "Kondar +1" into "Kondar". Note that this will not affect items with actual variations: "Carsomyr +5" will not be renamed because it can be upgraded to "Carsomyr +6".

Make Magic Shields Glow [plainab/grogerson]
All games except PsT, PsTEE

For those who don't like that magic shields either mimic the primary color of the wielder or are a dull wood brown, this little component changes the magic shields so their panels now glow with their protective enchantments.

Alter Druid Spell and Level Progression Tables
All games except IWD2

This component is actually the combination and streamlining of three different components: PnP Spell Progression Tables;, Un-Nerfed THAC0 Table, Saving Throws, Grand-Mastery, and Arcane, Divine Spell Progression; and Druids Use Cleric Level and Spell Progression. These are now combined and made more granular so that the player can select exactly which level and spell progression tables they wish to use. A comparison of the spell progression tables is available.

+

Alter Wisdom-Based Divine Bonus Spell Table
+ All games except IWD2

+

Higher wisdom scores provide bonus spells for divine casters such as clerics or druids. This component allows the player to pick between two options: a table faithful to PnP (and used in PsT) or the current table used in all of the other games. A comparison of the tables is available.

Allow Monks to Wear Helmets
BG2(EE), BGT, EET, Tutu, IWDEE, BGEE

-

One of the issues with monks, especially for players on the harder difficulties, is that they have no way to receive critical hit protection. Any helmet that's usable by clerics and fighters will be made available to monks to provide some degree of protection. Since monks have a serious animation glitch when wearing helmets, it will also change their base animation to be a cleric unless the Remove Helmet Animations component is also installed.

Thieves Can Backstab With More Weapons With "Use Any Item"
+ BG2EE,EET

+

A thief's ability to use a weapon for backstabbing is tied to whether or not a single-class thief can use an item. This means that even after a thief gains access to the High Level Ability Use Any Item (UAI), they are still unable to use some weapons for backstabbing even though they should otherwise be allowed. For example thieves can use ninja-tōs to backstab, but can't backstab with the Ninjatō of the Scarlet Brotherhood even though they can use it with UAI. Using new functionality in the EEs, this component keeps the current restrictions (a thief can't use the Ninjatō of the Scarlet Brotherhood until they get UAI), but once they can use it, it can be used for backstabbing.

+

Note that this makes the Staff of the Magi (SotM) available for backstabbing. To prevent abusing the SotM's invisbility-on-equip for multiple backstabs, one additional change is made to the item: a successful melee attack (including backstabbing) will prevent the wielder from re-entering invisibility until a round has passed.

+

Restore IWD Tooltips
+ IWDEE

+

This component replaces the existing, explicit IWDEE creature tooltips (typically the proper name of an NPC) with the more ambiguous tooltips that were used in the original (typically a physical description). For example, Arundel used the tooltip "Old Man" in the original IWD instead of the explicit "Arundel" that he uses in IWDEE. Some other examples are available in the Tweaks gallery.

  • Updated Russian translation, courtesy of yota13 and arcanecoast.ru
    • +
  • Fixed an issue with text encoding, which could cause messed-up characters to appear for non-English players
    • +
  • Remove Helmet Animations now remove helmet animations in a substantially cleaner fashion on EE games. This was also used for Allow Monks to Wear Helmets so that human monk animations can still be used whether or not Remove Helmet Animations is installed (on the EEs, at least)
    • +
  • Addressed minor incompatibility between Remove Racial Restrictions for Single Classes and The Artisan's Kitpack, in that the former would overwrite the custom half-orc monk paperdoll from the latter
    • +
  • The Universal Clubs component was looking along the wrong path for translation files, meaning most clubs did not get their descriptions properly updated
    • +
  • Increase Party Movement Speed and/or Casting Speed Outside of Combat [argent77] should have better detection for pseudo-party members such as familiars or 'companion' NPCs
    • +
  • Fixed bad shadows on the new icons for the Magma Bulwark and the Ring of Human Influence as part of Unique Icons [Lava]
    • +
  • Unique Icons [Lava] now has the option to override existing, unique icons or to preserve them
    • +
  • Fixed a bug with the Friendly Random Drops component, specifically, the Choose your drop variant. The handful of random items that were actually wielded by enemies were being swapped, but done in such a way that the enemy was not dropping a token and also attacking barehanded.
    • +
  • Send BioWare NPCs to an Inn was still allowing Neera and Rasaad to depart as normal
    • +
  • NPCs Don't Fight will now prevent having to choose between Rasaad and Viconia in Rasaad's Throne of Bhaal quest
    • +
  • Adjust Cromwell's Forging Time was adjusting the time correctly on EE games, but it would default back to the original time if the forging cutscene was skipped by the player

Version 14 - April 5, 2022

  • Just an embarassingly dumb copy-paste meant that Unique Icons [Lava] was not doing anything on BG/BG2 games.

Version 13 - April 4, 2022
