Solving your problems for you

This submitted when I was halfway through for some reason--then when I was editing it signed me out. Don't know why, don't care, but since it went up before the solution was in I feel like I should add something. Definitely not an apology since I ddin't submit but was signed out, both for no ...

To yield you block AND interact-whatever you do to open a containter, door, talk, etc (SPACE on PC and A I think on 360)


The load screens tell you things like that, if you can recondition yourself to not ignore them.

If you're playing on a 360 the problem is probably your vidstick. If you're playing on a PC-which I highly doubt-the problem is probably your keyboard.

Alchemy Perks

I can't include what this mod changes without a VERY minor *SPOILER*, but I can say that this mod restores one of the developers' original concepts for alchemy perks.

One of the developers' original concepts for alchemy perks (deja vu!) allowed a greater number of simultaneous ...

FYI-here's a news release today about the add-on HD-DVD for the 360.

You might notice that the source is a bit more reliable than your typical tech-head rumor site.

The order that you equip items can affect how their effects function. The Baldurdash readme doesn't list 'correcting' the Boots/Ring interaction since the Ring should block the increased movement granted by the Boots, though other mods (Ease of Use and Improved Items the most prevalent) tweak item ...

I'd guess you aren't playing a fighter-in which case you might notice that the three with much lower THACOs are all fighters of some sort and the three with higher THACOs aren't. Fighter classes get a bonus to THACO every other level (I'm guessing here), more frequently than every other class ...

Anyone else get Doom3 for both PC and Xbox? The PC version was about twice the size of the Xbox version. Oblivion might be the same-so not only might you have reduced content due to a lack of mods, but you also could have a smaller game out of the box.

PnP had no restriction on druid/mages in 2nd edition. Since BG2 is based on 2nd I assumed that this would be something they'd keep.

2nd edition and BG2 both have race restrictions on multiclass combinations, but dual class doesn't have these (in 2nd Ed., should be the same in BG2) so any available ...

Since my favorite thing about the NPCs is their conflicts (as opposed to having everyone getting along) the romances were never that big a thing to me, however:

There's nothing in the English manual about a multi-class druid/mage. Are you in Belgium, and is your manual in English? If it's a translation then it's a bad translation and someone screwed up.

you could probalby still Dual class a druid/mage though I don't know why you'd want to.
