Reinstallation Save Game Question

Hi, forum newbie here with what's probably a basic question. I've been playing the GOG version of BG2 for weeks with no problem, but yesterday I had a BSOD error while playing. Since then, the game has been locking up whenever I try to enter certain locations (e.g., the Sea's Bounty, the barn next ...

That would also explain the lack of feat descriptions in game terms (many of them don't explain, for example, which skills they modify, or by how much), which is an absurd move whether done intentionally or as a matter of oversight by the design team. The only benefit of much of this game's design ...

The turn-based combat is well-enough done, except for the problem of turn-based limbo that I've noted in my other thread (I'm still stuck with that monster in the wall, so if anyone has any advice I'd greatly appreciate it!) But overall the whole thing just seems frankly uninspired to me. This seems ...

Yeah, but how do I get out of turn-based mode if I do that? It won't end! I even tried to walk to an exit, but I can't get out of the room in turn-based. So it seems like I'm stuck there with this monster in the wall and unable to go anywhere. Any ideas?

You can, unless you're trying to take away an item that a follower has looted from a corpse. They won't part with those, even if they become encumbered much more quickly.

Help! Monster in the wall!

So, I'm in the basement of the Moathouse and decided to take a rest before taking on those gnolls since I kept dying. Predictably, I was jumped by a group of guardsmen and dire rats. Nothing I can't handle, except for this little glich: one of the guardsmen seems to be positioned right in the middle ...

I would recommend playing a bit further into the game before posting a glowing review. I've found this game sorely lacking not only in the "trivial" game mechanics you mentioned but also in its ability to hold my interest as compared to BG2, or even Arcanum. There seem to be virtually no roleplaying ...

The incompetent instruction manual doesn't make this easy to figure out, but it's hidden away in the somewhat more helpful in-game help meu. To use spontaneous casting, go into your casting menu to the level of the healing spell you want to cast, then hold down shift and click the spell you want to ...
