Is it possible to remove the experience cap in BG?? If so how?

Thanks!!

AHHH!!! Sorry to whoever reads this....just noticed that this topic has been posted on the next page. My apologies

I would also like to find an Exp Cap remover. I also have another question:
If you go over the 161,000 exp point level and then export your chharacter to SOA, will the character still start with 161,000 points?

Yes.

Technically, your character continues to accumulate experience no matter what. It just is stopped from applying at the 89000 or 161000 level. When you import in BG2-SoA, they apply the cap anew.

Now, remember that the game isn't complete for L5 spells (which is 10th level Mage & priest). but it still might be fun. Also, various encounters actually are more difficult if you over-level, because they used scaling code.

The scripting engine does not support any math whatsoever beyond simple comparisons. You cannot script something like "monster level = party level * 1.5", only "if party level > 7 then monster level = 12". I doubt that the designers took above-cap party levels into account while scaling.

Of course, you are correct.

But the type and number of monsters is not scripted, but controlled by code - which does have full control. This code is similar to the code used for animate dead - as you gain in levels, the undead you summon are tougher.

Specifically, I was warning, because the fight with Sarevok gets augmented by some Death Knights if you are overly high level. They also start close to the party.
