I'm just wondering if anyone has tried some of these things and how hard it was.
1) to make the equivalent of one of BIS's pregenerated parties selectable at the beginning of the game?
2) edited one of the races or completely swapped one out for another? i.e. swap out wild elves for wood elves and change the favored class to ranger and whatever stat changes there are.
Editing questions
I have not tried to change those aspects of the game yet. I am still working on figuring out how the new in game stuff works. All in all it is still the pretty easy to follow infinity engine. I have been able to create some new items and little stuff like that, but thats about all I have had time for. Given that fact that so much is known about the IE I do not think it will be long at all before you start seeing more userfriendly editors such as the ones teamBG has to offer for the other IE games. I could look for it, but I would assume that the pre-created parties are very easy to edit. Although, at this point I don't think I could edit a IWD2 .cre file. I would have to create a new char in game.
