Winter's Valley-Chapter 1
Power Shift

It’s been 200 Winters since the Darkening.

Winter is merciless. Every year, She rains shards of sharpened ice rain from the sky, demanding blood from those without shelter as though a supplication to the gods. Winter banishes the sun, forbidding it to temper Her blistering ice. She hides the sun’s warmth with a veil of thick, breathless dust that chokes and grays out the landscape. Her fury is still but deadly.

Man knows little of how this world came to be. Some say that Winter has always hated him and has forever sought to smother him in Her blighted grip. Others say Winter murdered the gods and placed Herself above man as his new master. Still, others say that man angered the gods and they abandoned him to his well-deserved fate as Winter’s prey. Even more curious and unbelievable legends are spoken of in whispers. Such whispers are the mere pitiful whines of man to understand what has turned him into the skittish, desperate cry from the greatness that once was his.

For the shadows of his previous life do mar the valley. Ancient, enchanted ruins, adorned with the echoes of times past, serve as homes for Winter’s wicked servants. Her minions seek to steal the hard-earned resources accrued by man during his summer reprieve. They are enemies to all. Winter has infested certain men with her hunger, pitting him against rebuilding, against peace, against himself. Those men seek to take what they did not earn during summer. They are hardened, and thirsty for blood and bread.

Can anyone clarify how exactly weapon proficiencies work when dual classing from and to fighter classes?

If I dual class from a fighter to say a thief, can the thief put more than one pip into a weapon? Am I limited to specialization like multiclass fighters or can I go to grand mastery? Also do I need to wait for the fighter abilities to reactivate before I can start putting more than one pip into a weapon?

If dual classing to a fighter, are there any restrictions or can I get to grand mastery?

What does everybody else like to put in their Contingency and Sequencer spells? Making this post largely out of curiosity and to see if perhaps there's some awesome combo that I overlooked.

Minor Sequencer - I used to put double Magic Missiles in this slot ("Say hello to my Ten-Shooter! PEW PEW!"), but after encountering a certain Planeswalking Rakshasa in Siege of Dragonspear, I've since changed it to a combined Web+Stinking Cloud. I've found it to be quite a nasty combo for hurling into the back of a large group of enemies and having them permanently incapacitated from one spell or the other.

Contingency - You can't really go wrong with the classic "Stoneskin at 50% health", but I got a bit tired of having to recast my Contingency every time my Mage took a lucky high-rolling Fireball to the face, so I instead changed it to "Improved Invisibility at 25% health". This not only tends to take my Mage out of immediate danger (primarily because it also prevents spellcasters from directly targeting me), but it also gives me time to re-position and perhaps cast some other defensive spells before attacking again.

Spell Sequencer - I used to put 3x Flame Arrow into this to provide a heavy hitting puncher, but more recently I've started putting 3x Skull Trap thanks to the Tweaks mod that improves the detonation trigger for Skull Traps if you cast it into an area where enemies are standing. Much fewer creatures are immune to Magic damage, and it packs a small (so it's less likely to hurt your front line fighters) AOE burst into the bargain.

Spell Trigger - I usually use this as my "Shield Breaker", with a combination of Pierce Magic+Breach+Lower Resistance, for use against spellcasting foes like Liches. At higher levels though I usually need to throw in a Pierce Shield first to remove any high-level wards before casting this.

Chain Contingency - This one I'm torn about. My current plan is to put in a 3x Horrid Wilting (since BG's version of Horrid Wilting doesn't affect party members) on "Enemy that last hit the Mage" when my Mage falls to 10% HP (again, I'm trying to avoid having to recast my Contingencies too often) as a "Doomsday Nuke" when things get really desperate, but there are lots of other defensive strategies I could use too.

Xan's New Groove is in full swing; quite literally! This module sets out to make Xan relevant (again) while also properly giving the Non-Player Character a more fleshed out backstory of supporting items and a chance to live out his potential throughout the Original Baldur's Gate! Xan gets a remastered Moonblade +3 and some new supporting personal magical items that allow him to become a melee wizard right off the bat! The treasure chest in Mulahey's Lair is now jam packed with crucial early game spells that best work for Xan's Enchanter Mage Specialization limited spell pool and new found roll of a blast and slash melee wizard! There are some extra bonus items added in for that extra level of polish and quality! The Ring of Accurate Striking +1 is a very solid item that can be used by any early game melee character to avoid those frustrating string of low level misses; a great extra value item designed to naturally blend with and enhance the Original Baldur's Gate gameplay experience. So why not give Xan's New Groove a spin? The module works great with Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition version 2.0+! Also please feel free to give any feedback; this is my first proper independent content release. Everyone please enjoy my early Christmas gift to the community :-D! Additionally Big Thanks to @Arunsun @CamDawg @Gwendolyne and @AstroBryGuy

This mod is currently in OPEN BETA, and all feedback is welcome. I’ll be updating and providing support as necessary, and I may even add new content here and there before the final release, but for now, it’s time to stop sitting on this. Let’s get it done.


WHAT IS THIS?
The BGEE NPC Pack includes the original Vynd, Drow Assassin NPC mod as well as four brand new NPCs, all of whom will interact with each other and the classic Baldur’s Gate cast. Each one includes a friendship track and an array of player-initiated dialogue, with more options opening up as the game progresses.

You want quests? This time we got ‘em! Three of the four new characters come with their own personal missions, which must be completed to unlock all their player-initiated dialogue, plus a final, loyalty-inspired talk in the endgame.

You want loot? There’s plenty of new and unique items to be had; some supplied with the characters, others found through their quests, or just indiscriminate slaughter. Hoard them all!

You want romance? Nope. Sorry.


WHO ARE THEY?

LITTLUN PLUNKETT


VYND


MOIDRE


DAVE


FLARA


WHERE DO I FIND THEM?
DAVE: Beregost, near the obelisk
FLARA: Nashkel, Belching Dragon Inn
LITTLUN: Bear River (Area N of Gnoll Stronghold), southwest corner
MOIDRE: Beregost, Red Sheaf Inn
VYND: Beregost, Burning Wizard Inn


DO THEY FIGHT WITH OTHER NPCS?
Only Vynd and Kivan will come to blows, and it can be prevented by talking to Vynd before things escalate too far.


ANYTHING ELSE?
While it is intended that none of these characters (except Littlun) care about the party’s reputation, this feature still doesn’t work in the Enhanced Edition. If you want to use them all together, I recommend installing the Happy Patch component of the Tweaks Anthology. It’s okay. You’re not breaking the rules.

While Moidre is neutral, she responds best to a high reputation. If you want to get the most out of her, be good.

Keep Gorion’s letter! Having it in your inventory unlocks some additional player-initiated dialogues for each character.

Don’t tell Vynd you love him. You’ve been warned.


WHAT IF I JUST WANT VYND?
Vynd is the same snarky drow he always was, and aside from his interactions with the new NPCs, nothing’s changed. If you’ve played or intend to play the Vynd mod by itself, don’t worry. You’re not missing anything.

I'm trying to build special weapons with unique (scripted) on-hits effects, so far I had not stumbled upon any problem as long as the target was always single, the direct target of the attacker.

I have no idea why, maybe its a small error from me that I cannot understand atm, but in essence : targeting creatures through loops, from tagbased UniquePower-OnHit scripts reveals to be problematic and the list of creatures returned in the map are not always complete, thus not reliable.

This problem specifically happen in on-hit scripts, the very same verbatim script copied and used in a spell script and cast normally, or onActivate item will run without any problem and all creatures will be targeted successfully.

I've tested cursesong, chain lightning on on-hit weapons just for testing purposes, and they had the same targeting problems while working correctly in spells scripts.

This is very strange to me, maybe I'm too close to the thing that I'm blinded and the problem is ridiculously simple?

Hi, Ive finished BG1 many times but not BG2 once... I`ve bought sometime ago all trilogy EE and want to run all the way to finish!

There's the issue; I try through the Join Internet Game list or by Direct Connect - either way the log in just hangs. No error message, nothing - even if I leave it several minutes.

I do have a CD key, but I'm using a new router. What should I check?

Hey guys, i've started adapting the Fimir to the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons.

The Fimir are a race of one-eyed lizardmen from the Warhammer and Hero Quest games, and i Always liked them as a sort of evil counterpart of the lizardfolks. The ideal villains for adventures in the swamp.

Here's the Fimir Warrior. https://dandwiki.com/wiki/Fimir_Warrior_(5e_Creature)


Thoughts?

I've decided to make a chronological list of all the FR novels, comics and games and list what year they take place in the FR universe, since I am collecting the comics, audiobooks of the novels and playing the games, and I also want to educate you all on the chronology of the FR, which novel, comic or game takes place in what year, who wrote that novel/comic/game and who developed them and whatnot.

Here is Part 2 of the list of licensed Forgotten Realms novels, comic books, video games and tabletop games that have a confirmed time frame, and where they fit in the continuity of the Forgotten Realms. Last time I began way back in the beginning, at -30000 DR to 1368 DR. Now, I am going to start from 1369 DR and end somewhere in the 1400's. Here is a link back to part 1 if you missed it and want to find it https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/60662/the-complete-fr-novel-comic-and-game-timeline-part-1#latest ------ "Heroes of Baldur's Gate" 5e tabletop adventure game (By James Ohlen and Jesse Sky) (1369 DR) To make this unofficial adventure part of the chronology, I like to assume that this story takes place in the unspecified amount of days Gorion's Ward was in jail for a murder he/she didn't really commit. "Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear" ends in early 1369 DR Chapters 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33 and the epilogue of "Cormyr: A Novel" (1369 DR) "Fire is Fire", (Best of the Realms, Book III Story X) (Ches 1369 DR) The story of the novel "Star of Cursrah" ends in 1369 DR, including "The Shadow Stone" and "The Spine of the World" "Sea of Swords" of the Paths of Darkness (By R.A. Salvatore) (begins in 1369 DR) Fun fact: In the first Baldur's Gate game, if Gorion's Ward meets Drizzt and no hostilities are made (I'm talking about all of you who decided to attack him to steal his scimitars!), he tells Gorion's Ward that he is on his way to Icewind Dale. In this novel, Drizzt's opening monologue expresses how happy he is to be back in Icewind Dale, neatly tying in his brief appearance in the Baldur's Gate game. "Into The Nest Of Vipers" (Dungeon Magazine #75 Adventure) (By Matthew G. Adkins, artwork by Fred Rawles, cartography by Craig Zipse) (1369 DR) This adventure is set in the Vast. "Rising Tide" of The Threat from the Sea Trilogy (By Mel Odom) (1369 DR) "Under Fallen Stars" of The Threat from the Sea Trilogy (By Mel Odom) (1369 DR) "The Sea Devil's Eye" of The Threat from the Sea Trilogy (By Mel Odom) (story begins in 1369 DR) "Silverfall: Stories of the Seven Sisters" (By Ed Greenwood) (1369 DR) "The Glass Prison" (By Monte Cook) (1369 DR) "Pool of Radiance: The Ruins of Myth Drannor" video game and novel (The game was developed by Stormfront Studios, playable on PC Windows) (Novel version written by Carrie Bebris) (1369 DR) "The Black Pits 2: Gladiators of Thay" (A side game in BG2:EE developed by Beamdog) (1369 DR, many months after The Black Pits) The story will not make any sense if you are using a completely different group from the ones you used in the prequel "Crucible: The Trial of Cyric the Mad" of The Avatar Series (By Troy Denning) (1369 DR) "Master of Chains" ends in 1369 DR "Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn" the game and novel (The game was originally developed by BioWare, the Enhanced Edition version is developed by Overhaul Games of Beamdog) (Novel version written by Philip Athans) (begins in Mirtul 1369 DR) In the game version, Drizzt and his companions appear in the game close to the game's final chapter, which is problematic canonically because in 1369 DR, they are going through the "Sea of Swords" novel's story which is set far north beyond Neverwinter, so they are nowhere near Amn in any month in 1369 DR. The only way Drizzt and his companions come to Amn and meet Gorion's Ward is if the final half of SoA and all of ToB all takes place in 1370 DR, after Sea of Swords ends and before The Hunter's Blades Trilogy begins since SoA begins on Mirtul of 1369 DR, and there are tons of side quests to kill time on until the year ends and locations like Athkatla and Trademeet are further apart than the game depicts, so it is possible. "Scream of Stone" of The Watercourse Trilogy (By Philip Athans) (story begins in 1369 DR) "Hard Choices" (Realms of the Deep Story I) (1369 DR) "Fire is Fire" (Realms of the Deep Story II) (1369 DR) "Messenger to Serôs" (Realms of the Deep Story III) (1369 DR) "The Place Where Guards Snore at their Posts" (Realms of the Deep Story IV; The Best of the Realms, Book II Story XIII) (1369 DR) "Lost Cause" (Realms of the Deep Story V) (1369 DR) "Undermountain: Stardock" of the Dungeon Crawl tabletop adventure game trilogy (By Steven E. Schend) (Somewhere between 30 Eleint and 1 Marpenoth 1369 DR) "Forged in Fire" (Realms of the Deep Story VI) (1369 DR) "One who Swims with Sekolah" (Realms of the Deep Story VII) (1369 DR) "The Crystal Reef" (Realms of the Deep Story VIII) (1369 DR) "The Patrol" (Realms of the Deep Story IX) (1369 DR) "The Star of Tethyr" (Realms of the Deep Story X) (1369 DR) "Persana's Blade" (Realms of the Deep Story XI) (1369 DR) "And the Dark Tide Rises" (Realms of the Deep Story XII) (1369 DR) "How Burlmarr Saved the Unseen Protector" (Realms of the Dragons II Story V) (By Kameron M. Franklin) (Uktar 1369 DR) "Changing Tides" (Realms of War Story IX) (By Mel Odom) (Flamerule 1369 DR) "The Burning Chalice" (Halls of Stormweather Story I) ends. (1369 DR) "Honest and True": A Ruha and Malik story (Dragon magazine issue # 245) (1369 DR) "Pool of Radiance: Attack on Myth Drannor" tabletop adventure game (By Sean K. Reynolds) (1369 DR) This game takes place after "Pool of Radiance: The Ruins of Myth Drannor", but it can be taken as a stand alone or tie-in story. "The Honor of Two Swords" (Dragon magazine issue # 260) (1369 DR) "The Innkeeper's Secret" (Dragon magazine issue # 266) (1369 DR) "The Shadow Stone" ends in 1369 DR "Sword of the Dales" of the Randal Morn Trilogy (a tabletop adventure game) (By Jim Butler) (1369 DR) "The Secret of Spiderhaunt" of the Randal Morn Trilogy (a tabletop adventure game) (By Jim Butler) (1369 DR) "The Return of Randal Morn" of the Randal Morn Trilogy (a tabletop adventure game) (By Jim Butler) (1369 DR) ------ "Sea of Swords" of the Paths of Darkness series ends in 1370 DR "Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn" game version ends in 1370 DR "Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal" game and novel (The game was developed by BioWare as an expansion story to Shadows of Amn, the Enhanced Edition version is made by Overhaul Games of Beamdog) (Novel version written by Drew Karpyshyn) (Game: 1370 DR, Novel: 1368 DR???) Confusing, isn't it? Why is the novel version set in 1368 DR? I'll explain, because I've read it. The prologue of the ToB novel is set in 1368 DR, but after the prologue ends, the author somehow forgot to make it clear that the rest of the story takes place in the "present day", therefore the continuity of the novel version Baldur's Gate series is seriously thrown out of order, Throne of Bhaal is before Shadows of Amn even though it should be the other way around, because Jaheira gets killed off by Abazigal, and Imoen gets killed off by Sendai, and in SoA, Jaheira and Imoen are alive, except for Jaheira, she had been recently revived from getting killed by Sarevok towards the end of the BG1 novel. "The Magehound" 1st book of the Counselors & Kings Trilogy (Written by Elaine Cunningham) (1370 DR) "The Wizardwar" 3rd book of the Counselors & Kings Trilogy (story begins after "The Magehound" in 1370 DR) "The Sea Devil's Eye" of The Threat from the Sea Trilogy also ends in 1370 DR "Sea of Fallen Stars" (a tabletop game campaign expansion) (By Steven E. Schend) (1370 DR) The events of this tabletop game include and overlap some of the events from "Under Fallen Stars" and "The Sea Devil's Eye", this game is set after those novels, revealing some spoilers of plot elements from those novels, so before playing this game, read the novels first. "The City of Ravens" of The Cities series (Written by Richard Baker) (1370 DR) "Beyond the High Road" (Written by Troy Denning) (1370 DR) "The Thousand Orcs" of The Hunter's Blades Trilogy (Written by R.A. Salvatore) (1370 DR) "The Lone Drow" of The Hunter's Blades Trilogy (1370 DR) "The Two Swords" of The Hunter's Blades Trilogy (starts in 1370 DR after "The Lone Drow" ends) "The Jewel of Turmish" of The Cities series (Written by Mel Odom) (1370 DR) "The City of Splendors: A Waterdeep Story" of The Cities series (Written by Elaine Cunningham and Ed Greenwood) (story begins in 1370 DR) "For Duty & Deity" (tabletop adventure game) (By Dale Donovan) (Marpenoth 1370 DR) "Living Forever" (The Best of the Realms, Book II Story XIV) (1370 DR) "Temple Hill" of The Cities series (By Drew Karpyshyn) (story begins in 1370 DR) "A Tall Tale" (Realms of the Dragons II Story VI) (By J.L.

Reid), "Condemnation" (By Richard Baker), "Annihilation" (By Philip Athans), "Extinction" (By Lisa Smedman) and "Resurrection" (By Paul S.

Salvatore, playable on Windows PC, PlayStation 2 and Xbox) (1373 DR) Although this game's realm year isn't exactly confirmed, this game likely takes place sometime after The Hunter's Blades Trilogy and "The Orc King"'s prologue and epilogue and sometime before "The Pirate King" novel's story, and I have fairly strong evidence to believe this. Rannek, one of the main characters in this game, was briefly mentioned in "The Two Swords" as a member of the Riders of Nesmé, and the city Nesmé was overrun by an army of trolls in 1370 DR during the book's story, and Rannek was the only survivor of the Riders of Nesmé. In this game during the stand at Mithral Hall with Zhai, Illius, Thibbledorf and Drizzt against the troll army, Rannek found the chance to avenge Nesmé and his fallen friends who was members of the Riders of Nesmé by slaying the troll king.

The synopsis of Stardeep claims Kiril lost everything to stop the traitor. I'm not sure if the traitor is the same one Kiril helped Raidon and Delphe defeat yet, but it is possible. ------ "Double Diamond Triangle Saga: ("The Abduction" (By Robert J.

My break is over, now here is part 3 of my list of licensed Forgotten Realms based novels, comics, tabletop games and video games with a confirmed timeline (and those without a confirmed timeline that I can only make carefully thought out guesses). I will start from 1401 DR and end in 1491 DR, and this list will be pretty short because the 4th edition setting seemed not only unpopular to gamers like us, but also the authors like Ed Greenwood and R.A. Salvatore, I mean, jumping 100 years into the future, especially after the Spellplague without their consent... That means half or most of the characters they created that don't have a long lifespan like elves or dwarves are either old or dead. So, without further ado, let's get started. Here is the link back to part 2 if you've never seen it and are interested. https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/60669/the-complete-fr-novel-comic-and-game-timeline-part-2/p1?new=1 ------ "Gauntlgrym" of The Neverwinter Saga (Written by R.A.

Kemp) (begins and ends in 1450 DR) "Sandstorm" continues in 1450 DR, the Second Era of Skyfire ends "The Rose of Sarifal" (By Paulina Clayborne) (possibly 1450 DR) ------ "Dawnbringer" (Written by Samantha Henderson) (begins in 1460 DR and believe it or not, ends in 1600 DR!) Amazing, isn't it, jumping 121 years from the 4th edition setting! ------ "Gauntylgrym" of the Neverwinter Saga ends in 1462 DR "Neverwinter Tales" comic book series issues 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (Written by R.A. Salvatore and Geno Salvatore, published by IDW Publishing, cover art by Gonzalo Flores, interior art by Augustin Padilla, Jose Avilles, Tim Seeley, Leonard O'Grady, and Gonzalo Flores) (1462 DR) This comic book series takes place not long after "Gauntlgrym" ends, starring Drizzt and his new love interest, the bald elf Dahlia Sin'felle, and Valindra Shadowmantle is one of the characters in this story ------ "The Companions" of The Sundering Saga (By R.A. Salvatore) (begins in 1463 DR) Drizzt's deceased companions begin to reincarnate in this story (Realms of the Dead book "The Resurrection Agent" (By Erin M. Evans) (1463 DR) "The Last Legend of Gedrin Shadowbane" (By Erik Scott de Bie) (1463 DR) "Neverwinter" of The Neverwinter Saga (by R.A. Salvatore) (1463 DR) This novel is intentionally tied in to the Neverwinter MMORPG game because in one part of the book, the moon elf lich Valindra Shadowmantle led an attack on Neverwinter for the purpose of powering up the Dread Ring in the Neverwinter forest, a location that can be visited in Module 2 of the Neverwinter MMORPG "Charon's Claw" of The Neverwinter Saga (by R.A. Salvatore) (1463 DR) "The Last Threshold" of The Neverwinter Saga (By R.A. Salvatore) (begins in 1463 DR) ------ "Corsair" of the Blades of the Moonsea Trilogy (By Richard Baker) (prologue is in 1466 DR) ------ "City of the Dead" (By Rosemary Jones) (prologue set in 1467 DR) ------ "Shadowbane: Eye of Justice" (By Erik Scott de Bie) (prologue set in 1470 DR) ------ Realms of the Dead book "Feast of the Moon" (By Cristopher Rowe) (1471 DR) ------ "The Orc King" ends in 1472 DR (prologue and epilogue both take place in this year) ------ "Avenger" of the Blades of the Moonsea Trilogy (By Richard Baker) (begins in 1473 DR) "Venom In Her Veins" (By Tim Pratt) (possibly 1473 DR) ------ "Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle" (Tabletop game created by Christopher Perkins (the guy who usually is the DM for Acquisitions Inc.), and Jeremy Crawford) (1474 DR) Not sure about the realm year, just a wild guess ------ "The Fall Of Highwatch" of The Chosen of Nendawen Trilogy (By Mark Sehestedt) (1475 DR) This novel takes place a century after "Frostfell" "Hand of the Hunter" of The Chosen of Nendawen Trilogy (By Mark Sehestedt) (1475 DR) "Cry of the Ghost Wolf" of The Chosen of Nendawen Trilogy (By Mark Sehestedt) (1475 DR) ------ "Scepter Tower of Spellgard" 4th edition tabletop adventure game (By David Noonan and Greg A.

Evans) (1477 DR) Though no realm year has been officially confirmed, it shouldn't be hard to narrow down once you realize that this story takes place before Farideh made the warlock pact in the "Brimstone Angels" story, which comes up next afterwards. "Brimstone Angels" of the Brimstone Angels Series (By Erin M. Evans) (prologue is in 1477 DR) ------ "Unholy" of The Haunted Lands (By Richard Lee Byers) (1478 DR) "Brimstone Angels" continues and ends in 1478 DR "Brimstone Angels: Lesser Evils" (By Erin M.

"The Lost Crown of Neverwinter" (sequel tabletop game to Gates of Neverdeath) (Written by Erik Scott de Bie) (1479 DR) A couple months closer to Valindra's second attack on Neverwinter, one part of this game presumably happens during the Neverwinter MMORPG's prologue "Neverwinter" (The MMORPG game developed by Cryptic Studios, originally playable only on Microsoft Windows PC, but now playable on Xbox One and PlayStation 4) (main module begins in 1479 DR) The game's prologue begins with Valindra's forces attacking Neverwinter for the second time, and you have to stop them, and throughout the game there are various evil forces that threaten Neverwinter and its allies, not just those allied with Valindra Realms of the Dead book "Wandering Stones" (By Bruce R.

Then again, no lich goes down easy "Murder in Baldur's Gate" The Sundering Tabletop Adventure #1 (Created by Ed Greenwood, Matt Sernett and Steve Winter) (1482 DR) This tabletop game ties in directly with the Baldur's Gate games and novels, with Abdel Adrian, the much hated protagonist of the Baldur's Gate novels as one of the NPCs, and even Coran is in this game too, and the game's story ends with the inevitable resurrection of Bhaal. The fact that Abdel lived more than 100 years before he gets killed off even though he chose not to ascend to godhood and gave up his Bhaalspawn essence at the end of the ToB novel signifies that Imoen and the game protagonist could live that long too if he/she is human, half-orc or some other race with a short lifespan compared to elves, half-elves, halflings, gnomes and dwarves, and chooses to give up his/her Bhaalspawn essence and remain mortal at the end of the ToB game. Being a former Bhaalspawn guarantees longevity it seems. ------ "The Last Threshold" and "The Companions" end in 1484 DR "Dungeons & Dragons: Cutter" comic book series issue #1 "Birthright", issue #2 "The Lost Child", issue #3 "Sword, Wielder", issue #4 "A Dark Path", issue #5 "Homecoming" (comic books written by R.A. Salvatore and his son Geno Salvatore, art by David Baldeon, colors by David Garcia Cruz, letters by Neil Uyetake, cover art by Steve Ellis) (1484 DR, before "Night of the Hunter") "Night of the Hunter" of the Companions Codex series (By R.A. Salvatore) (1484 DR) "Rise of the King" of the Companions Codex series (By R.A. Salvatore) (1484 DR) "Council of Spiders" 4th edition tabletop adventure game (By James Wyatt and Logan Bonner) (1484 DR, during The Darkening) "War of Everlasting Darkness" 4th edition tabletop adventure game (By Shawn Merwin, Steve Townshend and James Wyatt) (1484 DR, after "Council of Spiders) "Storm Over Neverwinter" 4th edition tabletop adventure game (By Erik Scott de Bie) (1484 DR) the game references the events of The Darkening from "Night of the Hunter" and "Rise of the King". "Vengeance of the Iron Dwarf" of the Companions Codex series (By R.A. Salvatore) (begins in 1484 DR) ------ "Vengeance of the Iron Dwarf" of the Companions Codex series ends in 1485 DR "Legacy of the Crystal Shard" (The Sundering Tabletop Adventure #2) (Tabletop game created by R.A. Salvatore, James Wyatt and Jeffrey Ludwig) (1485 DR) "Archmage" of the Homecoming series (By R.A. Salvatore) (1485 DR) This novel is the origin story of how demons started appearing in the Underdark "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 3: "Curse of Icewind Dale" begins and ends sometime after month of Eleint in 1485 DR) This may come as a shock to those who have read "The Crystal Shard", but in Module 3, the main villain is none other than the villainous mage Akar Kessel, who comes back from the dead as a powerful wight. "Scourge of the Sword Coast" (The Sundering Tabletop Adventure #3) (Tabletop game created by Tito Leati, Matthew Sernett and Chris Sims) (1485 DR) Just a wild guess on the realm year.

If you haven't read these comic books before, you'll enjoy them, I know I did "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 5: "Rise of Tiamat") (begins and ends in 1489 DR) Linu La'neral, one of the companion characters from Neverwinter Nights is in this module's story and is one of the NPCs that helps player characters fight against Tiamat in the end of the module's story And alternatively the "Rise Of Tiamat" tabletop game (By Wizards RPG Team) (begins and ends in 1489 DR) The Neverwinter MMO's version of the Rise Of Tiamat and the tabletop version do not and cannot coexist. ------ Endless Quest book "Escape the Underdark" (By Matt Forebeck) (possibly 1490 DR) (Sometime before Sword Coast Legends because the red dragon Themberchaud who appears in Sword Coast Legends is in this open choice novel) ------ Elemental Evil Adventurers League game storyline modules "City of Danger", "Embers of Elmwood", "The Drowned Tower", "Mayhem in the Earthspur Mines", "Flames of Kythorn", "Breath of the Yellow Rose", "Bounty in the Bog", "Foulness Beneath Mulmaster", "Eye of the Tempest", "Cloaks and Shadows", "Oubliette of Fort Iron", "Dark Rites at Fort Dalton", "The Howling Void", "The Sword of Selflaril", "Black Heart of Vengeance", "Boltsmelter's Book", and "Mulmaster Undone" (1491 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 6: "Elemental Evil") (1491 DR) Minsc makes his first in-game appearance in this expansion of the game "Princes of The Apocalypse" tabletop adventure game (By Michele Carter and Stacy Janssen) (1491 DR, a few tendays or a few months after the Neverwinter MMO's Elemental Evil campaign) "Death Masks" of the Chosen Heirs series (By Ed Greenwood) (1491 DR) "Shadows of The Vampire #1" (issues #2, 3, 4 and 5 are set in the Ravenloft campaign setting) (Written by Jim Zub, art by Nelson Daniel, letters by Neil Uyetake, edits by John Barber, published by Ted Adams) (possibly 1491 DR) In Ravenloft, the comic book's story takes place before the tabletop game "Curse of Strahd" because Minsc and his party encounter Strahd himself before they return to the Forgotten Realms world. "Curse of Strahd" tabletop adventure game (By Jeremy Crawford, Laura Hickman, Tracy Hickman, Adam Lee, Christopher Perkins, Richard Whitters) (Forgotten Realms year 1491 DR) "Frost Giant's Fury #1, 2, 3 and 4" (Written by Jim Zub, art by Netho Diaz, letters by Neil Uyetake, colors by Thiago Ribiero, edits by David Hedgecock, assistant edits by David Mariotte, published by Ted Adams) (possibly 1491 DR) The story of this comic book series begins after Minsc, Delina, Krydle, Shandie and Nerys return to the Forgotten Realms world after being sent to and trapped in Ravenloft for a while in the "Shadows of The Vampire" comic book series. ------ "Sword Coast Legends" (A game developed by N-Space and Digital Extremes, playable on Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One) (1492 DR) This game was designed to be the spiritual successor of the Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights. The devs of Sword Coast Legend's forums said that this game is set somewhere between 1490 DR and 1492 DR, answering someone's question about the game's time frame in the Forgotten Realms, which means it would take a few years for the demons of the Nine Hells to completely infest the Underdark after what happened in R.A. Salvatore's Archmage novel. That's my educated guess, the in-game journal does not keep track of the game's time and day, month and year like Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights did. "Out of the Abyss", Tabletop game adventure (Published by Wizards of the Coast) (1492 DR) Rage of Demons Adventurers League game storyline modules "Harried in Hillsfar", "Shackles of Blood", "The Occupation of Szith Morcaine", "It's All in the Blood", "Bane of the Tradeways", "No Foolish Matter", "Herald of the Moon", "The Malady of Elventree", "The Waydown", "Quelling the Horde", "The Quest for Sporedome", "Hillsfar Reclaimed", "Writhing in the Dark", "Death on the Wall", "Szith Morcaine Unbound", "Assault on Maerimydra" (I enjoyed playing this part, and fighting Grazzt in the end was challenging for me and my party), and "Blood Above, Blood Below" (1492 DR) "Maestro" of the Homecoming series (By R.A. Salvatore) (1492 DR) "Sword Coast Legends: Rage of Demons DLC" (1492 DR) Drizzt is in this DLC's story, making Sword Coast Legends the fifth D&D game allowing the player's character to adventure and/or fight alongside him. The first one was Baldur's Gate, the second was Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, the third was Demon Stone, and the fourth is the 8th and 9th module expansions of the Neverwinter MMORPG. This DLC is set sometime after "Maestro" but before "Hero", because in this DLC, Drizzt's mind is still under the influence of the faerzress since the end of "Maestro", he is not the compassionate drow we knew anymore, he enjoys hunting worthy prey and will almost not hesitate to attack anyone in his way unless they prove to be a worthy ally against his prey, and he has no intention of returning to Catti-Brie even if you urge him to, because he is aware that he is not entirely sane, and he does not want want to be near anyone he cares about until Demogorgon is defeated, which he believes will clear his mind. "Hero" of the Homecoming series (By R.A. Salvatore) (1492 DR) "Evil At Baldur's Gate #1, 2, 3 and 4" another comic book series featuring Minsc, Delina, Krydle, Shandie and Nerys returning to Baldur's Gate with the scars they endured from the "Shadows of The Vampire" and "Frost Giant's Fury" comic book series. (possibly 1492 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 8: "Underdark", story written by R.A. Salvatore) (1492 DR) Through this module's story, your character gets to fight alongside Drizzt and his reincarnated companions against Demogorgon's demonic forces. "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 9: "The Maze Engine") (1492 DR) Drizzt and Minsc both appear in this expansion together, and Drizzt seems to know Minsc either personally or by reputation because when they meet, he is surprised that Minsc is still alive in this day and age. If it is personally, then Drizzt probably remembers Minsc back during the events of Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn game version, when Minsc traveled with Gorion's Ward. And Viconia's relative, Vizeran DeVir, appears in this expansion too. "Storm King's Thunder" table top adventure game (By Wizards of the Coast) (1492 DR, before the Neverwinter MMORPG's story of the adventure because Storvald is in this game and not the antagonist you fight at the adventure's climax, an ancient female blue dragon named Iymrith is the "final boss" of the adventure. I don't mean to brag, but when my D&D group played this adventure, my human fighter named Kanan Shan killed her singlehandedly, believe it or not! With the help of a potion that helped him grow to the size of a giant, of course, and because Iymrith was more focused on trying to kill Hekaton than my fighter (and she almost killed him too, but Kanan managed to bring her down when Hekaton was seriously bloodied.) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 10: "Storm King's Thunder") (1492 DR sometime during or after the tabletop game's story because Storvald is the "final boss" in the module) Reincarnated Wulfgar and Catti-Brie are in this expansion of the game and one of your in-game allies. "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 11: "The Cloaked Ascendancy") (possibly 1492 DR) "Tales from Candlekeep: Tomb of Annihilation" (PC game based on turn-based D&D Adventure System board games) (Developed and published by BKOM Studios) (possibly 1492 DR) Dragonbait, Alias's partner from the Azure Bonds novels is in this game. And the game reveals that Valindra is active again and up to no good, I knew she would come back because in the Neverwinter MMORPG's Shadowmantle expansion, you destroy her body, but not her phylactery, which cannot be found during that epic battle. "Waterdeep: Dragon Heist" tabletop adventure game (Written by Christopher Perkins, James C Haeck, James Introcaso, Adam Lee and Matthew Sernett) (1492 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 12: "Tomb of Annihilation") (possibly 1492 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 13: "Lost City of Omu") (1492 DR) ------ Endless Quest book "Into The Jungle" (By Matt Forebeck) (sometime after Tomb of Annihilation) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 14: "Ravenloft") (1493 DR) "Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage" tabletop adventure game (Written by Christopher Perkins) (1493 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 15: "The Heart of Fire") (1493 DR) "Neverwinter" (MMORPG game) (Module 16: "Undermountain") (1493 DR) "Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus" tabletop adventure game (By Christopher Perkins) (Likely 1493 DR) ------ Endless Quest book: "Big Trouble" (By Matt Forebeck) (Not sure where this goes yet) Endless Quest book: "To Catch A Thief" (By Matt Forebeck) (Not sure where this goes yet) That's about as far as I can get for now. In the meantime I will try to dig up some interesting information about all the novels, comic books and games I listed whether I have read or played them or not, something that'll pique your interest. And the reason why I skipped over adding Module 7 of the Neverwinter MMORPG, "Strongholds" is because there is no real storyline behind that expansion, just competitive gameplay based around strongholds. In the years to come, as more books get published and more games get released, I will modify this list from time to time as new information gets revealed. Remember, not everything is final in this list.

@niv, I have some questions and comments based on reading your doc over here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eYRTd6vzk7OrLpr2zlwnUk7mgUsyiZzLoR6k54njBVI/edit#heading=h.70hrnjef5wv3 I figured I'd start a thread rather than PM to invite discussion, hope that's okay. Thank you for the documentation and work so far! Questions/Comments: 1) If a server is passworded, will the game check that the player knows the password before downloading assets? 2) If a player has assets in HAKs/TLKs locally already, I expect nwsync won't source stuff from there unless a player manually jumps through a lot of hoops to seed their repository? That's probably not a feature I'd spend time on, but the thought did occur. 3) Our server still runs v1.69 and has server-only hak full of assets players DON'T need. There's various reasons for this and I'd be 100% okay with players downloading the contents of this HAK, but they don't need it and it is a waste of space on the player's side. Would you be open to giving the ability to mark specific HAKs as "private" or "server-side" in the Module Properties Custom Content tab? This would tell nwsync to skip the contents of these particular HAKs, if any. It would be the module designer's responsibility to get these settings correct. I have the impression server HAKs are not particularly unique to our world, but I don't get out much to other worlds. :) I'll play with the thing a bit over the next couple weeks as time permits, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to start a discussion in parallel. -Dave

Overview:

EEex is an executable extender for Beamdog's Enhanced Edition of the Infinity Engine. Its goal is to externalize certain parts of the engine to grant modders a greater degree of control over otherwise hardcoded mechanics. EEex does not make any gameplay changes itself - it merely enables other mods to do so.

Just give me the link!

Alpha versions of this project are now available on GitHub. EEex will support MacOS and Linux on launch, however, the current alpha version only supports Windows. In addition, BG2:EE v2.5.16.6 is the only supported game at the time of writing.

What does it do?

EEex, when installed, directly modifies the game's executable in order to insert a loader. This loader is used to alter the game's code on startup; the modifications that are made depend on the version of EEex installed, and any installed mods that make use of EEex's capabilities.

I'm a user, what do I need to do to install?

EEex is installed just as any other WeiDU mod. Simply extract the archive's contents into your game's base folder, and run the setup - it will take care of the rest. Please note that since EEex alters the game executable itself, you should ensure that the game is closed before running the installer! EEex is currently in alpha, and as such it is highly unstable. All immediate crashes are believed to be fixed, though you still risk a crash at any time. Use with care.

I'm a modder, how do I use EEex?

EEex makes changes to many different parts of the engine. Accessing and making use of new opcodes, actions, triggers, and objects is as simple as installing EEex. The real power of EEex, however, comes from its ability to change hardcoded engine behavior. The hooks that enable these alterations are completely defined and controlled by the Lua environment, and as such, modders wishing to use these systems will have to either: a) Insert a M_*.lua file into the override folder. or b) Edit UI.MENU directly. Detailed documentation pending.
Previous post: [EEex v0.2.0-alpha] Who's up for some new LUA functions?

Hi folks! Been awhile. I'm curious what low-down dirty (cheap?) tricks you've discovered in your many years of playing these games. Let the cheese commence!

Icewind Dale's Heart of Fury Mode was meant to be an "ultimate difficulty mode," but it wasn't very well executed. Its main feature is to give enemies extremely large HP bonuses, such that a regular orc could have about 100 hit points. This is bad because it makes fights very tedious. Most of playing Heart of Fury Mode consists of sitting around as your summoned creatures (which also get the extra HP) slowly kill the enemies. Icewind Dale's difficulty also suffers from the fact that the enemies' AI is terrible, and previously there was no good AI-enhancing mod (like Sword Coast Strategems) for Icewind Dale. This mod presents a more interesting "ultimate difficulty mode." It's not actually a difficulty setting, so it can be played on Normal, Insane, or even on Heart of Fury mode itself. Here are the main features: * Battles are made tougher by giving enemies more powers (for example, Fire Beetles can breathe fire), occasionally adding more enemies in an encounter, giving enemies better AI, and making enemies stronger all around, rather than simply by giving them lots of hit points. When possible, the mod powers up enemies by improving their main ability. Trolls in this mod regenerate faster, bombardier beetles use their spray ability more frequently, sword spiders move super-fast and attack ten times per round, and shadows are like Strength-draining mind flayers (to say nothing about what the mind flayers are like). * There are multiple ways in which I've improved the AI: I'm not sure if the mod's AI is comparable with SCS, but it's the closest thing for Icewind Dale. * The mod powers up most of the magic items in the game, like in Icewind Dale 2's Heart of Fury Mode. Example items: [spoiler] [/spoiler] * Summoned creatures are NOT powered up, so you can't rely on them. Some enemies will get special summoning spells that summon creatures that are powered up, though. * The party will be powered up slightly. Player characters roll 8-20 for stats (as in Dark Sun), rather than 3-18. (Keep in mind that enemies will also have stats like this) The party starts the game with 30000 experience (divided among the party, so a smaller party will get more experience per character). Pomab sells some good magical equipment and scrolls, and the party starts with a lot of gold. * Throughout the game items are added, removed, and switched around. There are new random item selections. The random items you get are more likely to actually be useful. * Many spells are revised. The purpose of the spell revisions is primarily to strengthen weak spells (sometimes significantly), rather than to weaken strong spells. The game will start off not too difficult - the goblins at the beginning of the game won't be much tougher than they are normally. But the game will get really hard really fast. I've released Version 3.0! Now the mod changes the whole game, including Heart of Winter and Trials of the Luremaster! You can download the mod here. Change Log: [spoiler] Version 2.0: * The Heart of Winter expansion has been modded. * I made druid shapeshift forms more powerful. Since the characters and creatures in the game are more powerful, the shapeshift forms need to be more powerful otherwise they could be less useful than the normal character. * Some spectral undead creatures (shadows, spirits on the Burial Isle) can now go through walls. Spectral undead that don't realize that they're undead (e.g. shadowed elves, spectral guards in Trials of the Luremaster) do not have this ability. * The enemy that you fight if you wish to be more experienced using Limited Wish now has some really badass abilities that no one else has (for context, this mod makes it so that this wish makes you fight a single, extremely powerful enemy rather than several golems; I won't spoil what this enemy is, but it gives 250000 experience (or more depending on the difficulty), and it's no pushover). * Skeleton Warriors were removed from Kresselack's tomb. I plan to put a more powerful version of them somewhere else in the game later. I made a few other changes to the Vale of Shadows. * Presio no longer casts Great Shout with Chain Contingency. She doesn't summon nishruus, and she doesn't use her Spell Trigger in the duel. * Geelo no longer casts triple Shout with Spell Sequencer. * I made some changes to items and put some more items in the game. * Chain Lightning and Soul Eater now only harm enemies like I intended them to and don't produce blue fires flying all over the place. * Know Alignment now offers no save, as I intended. * Star Metal Cudgel now deals 4d6 extra damage against unnatural creatures, as I intended. * Flame Strike, Iron Body and Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting have been modified. Version 3.0: * I finished my Trials of the Luremaster modifications. * Party members will be less likely to die permanently. I'm doing this because party members are going to die a lot in this mod, so it would be good not to have to reload as often. * Some enemies now require higher enchantments to hit. * Enemies now have better attack AI. * Goblin archers no longer shoot Goblin Arrows. * The prologue cave now has fewer Orc Archer Elites. * The Goblin Marshals and Orc Archer Elites in the prologue now use Whirlwind Attack instead of Greater Whirlwind Attack. * I made Lysan tougher. * I changed the powers of basic wights around a little to make them simpler and more sensible. They no longer drain luck on hit, nor do they have that weird life-draining ability I had given them that they only used on luck-drained creatures. Instead, they drain one level on hit. * Ettins now only have two attacks per round while throwing boulders. * Sahuagin leaders now correctly buff their allies as I intended. * Icasaracht now uses her aura of fear. * The moonblade created by the Moonblade spell now counts as a silver weapon and deals the extra damage against lycanthropes. * Wall of Moonlight now deals the full 5d10 damage against lycanthropes. * Cloak of Fear now lasts 1 turn and the save against the fear is made at -2.c * Mass Cause Light Wounds now offers no save. * Enchant Weapon now only sets the weapon enchantment to +5. * Rangers and Druids can now cast Dispel Magic. * I made the Wisdom requirements for the Wish spell higher. In order to get the best selection of wishes, you need to have 25 Wisdom. * Larrel's Sending no longer kills the party with Meteor Swarm at the Severed Hand entrance. I had originally made Larrel cast Meteor Swarm on the squirrel, but I had tested this revised cutscene before I had modified Meteor Swarm to have a larger area of effect. Now the party is in the area of effect, so they tend to get killed by it. Now Larrel casts Comet on the squirrel instead of Meteor Swarm. I have tested this and the comet doesn't hit the party. * Mirek now actually gives the reward he's supposed to. * The Unstrung Harp now actually takes three rounds to use. * I increased the power of some katanas. [/spoiler] Tips: - Do not play this mod on the game's regular Heart of Fury mode. The changes this mod makes to the game are separate from the regular HoF mode bonuses, so if you play on HoF mode, creatures will get the ridiculous HP that HoF gives them IN ADDITION to the even more ridiculous things that this mod gives the creatures. Play on another difficulty, like Insane, or Core Rules. When I was playtesting my mod I went through the game on Insane with double experience and max HP rolls. My team still got killed a lot. - Don't try to solo the game unless you really know what you're doing. - Make sure to have a character who can cast Dispel Magic. Dispel Magic is basically this game's version of Breach. There will be a lot of opportunities to use it once you reach Chapter 2.
