**** A note for those who have been following my mod****

Going forward, this mod will be hosted over at Gibberlings 3. I will still keep an eye on this forum and update my thread here as well, so please feel free to leave me feedback here. (Any and all feedback and/or suggestions are welcome) I have now included in spoilers the locations and upgrade recipes since they will not likely change in newer revisions.

Also, you may have noticed I skipped ahead quite a few versions since my last update. I've overhauled many of the item icons, along with avatar/projectile graphical changes and other corrections.

Most importantly, I've overhauled the way new projectiles, portrait icons, and display strings are added via my mod to prevent compatibility issues with other mods that also add these (provided they do so "correctly") A HUGE thanks to the folks over at G3 who pointed these issues out to me and showed me how to correct them.

As a nice bonus of moving over to G3, my mod now has OSX and Linux compatibility!

There are some content changes since the last update, mostly involving rearranging where some items are located, which is outlined in the spoilers.





What this mod does:

Imports more Siege of Dragonspear items into logical (to me at least) locations in BG2:EE during the Shadows of Amn campaign. They are attainable in a variety of ways – quest rewards, drops from enemies killed, shops, and containers.

Includes an optional component to force all import-able SoD items to be present in their normal locations. Since the Voidsword +3 and Voidhammer +3 are mutually exclusive, a choice is given for which to import. I included this component since many players (myself included) have had trouble with these items not importing into BG2:EE properly.

Adds upgrade options for the majority of the imported SoD items via Cromwell and Cespenar. All recipes are on both, so the player should not run into any issues upgrading items. Many of these new recipes require existing upgrade components within the game, keeping in the spirit of having to choose one upgrade over another for strategizing and replay-ability. In addition, I have also created a few entirely new upgrade components to fit with the theme for some of the upgraded items. I included an upgrade path for one importable item from BG1 as well, since I felt it deserved a future in BG2.

Adalon now drops silver scales, correcting what I felt was an oversight. (These scales are used in some of the new upgrades.)

Imports Helm of Opposition from BG1 - simply because it's fun, and if you know how to use it, it can be very useful.

All of the upgrades were created with balance in mind, and most have unique effects to keep things fun and fresh.
