*****A massive thanks to @neoesprit for all his help and feedback with this mod so far, it is much appreciated and he has helped to make it much more well rounded. Also thanks to @kamigoroshi for helping with lore, background information and kit ideas*****


-----------------------------------------

12/1/13 - V1.61

Nothing exciting in this one, mainly for BG2 or BGT users.

Default cleric kits now change the appropriate text depending on which game engine you use (the descriptions for each kit are kept at different string references in BG:EE and BG2)

Improved Wizard Slayer kit now changes the appropriate text as above.

Scout may only put 3 points into shortbows and crossbows.

****I need feedback on whether this works or not as I can't test it myself due to having lent out my BG 4 disc set to a friend*****

---------------------------------------------------------

This is a kitpack for BG:EE that should also be mostly compatible with and suitable for BG2 (no custom HLA's yet).

In all it adds 7 cleric kits, 3 thief kits, 2 paladin kits, 4 fighter, 2 druid, 2 ranger and 2 bard kits

----------------------------------------------------------

Things to note (read here if you are having problems)

1. You must have weidu installed and ready to go to use this mod.

2. To prevent problems you should install any new components and reinstall all of the old components in the same install.

3.Converting NPC's to new kits will only work if you do it in the same install as the new kit itself (Weidu keeps the new kit number in memory throughout the install and this is needed to ensure the NPC's get updated correctly.)

4. If you install more than 6 of the cleric kits not all of them will be visible at character creation - this is a limitation of the game that only overhaul can fix and not a bug with the mod

5. If you are part way through a game and install a new version of the mod your kits may be changed due to the mod adding new content, this can be changed back in shadowkeeper and is sadly something that I have no way of preventing at the moment.

6. If your installer comes up saying "I have only been given 23 things to append but 25stweap.2da has 26 lines" or something similar, this is due to an inconsistency in an earlier version of the kitpack that has now been rectified. It is easily fixed by doing the following:
a) Delete 25stweap.2da from your override folder.
b) Reinstall your mods, making sure to use the very latest version of the kitpack
c) Enjoy the game, this problem should not occur again

-----------------------------------------------------------------

This has been tested to some extent by myself and others but all feedback is good feedback, I am certain there are little things I have done wrong or missed out. I am going for balance within this mod, I realise you can;t achieve perfect balance between classes but I don't want any paper tigers, glass cannons or cookie cutters
