Hey all...
does anyone know where i can find an ITEM EDITOR for BG2??? i've been looking but no luck. is anybody making one yet??? if you can help, plz do!!!
thanks.

Yes, get Shadowkeeper from http://www.mud-master.com/shadowkeeper . It allows you to change nearly all aspects of your characters, including inventory. It has all the items in the game, plus those in the collector's and bonus cd's.

Go to the following link and download this guy's version of the Infinity Engine Editor called 'Infinity Engine Editor Pro'.

I've heard it works for BG2 items and spells (I've only tried it for spells so far.. but it worked fine).

You'll have to use Bifftool to extract the item and spell files from the BG2 'data' folder. Biffstripper only works for the first BG. Bifftool comes with a README that tells you how it is done.

I dont know rerally but i believe you'll also need VB6 from teambg to "read" the item editor but you can find that on teambg.com

Use shadowkeeper, it is a doddle to use and very powerful and requires nothing else to work.

With shadowkeeper, you can only spawn or place the already existing items in BG2 in your inventory or character. I think what our gamer neigbour here meant is to actually edit the items or even create one from scratch.

As Rikard said your best bet is to check the TeamBG site here.

BTW go to the developer site to get acces to spell editor item editor bifftool and other stuff
