I thought it would be very easy, but when opening BGII: ToB, I don't have the option to import my final save.

I'd love some help on how to do this. TIA.

When you say ToB, do you mean you are skipping SoA? Or maybe it was a typo. Anyway, you can do this by opening up your final save back in BG1, going to your character records, and looking for the tab that says "Export". Export it, then quit out of your game. Head to the BG1 game directory and open a folder titled "Characters", where you can copy the character file and paste it in the Characters folder over in the BG2 directory. Then open it up, start a new game, and during character generation just say Import at the lower right. Choose your character and voila! I think that should work. Have fun!

can i export a level 1 character to bgii (just for fun)?

I think you have miss-understood, Brainless One, he wants to start TOB from his BG2 final save, before the battle with jon.

I just read the thread title, may be a typo, should it be BGII?

I'm sorry for any misunderstandings.

I was trying to find out how to get my final save from BGI into BGII.

After realizing that I had a typo in my search attempts, I figured out how to do it.

Thanks anyway everybody. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Back up there to Klorox: Yes, you can. However, the game will automatically raise his experience to a beginning-worthy XP level where you will have to pick new proficiencies and such. It won't let you start with anything less, unless you cheat like crazy to get it in there.
