I'm really desperate here. I'm trying to export my single player party members, but it only lets me export the PC made characters. Anyone know how to get around this?

Nope, can't do it. The best you could do is go into a Multiplayer game and hack another player-created character to match the one(s) you want to keep.

The reason you can't export the NPCs (like Imoen and Kivan) is that some of them reappear in BG2, and it'd be too Star Trekky to have, say, Branwen meeting alternate-universe Branwen.

If you gave any of the Tomes to an NPC (like giving Minsc the Manual of Quickness of Action), they're pretty much wasted, for BG2 purposes: Any Minsc existing in BG2 will have the exact same DEX, whether you increased in in BG1 or not. Some players might call this unfair, and (to continue this example) cheat the BG2 Minsc another DEX point to account for the Tome they gave him in BG1. BUT! Some of the returning NPCs already have stat increases, whether you gave them Tomes or not, so the ethics of cheating them further stat points become highly suspect. You're better off giving all of the Tomes to yourself, and taking the BG2 NPCs as they come.

Wow, look at all the answers I gave, and you only asked one question.

Yeah, give yourself a pat on the back, you rock. =)

Thanks

No, thank you. Does this mean I'll be famous? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Seriously, I just seem to have a game-designer mentality, so I've got a knack for remembering this sort of stuff, and I enjoy helping people out with non-spoiler material. Man, that really sounds corny, but I just got out of Spider-Man, so I have this whole Lawful Good thing web-swinging through my head. :D

If I'm lucky, my BG Guide will be half as good as you expect it to be.
