Re: HD Version of Baldur's Gate?
Hey, they checked that web page's source-code, and found a hidden poem:
---------------------- An adorable little poem was also found in the site's source code, which we've dropped after the break. And hey, do us a quick solid -- if you're way into the Baldur's Gate franchise and spot something especially notable on that site, don't hesitate to shoot us a note. "Shadowy Figure- Raise Dead : Infinity Engine For years, I clung to the memory of it. Then the memory of the memory. And then... it returned. Better than it was before. Pore over the tapestries and works of art hanging from our walls if you wish, Child of Bhaal... perhaps you will find a clue. But patience, ah... patience would reveal it all. As the silver moon waxes and wanes, so too does life." ----------------- Muhahaha it gives me goosebumps.. hehehe.. |

They just changed the code and added:
"Take heart fellow adventurers, for you have curried the favor of Boo, the only miniature giant space hamster in the Realm!" LOL!!!! Awesome. |

Re: HD Version of Baldur's Gate?
New code at the bottom: "I can teach you how to use your wrath".
I had only recently discovered GemRB but I have been relying on IESDP (Infinity Engine Structures Description Project) for quite some time. It was only a year-and-a-half ago when Noty first got interested in IWD2 and played it through (including discovering that one of the premade parties cannot finish the game as designed!), moved on to Neverwinter Nights, and then to SoA/ToB. Her interest got me interested in them again (I still have only a little of ToB to finish).

Re: HD Version of Baldur's Gate?
One of the premade parties for IWD2 is comprised of all females--a drow, a svirneblin, a half-orc, two gnomes, and a half-elf. In Dragon's Eye, there is one point where you have had to create a sabotaged histachii brew to enter a room and trip the switch that will open the final room on the level. This potion is usable only by humans--the premade party has none, making the game impossible to finish.

Re: HD Version of Baldur's Gate?
Thanks. You learn something new every day (and I thought I knew everything there is to know about IE games).
