First run down to your nearest book store and pick up PG Gamer Magazine Octotber 2004 D&D 30th annversary Special Issue. It comes with a Free & complete DVD version of Baldur's Gate 1 game + 4 demos and Three mods for Baldur's Gate II and 27 Mods for NWN. Then after you get home turn to Page 74. Neverwinter Night's 2 will use the new 3.5 rulles where NWN 1 uses 3.0 rules. Feargus Urquhart (creator of Black Isle and the Baldur's Gate series along with Bioware are Producing it and Atari will be The Publisher. The release date is Fall 2006 (Two Years away ) but from what I read I was right in my original post about compatability with the first tool set but that's still up in the air, go get the mag and read it for yourself. It apears to be a major overhall of the game and won't be a continuation of the original 3 mod series.
OH yeah NWN 2 is Still AD&D and T-D-C was right Dragon Age isn't NwN 2, major relief!! PS BALDUR'S GATE III Preview is in the Magazine too!! IT'S ALIVE Ya HOO!! [ 09-08-2004, 09:38 PM: Message edited by: TheCrimsomBlade ]

Yes a complete version of BG1 on DVD so it is totaly compatable with windows 98SE - XP and it comes as the latest version with all the patches + a bunch of mods for BGII like Epic Endevers. I'm just getting home from work so after I load it I'll list all the MODs and let you know if tails of the sword coast is included. be back in awhile.
