has anyone heard of a successful or even partially completed translation of Baldur's Gate I and/or Baldur's Gate II into NeverWinter Nights? I am sure it would easily become a Persistent World maker's wet dream and all, but I have always wondered if anyone has even attempted to take up the challenge. Given the huge amounts of work it would take to try to reconstruct Candledeep (is that the name of the first city you are in) alone would more than likely take weeks. A true conversion could possibly take a year or three in the process, especially with all the romance conversations, the possible additions of all those new henchmen modules people were always rejoiceing over, MINSC! (who gets a category all to himself), trying to transfer all the weapons... and then imagine if you will utilizing the Players Resource Consortium add-on for extra flavour. Oh the sheer terrifying joys...
So, has anyone heard of a project like this coming to fruition? Or will it always remain a pipe dream in the eyes of gamers who viewed the Baldur's Gate sequence as more than a CRPG, but a fantasy tale made real through the digital age?
