Sir Bully leafs, ultimate BG Resource and refernce page!! (NO SPAM) Sir Bully leafs, ultimate BG Resource and refernce page!!
Perhaps someone is interested in my site, it was dedicated to improving the Enemy AI in infinity engine games, now its mostly chit chat about mods the members are working on. But most of the original scriptors are still there, however like me, they probably got tired of scripting for awhile. But if anyone has any scripting questions, well, I still read the posts... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IEEAIS (ps I hope this post isnt spamming, I am just trying to be helpful and include my site in case someone needs the info there or my help, if anyone considers this spamming, please tell me.)
@Craig, this was a very good idea. I've decided to make this topic "sticky," so that others can make use of the resource. I would only ask that this topic NOT be spammed, so that the materials at the top of the first page may be easily available. If you have corrections or additions to make, fine; otherwise, let's let this one just sit.
for fantasy art you could use http://www.nightrunner.com/gallery/html/index.html It's all tolkien artwork but it's quite the collection.
Wow, I didn't expect that! Thankyou for the appreciation. I will update the new links from here. Unfortunately I cannot Edit that first post of this thread but there is a link to the origional there and there should also be a link in my sig. Do you think I should just start a new thread or just leave this one?
Sorry, but the thread has a poorly chosen title. The gNPCPak3 link points to gNPCPak2. Here is the correct link.
I've got a site with some home made soundsets for BG2 and Icewind Dale; I doubt I'm ever going to make any new ones, but I see no reason to take the site down. So if you're looking for soundsets from Stewie (Family Guy) or Bender and Zap Brannigan (both Futurama), this is the place to go. Groj's soundsets ps I think they're also featured on Sorcerer's Place as I've submitted them there once. But the download locations are still the same, so if you're interested in them, downloading them from either site will still go with the same speed.
@Quitch, instead of posting links to another board (which Buck frown on), why not just update your list here, as it changes? I'm sure we can handle it periodically. If the old versions make the thread too unwieldy, either you or I can delete 'em, as you add new ones.

Kelsey, the sorcerer NPC add-on for both SOA and TOB, can be downloaded here: http://www.forgottenwars.net/kelsey Between the SOA and TOB portions, Kelsey includes over 100 new conversations, over 400 new audio clips, two romance paths (Kelsey and the PC, and Kelsey and Imoen), new enemies, magical items, spells, and surprises.
From the people who brought you Kelsey and Dungeon-Be-Gone, I am proud to announce the initial release of the NPC Flirt Packs for Baldur's Gate 2, available for immediate download at http://www.forgottenwars.net/npcflirt . Using a concept originally developed for the Kelsey NPC add-on, the Flirt Packs add new romance interludes for the Bioware NPCS to both the Shadows of Amn and Throne of Bhaal portion of the game. It doesn't make sense that the BG2 romance NPCs call all of the shots in the relationship, right down to when it is and is not appropriate to show a little affection. Besides, who among you can say that you've never felt Aerie, Anomen, Jaheira, or Viconia just needed a hug? Features include: - Both PC and NPC-initiated flirts and new conversations - Context-sensitive flirting (new flirts and different responses open up as the romance progresses) - New epilogues in TOB (three for Jaheira in V0.8, more to come for other NPCs in future versions) - Optional romance conflict modules for Westley Weimer's Solaufein romance - Compatible with most mods - Warm fuzzies all around
Oversight Mod This project adds a Tougher Sendai combat (missing from current Tougher/Improved combat packages!) as well as many fixes to oddly coded alignments and classes for scenery characters. Click here for the project site.
All of Weimer's mods have moved from the Berkeley web space to www.weidu.org ... can someone with admin access perhaps edit the links in Quitch's post? "www.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/bgate" would be replaced by "www.weidu.org".
