Many people are looking for downloadable stuff, mods, patches, and so on. If you find something that may benefit others as well, post it on this thread. If you encounter problems with any of the links, please let me know through PM. Thanks! Post only short descirptions and links, please. Icewind Dale Tweak Pack v2 - thanks to Andyr!
Here is a link to some utilities and the like over at Sorcerer's Place http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/IWD/index_editors.php These include: Character Scripts A Script Compiler Premade Characters Portraits (BG 1, 2 and Planescape Torment) Auril's Bane Mod a 3E rules conversion a Tweak Pack and the Ease of Use Pack Also under TeamBG Tools there is a file that removes the experience cap.
Is there a link for Luremaster where one can download this FREE add-on without having to pay for it? Seems like all links I've found point to download sites, via paid membership or require me to install something on my computer to get it for free. No thanks! Even the Sorcere's place lists mentioned above links to downloads but they either just go to the patch, or to for-pay download sites.
Try this one. Note that it says it's a HoW-TotL patch, but it is in fact the downloadable 71 MB TotL expansion. It's where I got it.
I had intended to make this an extensive list, but alas, real life calls. I'll edit after the holidays and hopefully make this a worthwhile compilation. Game Play Gibberlings 3 Tweak Pack - Sort of an Ease-of-Use and rebalancer for Icewind Dale. Auril's Bane - Tweaks, new items, and original quests. BGII NPCs In Icewind Dale - Introduces the 15 (plus others) NPCs from BG2 into the game, complete with portraits and soundsets. Sorcerer's Place - Directory of useful Icewind Dale mods and tweaks. Tioma's Ease of Use for Icewind Icewind Dale Improvements - Even more tweaks and balances for the game. Portraits Gibberlings 3 Portrait Packs Auril's Bane Portraits - A compilition of portraits from games and other media.
I've noticed over the years there has been a problem with some installations of IWD not having combat music. Looking in NearInfinity shows each area has a combat music value of -1 and there have been some requests for help. I am attaching a fix for IWD 1 and 2. Simply extract all the .are files into your OVERRIDE folder and you're set.
