    Is there any reason the frame rate can't be selectable under options? While editing the .ini is well and good, it seems better to code such a thing for the player's convenience.

    @CameronTofer: Good :D
    Have you noted that issue about Scratchy audio on movies after update 1.0.2009?
    Some people are experiencing this problem here

    Kinda strange as before that patch no audio problem was encountered.

    Damn was hoping to see Elven chain available again. Oh well it'll be available by patch 2010 or 2011 I'm sure. Great work Beamdog =)

    I'd guess it's because they wanted to make sure it worked before they designed a UI field for it.

    Fixes are, y'know, really important. But do I remember correctly that balance updates might be on the table, as well?

    More likely is that when the patch cleared out your third-party mods, some other error was caused, perhaps one causing the journal to display incorrectly.

    Amusing note: WHen you make a new game, the auto save states it is 30,000+ days.

    I had the same thing happen. Before I had very little in the way of journal entries, now I have only the important events.

    Edit: Turns out once I got new quests they all came back. Figures :)

    when i try to change my character's sound.. it crashes the game... Maybe this patch doesnt like anything new.

    Mmkay, quick question, before I download the update/patch, is there a good way to backup my current install? Can I just make a copy of the relevant game folders (the one in C:\Programs + the one in My Documents)? If some my game breaks post-update, can I simply replace the patched folders with the old ones?

    Uninstalling mods -> patching -> reinstalling mods seems to work well this time.. though ymmv obviously.

    Yes, you can make a backup of the entire game folder and filed in My Documents prior to patching.
    If something goes wrong when updating its possible to just copy the files prior to the update and overwrite the updated game folder.

    Any words on the journal update. Still a great deal of bugs/flaws in it.

    When I set my cast spell hotkey to C pressing C still does nothing. Tooltip says C is the shortcut but F7 is the one that still works.

    If you patched the game with the latest update, the version is displayed at the upper right of the main menu - v1.0.2009

    Already noticed the backpack icon is now brown, only grey when there is no space; Blurry journal text also seems to be fixed. Will keep an eye on Neera's wild surges (Some seemed to do nothing pre-patch)

    Great work, Keep the patches coming ^^

    When I quit my game and go back in and reload my save all my journal entries are gone. However, the moment my characters move they reappear.

    Ah yees.. nice to have a new patch already here too! : and that time, it worked totally flawlessly, nowhere near the mini nightmare i had with the previous launcher and previous update; here, flawless, excellent. :)

    Now.. great to have the main new chars dialogues loops fixed apparently - was the most urgent indeed for new playthroughs i'd say.

    Now.. just quickly, from my quick tests here:
    - keys '1...6' + 'm' (always) not working properly on keyboard azerty/fr
    - special class damages bonuses from special abilities (always) NOT appearing also on the stats; can be very confusing too (tested on swashbucklers / kenzai / bard blades offensives spins / etc ) ; would be great if we knew the damage bonuses there too (the AC/Thac0 bonuses do appear -even if not 'said'-, just not the damages bonuses.. and at lvl10 with a swash/kenzai(7) etc = +3/+2 dam auto.. not nothing either - tested at 160000xp with the console..) ). [nb: they DO exist/kenzais at least - easily tested with a 'kai'..just not appearing on screen stats so^].
    - bard blades defensive spin seems (always) to be buggy at high levels (lv10 here) ; can move freely and even attack, and with a -24 AC (seems to work ok at lv1 though) -!
    - not sure if that was already in the original BG1/2 (don't remember), but i noticed also a weird thing, with pure fighters lv7+ (with console) ; they do get the 1/2 weapon speed bonus at lv7+, but _only_ with the weapons they have a 1 profeciency point in (not all - 0 profeciency points = 0 extra speed - weird).. not sure if that was already there, that too. -?!

    Anyway.. great to know the main quests/new chars dialogues loops have been fixed and taking care of already.. a good thing in the right direction too. :)


    i am sure the 2012 version will be perfect.. crossing fingers. :)
