I think I got something working here, if I could get some help testing it.
I have only tested it myself on current versions of BGEE, BG2EE, IWDEE. No beta clients.
With this version there are two small wait times, on my computer the first one took about 5sec and the second one between 0-5sec.
It should work with all character creation, BGEE, BG2EE, IWDEE, TBP, TBP2 (single player, multiplayer, pre-gen)
I got mine working last night. I was able to get it to work using the latest v4 (AHK). I believe there is a link to it a page or two back. The way to do it is run it from the hotkey script rather than the application. That worked for me.
Ok I try it on BGEE, BGEE beta, BG2EE & BG2EE beta and each time the hand mouse run to the left side of the screen therefore can't click on the roll button.

This works for me. Tip anyone who tries to use it - be sure and disregard the false positive. I assume it triggers this because it works the same way a virus works (presumably because it's not using AHK like the other version?). It also takes a second to search for your character but just be patient and it will work, and work great.

Just tested this with BG1 2.0 Beta from Steam, got me a 95/82 in a matter of 5 minutes. Worked fine.
Letting it run for another 30 seconds gave me a 100/48 That said, would it perhaps be smarter to first store the Store button, and then the Recall button? That would cause the Recall button to never be gray at the moment you'd have to click it. (I know it doesn't matter, but it would prevent you from having to place that warning.)
Ahh, that makes sense. I guess it could technically go the other way around too, if you have a good roll open, but assuming that people stored that first is probably safer than people that already stored a good roll have that roll currently open.
Regardless, it works like a charm on the 2.0 beta for BG1. Do you think it needs testing for BG2?
@Freche: I seem to have issues with the Minimum STR% to store. Having it set to 51, it just replaced a 87/91 roll with an 88/11 roll. I'll guess I can circumvent this by actually applying values to the individual scores (I only did this for 100, since 51-99 all have +2 to hit), but it may be worth checking into.
@kaguana Truth be told, I have no idea why the mouse moves to a wierd position for you. It seems to be working for others, it doesn't break for me. You could try this version here, I have made some overall changes and this one should work a bit better then prev version.
In the 3.0 version I occasionally had to close and restart. In 3.1 I can go ahead and roll several characters one after another without issue.
However, it does sometimes save the incorrect value. Now this could be because I set the speed too high, and it already skipped past the new value.
Perhaps, when it clicks reroll, have it check to see if the rerolled scores are actually there and registered, before pressing reroll again.
If that's not a solution, then perhaps, when it registers a higher roll, have it wait a full second, and check again. If the higher roll is still there, store it. If the higher roll is not there, reduce the speed by 1, and continue without overwriting what was in store (perhaps click Recall to make sure what was there).
Couldn't get v3 to work on BG:EE beta v2! Rolling fine but not scanning/storing values. v3.1 doesn't even get past character check n°2!
So, I used @newydavecustom file and modified values. My offsets were all different! For BG:EE:
OFF1 = 0x00524DAC
OFF2 = 0x644
(STR OFF = 0x0B8C28D4)
@Abel I might have improved the second check now, I noticed that sometimes it started the check a bit too fast. @Thels Thanks again, I have slowed down everything a little bit and also moved a delay, I think the issue was similar to the character check, in that sometimes the script checked the "new" roll too fast (before the game generated it) if you notice that it stores the wrong score try to lower the speed with DOWN.
I'll upload v3.2 with these changes tomorrow when I'm home after work.
@Freche: I've pressed down once each time it came up. I think it's fine now, though not 100% sure. Sometimes it worked fine a dozen times in a row, and then botched again.
In 3.1 down slows the rolling but it doesn't help with your problem, hopefully I have solved that with 3.2
The rolling is however not on steroids anymore.
Sorry for the delay. Here is v3.2 hopefully it will work better for you.
It rolls a bit slower then the previous, hopefully with less errors.
(You could set SCAN_DELAY in the ini-file to 0 to make it roll much faster, but then there might be rolls that are skipped due to speed)
I'm using v3.2 on BG1EE and it doesn't seem to be working for the F/M/T class and after checking further, also for the F/M/C class. It gives the "no character found" error. Seems to only be affecting the triple multi-class options.
Can confirm that it works fine on an Elven Fighter/Mage, but bugs out on an Elven Fighter/Mage/Thief during step 2/2, almost directly after pressing the Reroll button.
Updated the first post with newest version, triple class should now also be working.
@armoredgorilla Thanks for pointing it out, fixed it with v3.3 (see first post).
@smeagolheart I know, I looked a bit into it and making a ingame version would be the best way to go about it. However making major changes in the UI is not as userfriendly as it might seem in the patch notes. Sure there is a lot of power in there, there are tons of things we can now do.
I have looked a bit into it, I have already made a post in the UI thread with my version of that autoroller (a very simple version). I might look into this in the future, once this new UI modding is a bit more established and Beamdog has done some patching for their new UI.

Are you using beamdog or steam version?
Freche, you're AWESOME!

The new UI is even more flexible than I thought....
@Thels Ohh good catch, fixed it. Thanks.

I'm sure the program is working fine, it's most likely an error on my side.
What offset values do I use and where do I put them in the ini file? I'm just looking for a decent roll (Around 93+)
Could someone explain please?
Right now I haven't edited the ini or anything, so the basic steps would help a lot.
Apologies for being stupid with this, but for some reason I just can't seem to get it working whatever I do.
Edit: Nevermind, managed to puzzle it out and got it working.. literally a few minutes after posting this.. typical. -_-
@Freche: Any chance you can update the initial post with your new version?
The last couple pages in the patch notes are devoted to making an autoroller.
