Anyone know what class this biography is from ? At the very least it's not the same as my current BG1 character... Or maybe they were changed in BGII. I didn't really paid attention to that...
Thanks for the link @lordkim, I found the answer "It basically replaced the bg2 paper dolls with the bg1 versions, also including race specific tweaks. So if you like the artwork from the original game more, this is very good news. "
Best piece of news ever: inclusion of 1PP into BG:EE. Let us not forget 1PP also restores flaming swords, bucklers and round shields. Now I only miss large shields (which may or may not be part of the upcoming 1PPv4 release).
Second best piece of news ever: the new GUI is going to have the stony skin, BG1-style. I *love* that stony skin, I had even requested it, and now I know it's there. Awe. Some.
Now they only have to confirm the original ingame font is also going to be there and I'll be in BG1-authenticity heaven.
We may see some news and screenshots as early as next week. Real_Risingsun: @TrentOster when do we get a sneak peak of the new Dwarven UI? #bgee TrentOster: @Real_Risingsun tuesday?
Doesn't sound definite, but sounds like we should be getting some updates soon. Hope there arent any more approval hiccups.

Now they can move your thread to the Implemented Section which does not exist anymore

I agree with all of this, was glad to see that the new GUI will be stony, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the font; and you never know, the large shield material could be done already (or nearly done) and be implemented into BG:EE.

@AndreaColombo : I wonder what happens if we cast Breach on top of it
Just kidding, I can't wait. Oster said a sneak peek is going to be released tomorrow, right? (well, Today for me, it's Tuesday already in CET)
The desktop shot was some of the screens we have to redo. the screens in BG are LEGION. Just when I've gone through some, more appear.
All the new voice acting is for the new characters. The old characters are contractually limited to the old content for the main game.
The new actresses are just for new content. The old voice acting is too good to replace!
Completed female voice actor auditions on Saturday. Some awesome talent lined up.
So not one but several actresses ! And since the new character doesn't look female, we might just have some interesting women heroines ? Or maybe more background voice ? Still waiting for the big update and screens though ^^
One thing i know is : We cant handle the time !!!!!!!! We are weak, and out of any sign of patience...We are what they call : The weakest of the weakest.... Boo wouldn´t be proud
We might not handle time well, but we could haste ourselves! HUZZAH! *casts haste on all the BGEE forum members* Now we wait for it to wear off... and then we all get fatigued. Then we go to sleep, and 8 hours later we check the news!

Trying to work through all the BG UI screens Here's a quick shot of some of the existing character generation screens. http://pic.twitter.com/jKFHwLg2
:P
"TrentOster: I'm still going through each BG2 UI screen as the basis for the new UI screens. We need to duplicate the functionality and add some new."
"TrentOster: We're revising it pretty hard. So far it is still in progress. Yesterday I described it "If the BG2 UI is elven, #bgee is dwarf"
...Great.
...Great.
Trentoster:
The "Dwarven" UI theme of #bgee can be summarized as more stone, more metal trim and simple shapes, less elaborate ornamentation.
Trent Oster @TrentOster
@Solivagant Erephine has agreed to include the 1PP work into #bgee We're just trying to make it play nice with our setup.
BGEE is looking more and more "too good to be true" with every new piece of news.

"Trent wishes he had someone like Boo to look after contracts "
Is it a bad sign or a good sign????
Is it a sign at all?
...
Hurray !
