    I had a mess around with the multiplayer yesterday as well. It's miles better than the old IP address, port tunnelling, cross fingers and hope method.

    I've been in the beta for a few weeks so I've probably forgotten how big a step it is, but it still seems significant.

    I'm digging the fact that it's now possible to mod racial restrictions on classes, kits, and multi-classes. I've already started up a Halfling Sorcerer to celebrate.

    Too bad I know nothing about modding. I'd love to recreate my halfling bard from pen & paper DnD.
    The latest version of BG Tweaks has the option to remove racial restrictions. If you don't want to go that far, it's actually a pretty easy adjustment to make with Near Infinity.

    Interesting. Multiclass characters don't roll hit points from the individual classes then divide by 2 (or 3, if you that brave); rather, each multiclass type has its own .2da table for HP. Not bad.

    A new table for classes by race.

    Fascinating. Clswpbon.2da now gives fighters only a 2-point penalty for using weapons without having the proficiency.

    An editable .2da for allowing or disallowing mage specialty by race.

    hrm....is it possible to get past the limit of 5 on summons? (I don't have this problem already but it looks like it has been addressed from an official point of view.)

    I like the font, too. It looks better.

    I've almost forgotten how the game was pre-patch, as I've spent hours in the beta testing. I know for sure that I don't want to go back to the way things were!

    AI finally doesn't make NPCs with ranged weapons run into melee anymore.

    Yay! Maybe I'll actually turn the AI on at times now.
    I found out when I accidentally forgot to turn it off.

    Forgot, I also like the display of damage in the inventory.

    The increased use of "rare selection" and generally more diversity with banters. So far, I still miss "evil to evil compliment use (other than Shar-Teel and Viconia)", but I have hope.

    There's a lot of things to choose from, the patch is a tremendous improvement but

    Custom portraits only require 1 picture now!!!
    :-)

    is soooo sweet seeing as I keep fiddling with custom portraits. A lot less cropping and resizing for me now! Also a cleaner list seeing as I can delete a whole bunch of files that are now redundant.

    Anyone had a look at the sound sets yet btw? Are we still stuck having to rename stuff CustomX or whatever there?

    Yeah, I love the new colors. Imoen looks great!

    I actually preferred her previous "new colour" even though it wasn't all that accurate. Ah well.

    Sadly, it seems so. The patch wiped my (luckily backed up) custom sounds and I took the chance to try things out when re-adding them. No change on that front.

    Shame. Maybe in a later patch then. 1.2 is still pretty damn amazing though!

    It's so purdy :3

    I do like how the info tab in the bottom center (the one with all the dialogue and stuff) is transparent.
