Artificial Sunlight casts False Dawn

in New Members Welcome Area
I'm not exactly a new member but when I came to the forums in the beginning there was no New Members area.

I am Rick from the Netherlands (u know in Europe). Born in the year of the Chernobyl disaster. I own BG since 1998/1999 (it was in a Game bundle on our Packard Bell PC, single DVD Version) but my English was not good enough. So killing tutors and dying a lot in Candlekeep. After a year I got it, and hacked my fighter to Baldur’s Gate.

When BG 2 was released I got it on my birthday or Sinterklaas ( http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas ) with the book Temple Hill as added bonus (I was hoping to get a guide as added book). I played around a bit, and started over from Candlekeep al the way through Hell and back to ascend to godhood.

This also triggered my addiction for Forgotten Realms Novels (I own about 260 novels, and some lore books mostly about Elf’s and the Deity’s ) I also have all the old comics, 750 2e adnd trading cards, Spelljammer novels.

The gaming continued so:
- I solo’d NWN (and expansions), the NPC’s where to bad to team up.
- I rushed trough BG:DA
- Started, but never came far in IWD and IWD2
- I am half way in NWN2

Now I’m am about to go to the Naskel Mines on my first non-good, first real BG:EE playtrough. So I am not going fast :P

I am working on 3 mod’s because I can do it in the quiet hours at work (I am a programmer, in the Chemical Industry, Petrol, Plastics etc.)

    Hello, Rick!

    You're an established member of the community already, I think, but still it's nice to welcome you :)

    @Anduin And that was before you knew that in my current playthrough I'm playing a Female Gnome Thief/Cleric of Urdlen.
