Exciting news!

Patch 3.1 for Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition is coming soon! To prepare, the Beamdog team has just updated the Beamdog Client with a few new, exciting features. Read the details on our blog:

http://blog.beamdog.com/2017/05/beamdog-client-update-physical-enhanced.html

You've been waiting for it for so long! Now, the wait is over.



To celebrate the new Beamdog Client feature allowing physical Enhanced Edition updates, we’re giving away a few boxed copies of the Enhanced Editions.

Tell us in five words how you start your roleplaying adventure (in Baldur's Gate, in Icewind Dale, in Planescape: Torment - it doesn't matter, tell about one game, about each of them, or even about D&D - you decide). Include a .gif or picture for bonus points! We’ll pick one favorite on May 18 around 1pm PDT to receive their choice of one of these boxed Enhanced Editions!

Make sure to also enter on Twitter and Facebook to min/max your chances of winning!

To participate in the contest, you can post as many times as you want.

Game on!

    "their" is used in a respectful way.

    I know I'm a bit late but here goes anyhow. I play D&D with some old-time gamers with first edition handbooks, etc, played in Lake Geneva in the 70s. . . When we start a new game/character/adventure I also create that character in BG with the same stats & see how it goes. I learn something with both games.

    @JuliusBorisov
    Images at this link are gone. Any chance to restore them?
    (This topic is still alive - today I received a request from an Italian player asking how to update his BG2EE retail game).
  • JuliusBorisovJuliusBorisov Member, Administrator, Moderator, Developer Posts: 22,754
    It's impossible to restore those images, sadly.

    Log onto the Beamdog Client and use the “Redeem Physical Copy” button on the game page to get started. Once done, games added to your Beamdog account in this way can be downloaded and updated through the Beamdog Client on any supported platform.

    Thanks for the reply - I know how to update the retail games; it is just that the images help a lot players who do not speak English.
