Did anyone else notice the bug in the 2.5 beta added (wasn't there before beta installed) where the cast spell mouse pointer icon doesn't show properly when you cast on the portraits on the right side of the screen? Instead of changing to the cast spell icon when hovering over a portrait after selecting a spell, you just get the circle with bar through it or the move view arrow.
I've noticed that when you start a new game, the scrolling candlekeep text briefly flashes before starting to scroll again. Tested on Android. I assume this happens for all chapter transitions. That wasn't happening in 1.3

that bug is already reported and fixed in a newer patch version (2.5.12).
@Doubledimas You guess? Dose it mean we didn't see these two features to be available within the 2.5 Beta, is that right?
I guess because I did not play the IWD 2.5 beta, but as those features are features that appeared in the v2+ codebase it warrants to think that they would be included in the 2.5 patch for IWD.
I've played some 200 hours recently of BG/SoD/BG2 using the EET mod, and I get frequent crashes. Usually it happens when I use the right-click-to-move function, and I swing the formation around while holding the right mouse button. The icon switches to an "interact" icon for some reason and then when I release the button the game crashes. The game also crashes without doing that but I guess I chalk some of that up to using mods with BWS.

Make sure to test it when the part 2 of the beta comes, @Fluent. Also, everyone, if you feel there's a pattern (or even if there's no pattern) for crashing, please, report each of them on support.baldursgate.com.
@JuliusBorisov - Is Part 2 of the beta going to include SoD?
No.
I don't understand. I always believe SOD includes BG1, if I update the 2.5 patch on the base of 2.3, dose it means when I switch to BG1 I play the 2.5, and when I switch to SOD I play the 2.3?

I assume Beamdog is testing SoD with patch 2.5 in private for... reasons. When 2.5 is released, it will support SoD. For now, testers of the public beta can only play BG1EE, BG2EE, and IWDEE.
How can I access newer betas? Bug #32537 got fixed in v2.5.30, but I'm still on v2.5.10?
It is fixed in v2.5.3. (not .30) which means it should also be fixed in the beta as that is v2.5.10. There is no newer beta available (newest game version in which bugs are reportedly fixed is v2.5.12.11)
Comments
May I ask whether the 2.5 patch for IWD would include the following features?
1. Sprite outlines;
2. Equipt bow and shield at the same time;
3. Customizable Scrolling keys.
Note that while you can map keys to these options, you cannot unmap the arrow keys from these options (in this beta version).
@Thels That would be quiet of excellent, thank you.
Attach all the crash dumps to reports.
