This mod lets you add or replace custom premade parties when starting a new game. This is actually 2 mods. I split off IWD2 into its own mod to keep the folders cleaner. This also makes it less confusing, since the installer options are organized differently.
Usage is similar for both mods. The mod folders contain several party folders (party1, party2, etc.). Put your CHR files in one of the folders, plus optionally custom biography and/or portrait files. Then run the installer and select the party to install.
Biographies are just text files with a different extension (.BIO for EEs and .RES for IWD2). Characters will get the generic biography from Black Pits 2 if they don't have a custom one.
Game-specific info:
For IWDEE and Black Pits 1&2, this will replace the premade parties, as well as make the characters importable if not already. There's also an option to remove the default parties without adding a new one, so you start with just the "Create" buttons. This will also fix the bug in IWDEE, which causes imported characters to start with the BG2 biography.
For IWD2, it adds up to 5 premade parties to the list, and you also have the option of removing any existing parties. Party name and both the top and bottom party descriptions are customizable (by editing files in the party folders). As with the EE mod, characters are added to the Import list if they weren't already on it. Note that the party info on the selection screen currently only shows unmodded Skill/Feat names.
Full details in the readme files or GitHub pages.
