Don't know if @fluke13 is anymore working on this or in any way active with BG modding. He has been online on forums about year ago. I will post the whole mod files (the ones I have done, not the ones Fluke had worked on), on the first page.
Wow. When I came back to BG a few years ago I was excited about three mods in development: this, Black Hearts and Skyfire. I had long since given up hope anything would ever come of this.
To be clear, since I have not heard anything about Fluke's progress in years, I thought just to release the files I had done. My work is nowhere near ready. But anyone who wants can take a look and walk around, if curious. Or continue the work, if @fluke13 is out?
There were a couple of people, we all did our best, but this project is/was huge. When I was helping with the project, it was 40% finished, we carried it further, together; then one got absent, then the other one of us had less time, then we wanted to work on it again, and--much time has passed. There was no big drama behind the scenes, just many RL matters that happened at the worst possible time and let's be honest: returning to a mod after a 5 year break is very, very, very difficult. Especially considering how big the plans were.
It's just a shame that we can't access what fluke13 did with it. I enjoyed pottering around in what is available in zanso's github, but if fluke13 really did have the main quest done, that is a sore loss.
I think this is the mod I stumbled upon years ago and was looking forward to trying, but it slipped off my radar and I couldn’t find it again when I remembered it. I vaguely recall the beautiful ship and docks art. Part of me feels oddly satisfied to have finally found it after all these years, like an itch I could never scratch. It’s unfortunate, though, given the state it’s in. The artwork looks stunning. I really hope someone picks it up.
In case anyone is wondering at any point this mod will not go on EET. Neither if it's installed before EET, or after. And no one seems to pick it up, sadly. It's current alpha version is playable, and looks really nice but you can unfinished things everywhere.
