The BG2 Fixpack is a WeiDU compilation of fixes for Baldur's Gate II. With the disappearance of Kevin Dorner and the cessation of activity of the Baldurdash fixpack for BG2, several modders began working on a new WeiDU fixpack to address the numerous bugs that have been identified since Baldurdash. This collaborative effort, including the work of modders from several different modding communities and assistance from BG2 lead writer David Gaider, has resulted in a fixpack that currently includes all of the fixes addressed by Baldurdash (including the Game Text Update) and several hundred new bugfixes. The project is ongoing, and we're working through a substantial list of bugs culled from various sites, the old Baldurdash forums, and our own research.

Though the project has now left beta behind, there remains a need to introduce and test new fixes. To facilitate these new fixes without compromising the stability of the project, a component entitled BETA Core Fixes is available. This component includes fixes intended for the Core Fixes component and tested in a limited fashion, but have not yet been tested 'in the wild' or with other mods. As such, this component is considered to be of a BETA status. As fixes in this component get tested and validated in the wild, they will move into the Core Fixes.

The BG2 Fixpack strives for complete transparency in its fixes. As such, complete documentation is available of the fixes on the project pages, visual fixes are noted in the BG2 Fixpack Gallery, and all discussions leading up to fixes are in the Fixpack forums. There are no private workrooms.

The Fixpack is designed to work with Baldur's Gate II with or without the Throne of Bhaal expansion pack. In terms of installation order, the Fixpack should be installed after the official patches, but before other mods. Do not install the Fixpack alongside other fixpacks such as Baldurdash. There is a compatibility and redundancy thread in the Fixpack forums for the most recent information; these are the known incompatibilities and redundancies as of v10:

• Baldurdash or any other previous fixpack - We used the bug lists from previous efforts to fix bugs as a starting point. If the bugs aren't already fixed by the Fixpack they will be in future versions. Installing Baldurdash alongside Fixpack will result in a lot of issues.
• Tutu - The BG2 Fixpack is not built for installation on Tutu games. Macready's Easytutu has incorporated several relevant fixes from Fixpack; for traditional Tutu games there will likely be installation errors that prevent installation of the Fixpack.
• D0Tweak - The 'Corrected Demon Animations' component is included in the core fixes. 'Corrected Summoned Demon Behavior' and 'Ghrey's Holy Symbol Fix' are included as Optional But Cool components.
• Ease of Use - Ease of Use is deprecated by the more modern (and actively supported) BG2 Tweaks. If you insist, however, note that the Edwina Portrait component from Ease of Use will overwrite our Edwin/Edwina 'gliding animation' fixes. This is not the case with the same component from BG2 Tweaks.
• LuvNalia - Sir Billy Bob's repackaged Nalia romance will report errors when trying to patch ar2904.bcs. These are non-fatal errors.
• Oversight - The 'Alignment Corrections' component was used as a basis for the alignment changes in BG2 Fixpack, making them semi-redundant. 'Improved Continuity' is included except for the Saemon Havarian bits; it should be safe to install if you want to get the extra Saemon material.
• Quest Pack - The Revised Hell Trials component will generate warnings if the OBC Additional Script Fixes component from Fixpack is installed. A workaround is available.
• The Bigg Tweak Pack- The Unlimited Limited Wish and Wish component is included in the core fixes.

Windows
The BG2 Fixpack is packaged and installed with WeiDU and is distributed as a self-extracting archive. To install, simply double-click the archive and follow the instructions on screen.

Alternatively the files can be extracted from the archive using WinRAR. If properly extracted, you should have a bg2fixpack folder and setup-bg2fixpack.exe in your BG2 folder. To install, simply double-click setup-bg2fixpack.exe and follow the instructions on screen.

Please run setup-bg2fixpack.exe in your BG2 folder to reinstall, uninstall or otherwise change components.

Mac OS X
If the mod was previously installed, uninstall it before extracting the new version. The BG2 Fixpack is packaged and installed with WeiDU. To install, simply extract the contents of the mod into your BG2 folder. If properly extracted, you should have a bg2fixpack folder, setup-bg2fixpack, and setup-bg2fixpack.command in your BG2 folder. To install, simply double-click Setup-bg2fixpack.command and follow the instructions on screen.

Linux
Download the latest version of WeiDU for Linux from weidu.org and extract (at least) the WeiDU, weinstall and tolower executables in a $PATH directory (E.G. /usr/bin). Following that, open a terminal, cd to your BG2 installation directory, run `tolower' and answer Y to both queries.

You can avoid running the second option (linux.ini) if you've already ran it once in the same directory. To save time, the archive is already tolowered, so there's no need to run the first option (lowercasing file names) either if you've extracted only this mod since the last time you lower cased file name. If you're unsure, running tolower and choosing both options is the safe bet.

After that, run 'weinstall bg2fixpack' from your game installation directory to install or uninstall the mod.

The BG2 Fixpack is basically four items: core fixes, a game text update, beta core fixes, and several optional but cool fixes. Optional But Cool is broken down further into individual components.

BG2 Fixpack (Core Fixes)
This component includes all fixes deemed to be core by the Fixpack team. While some bugs are clearly bugs, the team also has a review process for 'gray area' bugs to insure that fixes do not contradict developer intent. The result is a 'core fixes' component which aims to address true bugs only and in a manner consistent with BioWare's original goals. When we encounter something we happen to think is a bug (or just strange behavior) but appears to be intentional, we generally fix those as an Optional But Cool component. Complete documentation is available on the G3 web site. Additionally, the complete Fixpack forums are open, so if you want to see the reasoning behind a bugfix (or tell us we've got it all wrong), please join us on the forums and provide feedback. If you find a bug that is not fixed and is not in our Pending Fixes forum, please report it.

Game Text Update
English Only
This component, based upon the Baldurdash Game Text Update, seeks to address miscellaneous errors in the text. Typos, grammatical errors, item description inconsistencies, etc. are addressed by this component. It should be noted that incorrect text that is actually a bug is addressed by Core Fixes. The Game Text Update can be installed in two ways. The first (and recommended) option will install "GTU Light" (by Wisp), a fairly minimalistic dialogue update which contains only the most relevant typographical corrections. The second option will install "GTU Classic" (from Baldurdash, by Kevin Dorner), an in-depth dialogue revision, parts of which may be considered arbitrary by purists.

Super Happy Fun Lucky Modder Pack
This component has been discontinued due to lack of interest.

BETA Core Fixes
Though the Fixpack has long since left beta, new fixes still need to be added. This component includes fixes intended for the Core Fixes component and tested in a limited fashion, but have not yet been tested 'in the wild' or with other mods. As such, this component is considered to be of a BETA status. As fixes in this component get tested and validated in the wild, they will move into the Core Fixes. These fixes are shown in red on the documentation page.

Optional But Cool: Party Gets XP for Sending Keldorn to Reconcile With Maria
In Keldorn's personal quest, if you go with Keldorn when he reconciles with Maria the party receives XP. However, if you send him alone to reconcile you do not--this component gives you XP for sending him alone to reconcile.

Optional But Cool: Improved Spell Animations
This component alters the animations of several spells, including Maze, by addressing subtle errors in their animation cycles.

Optional But Cool: Cromwell's Forging Actually Takes a Day
When Cromwell forges an item for the party, he says it will take a day but no actual time passes. This component changes the upgrades to actually take a day.

Optional But Cool: Mixed-Use Dagger Fixes
Daggers that can be used in melee and thrown are an irresolvable bug: when thrown, daggers should get an extra attack per round, but there's no way to apply this bonus without also granting it when he dagger is being used in melee. This component grants the extra attack but at the expense of removing melee abilities.

Optional But Cool: Ghreyfain's Holy Symbol Fixes
Basically, it makes the granting of Holy Symbols in the game a bit more logical. Aerie gets the symbol of Baervan, Viconia gets the symbol of Shar, and Anomen gains the symbol of Helm even when lawful good (he used to get Lathander's).

Optional But Cool: Additional Hero Quests in Trademeet Wait Until Hero is Officially Named (DEPRECATED)
This was confirmed by BioWare as an actual bug and has been moved into the core fixes.

Optional But Cool: Giants Receive Penalties When Attacking Halflings, Dwarves, and Gnomes
This component gives giants their P&P penalty when trying to attack undersized (halflings, dwarves, gnomes) foes.

Optional But Cool: Remove Dual-Classing Restriction from Archers and Stalkers
In Throne of Bhaal, archers and stalkers can't dual-class to clerics as normal rangers and beastmasters can; for consistency Core Fixes adds this restriction to SoA-only games as well. This component will remove the restriction.

Optional But Cool: Remove Second Attribute Bonus for Evil Path in Wrath Hell Trial
If the protagonist selects the 'evil' option when speaking to Sarevok in the Hell Trials, the PC gets rewarded twice with attribute bonuses. There are several factors that suggest one of the bonuses is leftover junk in the script, but there's not enough evidence of developer intent to include it in the Core Fixes.

Optional But Cool: Corrected Summoned Demon Behavior
This component alters the AI of summoned demons, causing them to behave less predictably, but at the same time, more realistically (i.e. Baatezu will attack Tanar'ri).

Optional But Cool: Additional Script Fixes
There are several additional scripting errors which can't be fixed by the core fixes. While clearly bugs, what was intended by the developers is more towards speculation and, as such, these fixes have been moved into their own component. Most of the bugs are missing checks in spellcaster scripts for memorized spells (or casting spells). A more detailed account of the changes can be found in the full Optional But Cool documentation.

Optional But Cool: Bard Song Fixes
The manual describes bard's Battlesong as granting "morale and luck improvement for the party." And then goes on to describe a luck bonus for the party as though it were a luck penalty for opponents. And then in-game battlesong grants only immunity to fear (without preventing the additional effects that can accompany fear) with no morale or luck effects at all. Our best educated guess at developer intent adds a +1 luck bonus to battlesong, which improves to +2 at 15th level and improves again to +3 at 20th level. Blade's version of battlesong in this component still does not improve with levels (as the class disadvantage states) and Skald and Jester songs (which already vaguely match their descriptions and work) are untouched.

Optional But Cool: Wizard Slayers Cause Miscast Magic on Ranged Attacks
The original kit description of the Wizard Slayer states as a kit advantage: "For each successful hit on an opponent, 10% cumulative spell failure penalty is applied". However, it was only applying this effect on melee hits. The Core Fixes do not change this and the Game Text Update clarifies the kit description to specify melee-only. This component allows players to extend the ability to both melee and ranged attacks and updates the kit description.

Optional But Cool: Additional Alignment Fixes
As part of the Core Fixes, the Fixpack addresses many creatures who either lack alignment, have conflicting alignments between their creature files, or have an alignment completely at odds with their behavior. These changes underwent a great deal of scrutiny in an organized review, and it was decided that some of them should be moved into an optional component as there was no general consensus for the new alignments of these specific creatures.

Optional But Cool: Change Free Action to Protect Against Stun
BioWare was very inconsistent about whether free action should protect against stun or not. The spell did not protect against it, but most items that grant free action did. However, per David Gaider, free action is not supposed to protect against stun. For players who think this overpowers stun (particularly mind flayer psionics) this component will extend free action to protect against stun.

Optional But Cool: Paws from Shapeshifting Can Not Be Dispelled
Windows-only, requires TobEx
Dispel magic will no longer remove the paws of shapeshifted creatures.

Optional But Cool: Remove Thieving Start Bonuses from Bard and Ranger Skills
All thieving skills use one lookup table to determine their racial bonuses for their abilities. However, the table is actually a combination of racial bonuses and initial thieving abilities. This component seeks to remove the initial thief bonuses from non-thief classes. Specifically, bards will no longer receive a 15% bonus to their pickpocket skills, and rangers will not receive the 7% bonus to stealth.

The Fixpack is the hard work of many authors. For issues, suggestions and general feedback, the Fixpack forums are the best resource. Visit the Gibberlings Three Forums for information on this and any other Gibberlings Three mods on which we may be working.

The Fixpack would not be possible without the hard work of many, many people. There's no way to try and acknowledge this many people without missing someone, so if you've been left off please let us know so you can be properly acknowledged.

First, thanks to the entire Fixpack Team: Andyr, aVENGER, BigRob, Caedwyr, CamDawg, cirerrek, devSin, drake127, Ghreyfain, Grim Squeaker, hlidskialf, icelus, Idobek, igi, Kish, Loriel, Macready, NiGHTMARE, Nythrun, Rastor, SConrad, SimDing0, the bigg, Wisp, and yarpen.

Thanks to our alpha testers as well: afireinside, Aragorn II, Da_venom, Diana, DirtyAlex, discharger12, Drew, Evilyn, Falco, I. Rahn Maedin, Jyzabyl, Kanain, Kazey, Nim, Rubel, Sir-Kill, TinyMage, and Wounded_Lion.

Thanks to modders who had made previous forays into fixpacks, as well as modders who were kind enough to provide bug lists and/or complete fixes: aVENGER, CamDawg, Dyara, Extremist, FredSRichardson, Ghreyfain, Idobek, Igenous, japheth, jastey, jcompton, Kevin Dorner, King Diamond, Kish, Littiz, Miloch, plainab, Roana, Sabre, Salk, SimDing0, the bigg, Wes Weimer, Wisp and WizWom.

Finally, we'd like to thank even more folks, who may or may not fit well into the categories above: ababab, Anomaly, AnonymousHero, Ardanis, Ascendancy-Down, Azazello, Baronius, berelinde, Bex, blubid_boy, Blucher, Brett Frazier, cameltoe, Capt Massacre, Chev, clarient, cmorgan, cvieor, Daulmakan, DavidW, Domi, dragonian, erebusant, erik, ecoris, frabjous, G-Mon, Gorilym, Gort, Iroquois, Immortality, Jadefang, jester, John, kix, Kulyok, Luiz, Margrave, Meddle, mossgerila, Naleem, pro5, Qwinn, Rabain, Revy, Riveira, ronin69hof, russoc4, s w raly, s4r3v0k, seanas, shaitan, Sir Alexander, Six of Spades, Smoketest, steve, sturmvogel, temujin, TimesofTrouble, Topaze, truper, tz2z, web2air, Weigo, and ZFR.

In addition, there are a couple of folks we would like to single out for acknowledgement:

• David Gaider: Officially credited as a member of the 'core design team' for BG2, David's probably better described as the head writer. David was kind enough to answer questions regarding developer intent with respect to several fixes.
• devSin: An excellent right-hand man, whose intimate knowledge of arcane engine details helped us identify and solve a huge number of bugs.
• Nythrun: An angel who's come out of nowhere to help with just about everything.
• DavidW, Wisp & aVENGER: These three stepped in after much of the original team had moved on, and led the project through four additional releases
• Wes Weimer and the bigg: Such an effort wouldn't even be possible without a tool like WeiDU. In particular, the new patching abilities of the last 20-30 versions have made a huge number of really nifty things possible.
• Kish and SimDing0: Often the two counterpoints to determining what needed to be fixed and how, their input was invaluable.
• Kevin Dorner: We tried to recruit Kevin for the project but never got a response. Nonetheless, the bug list (both fixed and pending) from Baldurdash was a huge aid when we developed our own fixes.
• igi and the IESDP contributors: The IESDP was invaluable for a project of this scope. igi, as the maintainer, and the various IESDP contributors also deserve credit.

Thanks as well to yarpen for the Polish translation, Leonardo Watson for the German translation, Immortality and Clan DLAN (with revisions from Ghildrean) for the Spanish translation, Anomaly for the French translation, web2air for the Korean translation, Andrea C. for the Italian translation, and good0593 for the Chinese translations.

Versions 7-8 of the Fixpack were coded by DavidW, in consultation with devSin and using code and observations by Nythrun, aVENGER, Taimon, Wisp, ScuD, Icendoan and Mike1072. Version 9 was coded by aVENGER, in consultation with devSin, using code and observations by Nythrun, Wisp and Jason Compton. Version 10 is primarily an aVENGER-Wisp-CamDawg project, with the usual assistance from the folks on the Fixpack forums.

The modding community for the Infinity Engine has been going strong for more than 10 years now, and is the culmination of thousands of unpaid modding hours by fellow fans of the game. Modders produce their best work and players get the best, well-supported mods when we all work together.

There are two big ways to upset this harmony. One is to claim someone else's work as your own. The second is to host and redistribute a mod without permission from the author(s).

Be kind to your fellow players and modders. Don't do either.

  • Core Fixes and BETA Core Fixes have been combined into a single document

  • Fixes from v9 were never documented
• The following changes were made to the Core Fixes component:

  • Non-magical innate abilities (Barbarian Rage, Berserker Enrage, Druidic Shapeshifting...) are no longer affected by Wild Magic and Dead Magic zones
  • The Mirror Image cast by Ilbratha +1 and the Improved Invisibility cast by the Ring of Air Control are now susceptible to spells which remove illusionary protections

  • The map note for the Western Tunnels in the Underdark area is no longer placed over inaccessible terrain

Version 8 - February 20, 2009

• French and Italian translations updated.
• Basically-harmless typo in the Barbarian Rage code fixed
• "Deutsche" should apparently be "Deutsch"
• Updated to WEIDU v210

Version 7 - December 29, 2008

• Corrected Minor Globe of Invulnerability description is no longer pasted onto Know Alignment.
• Shriekers, Blue Myconids, and Carrion Crawlers were missing the resources giving them their proper sound sets; there were several errors with the chicken soundset also which are now correctly corrected.
• The game engine unfortunately will play at most two sound selections per category; our previous attempts to restore existing but unused sounds for a few monsters accomplished nothing and have been revoked. This is a Core Fix.
• An old bug in a WeiDU patch was causing corrections to the game's climactic battle music to go haywire. This bug has been corrected; the battle theme now loops properly.
• In the Copper Coronet, a pair of trash talking louts were supposed to flee if any real violence took place, but their scripting was corrupt. We now correct an additional way in which their script may be broken.
• An earlier attempt to fix the broken usage of the "Damage Versus Type" opcode was having unforeseen consequences with other mods and was not being consistently applied; we now supply a new .eff file and apply it in every case.
• The casting time of innate Cure Light Wounds, Draw Upon Holy Might, and Horror were being altered to match the ordinary spells of the same names. In the absence of convincing developer intent, these fixes have been dropped.
• Aataqah's spelling error, Dermin's gender confusion, and Holy Word's incomplete description are corrected.
• Holy Smite wasn't correctly displaying the "Blinded" string (code by aVENGER)
• Small typo corrected in code for chant doesn't provide the listed save bonuses nor the penalties to opponents. Also shouldn't stack. (code by ScuD)
• The Mace of Disruption +2 is no longer being nerfed (code by aVENGER)
• A typo in an earlier correction to Barbarian Rage meant that fix wasn't working correctly; this is fixed. (code by Wisp)
• Halberd Flagged as Stolen really is compatible with More Than One Copy of Unique Items Can Be Obtained now. (code by Wisp)
• The "Harper's Call" spell now correctly reduces Jaheira's ability scores (previously, due to a v6 typo, it was making them negative). (spotted by Mike1072, code by DavidW)
• Since the Grandmaster Armor is specifically described as not usable by monks, we revert to not making it usable. (code by Wisp)
• The OBC component which gives Burning Hands an area effect was erroneously increasing its duration.
• Typo corrected in GTU string @1048658
• German and Spanish translations updated
• The following fixes were added to BETA Core Fixes:
  • Tolgerias vanishes repeatedly (spotted by Jastey, code by DavidW)
  • Ployer can kill Jaheira (observed and originally coded by Icendoan, this code by DavidW)
  • Dirbert is too picky about his swords (code by Icendoan, slightly tweaked by DavidW)
  • Sword of Seeking does incorrect damage (code by Wisp)

Version 6 - January 31, 2008

• Incapacitated Solaufein Breaks Ust Natha Quests in BETA Core Fixes had a nasty bug that actually broke this segment, hence the early and rapid appearance of v6
• Rolled back Horn of Kazgaroth Has Only One Charge if Imported as it was unnecessary
• Adjusted code for Fixed Bug That Prevents Saving Games (OS X Only) fix so that it works better
• The left side of the bounding box for the fixed Door in de'Arnise Keep is Offset From Actual Door was off slightly and has been fixed
• Magical bullets were no longer being blocked by Protection from Normal Missiles in the Protection From Normal Missiles Protecting Against Some Magical Missiles fix, but they should still be set to a different projectile
• Dropped two creatures from the Gender Fixes
• Elhan's Elves Turning Hostile (And Not) Inappropriately was overriding the wrong scripts
• Weapon Proficiencies Maximum and Minimum Fixes was throttling paladins to two stars in dual-wielding

Version 5 - January 28, 2008

• Recoded several dialogue fixes to be nicer with other mods. Specifically, the Slave Leader in Ust Natha 'No Valid Links' Dialogue Fix and Captain Arat Gives Infinite Fire Arrows should resolve current issues
• Fixed two bugs with Elven War Sages Sporadically Helping Party with Vampirism Cure in BETA Core Fixes
• Changed the handling of Telwyn in the Pickpocket Exploits fix
• Removed deva and planetar changes from the Creature Gender Fixes as this was effectively removing the celestial summoning cap
• Dropped the Offhand Weapons Could Provide Unintended Bonuses to Main Hand Weapon and Vice-Versa fix as it was not working as intended. This remains an outstanding issue for now
• New research showed that an opcode that provided damage bonuses against certain creature types was not fully working; this affects the Mace of Disruption, Daystar, and the Dragonslayer +2. The Improved Mace of Disruption Fixes was renamed to Maces of Disruption Fixes and expanded to address these new bugs found in the engine. New fixes for Daystar and Dragonslayer are introduced in the BETA Core Fixes
• Cleaned up code in Casting Spells from Scroll Fixes (though this was not affecting anything)
• Fixed bug with Immunities Don't Suppress All Effects where it was still allowing portrait icons to be placed on Imoen while wearing her über-belt in the opening dungeon
• Fixed unintended consequence of Immunities Don't Suppress All Effects, specifically with respect to poison. By making items and creatures fully immune to poison, we also made them immune to disease (which does poison damage). Only a handful of items were actually meant to convey immunity to both poison and disease, so the items affected by the patch have been scaled back. Also made sure that poison display strings were also suppressed.
• Fixed another unintended consequence of Immunities Don't Suppress All Effects, specifically with respect to web. This was making the Watcher's Keep statues immune to the effect that kept them frozen so, while they were inactive, they would still animate and sway in place
• Expanded Optional But Cool: Improved Spell Animations to include a nifty change for Burning Hands from Nythrun; the spell now is area of effect per its description instead of only affecting one target
• Fixed bug with Optional But Cool: Giants Receive Penalties When Attacking Halflings, Dwarves, and Gnomes where it was screwing up item indexes, causing issues for OS X players
• Several Errors With Familiars was essentially rebuilt from the ground up
• Rolled back a few BG creature patches in Creatures With Items Not Equipped as they were, at best, spurious and, at worst, interfering with BGT games
• Expansion of the Dispel/Remove Magic Generating Spurious Magic Resistance Message review turned up similar errors in the existing Staff of the Magi Errors and Carsomyr Issues fixes
• Further tightened Simulacrum Restoration Exploit
• Friends Fixes was partially rolled back and Comet Duration Fixes was fully rolled back as the engine has problems with sometimes applying spell effects with staggered probabilities
• Touched up some Immunities Don't Suppress All Effects patches, specifically Free Action, to remove more leftover stun protection opcodes
• Expanded Optional But Cool: Additional Script Fixes to assign additional scripts to commoners so they would go hostile and run away if attacked by the party
• Optional But Cool: Change Free Action to Protect Against Stun expanded to protect against additional complementary stun effects
• Renamed Chosen of Cyric Weapon Not Displaying Portrait Icon or String fix to Weapon of Cyric's Favored Not Displaying Portrait Icon or String, as they're really named Favored and not Chosen
• Reworked Otiluke's Resilient Sphere Fixes, as it was still far from complete
• Reworked Option to Charm Glaicas Instead of Fight Fix and Troll Fixes to remove incompatibilities with Unfinished Business
• Added Spotty Golem Immunities fix directly into Core Fixes, as it's essentially an adaptation of existing (and working code)
• Halberd Flagged as Stolen was not accounting for the item change from More Than One Copy of Unique Items Can Be Obtained and was thus failing
• Miscellaneous changes and fixes to the Game Text Update
• The following fixes were expanded/updated to fix more bugs:
  • Strings
  • Draining Spells Healing Caster Even if Target Magic-Resistant

Version 4 - July 4, 2007

• Paws from Shapeshifting Can Not Be Dispelled was causing crashes on some systems when encountering iron or adamantine golems; the component has been withdrawn until a new fix is implemented
• Dropped the Nishruus and Hakeashars Eating Non-Magical Items fix. In Throne of Bhaal, the opcodes responsible for this bug have been disabled with the official patch. In Shadows of Amn, the bug is unfixable. The component has been moved to the Super Happy Fun Lucky Modder Pack and renamed Clean Up Leftover Default(0) Headers as it does clean up a lot of extraneous junk from a number of item files.
• Dropped the Yoshimo and Korgan Don't Recognize Gaelan's Changed Offer fix from BETA Core Fixes; after some discussion this was dropped over concerns this was a slippery slope fix and would be a gateway to dubious fixes

• Improved Invisibility Fixes was completely reworked as it was preventing legitimate re-casting of the spell. The new fix remains non-perfect but still a significant improvement over the patched game.
• Strength Spell Stacks Exceptional Strength from BETA Core Fixes dropped as it was causing the spell to not act per its description; exploit is now fixed by adding Strength to the Many Spells Should Not Be Able To Stack With Themselves fix in Core Fixes
• The post-patch scripts in the Player AI Scripting Errors fix were tightened up
• Terrece Initiates Dialogue From Another Area fix expanded and renamed Terrece Spawn Errors
• Fix for the good deva in the Devas Using Wrong Script, Spell Errors was reworked; WeiDU itself has a bug here that was worked around
• Part of the Killer Mimic Issues fix in BETA Core Fixes was redundant and was dropped
• Kensais Not Receiving Their Weapon Speed Bonuses in the BETA Core Fixes expanded to include monks and renamed Kensais and Monks Not Receiving Their Weapon Speed Bonuses

These two also partially deprecate other fixes: Grease Fixes, Armor Fixes, Hold Animal Errors. Several spells have been added to both fixes.

• Grae the Troll Can Be Accidentally Killed fix renamed to Limited Wish Quest Fixes and expanded with an additional fix to Vittorio's dialogue

Version 1 - November 8, 2006

• With the end of the beta series, a new component entitled BETA Core Fixes has been added. This component consists of fixes intended for Core Fixes, but have yet to be tested 'in the wild'. Fixes will eventually pass from this component to the Core Fixes component after they've been sufficiently tested
• Added new OBC component Wizard Slayers Cause Miscast Magic on Ranged Attacks
• Additional Entries for Spellcasting Scripts fix has now been rolled into the Add Throne of Bhaal Scripting Abilities to Shadows of Amn Games
• Azuredge Axe Corrupted, Other Errors fix has been redone to bring the axe more in line with developer intent
• Shadows of Amn Worldmap Fixes was causing the Drizzt 'random encounter' to occur more than once when leaving the Underdark Exit area
• Delon Not Always Adding Umar Hills to the Map fix expanded and renamed Delon Fixes
• Corrected errors in the Incorrect Party Orientation When Entering Areas fix
• The ToB rabbit familiar was not getting its correct melee item in the Several Errors With Familiars fix
• Has no effect in game, but null string references are now referencing 0xffffffff by request
• The Potion of Freedom had many more errors than originally thought, so the fix has been expanded to cover all of the new discoveries. The fix is renamed from the Potion of Free Action Errors to Potion of Freedom Errors to reflect the name in game.
• Updated Staff of the Magi Errors fix to address several effects that were subject to dispel magic and shouldn't be
• Revamped the OBC Bard Song Fixes component
• When used with Melf's Minute Meteors, a blade's Offensive Spin could cause the attacks per round to drop to 0.5 due to an overflow issue in the engine. As a workaround, blades can no longer cast Offensive Spin when wielding Minute Meteors.
• Unseeing Eye XP Exploit, Quest Breakage now includes ar0701.bcs fixes. The issue addressed shouldn't even be possible, but was definitely occurring
• The Corrupted Scripts fix was not quite uncorrupting the scripts
