    [​IMG] I cannot garantee that it will work with BGtutu, because its installer is not weidu-based; it is IAPSFX with TBG files.

    [EDIT 22.10.2003]
    I have learnt that the type of installer does not count in case of BGtutu, however, I have been advised to create weidu-installer.
    So Deathrabbit, you are welcome as a tester if you decide so.

    So what do you need? I think it's obvious from your site that TotSC is needed, but is there any patches, mods or anything else you need to play it? I'm gonna go out and buy a new copy of BG1 and TotSC (mine got all scratched and doesn't work anymore).

    Also, how much time is needed to test this mod? How much gameplay is added, and what does this mod add to BG1? Does it add areas? Weapons? Quests? How big is it? When do you expect it to be finished?

    More info please.

    Sorry - I'd like to and it sounds like fun, but I try to avoid anything from Team BG like the plague. Best of luck, though - sounds fun.

    A Tester Guide or something like that will be released, and details about the mod can be seen in the site soon.

    Finally, yet another reason to reinstall BG1.
    If needed, count me in Baronius.

    It is not really lucky, because you might be able to install the mod, however, the dialogs and all text (which is in English) won't be magically translated to French.

    I didn't exept the text to be translated magicaly. However I really don't care either it will just be weird to have french voice and text/item and everything of the original BG and English for the rest. Count me in!

    That is great. The Closed Beta of the mod will be downloadable for testers in a few days probably.
