One thing.
"Location" - "Items"
Ring of Wizardry. Haven´t played in a while but I´m pretty sure there is one under that tree right under F.A.I
Dont remember the exact location numbers, but I could check if you wanted.

I dont have to much to do this weekend so I´ll read through it and keep posting things as I remember them if you want


[EDIT]
As I´m reading I see that there is quite some items that are not in the list yet.
I suppose it´s easier to check locations in another guide than playing through the game though. But I suppose it´s tips for strategies and such you´re more interested in than locations?

 

Thank you for your remark about the Ring of Wizardry. I would be most grateful if you sent me the details where it is. Certainly everyone who helps gets fair credit in the final version.
I have known about that ring, but AFAIK a patch removes it. But nevermind, I will mention this too.

As far as this versions is concerned, it is absolutely not complete, a lot of items, descriptions, quotes etc are missing. Much more content will be added until the final version. But the "Read of address" error is the worst thing, this must be fixed somehow. Too bad I do not have much time usually. Summer will be better, but certianly the development will not stop until then either.

 

Sent a PM
I have BG (the five disc verision) and ToTSC installed. Dont know if there is a patch to totsc and if I used it if there is one.
But for me the ring is there. I´ll check what verision I have tomorrow if needed.

 

Thanks, I got the PM.
By the way, do you not get that "Read address..." error ? You haven't mentioned it, so I ask it.

For the TotSC patches, check http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/BG/index_misc.php
Don't download the first one (the bug-fix) patch though.

 

Nope, the Great Book has worked perfect for me so far

I reinstalled everything not to long ago.
And I have this installed:

BG (5 disc)
TotSC (bgtosc_intl patch)
(And the The Gray Clan mod, not that I think that will affect anything.)


Also, I started a game this morning with a F/M/T and I´m doing some serious pickpocketting. So I´ll try to keep track of wands and srolls if that is of interest.
I found a guy with a scroll of flame arrow and haste that I didn´t know of

He is in the Docks area in Baldurs Gate though and by then you should already have those spells, but still

 

I gladly hear (see) that GBBG works fine for you. Sometimes it works properly for me either.

Let's limit this thread to the discussion of GBBG. Since you mentioned that mod, let me share some information here, but no more about it in this thread: Uninstall or remove The Gray Clan from your system, this is strongly recommended for everyone who installed the beta. Its plot breaks early, so the beta is bad for players. The full (and working) version will be released soon.
