Baldur's Gate ... Tutu?!

Greetings and salutations. Today is Tuesday. I hate Tuesday. Especially when I know that when I am going to work tonight I will have to work especially hard because one of our members is calling in sick because he has someting important to do, leaving us only two people for tonight. Great.

Anyway, as you can see, I've found an interesting *MOD* for Baldur's Gate 1, yes, you thought it was dead, but this Baldur's Gate MOD (As per the title) allows you to play the original Baldur's Gate with the Baldur's Gate 2 engine (which contains many tweaks & fixes & upgrades) and run BG1 in the not so nasty higher resolutions. This is important for many reasons. First, BG1 has dated graphics (in 640x480) but when run in the BG2 engine, you can set it up to 1024x768 or even higher if you want, although it looks best in 1024x768 (in my opinion.) So, I am getting use out of an old game once again.

It is minorly buggy that I've noticed, but I can live with that compared to the hours of fun I can re-obtain by playing this old game. It's just a shame there is no Planescape: Torment version of this patch, although maybe with a little digging I can find something of that nature and once more, relive the adventure & excitement and just plain good story-telling of Torment.

Oh well, not much else to say. I can't wait for Naruto 98.

I'll post later (as in later, this week.)

Later
