I have come to know this morning that I passed the exam to enter Scuola Normale Superiore of Pisa (that's one of the best universities in Italy).
This means that my free time-frame will be much smaller, perhaps equal to zero (well, I hope not equal). And, since I have to move in the Uni's college, I don't know how do they treat PC games in their computers, or even if we have only so many computers and will have to share them. So, I am sadly forced to announce that I will be leaving the modding comunity, maybe forever. I will come back sometimes, but won't actively produce anything new.
All the stuff for v2 is on Icelus' mirror, and is 90% untested, so you can download and try it. I also left v1.1.
New to v2 (consider it an unsupported and untested alpha):

Started Adding Stivan the Hunter to the mix. The NPC will work, but is almost silent. He is a CN Halfling thief. Note: I mistakenly hid his part of the readme. You'll have to open readme_files\body.htm (notepad is OK) and delete all instances of <!-- and --> to see the readme correctly. The italian readme isn't up-to-date, so use the english one instead.
WeiDU v161. Among general improvements, bugfixes and whatnot, the STR_CMP function is giving me a HUUUUUUGE help in patching most files. For example, it allows me to modify the items that Stivan is already carrying without having to copy directly the creature.
Include Scriptable Spells, sometimes uses Detectable Spells... Kudos to Cirrerek for permission.
Italian Translation, by BifMadeinSabioli. (Stivan & Mazzy are still in English: former because not translated, latter because totally changed)

Mazzy the Paladin: these are Ronny Mo induced changes:
- Now Mazzy's portrait will update correctly.
- Major dialogue enhancing in the quest (remove stupid meta-content in favor of pragmatic dialogues, complete rewriting of Lich's sequence, some bug-fixes).
- You can't kill an idle Terrasque before talking to the Lich.
- Will update Mazzy's in-party dialogue and all (EG interjections, banters and watnot). (only partly done)

Other revamps to MtP, self-inducted.
You can fight the lich also if not going to be a paladin, the plot changes only when you talk to Arvoreen.
Removed Anomen conflict.
Removed Dakkon's cameo. My cameo plot was a plain rape to Planescape.



If anyone wants to support TBP my project, PM me and I will give him passwords and my blessing.

Yeh.

As I said in a quick reply in mail.

Eh, sorry, I'm still on the ground somewhat.

The difference between the two is that people are sorry to see the bigg go, whereas people are celebrating seeing MPrilla go. ;)

Have fun, and remember that slacking off never anybody...

Edit (not a minute too late). Hurt. Slacking off never hurt anybody. Bah.
