I know it's possible (IWGII). But can it be done with just a few select models. For example the shadow thieves/bodhi/umber hulks... They'd have to overwrite other models already in IWDII wouldn't they?

Anyway, If it can be done... could anyone tell me how?
Metanoia, a Greek word meaning a change of mind. A radical revision and transformation of our whole mental process. That change of mind is something whereby God takes center place in our consciousness, in our awareness, and in our minds.

Metanoia means a new mind. About what? About who we are. If tonight youre hearing with your heart, its time for metanoia. Its time for a new mind about yourself and about life.

Metanoia is the idea of the need for conversion. And this is then recognizing that we dont know, truthfully dont know, God and truthfully dont feel ourselves as God intends us to.

My alias being distorted into a tool of the devil - Aka religion... I think

You would have to manually import them, most likely by extracting and editing every animation and then replacing the entries in the 2da.

I did some work on IWGII myself, and failed due to lack of resources, internal conflicts and inexplicable problems. Not to go off on a tangent, but did you ever look into the bug on teleporting out of Charnames dreams? Always bothered me, that one.

You can use free slots in IWD 2, which are not used in game:

0x7F00 Troll_bg2_MTRO

0x7F09 Sahuagin_bg2_MSAH

0x7F23 Sahuagin_greater_bg2_MSAT

0x7F27 Drow_bg2_MDRO
0x7F29 Drow Female_MFDR

0x7F32 Slayer_MSLY
0x7F38 Wizard_Eye_MMEY

All you have to do is rename the animations you want to import. There are also free slots for animations from IWD 1, that are useable like Sahuagins, Animated Plates, Barbarians, Marilith etc. Check Animate.IDS for clues. The relevant names of animations you will find in Animate.SRC, but not every animation called there can be used (from BG2 just those I listed above). When animation is specific, like Melissan you must rearrange them to proper format.

A small update, what I said above:

0x7F00 Troll_bg2_MTRO
Free (but with big "circle")

0x7F09 Sahuagin_bg2_MSAH
0x7F23 Sahuagin_greater_bg2_MSAT
I was wrong, Sahuagins don't exist, sorry.

0x7F27 Drow_bg2_MDRO
0x7F29 Drow Female_MFDR
They are used in IWD 2 for some Drows, but you can always change them into another animations, like PCs use...

0x7F32 Slayer_MSLY
There is animation within the game, but probably not used.

0x7F38 Wizard_Eye_MMEY
Free
