A question for KD:
I understand why you have changed base stats for Tiax, but why you have buffed up other NPC's base stats? For example, Jaheira has improved Constitution and Dexterity, and Minsc and Faldorn also have some upped stats as well (mainly in the Dexterity and Constitution department). Is there a reason behind this? (this is when I noticed the XP and HP of many of the NPCs are wrong so I have to check them all)
All that I've checked and modified a little were THAC0 and some Saves values. There were some mistakes in comparison to D&D tables. I've done nothing to CON or DEX at all.
I believe those CREs were taken from BP-BGT at some stage. And I see that the stats are different from BG1. But from the other side if you look at Jaheira from BG2 she has such "boosted" stats already. So is this possible for the same NPC to have such different stats in the beginning and a little bit later?
P.S> Check out Khalid.CRE. It has INT=12, but all others have it =15
So the only details you have changed are spell memorisation,
THAC0 and Saving Throws? If so, then the BP-
BGT files must be wrong and I will have to fix the thieving skills,
HP,
XP, and gold. Even JAHEIR.CRE level is wrong. I think there might be some mistakes in the base stats as well, as they shouldn't change, but if they get boosted stats in
BG2, then that could cause a continuity problem if I reset them to
BG1 stats, so it is probably better to keep them as
BG2 (for your Jaheira case). Otherwise, I know of no way that NPCs can boost stats as you get higher level, so I think Khalid is wrong (he should probably have INT=12 because he isn't particularly a good thinker).
