Hey,

I was wondering if you had an MD5 control sum for the download, or a control size, or something like this? Because I downloaded the 7z archive off the site two times using various mirrors(and I have good connection, and my Opera browser usually downloads things rignt), and both times it told me during the unpacking that the file was corrupted. My 7z archive is 294219893 bytes long(or so Total Commander shows).

EDIT: Third download did it. Love it. Thanks!

(One thing bothered me, though: BG2 music in the very-very beginning, with "chaos will be sown in their footsteps..." text. BG2 music doesn't fade after that, and it mingles with "You spent your youth..." audio, which doesn't help. Besides, the original BG2 intro text was silent, so maybe silent is the best option here).

Glad you liked it:)

The music is a bit tricky. This is DA first... new music. I will check the parameters when we start talking about patches and see if I can adjust that in FMOD so it doesnt bleed, but honestly, it might be as good as I can get with the Dragon Age engine. We ran into alot of engine limitations and oddities, not as smoothly moddable as the Infinity Engine.

We are hoping to do the entire game, but that will take years. And, of course, as we can make it more like BG2... we will patch earlier versions. The mephits are still being 'animated', although the models are finished.

Just installed and about to try it out! Cant wait!

EDIT: Just finished playing and...WoW 11/10!!! Pretty damn good I must say! I did however notice a few bugs...I hope you dont mind me posting them though I am sure you are aware just incase you arent however...

-Injury kits do not heal injuries for some reason...And resting does not remove injures sadly either

Well actually thats the only bug I really noticed heh...or major one that I remember!

I do have a question or two however...Is there any way to get your party to 6 in Dragon Age? Or will this be a 4 party game the whole way through?

Also do you plan on releasing the rest of the parts if you do them piece by piece...say chapter by chapter or what not? Or are you going to do just big releases?

I hate to ask this as well haha but I might as well...Is your team only doing BG2 SOA? Or are you eventually going to try TOB if you ever get that far?

Anyways regardless of all that supreme job...And even if you were to not release anything more you deserve a medal or something for what you done here!

It looks great. Hopefully this project will endure the test of time, and we'll see more from you guys in the future.

10 must-have mods? No voiced Sir Gilmore, no Morrigan Restoration, no unofficial fixpacks? This sucks.
