This BETA patch is being provided
to fix a particular issue with the Throne of Bhaal 26498 patch
(above). If you are having a problem with save and load times
noticeably increasing, the new Throne of Bhaal 26499 BETA
patch has been found to resolve the problem. The patch is
applicable to the English, German, French, Italian, and Spanish
versions of Throne of Bhaal.
Note: Please keep in mind that
this patch has received limited testing and so is marked as
BETA. You should only install this if you are having very
slow save and load times in Throne of Bhaal. If you are not
experiencing these problems, do not install this. Installation
of the 26499 BETA patch must only be done after the 26498
patch is installed.
Instructions
To repair a slow saving/loading saved game, you must first
have the BETA patch installed. The patch installer copies
a new BGMain.exe into your Baldur’s Gate II root directory.
Then start the game and load the affected game (with the slow
loading time), and resave it (the saving time will continue
to be slow at this point). The save game has now been fixed
and future saving/loading of the saved game will now take
the normal amount of time. This new BETA patched version of
Throne of Bhaal is still multiplayer compatible with the 26498
patched version of the game. |

| This is a comical Physics review done
for the author's high school AP Physics Class. Please note that
this was made to entertain, and that some of the questions may
not have the physics concept completely correct. This is the
complete (and corrected) form of the version posted in SP's
Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn forum. Several people found
the plain version entertaining, so the author wanted this greatly
enhanced version to be made available to them. |

"Thieves"
(5.1MB)
A very catchy techno tune with various voice clips of the
game's thief characters mixed in.
"Viconia vs Vhailor"
(6.7MB)
Here is the second, much more "techno-y" tune for
you all to enjoy!
"Be Wary" (5MB)
The third tune for you all to enjoy! This one is more of a
hip-hop style closer to that of "Thieves" with some
scratching and added elements. |

Viconia telling Valygar to bathe, Yoshimo calling Mazzy a 'cute
samurai', Viconia calling Jaheira a 'crossbred mongrel', and
several monologues like Haer'dalis's limerick of Edwin. |

I've put logs from both channels (where questions were asked
and of the one where they were answered) together in one file.
If you actually decide to read it all (it was left unedited)
you'll be able to see that the most interesting questions were
answered after the end of the chat or not at all. Kudos to the
channel operators for showing us how chats are NOT supposed
to be done. |

| Another addition to the endless bunch
of chat logs with the Baldur's Gate II development team, this
time by a pretty unknown site and AFTER the release of BGII.
The chat ran through a java client which wasn't all that popular
judging by the comments. Some questions posted are pretty stupid
and should've been ignored by moderators in my opinion, but
all in all the chat was pretty interesting. |

 This
gigantic tanar'ri is 18 feet tall and reptilian. Demogorgon
has two heads which bear the visages of twisted and evil baboons.
His skin is plated with snake-like scales. His body and legs
are those of a giant lizard. Rather than arms, Demogorgon has
massive tentacles. This Prince of Demons is the essence of malevolent
power and all that he beholds is destroyed. |
