Character Conversion from IWD to IWD II

Wizard Tower · Sat, 1st Nov '03, 11:08pm

I was wondering if anyone one has designed a program or knows of a program that will convert original 2E IWD characters into 3E IWD II characters for import? (I've kind of grown attached you see...)

I haven't heard of such programs. 2E and 3E rules have so many differences that it could be very hard to make such program. But, hopefully, IWD2 has almost all items and spells that are in IWD1.

You must convert your characters manually with Dalekeeper or such editing program (create new characters with same portraits, sounds, names, classes and whatever). 2E to 3E Conversion manual could also help. You can download it from: http://www.sorcerers.net/Fan_Worlds/FR/index.htm (miscellanous section)

Thanx for the tip. I know that there are a lot of differences between the two editions, it took me quite some time to get used to the new rules, trust me. However, I was hoping that some enterprising individual with more time and more talent than myself had made it easy for the rest of us. I guess I will just have to covert them on my own. Thanx again.
