I've played through the BG series and have recently started IWD I.  One of
my IWD characters is a Conjurer, and I'm having trouble writing spells into
her book.  Specifically, she can't write any Evocation spells (big
trouble!).  I thought Conjurers were restricted from learning ...

Howdy,
What's the best way to play IWD, alone or with HOW and Trials of the
Luremaster installed?
Is there a way to determine when you get into the extra areas provided

I have been looking for Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal fo quite some time
now and hoped i could find it here.  Could someone post it please.  it'd be
much appreciated..

Okay, I have applied Tutu and the Fixpack.  I have downloaded the alternate
start screens, where do I install them?
Here's the really dumb question, do I open BG 2 to play BG 1 with the Tutu
fixes?

I'm trying to install Baldur's Gate The Original Saga on a Win98SE system.
At the end of the fist disk during the installation it gives me a blue
screen of death and locks up my computer.
Anyone been here b4?  Any help greatly appreciated.

Howdy--I'm on my second run at BG2 and I wanted to try it with a
different party this time--but I'm not sure who to take and what
equipment to give them.  I was wondering what are your favorite NPC
combo's and what do you like to stock them with?

I am just about to start BG2 (including TOB installed) and want to make the
game as realistic as possible (within the confines of the program,
naturally).
I know there are certain mods out there that make certain fights more

Forgive me, I am new to the BG mods.  I see there is BG Tutu, as well as the
fixpack that was just released.  I have neither installed as of yet.  Does
the fixpack include Tutu as well as the latest fixes, or do I need to
install Tutu, then apply the fixpack?

first off, i should ask a basic question: can you sell drow equipment?
if so, i was wondering if you could put it in a bag of holding, and then
 take it to a store somewhere in athkatla and sell it, or does that
still count as being out in the sunlight?

The ongoing conversation about 2nd & 3rd editions has led me to
wondering about how PnP treats "monsters" stocked in dungeons
and places like that. I've never played PnP so I obviously don't
know what I'm talking about. I imagine it depends mostly on the

Which talent is responsible for the thief's "thieving" skill necessary to
disarm traps?
Open locks? Or pick pockets? (where would be the logic in the latter?!)

I've noticed that the wording is "when the familiar dies", as opposed to
"gets killed", so I'm wondering if this means that a familiar can/will
naturally die after a certain amount of time. Or is the only way for it
to die (and for you to lose a point of CON) is if it's killed in ...

I've imported a saved game from BG1 follwing your advice about copying a
saved game file. I've found that my experience points is only at about 9000
which I thought would be higher due to my having TOSC. Is there any way to
increase XP on imported characters, should I be importing a ...

No not together ) but in true role playing tradition I have them both
fighting over me (with Soubar multi romance).
All went well in my recently stopped game but eventually Jahiera gave me an
ultimatum and I chose her over Viconia but did not totally blow Viconia away

I haven't encountered him yet, but I'm thinking about who I want my
party to be. I'd like to have a cleric, but I was wondering if he dualed
to a cleric, or if he's a fighter now.
