On this, the first day of SHS’ Twelve Days of Christmas, we are releasing the next version of Classic Adventures!

Beside bug fixes, Version .51 includes 2 other mods; Exnem Items and Infinity Animations.

Exnem Items is a unbalanced, overpowered items mini-mod. Items included give you over -20 AC, high stats, incredible weapons and spells. It is a useful mod for those that like cheesy god-level powers or those needed to pump up their character. Don’t use if you don’t like +6 weapons for level 1 characters.

Inifinity Items is a new mod that allows modders to add more creature animations to a BG2 game. This mod has been changed for the CA mod and is not compatible with other mods (not that a total conversion would be anyways). Animation slots used here are not approved by the authors of IA and probably never will be. It is only for our needs to add in IWD/IWD2/PST and some new NWN creature animations to the CA storyline.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Erephine has been busy, with another mod release!

Infinity Animations patches Baldur’s Gate II: Throne of Bhaal to support additional creature and character animations (referred to as ‘animation slots’ by the community). It also offers a compelling automatised process of making claims for these added game animations, acting as a central hub for anyone who would like to add animation entries to the game without being bogged down by issues of mod conflicts and incompatibilities.

Infinity Animations supports a wide selection of animation types from Baldur’s Gate I, Baldur’s Gate II and Icewind Dale. As an additional bonus, Baldur’s Gate I character animations have been restored in their entirety, and paperdolls have been unlocked for some animations that did not support them previously.

berelinde has just updated her quest mod “Fading Promises” to v3, including Italian and German translations.

Ever wondered what it was like to be tied to life - forever? Aidan knows.

Help him regain his honor, and you might even help him remember what it was to be human.

Fading Promises introduces Aidan, a fallen paladin of Amaunator, who has a couple problems. One of them is that he’s dead. Another is that he never completed his last quest. You can’t help him with the first, but he would be very grateful for your assistance with the second. Who knows? You might even give him the courage to face the judgment he has so long avoided.
