My first PnP RPG expirience was some unamed RPG that got "fate points". Somthing that helped us to prevent deadly situation. Not really like action points that are more murdane, but nevertheless similar mechanic. Anyway, the point is that action points are not more gamey then having for example stats for your RPG heroes.

It also simplifies implementation, and reduces bugginess of final product.

just like gnomes...

And will be expanded in PHB2.

18 bugs left (from which 10 are feature bugs). That's nice. Does it mean if 8 non-feature bugs are fixed that we will get release? Well... NOT! From Gizka website: Version is still 0.8b1 (actually they are working on 0.8b2). So translations are not yet done. Unfortunately their progress it not tracked anywhere. Also, not all new content is implemented. Things left to restore (from Gizka forum thread): [TBR - TA] Ratrin Vek on the Ebon Hawk - During the Red Eclipse invasion, the PC can sell Ratrin Vek into slavery. [TBR - Dash] The Zhug Brothers Plan - The Zhug Brothers discuss the Exiles meeting with Visquis and plan an attack on the party members. When the players go to rescue the Exile from Goto, the leader tells the others to follow the Ebon Hawk. [TBR - TA] Gotos Orders - Goto will command his droids not only to activate the mines but raise the force shield, poison them and deploy guard droids. And finally, Goto notices the bounty hunters on his ship and gives the self-destruct order. [TBR - JD] The Sith Revelation - If the PC sides with Vaklu, the Sith will notice that the beasts no longer obey them. The Sith order Vaklus death for the betrayal. [PR] Disciples Hidden Holocron - Disciple takes the Exile into a hidden, locked room in the Enclave and displays a holocron as well as recording of when the Exile left for the Mandalorian Wars, leaving a padawan without a master behind. TBR means "to be restored", thing yet not done in current build. PR means possible restoration, so it may be or may be not restored as part of this project. With all things said, I expect number of bugs to raise as translations and new content gets added. After all, until all translation is done and all content is added, number of bugs countdown doesn't really add to anything, exempt to point out that something is being done by the team, and not all of them are at vacation or something. P.S. Also, I would propose to the team, that they add translation status to their progress reports, as well as TBR content, so that progress report looks more complete.

Kreia is great support if going Guardian with Heavy Armor route.

I never use HK47, nor GOTO, since there is no part of the game that forces me to use any of these characters, while all others need to be used somewere at least once. Now, I don't like Bao-Dour neither, due to low AC, and not that much great unarmed damage (Handmaiden is better), but he has his uses due to high skills, so I still use him as one of the memeber on assault in tomb at Duxin. And his commen at the begging of that mission about Sensor and mines is priceless.

I like him melee more...

Well, I reverted to old save, and tried carefully, not to click on STR implant icon, if it is working already. That I think triggers the bug for new saves.

Ok, mods move this... Maybe I'll have more luck.

You don't undestand. I have to use him on Onderon, but don't want bugged stats. I need a way to remove that permanent insane bonus to STR. EDIT: Plus advice from someone else who experienced a bug, for a way how to play in order to not trigger +4STR after reload feature. EDIT: Looked some of the save-games editors, but haven't seen any of them to be able to edit bonuses to stats.

Playing unpatched game (patch won't install for me), every or almost time I reload mandalore gets extra +4 bonus to strenght ("yellow" bonus, but work indefinetly). It seems somehow that game screw up bonus gained from his implans, so he gets it again and again. So, my question is this: Is there any utility/save editor that could restore Mandalore stats to original values, since I don't like cheatiing. I mean really he is 19th level and is supposed to have STR of 16 (without implanat), but in my game it has 40 (without implant of items!!!) and is yellow stat even without items of implants. Help!

Really? Hmm...

Personally, I'm scared that Obsidian is doing NWN2. If patch support is like this... Although NWN2 would not have mony-grabbing LucasArts as publishers, so it's maybe different thing. Anyway, I'm going way off topic. I'm still have problems installing this "patch".

Who cares? Game more needs a real patch that fixes bugs, and not some high definition videos that will be soo large to be downloaded by dial-up users like me.

Didn't GOTO remanufactured himself (with help of some other droids), since his previous form was just not terror inspiring, when he decieded to go into crimilar affairs as only way to save Republic (the main part of his original programming, which he still follows).

By the way I did noticed that difficulty level changes DC for some tasks. For example, on normal, you need at least +1 security to open the simpliest locks (so 1 rank in security and Int of 8 won't be enough). But, on difficult, you need at least +6 security to open the simplies locks. Kind changes the way I built my characters, since on normal I prefered to always have 1 rank in security even when it's cross-class. So it would be good if I know what DC have locks, mines or so (which are I think static, not dependable of level), so I could know how to plan to characters.

None of the links works...

It's interesting that DEX applies to chance to hit when having Melee Weapon Finesse, no Lightsaber Finesse needed. P.S. Playing vanilla, patch won't install for me (yet).

Anyone have any info about what DC (difficulty class) is neede to do various tasks. Like how big skill is needed to disarm average mine, or pick minor lock?

No it doesn't hang for me. I just says bad checksum and canceles installation. P.S. By the way are there any fixes/tweaks in 1.0b, which are not listed here:

1) Yes 2) Yes, works fine 3) install works fine so I dont see that to be a problem P.S. I think with search I found few other posters with similar problem. Don't know how they solved it (no, remoiving antivirus doesn't help, nor doing nothing during patch install).

I can't seen to install 1.0b patch. Online, offline, nor manual. It always says that swpc_tex_gui.erf is not old, has wrong checksum or similar and that patching is aborted (after 96% done). Don't know what to do, even reinstall seems didn't helped. Anybody else has similar experince and solved the problem?
