Baldurs Gate observation/question

I don't know why I didn't seem to take notice of this, but in BG1 the enemies don't show "barely injured" or "injured" when you put the cursor over them. Is there any way to turn this on? I've gone from replaying BG2 (where they do show it) to BG1 and it's a bit annoying not being able to tell "how much further" I have to go until I kill an enemy.

Use Tutu?

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

Don't think so.

I didn't know they had that option in BG2, even though I've played it a bajillion times. Now THAT is weird. :)

tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

This was one of the extras that came with the second generation of IE games, such as having quivers that could hold 40 arrows and being able to switch to an overhead map while your characters moved around.

 

As others have said, you need a mod to get this to function in the original game.

Did you remember to edit the configuration file they tell you to edit in the readme so that it knows where you've got the games installed? Are both games on the same drive/partition? Did you use a full install of both games? Do you have TotSC installed with BG1? Fully patched?

 

And most importantly: Did you ask about this on the PPG web site? :sorcerer: They'll be able to answer any real questions you've got.

 

Edit: It's also possible that you may indeed suck. I wouldn't know about that, though. If that's the case, I don't what to suggest.

I bet he just sucks. Then again, it's mods we're talking about.
