Almateria's restoration project
Version 3.4.1
17 November, 2013
By: Almateria
I. GENERAL BULLSHIT
The Restoration Project is a mod for Baldur's Gate aiming to restore literally all unused sounds, as well as some minor cut characters or locations.
II. WHAT THE MOD DOES
A. Restored Locations
This component adds or tweaks some locations that didn't make it to the released version or made no sense at all.
This component restores a few cut characters. Most of them don't have any real role, but serve as flavor.
The biggest and the most important component, it restores proper damaged, dying and morale break sounds to over 1600 characters. A few of them also have additional unused sounds for other occasions.
D. Restored Items
This component restores some items not added by any other mods.
This component restores two cut Wish options, them being:
This component restores XP rewards for doing minor things in ToB, for example:
This component restores random encounters both in SoA and ToB.
If you obtained Cernd's son peacefully, Deril will come back as a lich after three days, if Cernd is still in the party. After a short battle he'll run back to his house, where you can dispose of him permanently.
III. INSTALLATION/UNINSTALLATION
To install, extract the contents of arpvX.zip to your main BG2 directory, then double-click the setup-arestorationp.exe file, or setup-arestorationp.command if your computer is a Mac and follow the instructions on screen.
To uninstall, do the same.
IV. COMPATIBILITY
Please uninstall the Almateria's Enhanced Small Locations/Places, or some transitions will be doubled!
