Now that makes sense. Not like that idiotic Icewind Dale in NWN2 engine or whatever the **** that was. Looks great!
Also no need for Beamcuck's versions
Neverwinter Nights for Baldur's Gate should be fully compatible with BG2:TOB, BGT, BG2EE, EET games and with pretty much any other mod that's out there.
Someone(presumably, a GemRB dev) in the gibberlings thread completed it using GemRB with few issues. That was before the recent GemRB patch that included fixes specifically for it. https://gemrb.org/

Only not quite yet. You can't access Neverwinter Nights as a separate campaign from a menu. There is a guy added to Baldur's Gate 2 who'll take you to this entirely new campaign contained within the original one, and he'll only show up once you have 1,350,000 XP (around level 13 or so). The experience thankfully wasn't too much of an issue thanks to cheat codes, but I did have to crank through the absolute slog of BG2's opening Jon Irenicus dungeon.
Setting the difficulty down to Story didn't do anything about Baldur's Gate 2's deadly traps, so I was short a Minsc and Jaheira by the time I reached the surface. Even then, it took me a minute wandering around Athkatla to run into John Neverwinter (really just a "Messenger") who could whisk me away to a completely different game.

Ted has been thinking about PC games and bothering anyone who would listen with his thoughts on them ever since he booted up his sister's copy of Neverwinter Nights on the family computer. He is obsessed with all things CRPG and CRPG-adjacent, but has also covered esports, modding, and rare game collecting. When he's not playing or writing about games, you can find Ted lifting weights on his back porch.
Sure, Ted...whole story falls apart with that "sister's copy"
I get not knowing much about Weidu mods if you haven't spent the past 20+ years obsessively modding it, but the ignorance displayed in a "professional" publication astounds me.

Holy ******* ****, journalists really are a waste of ******* space, air, meat and bones. I played BG2 as a child and had no problem completing the dungeon.
I think this is a full playthru
