Note: This mod was first released at RPGDungeon.net. As this site is no more available since many years, it was time to save it from disappearance. It is now hosted at Spellhold Studios with Rastor authorization.
This mod adds to and, in some cases, alters the kits available to a player on the character generation screen.
Original note from the author
The Kit Pack originally began life in June 2004 when Grey Acumen and others from the RPG Dungeon community between them invited suggestions as to what potential new kits could be added to make the game a more enjoyable experience. Along the way, conjecture on viable kit alterations were also suggested. Eventually, there was enough material to merit a mod being made out of some of the suggestions. Although GA wasn't able to see the fruition of his endeavours, when the collection was made available for continuation, I decided to see what I could do with the set. As such, the first mod version contains some of the more interesting kits that were discussed but it also serves as a consolidation of work that has been taken from the content and made into mods elsewhere. Many people contributed to the launch of the mod but those that have my own personal gratitude are Grey Acumen, Rastor, Sovran, a Wounded Lion and ronin69hof.
The current version contains the following components:
- Soldier Kit
- Ice Knight Kit
- Spell Weaver
- Wild JesterWild Jester Equal Opportunity Edition
- Spellsword
- BuffoonBuffoon Equal Opportunity Edition
- Arcane Archer
- Hellion
The mod also has the following changes as optional installs:
- Altered Wizard Slayer Kit Spell additions
- Dual Wielding fix
- Original Sorcerer Description
Although it is not required for the RPG Dungeon Kit Pack mod to function properly, classical game players are strongly recommended to download and install the latest version of the BG2 Fixpack before proceeding with the installation of this mod.
If you've previously installed the mod, remove it before extracting the new version. To do this, run setup-rpg-kp.exe, un-install all previously installed components and delete the 📁 rpg-kp folder.
When installing or un-installing, do not close the DOS window by clicking on the X button! Instead, press the Enter key whenever instructed to do so.
Disable any antivirus or other memory-resident software before installing this or any other mod. Some (particularly avast and Norton!) have a tendency to report false positives with mod activity, resulting in failed installs.
In addition to the methods above for removing individual components, you can completely un-install the mod using setup-rpg-kp --uninstall at the command line to remove all components without wading through prompts.
