* Fixed an issue that caused high level items to be used when a character had a single point in Use Magic Device.
Please post any issues you find with the patch in this thread.

It's not required, but it's allowed. You'll have to patch again after SoZ though.

I just downloaded patch 1.21.
My cameras don't work.
How do I fix this? |

You now have 3 camera modes.
Old strategy mod is split to exploration and stategy modes.
Try experimenting with options to get what you want.
In my oppinion, new exploration mod is much closer to original NWN2 strategy mod. While new strategy mod, with free camera, is more useful during the batlle, and can't really be configured as old strategy mode (no camera centered on player, for example). It's also very similar to mode used in Baldur's Gate games.
P.S.
I actually like how they split them. Now I don't need from time to time in big battles to change camera options from tracking the player to free mode just in order to aim properly with my spell.

You have 3 new button down there near hotbar (you can also use * button). Also, look in prerefences how to tweak any mode you want.

Well, I think I've already found one issue. You said in the last thread that "we separated the scale and speed settings for animations, and that should be in this patch." It isn't, or at least I can't see any difference at all.
Edit: What's this I just heard? Tony K says his AI isn't even in this patch. So what's the deal, it's only available to people who buy SoZ or something?

So 1.21 is a Post-SoZ Patch? I reckon the SoZ Version Number is 1.20? |

I haven't been playing NWN2 lately, and so haven't kept up with the patches. My current version is 1.12(1295). Do I have to manually patch the two 1.13 patches before installing SoZ, or will it run without them? |
