UPDATE (23/11/2005): BGT-WeiDU is moving out of BETA! The next version will be labelled BGT-WeiDU 0.99 ZETA, as the final 0.99 version to be issued. As you can see by the huge slew of bugfixes and changes below, this promises to be almost completely bugfree (when played standalone)! Watch this forum over the next week or two for further updates pending release...
UPDATE (29/11/2005): Not much of announcement, but this is to remind people that a hotfix is available for Ike not appearing in Durlag's Tower. The particular bug fix is bolded for easy reference.
