Spellhold Studios

Like a bear awakening from hibernation, Shed returned to the modding scene and yawned! Then, after a cup of tea, he stuck around just long enough to release updates for The Jerry Zinger Show and Yikari!

The Jerry Zinger show allows the PC and his companions to view (and take part in) the live talk show of Jerry Zinger, well known Amnish celebrity! Shows are daily, and executed largely by cutscenes. The mod also features unique technology of adding a movie to the game! The Jerry Zinger Show features a brand new area, the studio, which can be accessed from the Den of Seven Vales. Jerry Zinger is voiced, and great care has gone into writing the juicy material!

The changes are as follows:
QUOTE 2009 - Version 2
* Added German Translation
* Updated Readme
* Moved position of hawker
* Some misspellings fixed
* Fixed a bug with Viconia's dialogue in Episode 8
Yikari is a Lawful Neutral monk NPC for BGII. In Shadows of Amn, he can be found in the Temple District in Athkatla and may be be summoned by the Throne of Bhaal Fate Spirit. This mod provides good characters a roleplaying reason to get Celestial Fury. Yikari's quest is to retrieve the sword, and return it to its rightful owner and location. Whether or not the player already has the sword at their first meeting affects Yikari's equipment, biography, and dialogue, for Yikari has taken a vow of silence until he found has the sword.
