Is there anyway (or have you already) fixed the BG2 bug where the left handed weapon/shield must ALWAYS be facing the user, no matter WHICH direction the player is facing? My party literally NEVER uses shields due to this fact. In bg1, when you turned your chacter, your sword (held in your right hand) would STAY in your right hand. Does your mod cause this to happen in BG2/Tutu as well?

Never experienced, try checking your settings, there is some option whose name contains MIRROR or somesuch, which may be what you're looking for :)

This is what I mean, and seeing as how I have a 6800 ultra, and have seen this in EVERY pic of bg2 i've seen, I'm fairly certain it isnt my software mirroring.

Er, sorry. Here are the screenies.

As you can see, the player is holding their shield on their left arm, and their sword in their right hand (correct for any right handed person)

Here however, she suddenly becomes left handed, as her shield is held in her RIGHT hand, and her blade in her left.

SO irritating.

Does your mod fix, or coudl yuo fix, this?

This mod does nothing for the in-game avatars. It only changes the paperdolls on the inventory screen, at least if memory serves me.

This "bug" cannot be fixed; it is how the the designers designed the player animations.

It happens with weapons, too, actually. I suggest you get used to it ;).

I preordered BG2, I've been playing as long as anyone possibly could be. I'm very much so used to it :P

One could always wish.
