[What is the Matrix?]

Hey all

I don't know if this falls into right category, but I figured since it's about modding help - I do need help finding a mod. So, if this is in wrong topic, then I apologise for posting in wrong place.

I was just searching around the web and some people talking that it's possible to dual an archer to a cleric.
And it also states so in one of the FAQs in GameFaqs page. However, no matter what I did, I couldn't do that myself.
Later, I read somewhere that Throne of Bhaal expansion disables this upgrade. And I think that's just plain evil.
I wonder, does ANY one know if there is a small tweak that simply undoes this - and makes Archers duallable to Clerics?

BIG Thanks in advance!

You can do this all by yourself, you just need either Near Infinity(~v1.33b20) or DLTCEP, you need to open the .2da tables, and there the file called dualclas.2da, and there, you just need to change the FERALAN line to be:

FERALAN    		0          1          0          0          0          0

, instead of the all zeros.

Check BG2Fixpack, is has exactly this very thing in Optional But Cool group.

Remove Dual-Classing Restriction from Archers and Stalkers
In Throne of Bhaal, archers and stalkers can not dual-class to clerics as normal rangers and beast masters can; for consistency Core Fixes adds this restriction to SoA-only games as well. This component will remove the restriction.

Ahhh! Perfect! Thanks both of you! I did change it in the table. Was curious about it. haha and worked like a dream!
I was checking also if I could by any chance be able to dual a barbarian to a cleric or druid but didn't fint it.

BG2Tweakpack -> Rule Changes -> Expanded Dual-Class Options

While enabling this dual-class option is fine, an Archer->Cleric won't be able to use bows or other fighter specific weapons. For this you'll need mods like B!Tweaks, Level 1 NPCs or as a last resort Ashes of Embers. And if you're feeling very lucky use Vic's Improvements.

Oki - thanks man. I must've missed that one out then. Though I was curious how and where do I edit in .2DA tables myself for it to change. Haha
