    Power Attack: Power attack 1 - 5 is the amount of attack bonus that gets deducted as an exchange for the damage increase.
    Problems Using Feats While Shapechanged: Hey everyone,
    Expertise is already known, but was only found after the game went into production, so that'll have to be a patch issue. I'm looking into stunning fist and the other feats right now - so far power attack, envenom weapon, hamstring and arterial strike do work while shapeshifted. Let me know if you guys run into any other wonky stuff.

    Replacement Manual: Oh if you're in the US, you can try 800-INTERPLAY as well for that manual.

    Chad Nicholas, Scripter

    Spell Resistance: What levels are your party members? Early on, SR really doesn't mean a whole lot. However, at higher levels is where it'll really start to kick in (especially if you have a drow monk).

    Patch Info: From the patch message:

    NOTE: THIS PATCH HAS NOT BEEN THROUGH AN OFFICIAL TESTING CYCLE. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

    I know people want the stackable bug fix ASAP (along with other bug fixes) but this is a BETA patch. It might work for you. It might not. If you decide to apply the patch, be prepared for something bad to happen 'cause it might.

    Since reinstalling the game fixed the issue the origional poster had with the BETA patch, I'd say the issue is resolved. Just wait for an official patch to be released.

    Doug Avery, Associate Producer

    I/O Error: Hmmm, sounds like the disc is bad or has a defect then. You might try cleaning it fairly briskly and / or using that disc fixer I recommended earlier before returning it... :(

    Portraits: Well, they do have some conditions:

    1) Must be eight characters or less in filename length (that might be the problem?)

    2) Must be a Windows bitmap

    Actually, that's all it looks like it checks.

    Are those bitmaps' names maybe over eight characters in length?
