    The Darron mod (from Eslizon) has been updated and is now available with macOS and Linux support.

    This mod adds Darron, a new merchant who sells special goods created especially for thieves. You can find him in the cellar of the Shadow Thieves guild.

    Version 2.0.0 is BG2, ToB, BGT, BG2:EE and EET compatible, comes with new French and Russian translations, 1PP and ToBEx compatibility, and many items fixes.

    Change log:

    • Added darron.ini metadata file to support AL|EN's "Project Infinity".
    • Renamed Setup-DARRON.tp2 -> darron.tp2 to support AL|EN's "Project Infinity".
    • Replaced `AUTHOR` keyword with `SUPPORT`.
    • Added `README` command in tp2.
    • Added `HANDLE_CHARSETS` function to convert string entries for EE games.
    • Added missing `REQUIRE_PREDICATE` process to avoid installing the mod in inaccurate games.

    • Added native BG2:EE, EET, 1PP and ToBEx compatibility.
    • Provided a Darron portrait for EE games.
    • Converted inventory BAMs to EE: This feature attempts to modify traditional inventory BAMs so that both the large and small icons are utilized by the EE games. The inventory BAM must have two sequences, the first containing the "large" inventory icon frame and the second containing the "small" inventory icon frame to be processed. Inventory icon BAMs in the bam folder that meet these requirements are patched and saved back to the override folder.

    • Added Russian translation (by the BiG World Textpack Russian project).
    • Split setup.tra file into separate thematic files for more comfortable readability.
    • Updated and renamed readme file to "darron--readme-spanish.txt", wrote a new English readme, then moved them into new "readme" folder.
