I made this mod(still WIP) for myself but decided to share in hopes that it will be useful/interesting for somebody else out there
What this mod does so far:
1. Adds new items(mostly books and boots)
2. Advancing characters via books - usually Charname's party gets stronger via level ups and gear(a few found tomes and manuals were too scarse to make a difference)
3. Money sink - new books cost a lot, so now player has a reason and a place to spend their riches
4. Boots of speed - now there is enough of them for whole party
5. Smoother lore and carry weight advancement - every new point of wisdom, intelligence and strength makes a difference
6. Some women may have new bracelets and earrings in their possession(like Silke for example). It may make a few fights a tiny little bit more difficult
Future plans:
1. A few more boots
2. Maybe a few more books
3. A bit of ingame explaining why those books cost so much and why are they sold
4. A few small simple quests
5. More jewelry
6. Maybe I'll try to make tweaks and jewelry optional in installation process
7. Similar mod for BGII
Tips:
1. Mod is sensitive to tweaks that change store prices - books were meant to cost lots of money, so beware the tweaks you use after installing this mod
2. Since you can get stronger via books - it makes sense to mod your game a bit to make it harder than usual, so it will not become boring
3. I like putting as little attribute points in character creation as possible - this way journey from a kid that's runs away to a godlike creature Charname becomes(especially with this mod) feels even more fun gameplay-wise
4. This mod is very simple(I don't know much about modding) so it can be easily tuned to ones preferences
5. All in all - have fun. That's a single-player game, do in it whatever you like ^_^
