(Before you reply with a flame, lemme just say -- please don't... If you
don't want to cheat, ignore this please.)

Some one try and figure out how to make the cheats work. here's what I have
found:

in the file "luaAuto.cfg" is the following:

---------------
$debug;
cheat=CLUAcheats:new();
--------------

Also, looking at the exe bgmain.exe, I see commands like 'addgold',
'createitem' 'createmonster' and 'EnableCheatKeys'....

Anyone figure it out yet?

M!S

There WAS a hex edit cheat for Baldur's Gate on AVault, but now it is gone!
Unfortunately I only printed it and didn't save it as ASCII. Maybe I'll
have to scan it and upload it. Unless they figured there was a problem with
it or something and that's why they pulled it...

IF anyone really wants to cheat, I do have a trainer and a character editor
online for download.. it will ruin the game though... anyway, click on the
url below, and click on the TSR logo.. enjoy.

Why did Avault pull it? (Try your link... it doesn't work.)

I must have every cheat ever published for BG on my HD, though i have yet to
unpack them.. It just gives me a feeling of power when the game is trying to
beat me and i say "Cut it out or I'll pack out the hexeditor and beat you!".

Call it creative psychological use of cheats =)

I've almost never had a persistant "random" hardware problem. If one of the
boxes I work with acts up, I pull out the 'tinker' Swiss Army knife, and
recite the mantra.

I am holding a screwdriver.
I know nothing about electronics.
I am not *asking* you to work.

Things get a lot better.
