2.7 Beta updated with the ALL CAPS fix & iOS beta access

Patch 2.7.2.0 for the Infinity Engine beta is out now for BG:EE, SoD, BGII:EE, and IWD:EE!

Here are the patch notes:

\[BG1, BG2 & IWD] Fixed the 2.7.1.0 issue where English and other Latin-script languages would appear in ALL CAPS.

NOTE: If you played in a language that appeared in all-caps in 2.7.1, you must make a manual edit to the Baldur.lua file for this fix to apply.

Baldur.lua file can be found at /Documents/ /Baldur.lua Ex. “C:\\Users\\ \\Documents\\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition\\Baldur.lua”

These steps are only necessary if you are experiencing the all-caps bug.

Option 1 (if you do not make personal edits to Baldur.lua)

Delete your Baldur.lua file, the game will recreate it with correct values

Option 2 (if you have edits in Baldur.lua you wish to keep)

Open Baldur.lua in a text editor find all lines like the one below and delete them (a “Fonts” line that uses “STONESML”):

SetPrivateProfileString('Fonts','en_US','STONESML')

\[BG1-SoD] We have added the following community-translated language to the game: Russian.
