I'm currently working on Icewind Dale 2, and I think I've got a major bug, and was hoping someone could confirm it. I'm currently in chapter 2 in the ice temple, and I'm at the Battle Squares arena. From what I understand, I need three squares in row to complete the first level of the first rank. But for me, completing three squares in row does nothing but get a prompt to select another square. In fact completing all nine squares does nothing but get that same prompt. So are things as badly borked as I'm afraid they are, or am I missing something?

Someone in this thread in the forum for Sorcerer's Place seems to have had the same problem, and tracked it to a widescreen mod; could it be that in your case? :/

[edit] They also seem to have had an "Ease of Use" mod that allows one to skip Battle Squares - perhaps this mod might be of use?

I had installed a widescreen mod, and it turns out that it was my problem as well. Many thanks for the help! What a relief! I couldn't bear the thought of having to stop the game with so much time invested already.

A pleasure to be of service - I'm glad that you managed to get it working. ^_^
