++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Author: Lava Del'Vortel  |  Version: 3.1



INTRODUCTION:

The mod introduces a brand new part of Athkatlan sewers. You may now use the originally inactive grate in Slums to enter a locked part of the sewers and discover its dark corners. The mod offers three new areas as well as a couple of mini-quests, new items and graphics. Gather your party and visit the Ooze's Lounge, a special place with spacial wares, locked from most commoners, yet opened for adventurers like yourself, Bhaalspawn. To enjoy the new content you may first need to finish an important Bridge District quest.

Ooze's Lounge is part of Athkatlan Grounds mod series. 


INSTALLATION:

Install as any other WeiDU mod: unzip the archive to your main Baldur's Gate 2 directory and run the setup.exe. Then, follow the instructions that will show up on the screen.
The mod should be compatible with both Baldur's Gate 2 and Baldur's Gate 2: Enhanced Edition, even though it was mostly made for EE version of the game.
To enjoy the mod you must start a new game or at least use the savegame before you enter Slums for the first time.
