The Item Upgrade mod allows Cromwell and Cespenar to upgrade additional items in BGII. One third of them are convenience functions (e.g., they save you ring or boot space), one third of them try to beef up categories of weapons that are "weak by comparison" (e.g., clubs and spears), and one third of them upgrade NPC-specific items. Version 41 is a collection of bug fixes, a couple of translations, and some other stuff.
The mod folder has, at long last, been standardized to normal WeiDU conventions. The upshot of this is that v40 or earlier of Item Upgrade must be uninstalled completely before installing v41 or later.
This was emailed to jcompton ages ago but never made it onto the weidu.org site, so this release is currently up on GitHub.
