The Birthright Preservation Patch is an enhancement patch for Birthright: The Gorgon’s Alliance, addressing bugs and improving usability of the game and the associated Character Editor utility.
Development is currently focusing on bugs reported to the project’s issue tracker. Feel free to report bugs or request new features here or on the ModDB page. I try to keep track of them as well as I can.
For a detailed breakdown of what the patch changes, please review the changelog.
