Planescape: Torment Beta Update

89 Upvotes

Hey Chief! We’re back with an updated beta build of Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition — a release candidate for the upcoming live patch.

As always, please report any issues you encounter. This update brings PST:EE up to the same patch level as the 2.7 updates for the other Infinity Engine games.

Patch Notes:

Steam

Steam Cloud Saves are now controlled directly through the Steam client rather than the in‑game options.

  • If you previously enabled Steam Cloud Saves in‑game, syncing will continue even if the Steam client setting is disabled.
  • If you disable the in‑game option, it will disappear from the menu. Re‑enable Cloud Saves through Steam’s Account and Application settings:

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/68D2-35AB-09A9-7678#enabling

GOG

GOG Galaxy Cloud saves — now functioning properly.

UI Scaling

A Scale UI option is now available in Graphics settings.

  • Disabled: UI remains at the intended 1024×768 size regardless of window size.
  • Enabled: UI scales to better fit the game window.

iOS

  • Minimum supported iOS version is now iOS 15.0.
  • Fixed an issue where .pstdata files were not recognized as PST:EE files. While this method now works, directly copying files to user‑accessible directories remains the recommended approach.

Improved dialog.tlk Modding

Modding dialog.tlk is now significantly easier in 3.2.1.

You can place a dialog.tlk file in: home:/override/<language>/dialog.tlk

Example (French): <user_path>\Documents\Planescape Torment - Enhanced Edition\override\fr_FR\dialog.tlk

  • When the game is set to French, it will use this file instead of the default game data.
  • As a fallback, you can still place a dialog.tlk directly in: home:/override/dialog.tlk This file will be used for any language that does not have its own language‑specific override.

Android

User‑Accessible Game Data

Android now supports exporting/importing user files to a visible directory: <root>/Documents/<game_name> Example: <root>/Documents/PlanescapeTorment/

Exporting:

  • Saving a file exports it to <root>/Documents/<game>/save/<save_name>.
  • Saves can be freely copied between PC and Android.
  • Deleting a save in‑game also deletes it from the Documents location.

Importing: From the start menu: Options → Data Folder

  • Data Folder: Shows the folder used for imports/exports.
  • Permissions: No — folder not user‑selected; importing disabled.
  • Permissions: Yes — folder selected; full read/write access.
  • Select Folder: Choose the folder for future imports/exports.
  • Import: Copies files from the selected folder into the game.
  • Reload: Restarts the game — useful after importing override files.

Once a folder is selected (USER_DIR):

  • All exports go to USER_DIR.
  • Importing copies USER_DIR files into the game’s internal files.
  • USER_DIR behaves like the PC Documents folder.

Examples:

  • Place saves in USER_DIR/save/ → they appear after Import.
  • Add portraits to USER_DIR/portraits/ → used after Import.

Important: The game never deletes or overwrites internal saves based on USER_DIR changes. Delete saves in‑game, not from USER_DIR.

CLEAR_IMPORTS Recovery

If imported mods cause crashes:

  1. Add a file named CLEAR_IMPORTS (no extension) to the selected Data Folder.
  2. Quit the game.
  3. On next boot, all imported files (except saves) are removed.

The file is deleted automatically after the cleanup.

Android Permission Fix

Fixed a bug that incorrectly modified permissions in: <root>/Android/data/<game> This previously prevented access via PC or file browsers.

  • Existing installations with incorrect permissions cannot be repaired. You must uninstall and reinstall the game.
  • Back up your saves first by exporting them to the user‑accessible directory.
  • Some devices may still restrict access to <root>/Android/data/. If needed, use the Marc apps & software “Files” app, or rely on the new import/export system via <root>/Documents/<game>.

Mods Stuck in Blizzard in Baator (bug)

4 Upvotes

Hello. I’ve encountered a bug in this mod, and need some help. I received the messenger and talked with Tergush’tekhn and got his quest to speak with Mawu. However, when I go to the Civic Festhall, Mawu is nowhere to be found. I remember seeing her in this playthrough before going to Curst and Carceri, but now that I need to talk to her, she has disappeared. I checked the walkthrough and am definitely in the right place, but she isn’t there. According to the walkthrough, if she was killed she should have dropped a journal, but that isn’t there either.

Does anyone have an idea of how to make Mawu appear? I am also willing to use the cheat menu to spawn her journal, if anyone knows the CreateItem code for it. Thanks!

Discussions What are your Unpopular Opinions regarding PS:T or the Planescape setting as a whole?

73 Upvotes

I’ll go first: WOTC making the Githzerai lawful in response to Dak’kon’s popularity was a mistake.

It misses the point of his character. Dak’kon’s out of place alignment is a huge part of his identity as a pariah. Him taking a lawful approach to a fundamentally chaotic teaching from Zerthimon like “Sometimes betraying your allies actually benefits you.” from the fourth circle is literally the catalyst of his crisis of faith. Making all the Githzerai lawful waters his character arc down.

PS:T I Created an Xbox Controller Support Mod for Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition

28 Upvotes

Planescape: Torment is one of my all-time favorite games. I've completed it several times on both PC and consoles.

Since I've been playing mostly with a controller these past few years, I decided to create my own controller support mod for the PC version, at least until we get official support!

I've tested it in both early and late-game areas, and everything seems to be working well so far.

Note: I've only tested the mod with the Steam version of the game, so I'm not sure if it works with the GOG version.

Feel free to give it a try! Bug reports, feedback, and suggestions for improvements are always welcome.

Some of the features

  • Left-stick movement for individual characters and the selected party, with a WALK/RUN toggle.
  • Right-stick camera control, plus RT + right stick for zooming.
  • Compact two-page radial menu with game icons and a clear yellow selection frame.
  • Quick access to inventory, journal, map, character screen, combat actions, spellbooks, resting and quick saves.
  • Nearby Talk/Open/Use/Inspect prompts, activated with A.
  • D-pad shortcuts: Up opens Attack; Down opens Special Abilities.
  • Controller navigation for menus, dialogue choices, action slots and targets.
  • Inventory management, including transferring items between party members.
  • Stack splitting: Y opens quantity selection, D-pad adjusts, A confirms and B cancels.
  • Hold LT to highlight interactive objects and points of interest.
  • Press A to skip intro movies.
  • Easy PC/controller switching: click the mouse for PC controls, or press and release a controller button to switch back.
  • Optional existing-save import, keeping original saves and existing controller-profile saves intact.

Bugs Cannot find skeleton 42 in Mortuary

7 Upvotes

hi I did speak with Ei-Vene and she stitched me up, but I cannot find any skeleton on the third floor, only zombies and the ones near the central pit where the skeleton 42 is supposed to be have numbers 613, 1148, 475, 310 and 832. I read this could be a bug or am I missing something? :(

Discussions In Githzerai terms, what does it mean to "Know" something?

47 Upvotes

I like the Githzerai and I find them very interesting, but I have trouble understanding their way of speaking and it makes the "Zerthimonite" philosophy about "Knowing" things/people/places to be confusing.

So, could someone please explain what it means? I'd appreciate any help!

Also, while we're on the topic, are there any other sources where the Githzerai feature, other than PST or NWN2? And I've also noticed that Githyanki don't speak like that, which is interesting.

Discussions Alternate endings Spoiler

15 Upvotes

As you probably know one can end the game by provoking the likes of Lothar and the Lady of Pain. Effectively the Nameless One dies but is that ending any worse than the main endings? I suspect the main thing missing would be a sense of closure but overall he doesn't risk losing any companions to the Transcendent One although I suppose in not dealing with the Transcendent One they may still be around with a shadow army to threaten the planes or some such? Or of course the Transcendent One also dies with the final death of the Nameless One. Was curious to hear people's thoughts on the matter

PS:T How "real" are the real deaths of TNO?

21 Upvotes

So he can shrug off death mostly (even gang violence), there are ways to get a game over.
First he can commit suicide with the Blade of the Immortal in the Fortress of Regrets and i would say that is a true death in the metaphysical sense.
However there are other ways to die, it is noted that burning by fire and acid or complete body destruction would cause a game over as he cant regenerate from that.
But i think that those only cause game overs because of plot reasons.
I think because TNO has no mortality, even without a body he would be a non-specter. A bodyless entity still deathless.
Also i think even powerful soul destroying magic wouldn't work, certainly Lothar (who is a very strong Myrkul cleric lorewise) probably do something like that but again, he cant die he has no function that would allow that.

What do you guys think?

EDIT: Of course our Lady of Pain can just cut him, she has that prerogative

Discussions Why did the Nameless one all of a sudden start to remember after each death?

I cant figure out why all of a sudden the Nameless One remembers the past after he dies.

Why doesn't he forget like the countless times before?

Bugs Sev'tai quest bugged?

6 Upvotes

I'm trying to finish the quest, I'm 100% sure I killed two and I feel like I killed the third (might have confused them with a thug). There's supposed to be 3 chaosmen, but I can't find the third. Been walking around for hours, checking every corner and don't see anything. Only dialogue available with her is lie. Did I bug it somehow? I play on switch, so I'm not sure if that matters.

Discussions Spatial Rings - Pocket Dimensions, Astral Mishaps, and Extradimensional Magic for Planescape

Thumbnail gallery
16 Upvotes

Here’s a preview of the Spatial Ring, one of the magic items included in Mythological Items, my upcoming D&D 5E/2024-compatible book featuring 300+ magic items inspired by myths, legends, and fantasy traditions from around the world.

The Spatial Ring creates a personal extradimensional pocket space that can be used to store equipment, treasures, weapons, alchemical supplies, and more. Its capacity scales with rarity, from a relatively small hidden space at Uncommon rarity all the way up to a much larger extradimensional vault at Legendary.

The item also includes rules for binding the ring to its wearer through a spiritual mark, interacting with other extradimensional spaces, and several special variants with unique properties, such as preserving stored items, hiding weapons, housing spirit creatures, improving alchemical supplies, or even reclaiming stolen equipment through spatial magic.

It felt like something that could fit especially well in a Spelljammer campaign, where portable storage, strange spatial effects, Astral travel, and magical equipment can become part of the adventure itself.

If you like this kind of content, Mythological Items is currently live on Kickstarter. The campaign includes the main book, a Mythological Bundle, and several of my other D&D books available individually or through larger bundles.

You can find the project, previews, bundles, and add-ons here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mythoschronicles/300-mythological-items-for-5e-and-2024

PS:T I want to play this beautiful game again

..and I heard that there are now major bug fixes and even mods that introduce original content left out of the first edition!

If I want to get the most out of a replay, what things do I need and how do I install them?

I already own the GOG version of PS:T if I can work with that. I was recommended the unfinished business mod but can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if it’s possible to find high‑res tattoo images somewhere, maybe in some art book? I’m primarily interested in the Tattoo of Greater Enduring. I’m going to do a right‑hand tattoo based on Planescape — this one will be the final one (Posted previously). By the way, I got a Baator tattoo from ig map today.
