Greetings, Planescape: Torment fans!
We’re preparing a new update for Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition, and today we’re launching a public beta for the first wave of changes.
Earlier this year, we updated Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale Enhanced Editions to version 2.7, introducing major improvements such as new languages, better cloud support, and expanded mobile modding. Since PST:EE hasn’t received an update in many years, our goal is to bring these engine upgrades to Sigil as well.
Please note that not all 2.7 features have made it into this initial beta build — more improvements will arrive in future updates.
A special thank‑you goes to our Czech and Italian communities, who have waited a long time for their localizations to be added. Czech is now available on mobile, and Italian is included on both PC and mobile. We appreciate your patience.
Patch Notes
New Languages Added | We’ve integrated several community‑translated languages: Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Russian, and Ukrainian. Additionally, Czech is now available on mobile
Modron’s Maze Fix | Resolved an issue where modded content was incorrectly reloaded or removed from save files when Modron’s Maze was generated. This should prevent areas from resetting after leaving the Maze
[macOS] Native Apple Silicon Support | PST:EE now runs natively on Apple Silicon, offering faster launch times, improved overall performance, better rendering, and lower power consumption — especially helpful for laptops
[Linux] Now using a new software library | Migrated from libssl to OpenSSL to improve compatibility with newer distributions
[iOS] Hardware Keyboard Support | Fixed an issue preventing external keyboards from functioning properly. Bluetooth and other hardware keyboards should now work as expected
Dynamic Language Support | We’ve updated PST:EE to allow easier language additions and updates in the future. Most language updates will no longer require a full patch on major storefronts. This build also includes the latest updates from the Beamdog Translate site
Chinese Font Update | At the request of our Chinese localization volunteers, we’ve replaced the Chinese font with a more readable option. Chinese quotation marks have also been standardized to ASCII quotation marks
Per‑Language Font Size Saving | Font zoom settings are now saved per language, rather than globally. You can adjust this in Options → Graphics → Font Size. Settings are stored in your Baldur.lua file, for example: <user_path>\\Documents\\Planescape Torment - Enhanced Edition\\Baldur.lua Entries appear as: SetPrivateProfileString('FontZoom','en_US','112') Zoom values are percentages (e.g., Chinese now defaults to 134%)
Simplified dialog.tlk Modding | Modding dialog.tlk is now easier. In version 3.2.0, you can place your preferred dialog.tlk file in: <user_path>\\Documents\\Planescape Torment - Enhanced Edition\\override\\dialog.tlk This file will be used regardless of in‑game language settings. Other modding improvements are still in progress, and this particular feature is new compared to BG and IWD 2.7
A note for Android: since PST 3.2.0 does not have Android user-accessible folders yet, it would be difficult to mod Android in any way for now.
On Android, users would need to be able to access the Android home:/ folder, which is:
<Android_base_memory>/Android/data/com.beamdog.planescapetormentenhancededition/files/
Example:
<phone>\\Internal shared storage\\Android\\data\\com.beamdog.pstee\\files\\override
[iOS] Add user-accessible game data | The iOS games will now save games and read files from a location that is visible to file browsers. Users can access these files on the iOS device itself, or on MacOS or Windows by connecting their phone to a computer and using appropriate software to explore the device.
Ensure you have made a new save in the iOS 3.2.0.1 version so that the directory is created. If you want to access a particular save you made in a previous version, ensure that you upgrade the app (do not uninstall). Load the save, and then make a new save after loading. All new saves will appear in the user-accessible location.
MacOS - use the Finder to open the device and view the Files tab to see any new saves the game has made
Windows - use the Apple Devices software provided by Apple in the Windows Store to explore the device and view the Files tab to see any new saves the game has made
iOS - use the Files app to view the game directories in the “On My <device>” section
Users who wish to add game overrides, portraits, etc. can do so by copying the appropriate folder to the game folder of their choice on the iOS device.
