Useful information?

Post by Vintenar »

A friend of mine was a long time DnD fanatic. After he got married and his house was severely damaged by fire he decided to get rid of all his books and handed them over to me. I've got about three stacks of 2nd edition books (box sets) each around 6 feet tall, many detailing locations (with maps) such as Waterdeep, Silverymoon, Undermountain, Menzoberranzen etc. If some of this knowledge could be useful for anything such as building new areas for unfinished modules, let me know and I would be more than happy to dig through them and find the information you need. TSR was very in depth with their treatment of Faerun, which is something that cannot be said about Wizard's of the Coast and 3rd edition.

Also, I've had some schooling in 3d design and modeling (mostly in Maya) and I would be very interested in learning how to build custom content for NWN2 (clothing, armor, hats, hair whatever). If anyone has any knowledge of this or good links to those who do, let me know please.
Past PCs: Kasimir Mace, Janus Faust, Morten Gundrhamn

The waves were dead; the tides were in their grave, the moon, their mistress, had expired before; The winds were wither'd in the stagnant air, and the clouds perish'd; darkness had no need of aid from them--She was the universe.

Hi Vintenar,

There may be more recent tutorails available but I managed to get as far as importing a model into the toolset after reading this...

Alright thanks. Hopefully it isn't all about 3ds max that all game modders seem to be about most of the time...
