[Thangorn]

ha.. yesh well I had the darkness spell prepared and I thought if I cast it on the area of the door it should work.. I didnt realise I had to use my spellcaster with the spell prepared to open the damn thing lol...

One thing I hate is the troll implementation.. trolls in this game still regenerate fire and acid damage and you can only use it to finish them off.. makes those two headed suckers pretty farkin hard..

Code: Select all

//::///////////////////////////////////////////////
//:: Name      PnP Style Troll Regeneration
//:: FileName  troll_regen_inc.nss
//:://////////////////////////////////////////////
/*
    Functions allowing PnP style regeneration for
    trolls. When implemented trolls will regenerate
    all forms of damage except Acid and Fire damage
    types.

    INSTALLATION
    ------------
    1.) Remove the Regeneration(+5) property from
        the hides of the trolls in your module
        (Custom templates will have to be used).

    2.) #include this file in nw_c2_default1.nss
        and nw_c2_default6.nss

    3.) Call
                DoTrollRegeneration();

        from nw_c2_default1.nss and save as custom
        OnHeartbeat Script. Place this script in
        your Trolls' OnHeartbeat event.

    4.) Call
                if (!GetIsDead(OBJECT_SELF))
                    DoTrollRegenCheck();

        from nw_c2_default6.nss and save as custom
        OnDamaged script. Place this script in your
        Trolls' OnDamaged event.

anyone know if this script will work with NWN2? If so I might make a troll override so they work proper like..

The first statement refers to the Onyx Cave. The last is a reference to Zecorian's Demesne, which is probably the second hardest fight in the game.

The trick there is to take out the vampire lord that heals the others first. Spells granting immunity to death magic and mind spells work well here.

Re: This and the Fallout 3 thread

USE THE FARKING SPOILER TAGS!

[Arkan Bladesinger]

Dunno why, but I never got hooked on OC nor MotB.

I did get hooked on SoZ, though.

Maybe it´s the non-linearity; I like sandbox games to an extent.

Anyway, I like this extension to the point that I think I´m getting excited about NWN2 again.

At least building for it when/if the new stuff is available.

[Riotnrrd]

What new Arcane spells are offered?

[hollyfant]

What new Arcane spells are offered?

Nothing much. The Orb line of spells and Reduce Person are the most notable, the rest are mainly variations of already existing buffs.

[PensivesWetness]

I started played SoZ a couple days ago, while on leave. Like it so far but i've found a bug or difficulty. It seems that i am missing some textures or something. specifically, when you're in the first town after being 'arrested', you gte told to go rest the inn before seeing the sa'saa chick. the inn isn't there. you see the foundation in the dirt but no building or any change in the tool tip icon for a door. the same thing occus on the overland map. i can see flags for the towns but can't get back into town. the same thing for anything i find, save the grave marker or the boar. my map updates but no interaction. is this gonna be fixed on the upcoming patch?

other than that, it's really cool running around with the halfling commandos (Mil, Gin, Soppi-clone & mugs-clone)...

[ElCadaver]

I like mine too.

My party consists of a FS/Fighter, Bard, Ranger, and Swashbuckler.

My Party, on the other hand, just ported in from Planescape and consists of

Powder - Air Genasai Wizard/Arcane Scholar
Gotubaru - Grey Orc Monk
Daktu Ja'vera - Drow Favored Soul/Warpriest of Kelvemor
Syssth Slaan - Yuanti Rogue/Shadowdancer/Invisible Blade
