-   -   NiGHTMARE's NPC Beautification Pack Released! (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15296)

Being the underpaid modder that I am, I recently took on a second job and began moonlighting for The Gibberlings Three. Since CamDawg is also a tyrant, I was ordered to release *something* to maintain a worthwhile status. Thus, the NPC Beautification Pack was born. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Recently, NiGHTMARE overhauled all of the NPC portraits for BG2. Scars were healed, tattoos removed, and piercings were subdued. Glamor Shots is quite strict, it seems.

So, now you, too, can enjoy the airbrushed Athkatla gang via the ease of a WeiDU installer.

Hmmm....I like them better scarred...they are adventurers!

Great job! I always thought the NPC's to be too scarred for normal people (and even for adventurers!) [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Ahh, they're supposed to be like that Link, considering they go through.. well, I better not say and dump spoilers on everybody :rolleyes:

Great job though, but can you make them even more scarred? Hmmmm, challenge :D

I like the scars, but those portraits are nice. You're a modder, Ice? Can you make NPC and/or Romance Mods? I'm willing to pay by paypal once I get the story romance for Bryan done.

Well, yes, I am a modder, but I'm pretty wrapped up in my current mod, Unfinished Business, at the moment. Your best bet, if you don't want to learn how to mod for yourself, is to post your ideas at a modding community. Someone, if they like the idea, might take it up into production.

Hmmm that is strange...

I wanted to see what they looked like before I installed them, so I unzipped them to the desktop first. However, all the portraits look exactly the same as they normally do. Is this because when the DOS installation box came up it obviously couldn't find the dialog.tlk file?

Some of then *need* to be scarred, but I like Aerie better like this. Though in one of them the eyes look obviously wrong... And I'm sure I don't have to name names.

I also REALLY like the new Imoen with the longer hair that isn't quite so pink.

TheGodThatFailed 05-17-2004 03:37 PM

I really like the Minsc/Boo,i laughed really hard at that.Jaheira looks better too,but Keldorn and minsc and other warriors look better scarred IMHO.

Jerr Conner 05-17-2004 09:11 PM

Thanks for the advice, Ice.

I like Aerie better with longer hair myself. After looking closely, I noticed she did have short hair and that doesn't fit her, IMO. She seems like the type to let it keep growing.

I liked the tatoos on NPCs though. I thought it gave them a bit of personality.
