Questions on the Toolset

theholyavenger · 07-20-2002, 11:58 AM

1. Can you assign your own custom designed portraits to the NPC created in your own module? It's either that i missed it or that option is unavailable.

2. For our modules, can we program it so that we can hire or invite more than 1 NPC to be our henchmen?Just like it was in BG series?

3. How do we play our own movie in the beginning of the game just like it was in single player? And the movies at the end of each chapter?

Thanks!

here is a link to the NWN website that has a downloadable tutorial. http://nwn.bioware.com/builders/modtutorial.html It takes you step by step through building a module. Its 36 pages once you print it out and as far as I have seen it covers everything.

I just finished the tutorial and that's how i came up with these questions. As far as i know, the tutorial did not cover everything in the toolset. There is still a lot to explore, and obviously the tutorial did not have the answers to the questions i posted.

I saw a very buggy way to get more henchmen, go into the DM client, possess one of the hireable henchmen (daelan for example) and hire another one (boddynock), then possess another (sharwyn) and hire the first one (Daelan), then save, and load the game as a player and hire (sharwyn) and she will have her henchmen, you cannot do a whole lot with them tho, (subhenchmen) and telling them to level up makes them go on a killingspree, and totally lose it, as can a few other actions, you also will not be able to speak to the subcontracted henchmen as they are employed by someone else.

It's been pretty disappointing how the documentation on how to use the toolset has been sparse, to say the least. Unless you go and buy the Worldbuilder's Guide by Versus your only option seems to be to fiddle till you fluke something, I'm afraid. [img]graemlins/awcrap.gif[/img]
