Part one is availible for download. You can either use the update button within the program to get this mod or download it here

I think its a great mod. reminds me a bit of Planescape. Unfortunatly, you 'have' to start as a lvl1 char...

I haven't actually played this yet - I'm downloading now and will let you guys know what I think. Anything new and NWN is good - especially if it's functionality that enhances the building experience. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, we are getting an MP group together to play it. I guess I will be a Paladin, again.

Well, I personally like the opening scene(Not spoiling it for those yet to try it).
Its truly enhanced the capability of the game engine.
That again, with capable scripting, almosy anything can be done.

I don't think that mod. is very suitable for MP, since it seems to center around the main character a bit too much..

Well, I tried it. It's.. neat, so to say. I need to try more. It has some features, which are neat and not in original plot, but then again, it's natural, I mean the people learn more tricks of the trades and do more cooler things.

What bugs me is that there's no XP from killing mobs. You get XP only through the plot advancement and such. Heck, you will probably miss a lot of XP because you didn't ask question X before question Y, because answer to question Y ends the dialogue, not to mention possible story twists. I say that levelling up in WW will be a pain.

In any case, need to try more, had limited time to try it out yesterday. As far as the story goes, this might be something pretty interesting.

Through the first part, 3 times now. Probably missed some XP, char is only lvl 3. The plot is interesting, I just want bigger areas and such [img]smile.gif[/img] But yes, it's interesting and gaining of XP is also... different. Waiting for the second part to move on.

When I look at the Bioware site I see that only Witch Wake I: field of battle is the only one available for download. However, when I used the update function, I found that it installed ww2 – The Witch Hunters. I have not tried this module yet.
