This is actually something very funny that happened in the game Neverwinter Nights. Alright, I turned up the Violence Level (gameplay options I think) and while I'm playing, I blew some guy to pieces! He exploded! My reaction: I APPLAUDE YOUR DEATH, SIR, KABOOOM!!! [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

This didn't happen once: It happened REPEATEDLY!!! When I was attacked by ghouls, I had turned undead and they all exploded! I never had that much fun blowing up a fellow human being...preferably a stranger!

*KABOOM!!* Neeeexxxttt!!! Number three-hundred-fifty-seven!! [img]graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img]

What!? I have my violence level all the way up and the people only have a little squirt of blood come out of them, and then just fall down dead. I want to see explosion! LOL, Any suggestions?

The violence level needs to be set on "special" for the extreme gore. You may have to change a variable in the NWN.INI file to open up this option.

IIRC this is what you do: (somebody please confirm this!!!)

The NWN.INI file is found in the NWN directory and you can edit it in notepad. The two variables you want to change,memory level and memory access are found under the "Game Options" heading. You want to change these variables to 2.

I don't know, I just change it to special in the Options screen in-game.

I couldn't change the settings in-game -it could only be "low" or "high".

So, I took Chewbacca's advice:

-the file you had to open was NWNPlayer.INI
changing the settings to 2 worked.


Hehe, KABOOM!!!

Perhaps you have some kind of filter in the game as a default over on your side on the Atlantic Ocean becuse I didn't have to change anything in the NWN.ini file to get some gore onscreen. I just changed the violence level to 'Special' in the Options screen.

Or maybe I have some kind of 'Mature' version of the game. *Thinks dirty thought about Sharwyn*
