Yeah 'we' did.... too bad I had to rub your bruised bottom since you kept getting knocked on your arse! ;D By the way, I think you still owe me a cut of the loot from that venture!

[Grozer]

Ah such warm welcoming little creatures...

[Grozer]

These are a continuation from Ed's screenies.... these are kinda old I thought I posted them up already.

A welcoming party


Umm.... look!


Sundar preparing a cage for the vessel

[Grozer]

OK this was some of the funniest RP ever for me... Laurk you are great in this character!! Careful I think Pika is going human! ;D

Jake the obnoxious hin decided to copy Logan the Sunite monk's look.. problem with that is, he doesnt have the ripped chest and six pack abs! LOL Gods that was too funny last night...

[sneakingyoda]

Seriously, I was laughing so hard I teared up. Some of the funniest rp I have ever experienced in my time on this server. I could barely type! I'm glad you got a screenie.

[Grozer]

Reflecting and considering...

Not wearing a shirt -does- make a difference!

I forgot I had these... from a recent trip to the Underdark:

Lolth is a pansy!

[EDM Neo]

Nice shots... although... does anyone else find it a bit odd that Ranan is in *exactly* the same pose, ready to strike, in each of those pictures? As is every drow? *scratches his head*

[megascorpion]

Ranan studied drow fighting techniques? Or the drow studied Ranan's fighting techniques..?

[EDM Entori]

animation mod to prevent crashes? basicly sets the animations back to the original nwn camagins. Used to use it on higher ground kept me from crashing every thirty seconds when you got 20 level 60 players Ripping magic All over the place...

maybe its an idea, to stop crashes here, but you character looks like robot if you use it

[ShadowCatJen]

Does that help with just general client side graphics lag as well? Would think it would. Which I knew about that months ago.

[Grozer]

Now you know if you find Veshal gutted. ;D

I'm not really sure what you're talking about. Grozer is using the combat animation override, which changes his animations. It's a voluntary choice and he could stop using it by just removing the override from his override folder.

The override is why he and the drow both have those wide stances.

[Grozer]

Really? I dont recall adding any override?

[Munroe]

You may not remember it, but your screenshots indicate it. That wide stance you're using isn't the standard NWN combat stance.

It looks like you're using the Alternative Combat Animations v2, however I can't find a copy of that to tell you the name of the file to look for in override. (The poses in Alternative Combat Animations v3 are different and the file name may be as well.)

[Munroe]

Ok, I found the Alternative Combat Animations v2. It has different combat animations by race, so you may not be using it since you're clearly using the same animation as those drow. Maybe you have Alternative Combat Animations v1.

OK, I found my copy of Alternative Combat Animations v1. (I never throw anything away):

Here is the latest version of my Alternate Combat Animations pack(v1.0).

What's included in v1.0:

1)Unarmed Combat Anims -
Low-guard stance and Shaolin open stance,
flurry of punches for close-in attack,
double roundhouse kick,
flying kick

2)Two-weapon fighting anims -
two alternate stances,
spinning attack for "reach" anmation

3)Polearm animas -
changed the way polearms are wielded (hands closer together),
2 new stances,
spinning strike,
altered standard attacks to make them more fluid.

To use this pack, just unzip and copy the a_ba.mdl and a_ba_med_weap.mdl files into the override folder.

Note: the polearm anims are optimized for a new set of double-weapons I am working on. I've included one set in this pack - just copy the files starting with "wdbsb" into the overide to see them. They replace the black version of the first double-sword models. I hope you guys enjoy playing with these as much as I did making them. Comments, and suggestions are welcome.

I'll try swapping out my override folder to see if I can duplicate that stance with one of the overrides so I can tell you for sure.

[Munroe]

Well...it isn't v1. Here's the checklist:

v1: Nope.
v2: This appears to be the one you're using.
v3a: Untested
v3b: Untested
v3c: Untested
v3d: Untested

I'll update this post as I test them so I stop cluttering up your picture thread.

I tested v2 on Lydia and as a side effect it also makes the necks of female characters shorter. This appears to be the case in your screenshots as well. This picture, for instance, the female's hat is so prominent because it's not on her head, it's above it.



These are the files that are in Alternative Combat Animations v2. You'll find them in your NWN\override folder.

In addition to those, the Alternative Combat Animations v2 also includes a weapon model override which you may have. It consists of three files and replaces the black two-bladed sword model.

Hnn... this would look nice next to the fireplace.


Who says you cant be utterly evil and not take pleasure in some of the more simple things? Yes Ranan does have a romantic side. (kidding)




With Bloodstil dead, I thought it would be ok to post some of the screenies now. I need to dig around to find others though I dont believe I have that many. Here are two of my favorites... a bounty hunter is looking for Ranan:

Ranan arrives in his personal chambers (can you see the disarmed trap that the visitor so kindly left behind seeing how it did nothing to deter him).


Ranan thought he snuck away and covered his tracks.

[Grozer]

Proof that Padrin now worships Ranan.

Hahaha. You jerk! We were having a moment!
