Yeah, those look MUCH better then the WoW ones I made. Their faces look all mashed together, but I suppose that can't be helped. XD

Yikes! Thank you very much. I really appreciate your words.

To tell you the truth... As far as I'm concerned, Neverwinter Nights has been "where it's at" for the past six years. It has to be one of the (if not *the*) most moddable games out there; in fact, it was really *made* to be messed around with. And it doesn't hurt that it's actually based directly on D&D. Looks good for a game that's six years old, doesn't it?

The one I'm least happy about is Belkar - I actually had to use a gnome for him, since the only bald male halfling head I could get had a monk headband. Unfortunately, all the gnomes in NWN have inexplicably large arms...

Anyway, with a positive reception like this, I think I'll make some more! Linear Guild, Team Evil, Sapphire Guard, etc.

[Chronos]

I like how the NWN Haley seems to be blending into the background. Hide is, after all, her best skill.

And bulging muscles or no, I think the WoW Elan looked better as a human. But then, I tend to put more emphasis on hair for identifying people.

Some shots of Team Evil in NWN. It wasn't as easy to do this because there aren't that many dynamic models for non-player races/characters.

I can't see anything. Any way to fix that?

[Ghastly Epigram]

Man, that makes me want to go and get NWN. Those are really, really good. Though Elan's hair looks rather weird. But Xykon is pure awesome sauce.

[Querzis]

All of those are great, especially WoW Haley and NWN Xykon.

Edit: NWN Sabine is also really great (and sexy).

[Estelindis]

Lupy: when you click the "show" part of the spoiler box, is there a broken image or something? Because I can see the pictures no problem, once I un-spoiler them.

Ghastly Epigram: I agree, NWN Elan's hair isn't that great. However, it is the only head I could find that had a matching "twin" with a goatee for Nale, as you will see below...

Further experiments: the Linear Guild!

Is that NWN or NWN2?

[Estelindis]

It is NWN - the original, not the sequel.

Kinky.

[mikeejimbo]

But, I don't remember Lutes in NWN. Does that include one of the expansions?

[Estelindis]

Kinky.

Well, she *is* an incarnation of illicit sex.

But, I don't remember Lutes in NWN. Does that include one of the expansions?

The lute isn't official NWN content - it's custom content. Like I said earlier in this thread, NWN is *really* moddable. This particular item was created by the wonderful Lisa - if you're looking for it, you can get it in her holdables pack or in a big custom content compilation known as the Community Expansion Pack v2.

In case anyone is in any doubt, I have quickly made a NWN2 Roy. You will soon see that the games do not look very similar:

Well, I'm impressed. Was that really made using the NWN character generator, or did you fudge it?

[Estelindis]

Well, I'm impressed. Was that really made using the NWN character generator, or did you fudge it?

Thank you. And you'll be interested to know that, yes, it was really made using the NWN toolset! Of course, I am using custom content. (It's been a long time since I built without it.) But I didn't edit the picture except to crop it for size. I presume this qualifies as not fudging?

If you want to know how...
Umbrella: custom holdable, available from the same sources I linked in my previous post.
Base model: standard (dynamic) human body, skin set to pure black, and all body parts except for the one hand holding the umbrella set to 00.
Shadow-stuff: wings of the human body set to "fog: black" (CEP2 contains wings and tails that utilise the game's standard VFX models).
Done and dusted!

WOW! EXELLENT! SUPER SPECTACULAR! ANOTHER GENERIC COMPLIMENT IN CAPS AND BOLD!

I would suggest you make more, but there isn't anybody else left is there?

[Estelindis]

I applaud your interest! It really is the best bang for your buck that you can get in a game at the moment. May I go so far as to suggest you obtain it legally? It's really inexpensive these days because it's so old, plus you can only play multi-player (which is lots of fun) with legal CD keys.

(I would hate to think that I had been the cause of anyone downloading it illegally - I regularly chat with some of the devs, and they are all awesome, so I wouldn't want them to be deprived of their rightful pay. Of course, maybe you were talking about downloading it legally. For all I know, this may be possible - I'm just unaware of it. I've just only ever downloaded adventure modules, not the game itself.)

You're really talented, go on we want more!

Thanks! I have been messing around with this game for years, so I guess I know a bit about what it can do. Is there any character in particular that you would like to see?

Wow, Est. Those are awesome! Want me to put 'em on the front page?

You are very kind! That would be grand, if you're happy to do it.

Compliments in capitals *and* bold, no less? Goodness me! Well, I guess there are still some other characters out there to be made. People like Eugene, Celia, Julia, Pompei, Lord Shojo, Tsukiko...

[Fragon]

Lord Shojo(and Mr. Scuffry =P) can be fantastic!
(I don't think NWN can be more than 20$, don't worry i can find it for a cheap price on e-bay)

[David Argall]

looking pretty good, but...

MitD is in Darkness. It's not an invisible critter or anything. It is simply hidden from our view. So we need a deeper darkness here, maybe with what vaguely looks like a couple of large eyes staring out of it.

V still looks too male. That may be impossible to correct as the machinery tends to the ultra male or ultra female and humans are pretty good at guessing each other's sex as well, but we won't have a really successful V until we hesitate about saying "him".

I'll see if I can put together a Lord Shojo! Mr Scruffy will definitely be fine, as there is a little white cat in the CEP. And yeah, NWN plus all expansions can be gotten fairly cheaply if you look around.

Not possible without trickery. There *is* a smoke elemental with two glowing eyes that could be used, but it doesn't have any nodes that hold things, so it couldn't hold an umbrella. I guess I could make an invisible creature with an umbrella stand beside it and, with the right camera angle, it would look like the smoke elemental was holding it... But that'd be a bit cheap, really. I'd feel like I was cheating.

V still looks too male. That may be impossible to correct as the machinery tends to the ultra male or ultra female and humans are pretty good at guessing each other's sex as well, but we won't have a really successful V until we hesitate about saying "him".

I agree! You are quite right in assigning the cause... The game doesn't really allow for an androgynous look (though, of course, with the right custom content, it could). The only elf head I've seen that could be either male or female unfortunately has an expression that looks a bit... wired. Like the individual in question had eaten *way* too much sugar! Plus it's a bit ugly. Ah well, I may hunt about a bit more...

[hamishspence]

well, V does get expression a bit like that when elan is singing the Concentrate song in book 1. Also, when haley orders V to apologize to Elan, he says "But my Charisma is..." to be cut off with "..Not my problem!" so you could make a case that you are representing his low charisma. Though in the strip it is more his social skills.

Hmm, maybe swap their positions so they're leaning towards each other, instead of away? That might make them both look a bit happier.
