New (Additional) Weapon Visual Effects (VFX)
« on: August 07, 2011, 07:52:05 am »


               Thanks to the work of virusman and his NWNCX (Neverwinter Nights Client Extender), we are no longer limited to the basic 7 visual effects for weapons!

I've just uploaded a package to the Vault, designed to add 44 new, additional weapon visual effects.  Once it's approved, it'll be available here:
New Weapon Visual Effects (VFX) - NWNCX

Players with NWNCX version 0.2 or later will be able to see these in-game (if the module/PW builder has the models added in a hak).  Players without NWNCX will not be able to see the new visuals, as they are still limited to 7 weapon visuals.  Apologies in advance to Linux and Mac players...currently NWNCX works only on Windows installations.

Here are the screenshots I took while making and testing the visuals.  I'm looking forward to seeing what people think about having more options after all these years (that aren't built right into weapon models or overrides of existing visuals). '<img'>

               Great Job AD, I love what you did with the gui and icons, and I love this.  I look forward to seeing it on the vaults.

               I uploaded a demo module today, since I neglected to do so when I first uploaded the visuals.

I blame the omission on lack of sleep. '-_-'
