I gotta ask, any way to make a throwing version of Gae Bulg?


Technically, yes.  The model could be copied over and made into a dart.  However, as soon as it left a character's hand, the flying model would revert to the default flying dart appearance, and for a short time the target creature would show a dart sticking out of them (not the spear model).  I think that woult ruin the look if a hurtful looking spear suddenly shrank down to a dinky little dart when thrown.

With things like darts, shuriken, and throwing axes, the game uses a single model for each while in flight.  If you change that model, every such thrown weapons will have the same appearance.  My snowball override does this for a little bit of fun (overriding both the held default dart 1 model (and icon) and the in-flight/stuck-to-target one).  Yes, you can have a snowball fight in NWN, and with the right item properties it wouldn't have to be fatal.

               A half day late, but I just emailed my submissions.

1 short sword (model + blueprint + script)
- on equipping, if the wielder is Lawful Good, it will gain the flaming VFX

1 spear (model + blueprint + script)
- on hit, has a 25% chance of activating the deadly magic...killing the target with no save or SR (if not a construct, elemental, undead, or ooze), but causing the loss of the spear until it's cut from the corpse (ie, looting the corpse to get the barbed spear back)

1 misc small golden apple (icon + model + blueprint)

1 golden apple placeable (model + blueprint)

1 magical staff (3 models + 1 misc small icon + 2 scripts + 4 blueprints)
- heavy scripting: 1 small sized misc item, that when activated becomes a club.  when club is activated, it becomes a quarterstaff.  when staff is activated, it becomes the misc. small item again.  if put down, any of the forms turns it into a massive pillar placeable.  if pillar is clicked on, it becomes a quarterstaff in owner's inventory
- set up so that the item has a "true owner", and only the true owner can turn it from a pillar into a staff (done via local variable).

2 portrait sets (for placeable apple and staff/pillar)

               MJÖLNIR, the hammer of Thor. Derived work from thefree3dmodels.com. The hammer is available for warhammers and also for throwing axes. This is my way to create a throwing version.

However I think that the project would need some scripts, that are over my skills, to considering it finished. Like something to fake a returning effect, and perhaps something to increase it weight over the option in the aurora tolset....

               The Mjolnir photo should take you to the project page, which worked fine for me.
