Custom Content Challenge: September 2013: Arcane Space Stuff

[Legacy_Tarot Redhand]

               Just in case anyone missed it, I have set up a new group called NwN Spelljammers, in order to advance the cause of Spelljammer in NwN. Currently anyone who wants to can join but members of the cc community are especially welcome. Once this months ccc is finished (Tuesday?), I'll start throwing a few things out there for members to discuss and think about (and maybe even inspire some to make something).

Tossed a bunch of the ship-creatures in the middle of the mothball fleet and watched the show...


Not bad, but needs some fireworks to spice it up :-)

I've emailed the link to the SJ4NwN contrib.

It includes Pen's Neogi, don't know if she'll get around to doing her's seperately...

She's being very quiet lately ;-/ Shadowdancers are like that, though...

It also includes Tarot's Loadscreens and some skyboxes from his Fun Skies that really fit the theme.  Edit: Again, don't know if he's contributing them seperately...

And your Helm and Scavvers.

And Shemsu's Autognomes.

I really want to thank all of you for giving me an early chance to incorporate these things. It helped a lot, even if it did make for a few frantic weeks ;-P

               Breaking stuff down by author now (for those that want to pick and choose from the stuff that's brand new for this month).  Will include the full download as well for those that want that.

sorry for delay, Assassin Creed happened

anyway, the Ship Combat System (note its no longer turn based) is on the plan, but it will take a bit more time than I expected to finish, will publish on a SJ4NWN project

               CCC September 2013: Arcane Space Stuff is now online.

               I see there's an unused Dracon lurking around in the creature files there. I also see the animations are not playing well on it which is a bit of a pity

Also, the skins for various beholders which look to be from this old pack

Also, looks like the 3rd edition baby Neogi doesn't work due to the rename of the adult version. You'll have to go in and edit its animbase to be "neogi3e" rather than just "neogi"

               @Mecheon thanks for that link to the beholders.

               No problem, obscure Vault content is my thing

They're the oldest Beholders on the Vault, and I've not been able to find the model they were originally based off. But they include Spectators, which no other Beholder pack on the Vault does

I left in quite a few goodies that aren't quite ready for prime time. My hope is someone will get inspired and jump in :-)

Hellfire did a *lot* of work on those Dracon, and I want to get to them... as soon as I get some other things done :-P They are just crying out for a skinmesh to show off those heavy wrinkles and massive form.

Edit: Also, I removed the Beholders and Illithid, as I thought they were covered by expansions. But perhaps we should update the Spectator using the Bioware beholder model and slip it back in...

Also, looks like the 3rd edition baby Neogi doesn't work due to the rename of the adult version. You'll have to go in and edit its animbase to be "neogi3e" rather than just "neogi"

Heh. It *was* working... at one point... when i tested it... before I changed the naming scheme to accomodate the 2e neogi...

*sigh*

A Neogi fix is on the project page.

               Rolo you don't actually need the Spectator for sj whereas the Orbus and Hive Mother are pure sj - AFAIK they don't occur in any other setting and so are needed.

               If you wanted them to match, wouldn't be too hard to get a half decent Orbus out of the standard beholder at least. Delete the teeth, shrink it down, reskin

Dunno if you'd want the Hive Mother to be from the Ghzorb version or the standard, though. Mind, I use Q so I tend towards the Ghzorb ones
