NWN Projects list and news

[Legacy_Shadooow]

               Hey guys, Im one of the peoples that using Project feature from this new forums, and I noticed, that particulary NWN Projects are very underated and neglected. Why is that? There is plenty of project for NWN and I must say all of them sound very good. However no one bother to discuss there and those projects looks like "one man show" (although they mostly are ).

I figured, maybe not all of you knows about how projects works, where to find them etc.

Each project have a discussion board there where you can read developers notes and discuss about the project. Then there is comment feature, not sure what for, but if there is not thread where you could express you like that project, you may use comments. In files, you can download some stuff. In galery there will be probably a few images...

Very important and hidden feature is the "Popularity +" button in the Project Details table at right side. Click on it if you like that project. This is also used when browsing projects...

This LINK will show you all projecs for NWN.

Now few particular NWN projects (ordered by current popularity):

Community Patch Project - large collection of fixes and changes in attempt to make first NWN1 unofficial patch
NWNX - essential extension for PWs
NWNShader - graphical extension, that allows new graphic features
Wildlands & Wild woods tilesets - more awesome _six's tilesets
Fighting SFX - sound and music adjustment
D20 Modern - An NWN adaptation
Solaufein - Singleplayer module
Fox spells - new features and fixes for spellscripts

(If you want your project to be adde into list, or change description just PM me)

               I'd love to help woth the comunity patch (unoffical patches are always awesome) but I have  very little knowledge of coding, with that said I'll try to spread the word, this game is to damn awesome to let it die

               Well said ShaDoOoW,

this should be stickied.

The Neverwinter Nights projects section deserves more attention.
GOOD stuff aplenty is buried in there.

Give it a look. Download it. Try it. Comment it.
+ADD to its reputation if you like it.

These authors still mod the game. See all they have done!

               Well said. I recently created a project for my WIP PW/module/setting/content, and it's already proved pretty useful (it certainly saved me time not needing to set up a forum).

               Very good thread idea ShadoOow.



Because they dont appear in my recent activity feed unless they are friends I miss a lot of what happens in projects I think. People like me need a kick in the bum to check projects.

               In the Dragon Age community, we've had some problems with the projects listing on BSN, because so many of the entries have no download, and the official classification is unreliable (e.g. Mass Effect project listed as NWN).

So, we're now operating a Community Index of BSN Projects for Dragon Age.

Although NWN is not in our scope, we have been keeping a URL list for NWN projects that meet our criteria, as an audit trail of projects excluded for a good reason. Currently, there are only four, but no doubt there will be more.

If anyone would like to make a similar index for NWN, let me know. Our method is in the public domain, as part of a continuing commitment by Open House to sharing knowledge and assets in gaming communities.

               Yeah ShadoOow, that's very true. I think the feature lacks easy finding/browsing functions. I myself don't follow my own projects, because I rarely think of them when I check these forums and nothing reminds me they here... so, its not surprising not many people look for these. I suppose some added features to the forum could help this but It doesn't seem like Bioware intent to improve those :/

                >>>>> Stickies!!!!! '>

If a projects list isn't stickied, nothing should be.
Futur goes forward, not backward.
So goes NWN.

               Why are all the projects creation dates the same as the updated dates... every single one was the same... are none of them updated? Or is it just a bug.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Shadooow]

               I guess the updated date is changed only if you change description of the Project which I guess non of us did.

               I'd nominate the Neverending Nights - NWN Machinima to be stickied. Been going since 2004... A lot longer than many things in the NWN Community! :-)

Off topic, there is a stickies thread - perhaps you meant to post this there?

Be well. Game on.

P.S. On topic, is anyone working on the nwn version of what the posters above did for the DA projects?

There is a Off Topic Sticky Suggestion thread? Yeegads, I didn't see it?

And as for the Dragon Age Machinima - I assume you mean Warden's Fall (which is Episodes 01-05).
