NWNCX

[Legacy_Master Jax]

               Hey, everyone. I have been trying to download the NWNCX to give it a try, but the link sends me to a login, so I cannot. It seems the webpage is no longer available. Can anyone direct me to a working link? Thanks in advance!

               Thank you, Raven! However... err... aren't there supposed to be two versions of this? One for server and one for client? I was led to believe they were NWNCX and NWNSX respectively, but the file I downloaded and everything in the page is simply deemed NWNX... 0_o

               NWNX = server-side for PWs (NWN Extender)
NWNCX = client side for player game enhancemnt (NWN Client Extender)

There's also NWNTX = NWN Toolset Extender '>

               Thank you guys, I actually was able to download the older version of the NWNCX from another site, and it is working.

Leurnid, in order to make it work, you have to put all of the files contained in your NWNCX folder in the NWN main folder. If you patch your nwnmain.exe, it will look for the dll files there.

Dig through this thread until you find the latest download link, then read through the rest of the discussion about its use. The last post in particular is important to digest.

Don't be scared off though. THis is an amazing improvment to the toolset.

               For now, I'm uploading a copy of the up to date (version 0.2.1) .rar file to the Vault.  Just waiting on approval so that the link I changed on the neverwinternights.info page for NWNCX goes to the right spot.

This software expansion is just too good to let slide into oblivion.  I like my extra weapon visuals and speedy logins too much to not be able to recommend it to people. '>

               That's very much appreciated Amethyst, but, I hope you could clarify something for me... I thought the previous version was only missing some compatibility options for previously implemented changes, and those could be solved by adding the ipsomethingvfx 2da into override. Does the one you're uploading have any other improvements?

               The latest version (from months ago, I think, going from 0.2 to 0.2.1) makes it so that the game will still show default weapon visuals if the module/server doesn't use an iprp_vfx.2da file with the addition column that NWNCX reads.

I don't know what all was in version 0.1, since I first heard about NWNCX when virusman came up with the solution to an idea I had for adding new weapon visuals.

I had that problem when I used the "patch" option on my earlier NWN installation that had already been altered with a camera hack.  It worked for me once I replaced the camera hack version with the original game .exe, then ran the NWNCX "patch" program.

Note: Always keep a backup copy of your game software before making alterations.  You don't want to have to waste time to completely reinstall and re-update the whole game if something weird happens. '>

               So, the new version would not need us to drop the 2da in the override folder, I assume?

Correct.

               Ah, thanks for answering, Amethyst, and for uploading it as well!

               File is now available again through Vault hosting.  The NWNCX page at neverwinternights.info points to the correct download location.
