Does this mean you're not including this model, or does this mean that it will be a separate model with it's own appearance.2da line rather than an override?

               No longer tentative and yes on override is how I interpreted it, though the latter is easily changed if one knows what they are doing.

               @The Amethyst Dragon:
She will be a separate model with it's own appearance.2da.

@Malagant:
It's a tentative, because is my first try with an skinned creature, and the problem with the hands position when uses two-handed weapons, persists.

               Well, I had that completely backwards, didn't I?

               Hope you get it figured out. That's an amazing model.

Half-orc shaman head, based on the art of Todd Lockwood. Well actually I don't know if the guy in Lockwood's picture is a half-orc; However he looks quite close to them for me...

'Image

It could use some visual filler under/around the ears I think. The picture has skull wrapped dreadlocks that come down in front of the torse to visually fill in that space. Filling it in with grey hair would work, right now it looks a little hoodlike.

/ not that I could do better, because I couldn't.

               More dreadlocks equals to more vertex; and you can't use too much of them with NWN models...

               Just a little thought, but we're halfway through this challenge and the only person definitely making anything appears to be Shemsu-Heru? Is no one else making anything (no I am not discounting the possible pre-fab mentioned earlier in the thread)? My excuse is I can't think of anything flat that would fit the theme. So what's your excuse?

               I'd love to contribute, Tarot, but I am swamped.

I have two systems that work with this month -
  • my terrain system (along with ranger/druid feats and spells - including tracking)
  • expanding innocuous fmailiars to all pets...
But then again, i'm not clear that anyone has used the familairs i made back in january - other than myself.

If I can get some other stuff done I might contribute one of those, but... maybe in the future when things wuiet down.

I just haven't put much thought into it yet.  I procrastinate.  Always have. ':?'

I think I will take on "wilderness trap" placeables...simple ones that could be roughed out of materials in the wild.
- swinging spiked log
- simple ground-level noose
- simple tripwire made of rope or leather
- wooden version of a spike trap

As far as flat things go, how about these?
- short blood trails
- ground scratch marks (turkey, deer, etc.)
- dirt or sand drag marks
- scattered fur or feathers with some minor amount of blood (aka, "something was eaten here")

               @Henesua I wasn't thinking of you. I am well aware that some people are very busy. I was hoping to get other people to join in.

@AD You'll find that I made short (extensible by placing one after the other) blood trails a while ago and included them in my bloodbank placeables. Of the others, apart from using an invisible placeable, aren't scratch marks too small to see in NwN? Again the same applies to the something was killed here idea as well. Also, I am not absolutely sure what you mean by drag marks for ordinary graound (for sand they would have to be 3d because sand is so loose)

               Some suggestions as to what I would like to see in a NWN wilderness.

1. Some herbs/berries/muhrooms with certain properties upon eating.  Mainly low level healing and small buffs. A few could have unintended side-effects (e.g. if you eat more than a certain amount you fall asleep or get dazed).

2. A predator with 'stalker' AI:  When it detects you, it goes into stealth mode and stalks you until it gets close and makes a successful sneak-attack.


3. Camouflaged hide-outs, e.g. a lean-to with a roof of leaves, a turf house that really blends in with the forest/shrubbery, trees with large holes in them (with a set of glowing eyes inside that can be turned on/off).


4. Paths made by animals  (would probably have to be associated with particular tilesets to properly blend in).

5. Animal holes and burrows (rabbits, badgers, foxes).

6. Some more 'wilderness' outfits - sown skins or furs; fur hats?

7. A number of placeables which would work as triggers for 'Searching the ground/shrubs/rocks for stuff' purpose.  Basically partly overgrown small to larger piles of stones and rubble.

8.  Fresh, half-eaten and half-rotten animal corpses, in particular: Deer, Boar, Horse, Bison, Moose and other various herbivores, goats, rabbits. Also more animal skins and bones.

9. A useable hammock (I know it's unlikely, but one can dream). '<img'>

EDIT:   

Placeable wood/stone holes of differnt sizes that can be stuck  onto stuff with single or multiple glowing eyes that can be turned on/off or that fade in/out with time OR (if that's even possible) floow the viewer as he walks by them. ':ph34r:'

Walking shrubs with legs.... and shifty eyes.

Camouflage clothing made of leaves and twigs that makes you look like a shrub.

If CCC accepts custom scripting, may i propose some outdoor custom speed boots ? I need to do these for my OEWTP module (a forest adventure that could probably benefit from this month CC Challenge) and perhaps this can be of interest to someone else.

My idea is to have simple magic running boots giving a boost in speed, limited in effect duration but unlimited in charges. This is to replace the standard HASTE boots for low level characters, without the massive CA increase and other extra advantages permahaste provides. I intend to have some use restrictions: works only outdoor, maximum speed only enabled in the wild, etc.
