How do I install this armor mod?
« on: May 05, 2014, 03:04:34 am »


               

I've been struggling for the past few hours on how to install this Armor mod at the Neverwinter Vault website:


 


http://nwvault.ign.c....Detail&id=6908


 


The author doesn't include any installation instructions, so I'm completely lost. Usually, I know how to install mods that come with just the .Hak files and mods that are only needed to be extracted to the override folder, but I don't know what to do with the .Erf. So, I download the mod and extract the .HAK and the .ERF file to their respective directories (.HAK and .ERF folder in NWN Directory).


 


I boot up the Neverwinter Toolset, went to EDIT --> MODULE PROPERTIES --> CUSTOM CONTENT and added the respective file associated with the mod (dlalisa_tikcar), then clicked 'OK.' Then, I went to IMPORT --> dLaLisa_tikcar.Erf (named of Erf that's part of the mod package), pick SELECT ALL, then click OK. Everything loads ok, then I exit and it asks if I want to save, then I do. I do all of these steps and the armor doesn't appear in the game, how do I add it?


 


I'm not sure if this mod adds an entire new set of armor or it just adds more PC customization parts (if anyone could clarify, I would GREATLY appreciate it).


 


If anyone knows how to install the mod, I would greatly appreciate it!! Thanks in advance!


 


***Also, I have version 1.69 and all of the expansions and premium modules if that helps.***

That kit seems to add a new part for slot 105 to just about everything, as well as a custom human head 177. If you have imported the erf to your module and joined the hak file, you should see a new Tika and Caramon entry, probably under npc's. There are also Tika and Caramon item blueprints added when the erf is imported. Not sure exactly where they got put in the templates list.

Okay, I managed to find the NPC model of Tika and Caramon. According to the author of the mod, she said that she made two NPC characters (male and female) available to be made into a premade character. How exactly do I make a premade character from the toolset?

The NPC entries are the pre-made characters. If you want to change anything about them you can edit them directly or right-click-> Edit Copy unless I'm misunderstanding what it is you want to do. If you're just wanting to use the pieces for your own NPC then you can find them under the Appearance tab when editing the character provided there isn't a conflict with some other hak.
