Weapon and Racial Feats!

[Legacy_Der_Arschgeiger]

               I've another question.

How is it that racial and weapon feats have certain purposes assigned to them?

Another question - is it possible to separate towershields from the 'shield proficiency' feat and then make a new feat for them to separately engage?

How is it that the weapon feats allow for you to 'focus' in certain weapons? I'm trying to make it so one of the Dwarven racial feats gives a dwarf the use of dwarven waraxe. I've done this in the baseitems.2da, but while it can be held - it doesn't allow it to be focused in. Anyone have insight on this?


And lastly - how does one designate how a weapon is fit to be finessed? I want to make scimitars finessable.

Thanks again community!

               First this is should be in the CC forum.

Racial feats can be assigned in the baseitem.2da ReqFeat0, ReqFeat1 etc..  to be allowed to use that item. So for the tower shield you would make your feat and make the tower shield base item feat required point to that feat. Similar to the baseitems, the feat.2da has similar feat checks, to give you dwarf the ability to focus in dwarven waraxe you **** the required feat then down the row more you will see orFeats use these both. Put the exotic weapon feat in one and the stonecutting feat in the other. This will allow the dwarf to focus in dwarven war axe without haveing exotic weapon feat and still function normally with other PC. If you are confused all this has already been done in my HR base. I just fixed the weapon focus and will be in the next update. Look over the .2da for comparison. Good luck

Oh lastly weapon finesse is hardcoded, sorry.

               With the questions you have been asking you may also want to download and read the Aurora Engine Documentation
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Der_Arschgeiger]

               Thank you both. What is this Aurora Engine Documentation?
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Lightfoot8]

               NWN is built on the Aurora engine. It is most of the common file formats used in the game. They will also explain most of the 2da's.
 90% of everything talked about on the boards was derived from that documentation at one point or another.

               I kinda thought that, just wanted to clarify. Also - I've done as Shadow has said and it still isn't working, I still can't focus in it. I'll keep at it.

Weapon focus feats only apply to a certain row of baseitems.2da.  If you are creating a new row, it will not work, even if you use the same base item.

               Mm. I'm not sure if I follow? Do you guys know of any direct guides to this? I'm trying to learn by comparison. I've haven't made anything 'new' persay, I'm just trying to use what there is to accomplish this.

How I have it set up, it'll only take stonecunning or exotic as what determines your ability to focus in dwarven waraxe.

But I want it to work like the elven weapon proficiency. You are able to focus in those weapons, but do not need martial, as its a racial thing.

My brain~

feat.2da, line: 952 and 954, collumn OrReqFeat0 -> 227

EDIT: lines 953,955> not!

               I'm putting 227 there and it seems right. Still is not working. I've been putting the file in a hak pack and its got load priority in the mod. Hmm.

If one of you could copy the line and show me what it would look like 'correct' that would be a nice learning experience for me. I've already learned a lot, this just doesn't seem to want to work smoothly though.

Oh: And thanks!

Do you guys see anything wrong in there? That is the feat info. I've changed the feat for the requirement now to 'battle training orcs' - as I'm going to use stonecunning as a free feat for custom domains I'm making. I'm going crazy! I can't seem to figure what the issue is. It's in the oReq area, no idea why it won't function.

               Also - would it be possible to assign a druid feat a connection to animal domain?

animal domain is script based, except those extra spells for cleric. If you want ot give druid cats grace you need to do it in spells.2da, same with polymorph self.

For better summons, you only need the domain so you can give a druid this domain while levelling up via cls_feat_druid.2da or bonus feat applied on skin.

Or easiest, simply edit the spell nw_s0_summon and on the line where it checks animal domain add "|| GetLevelByclass(class_TYPE_DRUID,OBJECT_SELF) > 0;
