CEP 2.3 / CEP 2.4
The Community Expansion Pack (CEP) is a large hak pak collection of community-made custom content. Most of the included material comes from content previously posted on the Neverwinter Vault by independent users, with additional content developed specifically for the CEP. Included content is organized to function properly together, with necessary updates made to models, scripts, and .2da files. The CEP is intended to be a "universal" download - players can download this single package to access a large number of modules and persistent worlds that otherwise would have each required their own individual downloads.
Builders using the CEP for their module have the option of selecting which CEP content appears in-game. Custom content from the CEP does not override default Neverwinter Nights content. The CEP has been very successful, and many long-term players have found the CEP to be as vital to Neverwinter Nights as the expansion packs.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The current version of the CEP is 2.4 (released March 14, 2011)
Version 2.3 is also available for download here.
Earlier versions will become available again as additional content from the old Vault is integrated to this newer Vault.

Text file tutorial:
In the Module Properties
Events tab
OnActivateItem set-to zep_on_activate2
OnClientEnter set-to zep_on_enter
OnModuleLoad set-to zep_on_mod_load
OnPlayerDeath set-to zep_o0_death
Your module MUST use these scripts or merge them with your custom scripts in these nodes. C.R.A.P. will not work unless you use these scripts.
zep_on_activate2 was changed for 2.3 and the C.R.A.P. portion was accidentally removed. This script has been fixed, however it has only recently been added to the updater -- this is not available in the NWNVault CEP 2.3 download.
I am putting this tutorial together and will post a 2.3 CEP C.R.A.P. starter module with this file and the updated script on the NWN Vault.
ONLY WORKS WITH CEP 2.3 and earlier.
CEP v1.X Installer is an all in one installer for all CEP v1 files.
This installer will place all files that were previously only available in separate downloads.
This .exe file will enable play on all CEP v1 compatible modules and servers up to the NWN
1.68 update. If there are any questions or problems in regards to this download, please post
here or visit the CEP forums at http://cep.veiled-in-mists.org/forums/

CEP for Zombies OR -- HOW TO INSTALL CEP -- for those of you who have no clue.
We hope to have a movie on this process in the near future as well - this and the movie are being done by community members who felt the need -- We are all very grateful.
The Text and Pictures will work for installing CEP -- If you are someone saying, I don't get it - what do I do to install this - how, where and so on - THIS IS FOR YOU!!!
Here it is - as of 01/12/2010 was up to date - it is of course not up to date anymore since some tileset features were updated last night. As i said before, what is up here will always be behind the latest - it is not posted in a timely manner and the upload procedure for large files is slow, so not something we do all the time.
This is the first release with a tophak called cep 2.3 but, at present that tophak is identical to the updater 2.2 tophak. CEP 2.3 tophak will, in time, change as 2.3 moves forward but the fact is, via updater, 2.2 and 2.3 as of this moment were identical - hak order identical, no differences.
There are some new doors and tilesets to come yet and a few other things but this is it for now and a big lot of IT, it is. Tilesets, 708 creatures, oodles of placeables, fixes, compiled models, redundancy reduction, faster loading, far less problems from crashes or lag, DMTS, and more more more.
THIS IS THE LATEST -- DOWNLOAD THIS ONE. 01/12/2010

new ridable creatures
&
new ridable creature widgets
This is for easy import into your own module
The blueprints will import to these locations:
Widgets are on the item palette:
Custom/Special/Custom2
Creatures are on the creature palette:
*CEP 2.1 Custom Palette/*DM Specific/Mounted/custom1
Import these to your module to have them work.
This is the latest and greatest CEP version. If you are here to get the CEP THIS IS THE VERSION FOR YOU!!!
New Ridable creatures and clothing, some new placables including my bone walls, spire and arch, and some other odds and ends.
This is not the end - there will be updates with more materials as we get them done but this has been a long time in coming and the community needs this now.
Since the link to the old Vault is as dead as the Vault itself, and also seems that Rolovault has no files under: http://neverwintervault.org/rolovault/projects/nwn1/hakpaks/7849 (no snapshot was made - apparently), the best link to check details on CEP 2.3/2.4 might be this one:
http://web.archive.org/web/20130707011901/http://nwvault.ign.com/View.ph... (very good snapshot made by the Wayback Machine on 2013-07-07).
Are any of the files missing or outdated? I recall that this page was saved separately..
Sorry, I'm confused which attatchments do I download?
I actually recommend the newer version of CEP, v2.60.
I'm typing from my phone so hopefully you can find the link easily with a search for "CEP 2.60" ;-)
As for which files, never winter nights.info has a great page on installing both CEP and Project Q
CEP 2.60 - http://neverwintervault.org/cep
FP!
Thanks!
Is there anything similar, but for NWN2?
Does anyone have the numbering for the clothing? There are loads of blank bits in the clothing that I would like to fill with something, and errors at the end of the clothing numbers for some options like the arms.
I 'd like to endorse this hak pack for my own module with a vote.
