More TNO Placeables

More TNO Placeables v1.4

This package adds over 950 new placeables to the Neverwinter Nights toolset. The placeables are based off of original (OC, SoU, and HoTU) Bioware placeables and some patch 1.69 placeables. These placeables have been retextured to fit in the with the TNO style introduced with patch 1.69 and the Daggerford/Wyvern Crown of Cormyr premium modules. Some placeables have been reworked to fix defects or to make them look better (eg. the globe). Some placeables could not be done justice using only the Bioware provided textures, so some texture files are also included in the hak (eg. the butterflies and dragon eggs). There are also many new placeables to supplement the reworked and enhanced content (eg. the mine carts, boarded doorways).

Other notable inclusions are the additon of light sources that "flicker". This effect was seen on torches from the patch 1.69 content. Several light placeables have this effect applied (candles, flame placeable for streetlights). See the attached screenshots for different samples of placeables. Note that all types and variants have not been captured in the sample screenshots. Explore the hak yourself! Or better still, take a walk thru the included sample module which has all the placeables in it!

The placeables.2DA file is HOTU patch 1.69 compliant, and uses entries 900 thru 1866. The include .erf file provides blueprints for all the placeables in that range. The blueprints are templated from the original Bioware blueprints. New to v1.4 is Project Q compatibility (v1.6). The placeables.2DA file from Project Q uses entries 5001 thru 5967. There is a new included .erf file to provide blueprints for the placeables in that range for a Project Q based module. When importing the .erf, the
module will flag 205 duplicate resources (Project Q has some stuff from MoreTNOPLCs already in it) and you can choose to ignore or overwrite depending on whether or not you wish to keep the Project Q blueprints for those or overwrite with the MoreTNOPLCs blueprints.


Files

MoreTNOPLCs.hak --- This is the More TNO Placeables hak for HOTU patch 1.69 use

MoreTNOPLCs_v1_4.erf --- This is the More TNO Placeables erf for importing blueprints

MoreTNOPLCsv1-4.mod --- This is a demo module with almost all of the placeables used somewhere (it's crowded!)

qMoreTNOPLCs.hak --- This is the More TNO Placeables hak for use alongside MoreTNOPLCs.hak when using Project Q (v1.6)

qMoreTNOPLCsv1_4.erf --- This is the More TNO Placeables erf for importing blueprints when using Project Q (v1.6)


Usage

* If you are not using any other haks, just add the MoreTNOPLCs.hak file to your module. Import the MoreTNOPLCs_v1_4.erf file into your module and refresh the custom placeables palette. The 900+ placeables will appear under the various custom placeables menu entries based on type.

* If you are using Project Q (v1.6), add the qMoreTNOPLCs.hak and the MoreTNOPLCs.hak files to your module (in that order) ahead of all the Project Q haks. Import the qMoreTNOPLCsv1_4.erf into your module and refresh the custom placeables palette. The 950+ placeables will appear under the various custom placeables menu entries based on type along with all the Project Q blueprinted placeables. As noted above, when importing the .erf, there are 205 entries already in Project Q from MoreTNOPLCs. Choose whether to ignore or override these blueprints (personal preference - you don't lose content either way).


Enjoy!
