Topiary Guardians (Plant Creatures)

Original Entry: Topiary Guardians (Plant Creatures)

Time for some new plant creatures!

Originating with an inquiry on the BioWare NWN custom content forum (link), these creatures are re-textured and modified from some NWN models and a creature included in CEP. Each uses regular NWN animations and includes leaves that drop from underneath every once in a while.

This package contains 8 non-overriding creature models, textures, portraits, and a readme file that contains lines for merging into your own appearance.2da and portraits.2da files.

Included topiary guardians:
Bear
Boar (Dire)
Deer
Horse
Lion
Triceratops
Wolf (Dire)
Woman

Each of the compressed file formats contains the same files, so you can pick your preferred version.

Custom Content Notes:

1. The 2da lines included use the "plant" racial type used in the CEP. If you don't use the CEP, you'll want to change the racial type from 52 (plant) to 10 (construct).

2. If added to the tailmodel.2da, the topiary horse should be rideable, since it's based directly on the generic horse from the NWN files.

Feedback, comments, votes, etc. are welcome. Let me know what your druids (and gardeners) think of having more plant critters around. :)

Enjoy!
