This is a model originally made to work with NWN back in the early 2000s, I belive 2004, by Doyleyboy in his module "Legacy - Dark Moon Rising". I also believe this model is found in the PC game "Vampire: The Masquerade", and was converted for use in NWN, but I could be wrong, just looks like a tree I have seen in that game. I have simply taken this older model found in one of his hak paks, and updated it for use in NWN: EE. I wanted to add PBR textures to the model, and had to redo the models UV to get this to work, so there is completely new bark texture on the tree itself, but leaves/branches are original. Included in this file are the.hak file .mdl, .mtr, .pwk, and all textures such as diffuse, normal map, ambient occlusion map (used to bake with the diffuse for a more realistic effect), specular, and height map. I increased the resolution for the texture maps to 1024x1024 to make them more crisp and clear. There is a subtle specular effect, that is distored by the roughness map. I used ShaderMap to create these for the most part, except the diffuse and ambient occlusion which was baked directly out of 3DS Max 2022. The model is scaled properly as before, no change and has proper collision. The Leaves and Branches also move with the wind as they did in his module. I used this before many years ago messing around with my own module tests, and after many years of not playing NWN, figured it was lost in time after the old vault was shut down. Luckily, I found it again, and hope, Doyleyboy does not mind I have done this. I did not see a contact link or a clickable profile link were his name was, so had no way of contacting him first. (sorry!). Again, most the credit goes to him for this work, I simply added new textures for the use in NWN:EE and made it it's solo hak pak for use in CEP 2.67. A Read Me is included within the .RAR file as well as the hak pak, and textures. This is my first every submission to the NWVault and hope to add more as my other projects bloom. Enjoy! :D

Well met.
Nicely done for your first submission. Neat tree with wind movement.
I hope that this is the fisrt of many.

Thank you! I just updated the file as I noticed the MTR within the Hak Pak file was referencing a height map and it did not look good. So the new MTR has excluded it. Maybe if somebody can properly make one, they can use it in the future, but until I can do it properly, by default I simply just left it out. :D I am already working on some bush models that move as well, and when I am happy with how they look and work, I will add them here. Eventually I will make a pack of foliage for everybody in the future.
Nice! "Legacy - Dark Moon Rising" was quite an atmospheric module. I think it was one of the first ones I played.
