If you are using Linux, read the comments below for details on how to get it to work.

Hi Varis Roft,
I downloaded and tried this module. I got an error and it would not load past the point where I had to choose a charater or create a new one. Here's the log:

[Sat Jun 27 16:05:41] Loading Module: Giants of the Hills
Could not load the Module.
Missing required custom talk table.
Any ideas?

Do you have the required Project Q? Is its .tlk file in your tlk folder?
Oops. I missed that. I'll add it and try again. Thanks!
Try that and see if it works. I may have to fix something on my end, because I work on linux, so the tooset converts it all to lowercase to be helpful. Then, it doesnt convert it back when it loads the module, so I had to create a link, which might not work right.
Normally I play under Linux (latest NWN:EE, Ubuntu 18.04 + Steam). Even after installing and double-checking the Project Q install, then reverting it to v3.0 without the later v3.1 patches, I still got the same error at the point of creating or selecting a character.
I rebooted to Windows 10 and repeated the process, installing Project Q 3.0 (without the v3.1 patches) then the module and it worked just fine.
I suspect you're correct in proposing a cross-OS resource-naming or similar problem.
Out of curiousity, how our you running the toolset under Linux?
Hi Varis Roft,
Your supposition was correct. I changed the name of the Project Q tlk file from "projectQ.tlk" to "projectq.tlk" under Linux and the module loaded fine at character selection. I was able to start it.

I got the module working (see above) and it was a cool work out for the Lvl 7 paladin I whipped up. Just the sort of thing to keep one busy while the wizard and cleric are off in some musty old library somewhere. (8-P
it's also a good intro to Project Q which I didn't know before. Gave it 8 stars - works as advertised!
The pens are completely overcrowded. The peasant should be grateful, that there is a nice giant who helps him to get rid of the abundance ...
Three very nice areas, even in 1.69. Well made!
