Hi, this is me again. I seem to have another problem. I am in Crypt Island, but the door to the crypts is locked, and the caretaker won't talk to me. Am I missing something? This is a very frustrating spot in an otherwise really enjoyable campaign.

What is the crafting and magic item creation situation in this module? Do molds, woods, skins, metals, essences, and gems drop? Are they for sale?

Hi Lamia,

If this is the first time you are going to crypt island, the door will not be unlocked.  Later in the game you will receive a quest which will allow you to go into the crypt.  There are a few places where things are locked initially, but later on, they are unlocked as the game progresses.

As a general rule in Islander, if you aren't specifically told to go in somewhere and you can't find a way past a door or obstacle, you should find somewhere else to go. Your companions will comment if there is an obstacle that can be tackled.

I only lock places for a reason. . But you are in the right area for that quest, you have to look elsewhere, not in the tomb.

Bert check the vault for your replies. Basically using the craft armors and armor feat is the main thing, I guess you can cast on scrolls too, not sure if i put any bone wands in. Your best bet is upgrading the AC on the custom armors in game as they are already stronger naturally and their extra AC doesnt count as "magic" so it all stacks nicely.

Thank you both for your replies.



*Mild Spoiler*



I was looking for the beetle plate armor and since the island is conspicuously empty, I figured I had to visit the crypts/tombs. I'll keep looking then ...

Hi!

Nice module but I've found some problems:

1) In crypt island I've found the beetle queen but she's blocked behind a rocky barrier, don't know if this mean I'll be able to grab her shell in another moment, but I've already managed to kill her without much problems (since she can't attack me while I can use missile weapons).

2) Everytime I run into the gith the game crash after the cutscene. It starts with the normal loading stuff, but as soon as it tries to autosave the game crahes.



Hope you can help me! :)

well #1 isnt a problem at all. Your companions are very direct in how to deal with the barrier. So since that conversation has passed, make sure you fully explore that cave (its not big). The solution is there.

As for #2, this like a few problems people email me about, has never happened to anyone else. When this happens in isolation it generally comes down to installation. So far the problems are in order

#1 you did not come into the game with an empty override (this was a requirement)
#2 you did something wrong in the install. But I doubt #2 unless you are missing a IslanderB folder in your modules directory.

Please return here if you need anything else or email.

Thank you for your quick answer.

I was able to resolve issue number one, as you made me notice I missed once conversation (-_- silly me).

The second problem continues, for now I resolved avoiding the trigger, even though it saddens me to avoid part of the story.

But what about the override folder?

Islanders override folders are all in their own folder in override called Islander or something similar.



It should be a simple matter to remove the other contens in override and get this working.



If somehow this is not the case, email me on deflepp194@gmail.com and I can show you how to unlock access to this area a different way using dormant debug tools.



If you wish to see this area strongly recommend you do the above or contact me if your override IS empty of other files before you get into the later townhall quests.

Thanks. I hope you didnt spell Eguintir with an A like you do in these forums ;)

Btw Reider (and others) did anyone have trouble after the first game fight? Normally guards approach you the second you exit the tent and its fine from there. One person reported nothing happened after and he was locked out of everywhere and rested and ended up breaking ahead into the game the wrong way, hence the patch that is now out. None of you need this if you met the guards without issue though.


I have this problem and all the latest patches.  But, my PC cannot rest anywhere.

There is only one patch now. The fresh install will place the guards there and make them speak. Even if they dont, u can speak to them yourself to start the conversation. They are beside the tent you exit from.

Your PC is not supposed to be able to rest, so thats a good thing. If you are installed correctly as far as you can tell, simply return to those ugly 3 tents near the lighthouse and talk to the guards.

I was wondering, when the hunter sends you to get him some meat, (once the gnome has added the green map notes to your map) and such is he supposed to trigger a new location for your rowboat to go to?



I kind of feel like I'm going around in circles with no quests or actions available.

Islander is positively the best adventure I have ever played in NWN2. The amount of care and skill put into it boggle my mind.



At first as was a bit put of because of the overide files included but that's a very small price to play it. The Voice acting is also a very good touch. I love the details such as people lying in beds with blankets over them, the birds and the music.



I'm playing it with the vault texture mods and it looks absolutely stunning!

Can the override files go in the campaign folder? No module relies on override anymore.

 People can do what they want. The override should be empty anyway or you will end up one of the 99 out of 100 people who email a bug related to them not emptying the override. So theres no real reason not to simply put the islander folder where it belongs. Most of it doesnt even override anything (it is original sounds, textures used by the new UI etc)

Very nice trailer! I have a number of current adventures and projects, but I'll definitely add Islander to my list. I love high-quality voice-overs since I find it really adds to good characterization.

The new spell VFX shown in the trailer are pretty too. I'm usually a proponent of "less is more" and being able to see my characters instead of glowing energy balls, but you've certainly done a nice job. The Shield effect (floating shields) is perhaps a touch silly for being so literal, but I definitely like the one I guess to be Mirror Image (purple ghostly images around the character).

That's certainly one solution. I'm also tempted, for my play-through, to create a hak out of the Islander stuff and associate it with the module myself (which is what most module authors do).

Islander update: patches have been included (and removed as seperate files) and now features a unified hak file.

Guess you 2 will have to find a new thing to create negative press over!

Note that this is not an indicator to ignore the "empty override" instructions as there are known 2da conflicts of the many features that make Islander as encompassing as it is. Nothing has changed on that front, your override folder should be as empty as ever before you begin.

Exceptions: can generally be made if you have a pure graphic or 3d model mod in your override: example texture updates, or weapon/armor/clothing updating modifications.

Who is creeping my vault submission!?



Interesting comment about "lack of PC weapons". He'll see.
