The first person view where everything was an empty maze with walls, and no objects (but you could have creature graphics show up randomly to begin an encounter) and then it broke into overhead turn based mode in battle.

256 color, but it looked awfully close to EGA graphics for the most, 320x240 res.


Those were great games!

You were doing better than me, I was only playing it with 4 colors, none of that fancy 256 color stuff.

hes just the Lord of Murder. Don't puff up his ego with this god talk.



I didnt think UA supporte CGA graphics I was sure the box said VGA but maybe you have a different version. Either way the game was pretty pointless to me cuz i bought it, had one friend who played D&D and then he moved.

Thats why I never modded for NWN1, it never occured to me there might be an internet site with people who want to share modules.

Is anyone else surprised that NWN2 is **still** in the list of top ten sellers on steam? It's been listed there on and off for about a week now. I've seen it in second place one time but usually it's in sixth to ninth.

It must really be selling well considering it's competing with games like Black Ops, Civilization 5 and Left 4 Dead 2.

Is there anywhere we can see the sales numbers? I'm really, REALLY curious now.


All these new worshippers for the god of Murder... must be having a field day in his demi plane. Image IPB

Just know that being in the top 10 is an accolade to it's overall appeal. Imagine what might have happened had the game been properly advertised like NWN was or DA or Fallout? I have a feeling we'll see things grow a bit, but it's got to take a bit of time to promote the Official Forums over at the Steam forums (and it's a bit of a hassle, to have to have three accounts, one to purchase, one to get support and one to post, but the forums mechanics at least are more bearable than this current iteration of better faster stronger.)

In the meantime, let's just be glad of the sales and hope that it might lead to something along the lines of a few more new modders who will make some more cool adventures to play. And in that meantime, keep downloading and playing what's already available and post your questions, comments and critiques here in the forums, where it's "Official!"

Ya these forums have always been builder dominated. That's what I'm used to but I wo uldnt mind changing that. Considering the ratio of players to builders it should definitely be an inverse. I encouraged people playing my game to ask for help in the thread or email. Most choose email but I tried. The more game discussion going on here the better, and players are full perceptions you will never hear about your game, even if they are just asking for help bugs.

It's quite amazing that after another day and weekend NWN2 is STILL in the top 10 list of games selling. Although it has fallen to nineth place now.

FRUA is still around because it's 2-dimensional graphics allow anyone to make monsters or art with affordable paint programs. It doesn't hurt that it's been hacked to make westerns, gamma world games, science fiction games, and oriental adventure games. Or has about 100 new tilesets. NWN2 has almost no content for modern, future or historical periods.



In NWN1 you could use GMax to create simple content. Almost anyone can figure out how to make something with it. NWN2 and DA require professional software to make new content. They may not have longevity.

There are some folks that know more about this than I do. But I'm pretty sure that you do not NEED pro software to make new content in NWN2.

All I needed was some duct tape, elmer's glue, and popsickle sticks. ...oh no wait, that was christmas ornaments, not custom content for NWN2.

That depends entirely on the new content, and what you call "Pro". I see a lot of stuff on the vault being made with Blender, which is free, but hell I still can't use it. Then again, one thing I miss most in NWN2 is custom animations, and as far as I know, those require 3DS... and of course someone willing to make them. Big sigh. This community makes stories though, something I don't see much anywhere else. Fallout 3, for instance, has hundreds of weapon mods, texture mods, gameplay mods, boobs, boobs, boobs, a few more boobs, japanese lolitas with huge boobs... but has anyone ever tried to make my favorite companion actually say more than the three lines that adjust her AI? Na... that's the difference between these communities, I bet in NWN2 someone would've come up with companion storylines immediately, maybe a whole module following their storyline for 10+ hours... not just with sexy outfits for them. :)

I saw one of the naked boob mods on the vault today. One of the screenshot says "Now with smaller boobs". Ya think about that. A nudy mod. And it reduces the radius of the frontal lobes. I'll try and think of why I shouldnt vote zero.

If they were good we woudln't be having this discussion. I'll give him 4 days to double the size of the standard oc D cups before I vote. I'm not unreasonable.

Oh and alternatively, I will accept the regular cup size if a 3rd boob is added ALA Total Recall. Better make that a quad boob if he wants a 9 vote.

You can alter the dds art for existing models and use a cloner to give it a new name. Rugs, paintings, tapestries and the like can be made this way without professional software. There's even a tutorial to tell you how.

Actually, the point of this thread was supposed to be...



"Hey look, its really neat that this other really old game is still kicking."



I can't possibly express my deep and everlasting regret for even referencing the topic of NWN2 longevity. Although, I cannot deny that I am glad that "boobs" has popped up over a dozen times in this thread. That must be worth something.
