Slowly plodding away on the next, and last, project in this series.

I have decided it will be split into three parts,

1. These dark days of waiting.
2. From This Comes Strength (optional to play)
3. Vault of the damned. 

Each will be released together along with the first three mods in a campaign with the title Tales From the Lake of Sorrows, that might change but it's the best I have right now. The mod name will change too as the more I use it the less happy I am with it.

The plot is in place for each and I know what I need to build, now I just have to build it <_<.

I have had some fun designing crossroads keep under Khelgar and Kana. I thought the outer area of the keep was a wasted resource in all the official content. I have had a good play with it.

Plus I do not like slavish use of prefabs and I cannot change the inner area too much since my campaign is set at almost exactly the same time as SoZ, so Sa Sani and particularly Kana will play thier part.

Looks good PJ, nice to see you doing something with the outside of CK as it was rather overlooked in the OC (and none existant is SoZ, but the less said about SoZ the better)

Good to see you're working on your next module, the other ones were great. Are you working on all the three parts at the same time? If not, maybe you could release them one by one, to make the waiting shorter.

Thanks, I always thought the outside of the keep was a missed opportunity (and defensivly rubbish). I am trying to depict it as a growing town, under the close eye of Kana. Something like the keep would attract all sorts of support people though building should be controlled as that area out front is the killing zone from the walls. It's eye candy at the moment since there is not likely to be muich going on for a 10th level adventuring party but I might weave it into a subquest. perhaps some rats in a basement ...

Thanks for the votes BTW feedback and votes are always much appreciated Image IPB

Thanks, it's good to be getting on with it. The community mod has taken up time so progress has been slow. I'm doing them one by one but now that Ember can be leveled as you please and the three romances carrying over from LDotR mean that these should really be in a campaign.

However I will be playtesting them one by one ;)

From This Comes Strength is the ranger mod we communicated on a while back.

Let me know when you need playtesters, I'll test it if I can.

When I saw one was optional, I figured it was that one. Having it as an optional part seems like a good solution.

I didn't even recognize crossroads keep. Looks great, although maybe it could use a little more cow bell...

Is this related to the Wild, Wild West TV show in theme? Every episode was named: "The night of...". It is a great show with cool plots. It would be interesting to have super secret agent modules in NWN2. ;)

It is way off in the background. I've not seen that before Image IPB had to go dig out my Blue Oyster Cult vinyl. ...

Heh Heh ... A lot less than I would like with many more to go. It's a long journey as you know as well as I do.

Not heard of that so I guess the answer is no. Secret agents sound fun though and there is an aspect of that in PTII.

LOL now I have to change it, the image you portray is not working well for me Image IPB.

I am guessing nothing with goose in the title would be safest ...

this isnt as bad as that module that was supposed to be named reversal of fortunes which is the asian phrasing for vommitting.

Sorry to call out your personal residence, but if you have never seen more cowbell before I have to ask if you indeed live under a stone my good sire?

Interesting.... is this some sort of Pavlovian conditioning?

I'd hate to see what urges you get when you see "Sheep and Stone"...

You are correct we do have the occasional cow down here Image IPB

This post is why it pays dividends to delve back a few months in forums! Looking forward to this, PJ, especially after seeing the evolution of how good you've 'matured' as a modder (which is saying something considering the nature of your first few which were also really good). The music in LDOTR was such that my toon had a reason to kick back in the bars a bit. Back when NWN had a PW called Mossbourne, the initial inn had Loreena McKennitt music incorporated, so if the PW was low in attendance, I'd plop my toon in a seat and cycle through the songs once or twice. Similar stance with your mod!

Thanks E.M. The first mod is up on the vault now (These Dark Days of Waiting). Night of 100 moons is shelved as a title for geographical reasons. It will be Tales from the Lake of Sorrows from here on in.

I'm glad you like the music, if it's the inns then you are listening to John Sayles or music taken from The Medieval Lady which is a good buy at 15 USD if that sort of music works for you. Those are the ones I had to pay for (not the John Sayles).

I have a great track for the new mod along the same lines but the record company are ignoring my emails ao I may not get to put it in the fianl cut .. we shall see.

Thx for clarifying PJ. My brain generally fluxes from a state of muddled to down right dumb, so any help to keep me on track is much appreciated! I havent had a chance to look at the music yet, but I restarted part three last night (I had rushed through dialogue and got lost, finally reaching a time where a big fight was on hand, and Toon fighter and Ember were up against a stacked party. I realized I'd done something horribly wrong, so restarted with the same toon and this playthrough is much more survivable. :). That coupled with installing light fixtures and closet packages at home with some other sundry projects has me occupied. After 2200 though, I've been playing. Music hunting is thus far earmarked for Monday, and thanks to you, I know where I'll find it. :). Thx again! EM
