Been using the first person hack for a long time in NWN 1.  Now that I've got some gpu overheating issues under control I'm getting into NWN2 and the interiors look really nice...

Had a quick look at nwnvault but there are only nwn ones that I can see.

So is there any sort of first person mod for NWN2?  Let me know!


Thanks

Its mostly camera settings but there is no true view like this, although raising the camera a bit in appearance.2da gives you a working result which seems to work ( when you zoom in it ends up being right above the head since it's raised a bit, hence 1st person view ). Anyone using pains monster pack will have this by default, which is already setup to support most of the monsters out there.

Tried the appearance.2da from Pain's Monster Pack... Didn't notice a difference, just saw the back of my PC's head.... It goes into the override folder yes?

Just noticed I also have an appearance.2da from the "nwn2_creature_distance_tweak" mod in it's own override subfolder, would that conflict?  How does nwn2 decide which values to use from mods, is it a load order type thing?  Sorry am a noob on NWN2 modding.

Thanks again

Yes it would conflict. My pack has distance tweaks done from multiple sources. ( Sea of Dragons PW actually provided quite a few corrections ). Mine should be compatible with the rest of the community, as i hear issues i do corrections, and it should already have the community content you need.

It would be random what is used, basically whatever loads last but good luck figuring that out. You can determine it after the fact as it will be consistent, but not really predict it. I suggest making sure you only have one version of any file just to prevent confusion.

Multiple 2da's have to be merged.

it's working: usually the camera zooms into the middle of PC's back; just have to find the AppearanceType and raise HEIGHT a few more pts. (ofc, works best with shorties - gnomes, halflings, dwarfs)

Just noticed I also have an appearance.2da from the "nwn2_creature_distance_tweak" mod in it's own override subfolder, would that conflict?

like PoDE say, yes. The game will choose one and, to date, haven't heard of a reliable way of figuring which one. The values changed by Creature Distance tweak are in the colums alongside HEIGHT - PERSPACE, CREPERSPACE, HITDIST, PREFATCKDIST


nwn2.wikia.com has info on Appearance.2da

Cool. Removing the other file has things working as desired with the view sitting just over the character's head.

Thank you painofdungeoneternal et al.

I don't know if this would also be useful, but I have a simple mod, the Character Visibility Context Menu Option that can be used to turn your main PC and party members transparent or invisible. Might help prevent the back of the head from blocking the view.

I did some testing over a year ago on this and determined that when there is a file in multiple subfolders within the override folder the file in the newest subfolder is used.
