    So it sounds like your saying that some of the newer tilesets like Medieval City tileset and Mountains and more tilesets would be better to use then the standard ones when it comes to loading and gaps. While Shadooow was saying some of the larger newer tilesets load slower then the standard NWN tilesets.

 

    I have downloaded a lot of tilesets and was checking load times. The larger ones like DOA City Rural and Worms SF did look nice but they also loaded a whole lot slower. However the newer tilesets that wasn't as bulky like Medieval City tileset and Mountains and more tilesets loaded just as quick as the standard NWN tilesets. Plus I did see some of the gaping Zwerkules was talking about in the older and standard NWN tilesets. However I didn't see any (not saying there isn't any) in Medieval City tileset and Mountains and more tilesets.

 

    I have also found that some haks do not play well together. So it seems that I will need to keep playing around with all the different tilesets to see which one load slower, looks poorer, and works well with each other to find the ones that would be best to use.

 

    I all so can see Shadooow and Proleric's point when it comes to not wanting to add more haks to their current modules/PW's and the fact that a lot of the newer tilesets have a total different look then the old ones so they don't look right when in the same module.

 

You have all given me a lot to think about and pointed some things to look for.

 

I'm still open to any information, pointers, or nice tilesets to use if anyone has any for me.

 

Thanks for all of your time and insight

Oh and I have noticed that a lot of the modules that use the older tilesets also use a lot of placeables to have more variety with out using haks. However I can say loading an area that has a lot of places (which does look really nice to the eye) takes far far longer to load then using a new tileset that already look nice with out using all the placeables. Just something I have been noticing while checking out tilesets and hakless modules that look nice buy using placeables.

 

Thanks

I would definitely use this series of mods if you used the newer tilesets. I'm not keen on the idea of being pigeon holed into using secondary haks just for placables. Just my 2 cents take it with a grain of salt.

What about have CEP in the Prefabs ?

 

I was checking out some other modules who made some really nice looking shopps, Inns, Taverns, and other interiors that I thought about using. However that would mean I would need to have CEP as part of the prefabs.

 

So would it be better to upload prefabs without CEP and be just the outdoor areas or should I put CEP in the prefabs and have the interiors I was going to use?

 

Thanks for all the help and insight so far.
