How to Make Your Own Armor

[undeadsteak]

A few people have been asking this in the chat box, so I thought i'd make a thread

on it. This isn't for hak pak items, just the normal equipment found in NwN2. Its to

change how it looks and stuff.. Sorry if its messy! Feel free to ask any questions. I

might add how to use the hak paks later on, but im feeling lazy now.

1. First, I only know how to do it by using Sin Plugin. It helps you with the toolset,

and lets you use an item lab which makes everything much easier. Heres the link to

get it. http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view...s.Detail&id=12 To install

it, you put it into your Atari folder, in your C drive. /NwN2/toolset/plugins is where

it goes. Then, open up the toolset, go to Edit tab, and go to options. Where it

says plugins, set it on Allow all plugins. reopen Toolset, click on plugins tab, and then click on Sin plugin. Now your ready to make your stuff.

2. Then, you'll see the thing called Blueprints. under there, it should have the Items

tab. Click on it, then click on what you want. Lets say you want to change the

looks of your Scale Mail, go to medium armor, click on Scale mail, then go to Copy

blueprints. Click on the copy, and then go to Edit in item Lab.

3. Here you should be able to change how the color looks, and give it properties,

and change the name, change the icon.. Lots of things, you can add extra stuff as well.

4. After your done, hit the save button there, and close the item lab. Then go to

file, Export, and then go to Item Blueprints. Click on the blue print you changed,

and then click okay. Save it to a place. We're almost done.

5. Ask a dm if you can send it to them, and get their Email. After your done with

that, attach the ERF to the email. Don't forget to say where you put the blue

prints in, like blueprints>Item>armor>Heavy armor, etc.

6. Now, after sending it to the dm, be patient and wait for it to come.

Right, let me know if im missing anything guys.

Thanks to All these people who helped me in learning how to make this stuff: God beast X, , Scarlett,

and everyone in this thread http://www.sundren.org/forum//showthread.php?t=1435 Might be missin

a few people, sorry, can't remember everyone who helped me!

This is how to make the Hak Pak Armor. This is how I do it. There are different ways. You need to get Sinplugin in for this as well. Follow step 1 up there for how to get Sinplugin.


1. Go to http://nwvault.ign.com/. Then get the hak paks you want, that are also in Sundren. Lets say you want Alleane's 3rd hak pak. Open it with Winrar or Winzip. When you do that, click on the package_CL3. When it opens, take all the mdb, dds, and uti files and drop them into the override directory.

2. Now, open up your toolset, and go to view, then open module properties. Under misc, there should be a Hak Paks thing. Click on the empty space next to it, and then you should see a . . . button. Yes, i said a . . . button. Click on it, then click on add. then under misc, there should be a filename, and another . . . button next to it. Click on it, and then go to Documents, Neverwinter Night, and then Haks. Click on which one you want to export into the module. Now keep doing that with every other hak you want. But you have to follow step 1 for each hak you try putting in.

3. Follow step two in my post above. But this time, click on Alleane's, or whatever other hakpak your using. Once your there, you pick clothings, or armor. (This is in Alleanes.)

4. Same as step 3 on above post.

5. Same as step 4 on post above.



6. Same as step 5 on post above.

7. Same as step 6 on post above. God this is getting repetitive -.-.

THANKS TO: SBG (Soul Bad Guy) Grumblecake, Acheron777 (For helping me by saying one little sentence that fixed all my problems XD) And im not sure who else helped me, im having a bit of trouble remembering, but thank you all guys!

P.S: Aleane's Clothing Pak 4 isnt in 1.2 Sundren Client yet, as far as I know, so go bug GBX to get it in ^_^. (Just kiddin, hes prolly busy.)

[undeadsteak]

Mhm, I think its Aleane's 1-3, then the elven weapons. Theres another one, but im not sure.

I am giving this topic a small bump since i can't seem to get the sin plugin to work . I tried to follow all your steps undeadsteak but under the edit tab i cannot find ''options'', this way i can't get the toolset to enable all plugins.

Anyone knows how i can fix this?

Move your mouse right a few pixels to the 'View' tab, and look there *cough*
