Are you tired of fireball like explosions caused by the elemental weapon effects in NWN? This mod might be for you, then.
It is bundled with Volatile's subdued weapon's effects, which I slightly tinkered with; Link
I basically increased the electrical effect and slightly toned down the holy one for his modifications.
What this combined package does is also reduce the visual effect on hit caused by weapons with added elemental, holy, positive, negative and sonic damage. Most effects are body-sized now, i.e centred on the person being hit, not a massive area of effect visual. It shouldn't conflict with anything and it's a very small download. I've been using it for a while and it really adds to my enjoyment. Works for monk gloves and ranged and throwing weapons too.
If you want to keep the fireworks for casters, you might like this mod. It also gives you more idea what's happening, particularly in battles where everyone has elemental damage on weapons.
Installation is simple, unzip and place in the my documents nwn override folder.
Spell effects are unchanged, this is simply toning down weapon effects. Screenshots should give you a good idea (One and three are normal effect, two and four are reduced).

Nice touch, adds realism and some visibility.

Finally I lowered my score, because I like the reduced effects on targets, but not on weapons.

This is exactly what I needed. Our item creator placed elemental visual effects on our items and I thought at first that I might have to remove them due to the garish effects. This hak was an easy fix though and looks great in the game. _________________________ Co-founder of the PW (open beta) Sea of Dragons.

Nice mod! Indeed it does make it easier to see in battles now.

Very good! Looks much more subtle and believable.

This is a modification of great quality! The Subdued Effects mod was already a godsend, and combined with lessened on-hit effects as well, this makes for a must-have download for anyone who thinks the vanilla effects are a bit over the top. Great work!
