Includes Module, erf, hak. UPDATE:ADD new carrion crawler skin, add ten butterflies :). Includes 1.53 cep compatible hak and normal hakp compatible with 1.67 enjoy :)
Add Ankheg enjoy :) fixed acid issue with CEP version of Ankheg. I like to thank Clarkycat for the new texture of the carrion crawler. I like to thank Taern for starting the basis of the Ankheg.

Dragonessa - Thanks for the vote and compliment. :)
Nuclear Arbitor - I think it about 10 ft in length in the game so not 15 like you like maybe I come back and scale one up some more. I'm a big BG fan and that was one of the reason I made the Ankheg :)

Taern from that team/person emailed me and asked me to make the model and even sent me a nice email thanking me for making it. I thought I created him some, sorry it might of got lost in one of the updates I put it up there when I get back from doing some bills. Thanks for the heads up.
-No problem :) I just wanted to make sure he got his little bit of spotlight too (his model page isn't getting much love ;) ), because he certainly started a great model, which you picked up and continued on with admirably! :)
how big is the Ankheg in game? in bauldr's gate it was like 15ft long. nasty *bleep*er. Ankheg plate was awesome though

We use the Ankhegs on Athas Reborn so here's my vote. Better late than never I suppose. _________________________ Heatstroke

A Praying Mantis would be pretty easy to do off the Ankheg just change or add some front claws and retexture it and change some animations would do good. I see about doing that. I taking some time off NWN for some real life troubles so sorry all. Thanks all for the comments and votes :)

I love this pack
Personally I'd love a giant Praying Mantis to go along with them, and not just so I could have hilerious scenarios reminisent of "The Deadly Mantis"

Thanks

Entropicus - Thanks for the vote and the comments. Yes I did kinda hurry through the Ankheg animation and I sorry for that, this will be fixed at a later date. The things about skill, my skill has gotten to the point where I can produce close to DLA level quality stuff and wish I could prob. start all over with everything I have made(maybe with a few exceptions) but that where the road block is at, time. After all these years of learning every aspect of NWN with my friends and relatives bugging me to make a persistant campaign world and me continue to say I need to learn more, I finnally have started to make one. This will take most of my time and slow fixes and new products I upload to the vault, but not end it. On top of this I like to release NWN2 stuff to show the new comers how to do thing like the fully tintable dragons and vfxs examples that people have taken and ran with. Hope this keep everyone updated to how things are going. Thanks :)

Ankheg is the best from this set and little insects are nice touch too. However most of content included here is available in CEP. (What is not something bad at all. Also I suppose that there is a group of those who choose to not use CEP). And I've already seen a better model of Cranion Crawler then this. (But this is only my personal feeling and you shouldn't worry about it). However you are original author of those models so you deserve a fair vote.
But not everything is working fine here. Poor ankheg has a bit crippled animations. (When it walks, death animation also could be better). For me its also not too brisk. He could have a bit more animation sets than those you provided. Don't explain yourself that it was born with it, I know that you could do better! (According to other critters from this hak.) Seriously if this is not beyond your skills or time you should to do it. Model itself is very nicely done. And after all its only ankheg Newerwinter has. So, I really hope this model will be improved in not too distant future.

With all the downloads you would think more people would take the time to vote on this brilliant hak. _________________________ Three Headed Troll Art Wurks

I did as you suggested and use the creature wizard to create a creature with stats that I think approximate a large Ankheg and then used your skin for it. The ankheg works quite nicely. Thanks again for the great work.

For a fast fix just take the fxpa_cuacid out of the normal insect hak and put it in the cep_insect hak. Sorry again :)

Ok found the problem, some files mix up between the cep version and plan insect version, sorry have it fix ASAP. :)

Love your work,especially the centipedes.The Anakheg is good too but the acid drips from its mouth come out as square blocks? Otherwise excellent animations etc. _________________________ Three Headed Troll Art Wurks

In the sample module he under animals other, because in the Monster manual they have him as beast or giant beast(there only magical beast cat.) so I was like hmmm where to put him. Sorry you can export him out and put him anywheres you want or to add you creature to the pallette with you stats just right click him and menu will pop up with add to pallette and you can put him where ever you want :).
