Ever wanted to design a crypt where the weapons that were laid to rest with their owners actually looked old? Ever wanted to construct an ancient battlefield and see aged and weathered items? NOW YOU CAN! I want to give a BIG THANKS to Devan Crowe and his Battlefield Placeables hakpack (http://nwvault.ign.com/Files/hakpacks/data/1074838341690.shtml). It was the inspiration and starting point for this hakpack. I used many of the models from his hak along with many weapon models from the CEP. I assembled the weapon model pieces into a single model using the Context text editor and then applied new textures manipulated with the GIMP to give the items an aged and weathered look. NOTE: The textures in the hak are primarily DDS textures. If someone needs a TGA only texture hakpack, I can supply that as well.
The placeables.2da supplied in the hak is HOTU 1.65 + CEP 1.51 2da file. The placeable items are numbers 4000 thru 4084. If you use a different placeable.2da base, then just copy these lines and the wildcard padding line above entry 4000 into the end of your placeables.2da. I have also supplied an erf in the zip file to allow easy import into your module. The erf will place entries into the Custom->Placeables->Battlefield category. Hope you like the placeables. Happy building! P.S. Please note that HOTU and CEP *ARE NOT* required for this hakpack to function. The hak contains placeables and will work with any combination of NWN, SOU, HOTU, and CEP.
