Well it's been a few years since my "first stab" at them and these are probably my last stab... for NWN1 :)
_______________________________________
This hak is a set of 5 New cloak textures that work with patch 1.68 beta2. All the models and animations are obtained in that patch (this hak contains only additional textures and a revised 2da). You must have at least patch 1.68 beta2 for this hak to work.
Two are designs (Paisley and Dragon lined) that replace my old "First Stab" dangly neck versions (that I was never a fan of...) and two are totally new designs (Lolths spider web cloak and a Tattered cloak) that exploit the cloak transparency features added in 1.68. The 5th one is a version that coordinates with the Unicorn theme of Prince Gilthanas Kanan.
________________________________________
Where, you might ask, is my "Second Stab" at cloaks? - well that would be what I contributed through DLA to Bioware and they are in the 1.68 patch :D
________________________________________
SEE README TO LEARN HOW Cloak Transparency WORKS! Erf Included with 6 pre-set-up cloaks (no magic properties). Feel Free to edit them as you wish.
________________________________________
Now that 1.68 beta is finally out, I will be digging around for the next week or two before school starts and releasing anything I can find that was in its final releasable form. Most of it was completed during the last 2 years and I've been waiting on patch 1.68 as well as the release of some of the premium modules such as ID and DLA's module Wyvern Crown...for those who are still playing NWN - I hope you enjoy these releases :)
I really love the cloaks! They are splendid and look awsome indeed! My favourites have to be the spider web cloaks, (both types) and the paisley and dragon lined cloaks too.
I love them all, except I do have 1 issue.
It's the dragon lined cloak.
It doesn't really look right to me the way it is now. It looks a bit too plain and dull.
I really love the gold lining on the inside with the skull and crossbones! (if that's what it is, though can't see properly)
But to me, this cloak just looks like it's inside out and the wrong way round! :-(
I personally would much prefer it if this cloak had the gold skull and crossbones look on the outside, and the dark texture on the inside!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.....
can you make this change in a future update??
It would look much better that way, to me at least.
On the other hand, PLEEEAAASSEEEEE...
could you make another cloak? Keep the current dragon lined one and make another one which is similar.
So make another one with the gold skull and cross bones look on the outside and the dark texture on the inside. That way everyone is happy. 8-)
I REEEAAALLLLYYYY hope this can be done in a future update!!

Great work!
Though there was a small bug to it, since the cloakmodel.2da has been saved as CloakModel.2da inside the hak, and since overriding it's case sensitive, it could create some problems with it. _________________________ [R1 Elven City Expansion] [Ctp Release 1 Tilesets]

Lisa,
I voted a long time ago, but I just gotta say that your work on these cloaks has provided others with a great opportunity. Due to your extensive work on these textures, and the information you gave on how to customize them with transparency and new textures, I have been able to create many of the kinds of cloaks (such as mantles) that I really wanted for my PW.

HI, wanted to say I love these cloaks. I am having trouble getting them to work with CEP and Crap but hey. Its all in the try. I do however have a problem with cloaks and the non human races. I can not get them to work with the Elves phenotype. Is anyone else having problems with this? Let me know. Despite how funny it looks to have an elf "wear" its cloak a foot above its shoulders, its also very irritating.

Excellent. The NWN community would be a poorer place without Lisa's contributions.

Can't believe I'm only voting for this now. An excellent addition to the game. I especially like the tattered cloak (for the more care-worn adventurer!) and the cloak with a runic border (nostalgia - reminds me of the border on some your first cloaks!). Thank you. :o) _________________________ KotOR Heads FR Deity and Faction Cloaks Fall-from-Grace Soundset

With the installation of CEP v2, I have lost the cloaks. Any idea how to get them back?

Your work on cloaks has been truly amazing, Lisa. I was so excited yesterday that I dropped everything to add in a bunch of great looking cloaks. Nicely done.
