DLA Presents 'Crystal Golems' by Thrikreen and NexusJnr. Taking advantage of a new procedure in NWN to permit Glass and Crystal textures, the two golems included, the Ruby Golem and the Emerald Golem are created to show off a transparency effect while at the same time they have been mapped with a custom environment map so that they are partly reflective. The effect can really only be apprecaited in game as the creature moves. The ref art for the creature is based on the Psion Killer/Crystal Golem in the Psionic Handbook. http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/psi_gallery/Psi_41.jpg The hak contains 2 models, .dds textures and new crystal env. map, portraits for the creatures along with the necessary .2das. As well, 2 erf files are included to get you going and a quick sample mod is provided for you to check out the new crystal golems. Model by: Thrikreen Texture by: NexusJnr UPDATED: to 101 to fix a dds error on the Emerald texture

I should have voted for this years ago, I played a module where these were used as mighty enemies (and they were!) Beautiful and enhancing to gameplay, thanks for sharing your talent. _________________________ QSW -NWVault Reviewers Forum

The models are CRAZY good, really good job, I give this an 9 for a few reasons, one, there's more that could have been done script wise to simulate the golems stats as per pnp rules, and while the models are excellent they aren't required to be incredibly intricate, gem golems are rough hewn and rocky, these are excellent representations of them, but things like the treants that were done by dla required more work and effort and are more extensive, so this isn't a critique at all, just reserving 10's for those things that are truly the top of the pile.

I love the look of these.. verry well done, but not as nice as the treant so i'm only giving it a 9. So many golems to chose from now.. great job guys
I just wanted to say -- Great stuff -- I was so interested by the crystal effects -- I learnt to skin -- and made a citrine (yellow Orange) and a Sapphire (dark blue) golem. Then it occurred to me that I don't know the stats for the other golems skins and creature claws -- could some one point me in the direction of that information please. I'm aiming at doing an amethyst and an Obsidian version as well.
I can't believe you guys can make such complex shapes in gmax -- I had a look and it a lot more difficult that I imagined.
ya that sounds awesome! do you think you could make a clear(diamond) golem and a sapphire one and maybe a purple one i dont remember the name of the gem but i really nead them for a mod im making but i have no idea how to do anything with custom content other then to use it in a mod. Please do this I REALLY need this! plz :D
