DLA Presents 'the Treant' by DLA's Elryn. This hak pak features an all original creature with new textures in both .dds and .tga format. The model includes a complete set of original animations (including emotes). Hak contains new portraits and the Treant model makes use of 1.61+'s support of alpha transparency on creatures. Making full use of alphas, the model is highly detailed but comes in at 1409 polygons, well within limits for a Large creature encountered alone or in small groups. A user.tlk is included to directly support the new Monster soundset for the Treant in the archive. We have included a special placeable to take advantage of the Treant's natural camouflage. Builders can use these for spawn points. Lastly, a demo mod is included for you to view the model and quickly take in some of its basic animations. Model, Textures & Animations: Elryn Soundset: Mattymix and David John Portrait: Henry Martinez
The best creature model I've seen for NWN bar none. Before I saw this model, I had no intention of creating the creature pack I now have on the vault. The beauty of the model itself inspired me to find every high quality creature I could find on the vault, and actually learn how to edit the appearance 2da file.

El... Thanks for visiting the my page. I appreciate the comments, despite the rhetoric floating around at the moment. And please tell the rest of the content creators that they are tops in my list. I have never said anything negative about any DLA content. I hope you know that. When I left a comment thread on my page about why Steel_Wind rated my pak a 6, I had no clue he was part of DLA. I just assumed he was a 9 year just out to mess with me. I was suprised to hear back from Steel, and even more incredulous he admitted to voting on my hak to... well, you know the rest I'm sure. Bottom line.. I wish you and the rest of team all the best. If you spent 400hrs on the treant, then trust me when I say I know what's it like to be in your shoes. Just knowing I have to adjust the ambient / diffuse light nodes on 1850 tiles makes my skin crawl. NWN CC is better place because the DLA Team is here. And you will never hear me say otherwise =). Good luck again.

Ok! Glad to hear it! I was wondering: "How did they forgot such original content?" Got an answer for sure. Okay so I will have to redo my 2da's when the CEP release you're beautiful creations in a future add-on... I use both your Treants and Crystal Golems and find them very useful and greatly done. Thanks for your time to write back.

Yes, it was a misunderstanding. Will put them in a future release.

Very complete work, but incompatible with the CEP exp pack... (.tlk table) I give it a 10 anyway! _________________________ - Où se cache le mal dans mon royaume? - Toujours où tu t'en attends le moins...
