This override pack was designed to improve the visual of one of the oldest NWN tileset - Bioware Rural. It replaces all of the Trees terrain and several tree objects on grass tiles.
I've decided to make an overriding pack, for those who want to change the look of the game for their favorite modules and PWs, as well as an overriding hak for those, who want to change the appearance of the tileset for their module.
Caution: use with care if you're running the game on an slow PC with an old videocard. The models are quite heavy and for now I've got no plans for further optimization.
Update: placeable pack added. It's not ready for use and only contains the tree models with their PWKs, no placeables.2da with proper lines included.
Update #2: modified several trees I've missed in the first release.
Update #3: another placeable pack added: this one modifies two basic bioware placeable trees to match the override look and feel. TNO-based trees are not affected.
Dun know if this has been mentioned, but with how awesome this looks. It would only be right to do the winter-rural =) But not to say we are not appreciative of what you have accomplished thus far. Great Work! _________________________ PW Action Server: | Chaosgate |

This is fantastic work as usual, Helvene. I'd love to see it in hak format instead of as an override, but even so, once you've tried this override, you just have to keep it and use it. I have not experienced any slowdown issues playing NWN on my desktop with this, and hopefully my new laptop will be up to the challenge as well. _________________________ Realms Of Destiny PW

After a quick test, they become mandatory. I can never go back now. This is an instant classic. Don?t forget your archer towers. I think I saw a tree on one of those tiles. Friedeyes

Many thanks, Helvene. Yet another of your instantly necessary additions for BioWare Tilesets that sits right there with tracks across caverns and walkable water in deserts in terms of joyous practicality... well, alright, this is more aesthetic than anything, but I like it anyway.
