Description
The complete version 5 of the module running for over two years on the Hidden Tradition server. A full campaign set in an alternate 12th century Earth during the time of the Crusades. Hidden Tradition Hakpaks collection required!
This is a massive update to version 2.0 which was released in 2004. Version 5 is now completely compatible with the SoU and HotU expansions up to version 1.66.
The module uses not only many custom tilesets but also supports the PRC pack to give you dozens of new Prestige Classes, plus lots of new spells and even new skills and feats.

Zipped file of HT hakpaks for Linux and Mac users. Please ensure that you add the prc.tlk file to your NWN tlk folder (make a tlk folder inside the NWN folder if you don't already have one) External Website Beyond Our Control
Windows self-installer of all the hakpaks needed for Hidden Tradition. Just download and run. Linux and Mac users should download the HT5hak.zip file instead. (Note: if you're not playing on the server you'll need the HiddenTradition5_4.zip file as well - that contains the module itself, this file is just the hakpaks)

I think I have resolved my earlier problem by downloading Hidden Tradition5_4 a 7+Mb winzip file. The file's content is solely the mos file. Game seems to be running OK now

I have installed HT5.exe (the one with the description all the files needed to play this mod, However when I run NWN I cant seem to find the mod to load. This was quite a download and the installer seemed to run ok, during which I used the yes option to override existing files to get the maximun effect from the game. Am I missing something obvious here? I ran a quick ccheck but could not see the mod file in my NWN modules directory. Please help

The HT5.exe file seems to be another bug with the Vault upload process, since it's only half the size it's supposed to be. Sigh. Don't download it - use the HT5hak.exe file instead, it's the correct one. rodney

OK, I think I figured out what the problem was. The Vault was hosting an old version of the module that was out of sync with the latest hakpaks for the HT server and not fully compatible with version 1.66 of NWN. To add to the problems, Lisa changed the name of her hak and made it impossible to get the one required seperately. Many apologies for the confusion. I've just uploaded the latest version of HT to my own site until I sort out the upload problems with the Vault. Please download this version, which should work with the hakpaks correctly. In addition the new version has a HUGE number of improvements and additions over the previous version, including but not limited to: Early areas now much easier for low level characters (this addresses a very common complaint from solo players). Squire Navarre will now train level 1 characters directly to level 2 for free, to assist players still having trouble in early areas. Addition of several new Epic level monsters, including, Glooms, Black Slaads, Nightwings, Primal Elementals, and Gibbering Orbs - some of the later quests now scale up to give even level 30+ characters a pretty hard time. Epic spells now available via Epic Spell Lab crafting - these are implemented differently than Bioware standard, and are much more like D&D Epic spells. More temples and shrines for people to worship at. Various new areas and encounters added all over the place. Lots of encounters rescaled to fit party level better. You can now craft many more Masterwork items using crafting skills, and also craft dragonskin items with the right ingredients. Lots and lots of new custom items, especially high level items. Have fun! Rodney

I downloaded the game a few days ago and came across the same trouble as a couple people here with the "lisaclotheshou.hak" issue. Couldn't find it for the life of me. did a quick search on altavista and found out the updated version essentially bumped the old version off(hence why nothing called lisasclotheshou.hak is listed here). Found a persistant world that listed lisasclotheshou.hak as a download but when I clicked on it, it brought up Lisa?s Clothes Horse HotU Padded as the hak file. Do a search for it here at the vaul. Now, I don't know if you can just pop in the file (I downloaded the updated file-there is an older file listed here as well)as named into your hak folder so I renamed it to lisasclotheshou.hak and stuck the .erf file with the .erf file's original name in the erf folder. Viola! I now have bodys where before I didn't. It worked for me, should work for you. I just didn't feel like downloading the whole 100 MB file from the net again so I did my homework and skipped the lengthy download time. Chers!

What exactly is the problem with the zip file Martha? It should work fine on Linux... Rodney

Hi, I am having a problem too with the hakpack. It concerns the zip file. Does someone knows if there is a compatibility problem with Mac (or Linux)?

Hi. I downloaded the module. I used the self-extracting file for windows. I went to start the module with the tools, but it says I am missing a hak: lisasclotheshou. I can't find this hak file anywhere.

I've been in touch with Maximus again, hopefully we have something worked out now. I'll tidy up the current server version over the next days and get that uploaded soon. As regards the save problem, I'd always save while in a rest area... It's not something that ever comes up on the server version of course. Rodney
