Zorco's Keeps is intended as a CEP 1.5 compatible character waystation with persistence. It can be used Single Player or local vault Multi Player/LAN and offers player housing with persistent storage, persistent banking, and a persistent message board. Players can spend their gold at the many merchants that sell nearly every item in the OCs and about 1000 unique items. Or create your own custom weapons, custom clothing, custom armor, custom helmets, and custom item enchantment. A Casino with gambling and gaming is also available. This is not a Character builder. No XP can be earned in this mod and there are no quests. However a light degree of roleplaying is still maintained. *Requires Tileset HAK - Stilgar's CCS version 0.349b or later* *You do not need to save your game with this module.* You should export your character when you end a session.
Ahh, what the heck. Always loved the concept ... might as well get around to voting.

If anyone's curious ... I changed this to use CEP 2.1 and v1.69. So far, the CEP item mirror is broken and the 2 NPC's in the tailor shop have heads and robes but no bodies. Some of the cloaks do not show up properly. I, too, will work on fixing ... but I'm a scavanger, not a programmer or toolset maestro. May take a while.

SweeneyTodd: If you could do that, it would be great! Mine own skills are insufficient to the task, I fear. I haven't seen hide nor hair of the creator in a while and it would be nice to see someone adopt this (and maybe update it to CEP2.1 as well, hint, hint). For some reason, a friend has tried to use this as well, but it refuses to load for him. This version seems not to work on a Mac.

Found this really useful back in the day; figure I'll see if it needs any tweaking for 1.69. _________________________ Penumbria - A NWN Homestead

jksghvwq - Yes; we get it. You would have done it differently w/o any mistakes, bugs, or problems. U Rule.... I just find it rather unusual as one that has no real Tech skills, that I have not experienced such difficulty. Strange, ain't it? But perhaps it has to do with better access to my keyboard without having one arm dislocated from patting myself on the back, and one foot stuck in my mouth....

And the bug is probably also related to the fact that the shopkeeper inventory usually won't contain any items unless you click the tabs back and forth. Meaning whatever method you have set up to generate their selective type-based inventories is the problem. It's a stupid idea to begin with, and this just makes it worse. I also don't like the fact that the weapon seller won't buy a sword unless I'm shopping for swords. Like he's never heard of a goddamn sword if I told him I want to look at axes. That's retarded.

Furthermore: 1. Items randomly disappear from my inventory when I use this. I can't discern the trigger. I bought a bag of holding in the library, verified that it was in my inventory, walked to the other end of the library, and the bag was no longer there. 2. Shop owners will bill me for items and then not give them to me. I can replicate this. It occurs most often when I just sold them an item, especially if it was an item I had equipped. These are probably the same bug. So as far as I'm concerned, the module doesn't work at all. Its entire purpose is item management, and it fails at safely managing items.

Why isn't CEP in the "required hakpacks" list? This does, in fact, require CEP. It's not merely "CEP compatible". It is "CEP dependent".

filofax - Your wish is available. Check out the forge works; on the Eastern side of the city, I believe.

Brilliant! been using this for ever. Thanks for a great mod. I would like a shop to enchant items, but that does not detract from my overall enjoyment. The only other mod that I rate as highly is 'A Dance for Rogues' pt 1 Thanks again Filofax
