the HeX coda 01 (v1.3)
A Scifi/Fantasy Adventure for NWN by Stefan Gagne.
...modern civilization is one of prosperity and safety, with all magic legally controlled by a monolithic business called the Cathedral Corporation. As part of the underground magic movement known as the Hex Coders, every day is a race to develop new arcane technologies and evade persecution by the Cathedral. That alone would be trouble enough, but add the sins of an ancient civilization rising in the present day and you've got more than your fair share of problems. Can you lead the team through this interlocking puzzle across time and space, and avoid getting twenty to life for unauthorized use of magic..? (Version 1.0)
This module is simply amazing! The best one I've ever played! The characters were well developed, and I like how you developed the PC. The storyline was my favorite part, along with the stunning music. It actually made me feel like I was reading an old sci-fi book. The custom content (especially the posters) were awesome. I really like how you developed the characters, (especially Six, who was my favorite) and showed their different personalities. I am going to play the second one, and from reading other peoples' comments, am a little sad because it's unfinished

A fantastic module. Seems to pay homage to FF7 Chrono Trigger without letting the similarites get in the way of the story. Shame the series will remain unmade. _________________________ -=Jaysyn=-

Everyone should play this module. It's better than 99% of commercial RPGs. Beyond being awesome in every respect, the module is also hilarious. It felt like one big spoof of Final Fantasy which, of course, only added to the humor.

The Story was finish somewhere... I am sure you can find it in here just look around. If I am not mistaken the work ended because the engine couldn't keep up with Stefan's imagination (does he blow up the planet at the end? oh something like that) Anyways... I love this module and the unfinished second one and read the story... It was a great story :) _________________________ (\__/) (='.'=) This is Bunny.

I just finished the mod last night, and I must say I'm disappointed... ...THAT YOU DECIDED NOT TO FINISH THE SERIES!!! I for one, would love to see more Hex Coda modules. Your sense of humor is second-to-none, and the story itself was absolutely gripping. Please, finish the series! Even if that means you write the story and leave the actual module development to someone else, please finish it! _________________________ DO NOT MEDDLE IN THE AFFAIRS OF DRAGONS...

I played this a couple of years ago, and it still stands out in my memory as one of the more unique modules. Great NPCs, Great environment. Simply one of the best.

Like all of Stefan's work, strong on story and (especially in this case) henchman interaction and background. Excellent use of custom content (also as usual). The stock tilesets are starting to look more than a bit old, the only design negative. Some design elements also felt a bit recycled from his other works, but there's enough that's new and the whole is more than the sum of its parts. Also have to commend the author for the quantity of content, which does not disappoint. Well worth playing as an intro to the second module, which although unfinished I believe is more compelling. That and the full storyline included with it (so you know how things end) make this mod worth the time. I hadn't played before now due to the abandoned follow-on, but the overall experience is still worth it. Thanks again for your contribution to the community.

I never imagined I?d see a sci-fi game in NWN and this is a great one. An amazingly creative and fun game, with some great original content, well developed henchmen and a very well crafted plot. Brilliant.

This is a very good mod! One of the best mods I've ever played.
