Pretty Good Character Creator / Customizer (PGC3) powered by IGIPE is a tool for building, equipping, and combat-testing Player Characters (PCs). It�s optimized for setting up "legit" characters to use in games where it's appropriate to start at levels other than 1. It also supports DM Friendly Initiative (DMFI) functionality.
Using PGC3, you can:
Add, change, or remove any valid property for any item using the In-Game Item Properties Editor (IGIPE) by hohos.
Set a PC to any level up to 40. Gold is automatically set for the level you chose per DMG guidelines.
Rebuild levels.
Adjust alignment, subrace, and deity.
Purchase equipment from a wide selection of items, including standard NWN items and many unique creations. (The CEP2 version also includes a separate CEP merchant.)
Load or remove DMFI PC items.
Remove Cursed (undroppable), Plot, or Stolen flags from items.
Customize your PC�s appearance.
Test your PC's mettle in Arena and Playground areas.
Use the persistent Storage Chest to save and/or transfer items between PCs.
New for v4.4: Portraits! Hair/skin/tattoo colors! Tridents! Purple Dragon Knights!
Create your perfect character, be the envy of all your friends, get hot dates, and revel in your own glory. (Your mileage may vary.)
Requirements vary depending on which version you use. Although CEP2 is listed under the "Required Haks" section, there are separate hak-less and CEP2 versions available for download. Read the file descriptions carefully to make sure you're downloading the version that's right for you.
PGC3 v3.0 requires NWN v1.67 patch. NO HAKS REQUIRED. Do not use this version unless you are not upgrading to NWN v1.68 or higher patches which use Bioware's new cloaks! This older version of PGC3 does not include IGIPE and will not be updated or supported. The ZIP file contains the PGC3 v3.0 module plus a readme PDF.
PGC3 v4.3 CEP2 powered by IGIPE requires NWN v1.68 patch with the new cloaks. It also requires the following CEP2 haks: cep2_top_v1, cep2_add_phenos1, cep_add_phenos2, cep2_add_sb_v1, and cep2_core files #1 through 5.
The ZIP file contains the PGC3+IGIPE+CEP2 module plus the readme PDF.

Just getting back into NWN after what seems like forever. Love this module now as much as I did way back! Just dropping a comment to say thanks for the awesome character builder, I use it all the time even all these years later! :)

This module is intuitive, straightforward, and useful. Well done. Personally, I'd prefer a merchant who sold more powerful magic armor and weapons instead of having to use the forge every time I want something stronger than +1, but the forge is great anyway.

Long overdue vote for one of the essentials of NWN. Great Job & Thank You!!
I used this some time last year, and I loved it. But since then I've switched computers and went to download it again and upon doing so all I get is the pdf and what looks to be a movie file that doesn't play. I've tried all of the downloads. Is there something wrong? Was hoping to set up something with my friends and play again.
I downloaded this the other week, and have just finished my first module with a generated character. I'll score the mod when I have used other features since I have only used the setup master and the stores so far, but this mod may re-invigorate my interest in NWN as it makes high level mods available without building them up by replaying the OC.

An absolute NWN Essential. . .Especially for those of us stuck without the tool set(poor linux/mac users). also great for those who wish to play test a build before wasting precious time trying to do it in a campaign, or other community made modules only to find out it wasn't workable/worth while. over the last few years of using this module i've yet to have any major issues with it. _________________________ jml's list of community addons/overrides, etc. Link

@Cthulus
which version of the mod are you running? the issue you are describing, to me at least, sounds like a misbehaving override. I'd suggest trying again after you move your override folder somewhere else. if it persists, move it back. very little that's worth while in that store anyway. _________________________ jml's list of community addons/overrides, etc. Link

Not sure if you've already noted this, but an especially irksome glitch with the shop keeps reoccurring; when I select the fighter/barbarian shop, it begins to load, showing the merchant's inventory and mine.. then "Neverwinter Nights has stopped working.." and then the game crashes. Has this happened to anyone else?
I am experiencing a weird bug. Some of the objects and body parts are replaced with textureless blancs. I have PRC installed, but even without the PRC haks and without my override folder content the module keeps looking like this.
Pelvis models are gone as well as female necks. Not sure what is happening here, I used PGCC succesfully in the past. Any suggestions?

I could not seem myself or my group ever playing NWN with out this.
The players satisfaction that is gained by being able to create, customize and obtain a character that LOOKS and has exactly what you envisioned is invaluable.
Truly a magnificent Module. Just amazing. Not to mention a player during the heat of battle chooses a wrong feat by mistake would normally be stuck with it. BUT being able to go into here really quickly and fix that selection has an immeasurable affect on a player and his energy for his\her character.
Thanks is not enough, but THANKS and HUGE KUDOS

Thanks for thanking me in the .pdf file. :)
Will always look forward to another update. _________________________ Steve's Characters - please don't forget to vote on them if you play them.
I still continue to be amazed and gratified by the comments this mod receives. I love you guys.
I've been in touch with hohos. He's interested in doing an NWN 1.69 update for IGIPE. He's very busy with other things, though, so he's not sure when he'll get to playing with NWN1 again.
Meanwhile, I've posted a v4.4 beta with some new features but using the current IGIPE. I thought it would be better to give you guys the new features to play with rather than have it sit unused on my hard drive.
The plan is to finish a full v4.4 update and also publish a version for the latest CEP. One outstanding feature we discussed is taking advantage of the new scripts for editing item descriptions--something that's been on everyone's wish list for a long time.
Blue skies...

Better than "pretty good!" Like Jedijax, I've gotten so used to using this, that I've forgotten that I use it.
Many thanks you two!

You know, I have been using this for years, and yet didn't even notice I did... that's what happens when things are useful, you just tend to think they were always there.
Still working, still useful, still unnoticed. A perfect ten for a module that works as it is meant to.
