(ZW Presents) Blackwall Keep (The Seed of Darkness)
!!!UPDATE!!! 10-15-06. Included is a CE Module version without the fix horror camera mode for folks who can�t stand it and for folks playing on a very high resolution. (Be warned� I only took the cams out and I did �not� test it, but it should work fine.)
Requirements: NWN, SOU, HOTU 1.68 and CEP 1.68 (Please don�t forget all of the earliest CEP patches!)
Hak Packs: ZW_Base_Haks (Click on the link found on this very page!) ZW's BWK2 Hak and Music (Found on this very page!) The same goes for two tilesets (On Eldonorian's page, you just need the Blood Dungeon, not the mines!)
WARNING!!! Extreme content and it's for adults only!!! (If you download this module and its related content, then your actions are your own responsibility or the ones of your legal guardians! Don't get back to me with "hate" or "immature" feedback because of it! Go build something with NWN instead and share it with us.) Oh and parents, watch what your kids browse and download on the Internet!
WARNING!!! Coarse language, violence, gore, nudity and explicit sexuality!!! If any of this isn't to your tastes or affects you morally, avoid playing the module.
WARNING!!! You have been warned� again!
*********************************************
Background:
After the defeat of the Goblinette Queen, you were sent home to Diamond Lake to take some time off with family and friends. A reward given by the commander of Blackwall Keep for your heroic deeds. Although you've gained some weight, the last time spent home was great, but now you must head back to the keep. What will happen during your travel? Did anything change at Blackwall Keep since you left? Pack up your gear and take the Urnst Trail to find out�
Author's notes:
Welcome to Blackwall Keep' sequel. In this new installment the story begins with simplicity and free-form adventure, but once the events start in Blackwall you will learn about a dark twisted secret� There are a few side-quests chosen randomly before reaching the keep. One of those hard to find quests is for female players exclusively. Some "standard" side-quests can also be found.
==== Many ROLE-PLAYING choices in conversations. (You're a tough girl? No problem! You're a cowardly soldier? No problem! You care only for yourself? No problem! You are honorable? No problem! And so on�) Your choices can or will have dire consequences this time around.
==== Interactive situations like, fishing, cooking, bathing etc� Even the digging of graves if you are into that sort of thing!
==== Many custom items. (Armors, items, tools etc� Even Asian stuff!)
==== Many custom creatures (You won't fight or interact with the typical NWN creatures, trust me!)
==== Custom portraits and music.
==== Special rules for food and drinks (No, you don't need either to survive although it helps! It's just another good way to heal up!)
==== With a good perform skill check you can even sing and play music to gain benefits for a certain amount of time.
==== Events based on gender, race and class. (Ex: Rogues get XP by using their skills, sorcerers can tap magic from mana crystals, dwarves could notice unusual stone work etc�)
==== Highly detailed areas. (You won't find many modules with area design similar to mine!)
==== Great mood based on sound and visual effects!
(The ugly!)
==== Puzzles and riddles. You'll need to use your head to overcome them. (Some are simple, while others are complicated!)
==== Gold will add weight, so you need belt pouches or some other bag to carry a big amount.
==== Resting is only possible at inns and into allowed rooms unless you build a campfire by carrying wood.
==== Some creatures are stupid and cowardly while others are resilient and smart!
==== Fixed camera SURVIVAL HORROR a la Resident Evil!

This is a Terrifying NWN module experience you will never forget! ;)

To all missing the CEP haks... U need to D/L all CEP's even the older versions to play some of the older MODS. I know this bytes specially for those that have slow Internet speeds. The way i did it a long time ago is I D/L the CEP v1 -2.1 installed starting with v1 all the way to 2.2 along with patches in order. as u will need the older one like i said for older Mods. This includes talk files too ya'll for some... Have a Wonderful Morning.. Shadow... aka if there r spellin errors so sorry as its 3:30 am here and still waking up;)

Hmm, well I think I know what the problem is now. So I'll try and get a rating up later

Hmm, when I try to run I get a missing hak dealy, and the log says: Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "ceptexture.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cepportrait.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cepplace.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cepcreature.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cepbaseitem.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cepanatomy.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep2da.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep1patch.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep1patch150.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep1patch152.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep1patch153.hak" Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "cep1patch168.hak" The answer seems obvious enough but I've installed the CEP a few weeks ago and presumably its all working as other modules that require the CEP run fine.

This was a very good mod! I took my female elven rogue from the first part through and ended up at level 10, almost 11. I don't normally enjoy the surviving horror stuff (really hate the undead!) but this was very well done. I especially liked that the torches can keep the undead away. The ambiance, atmosphere, storyline and dialogue were brilliant. The only issues I had were that once or twice Stanley was referred to as Sarah and my "her" as a "him". Too bad it doesn't look like there's a part three. I'm going on board to see if there are any Greyhawk setting mods that may suit my girl. _________________________ Well...who would have thought THAT would happen? NWN Reviewers Forum: Link

Brilliant,, though I hated the camera mode. I loved the Surviving Horror to. Hurry up with number 3 (looks to try another char type :p ) _________________________ Dalethfc

I enjoyed this module too, very nice. During the looting is something nonsense, even if my player is lonely in a closed room can be seen when force locks and steal things...

I really enjoyed the storyline and I like how dark the feel of the mod was. I liked it much better than the first one because the different screens weren't as confusing to navigate. (I kept getting lost in the swamp in part 1 when all the map markers said 'Exit' which is NOT a big help.) The only issue I had was that for some reason when I first got back to the Keep after Dragon's Den everyone called me a thief and some attacked me on sight for stealing from one of my own. I am positive my Lawful Good character didn't do that! I had to start over (yes, yes rookie mistake forgetting to save often...I just get so addicted to quicksave!). Anyway, good work here. It's a real shame there won't be either a better ending or a part 3. That said, I absolutely detest when we are promised another sequel and it's abandoned. I get it that life gets in the way but would an update to make the ending better be too much to ask? Throw me a bone here :) _________________________ The less you know, the more you believe.

Fantastic module. I loved the atmosphere and the music, only issue I had was some of the bland cursing in the dialouge, and that didn't pop up very often. I'm amazed this module flew completely under my radar until just two days ago, definately deserves a higher spot in the module listings.
