Perhaps 4 to 10 hours to visit all the areas, though respawning scaled encounters make the mod a persistent world.

Description
Deadlands is an expansion of the wondeful modules "The Quick and the Dead" and "New California" by Von Django using Forrestwolf's revolutionary "Firefly System". The mods have been combined and expanded with new material for a peristent world setting, because I loved the modules so much I didn't want them to end. Thanks to Shawn for giving me the idea. Characters cannot be made on a multiplayer server directly without altering base NWN files. A possible solution to that is here: http://joelapenna.com/bin/d20mUpdater/
although I just had my friends make characters in single player and send me their .bic.
Some people like lazer guns and spaceships with their monsters. :) It's at least a fun break if you want a change from the same things you've seen hundreds of times. Back in the 80's I enjoyed the rules in Dragon magazine for modern weapons. You can throw in a little future time travel to your fantasy stories. But it it's still just not for you, I respect that.
Cutberth, thanks very much for your vote and comments. I couldn't get the scripts for driving the car and gravbikes to work well, so I made them unuseable. I was hoping to make this a PW with a builder team, etc, but the problems of hosting it in multiplayer format made that hard. To get the full effect of what you're talking about, it takes a DM and a group of players to crew the ship. You might consider using Forestwolf's Nightfire system with a group of friends to do that. Or a better modder/scripter than I could expand the ship and planets part of the adventures. I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

I really enjoy these mods, they remind me of the days long past when I enjoyed hours of playing traveller with my friends. I did play this mod most the way through but I was not able to drive the car? Was there something I missed? Good mod, lots of fun, I really would like to see more interaction on the ship, kind of like being the captain and having a crew with landing party adventures on several planets, just an idea. _________________________ Everything is nothing
