This is the first non-beta D20 Modern Team release; it includes all-new material as well as modern-related resources from the NWN community, compatibility with CEP 2.0, a new base module with a complete translation of D20 Modern rules to NWN, a detailed manual on how to play, DM, and build using the system, and a complete out-of-the-box DM'd adventure.
To install the D20 Modern system for NWN, you'll need the base module and haks/material located on this download page. You'll also need CEP 2.0, which is on NWVault (see the CEP page for installation information of CEP). Unzip or unrar all .hak files to your nwn/hak directory. Unzip other material to the directories included in the archive files: the .mod file to nwn/modules, the .tlk file (mdrn2_tlk.tlk) to nwn/tlk (you may need to make a directory), the .wav ambient sounds to nwn/ambient, and the .bmu music to nwn/music.
Important: When creating new characters, you must create them locally, not on a server.
Also, you must use the following technique exactly:
Load NWN, select New -> Other Modules -> choose Modern Base -> select Use Premade Character (do not select New Character from the first menu) -> then, select New Character button below the Show Pregenerated Characters checkbox.
If you don't do this, the game will crash, so be sure to do it as described.
You can then save your character (Export Character) and provide your .bic file (from nwn\localvault) to your server host. To run a Server Vault game, you'll have to have players send you their character (.bic) files that they made locally and put them in your nwn\servervault under their player name.
Base module (now including DM'd adventure!), manual, DM Guide, credits, and tlk file; updated 10/25/07 for new bug fixes. You'll need to get those new haks to run this, as well as an update to the tlk file.
