This is the NWN Aurora Toolset Help Guide - UPDATE. It is an updated version of the finished project for use with the Aurora Toolset. It includes a complete look at the Toolset's main window, with tabs explaining the Toolbar, Palette, and Cameras. The archive contains a text file detailing this project. Many thanks for all of your support.
See my post below in the comments section for the new content added.
Total Scripts - 116 Total Tutorials - 34
NOTE: Links added for the HTML zipped version, and a Printable version. Thanks Maximus!
Howdy, My sincere apologies for not getting back to this earlier, I've been doing some graphic work and I've too many irons in the fire. Ok, first off my sincere appreciation for the comments, and I'm very happy to hear that your finding the guide to be a benefit to your building AND avoiding bad habits. 8) Your comments really made this extra work worthwhile, and if it helps but one person create a module easier, then I've accomplished my goals. As to a HOTU update, at this point I don't have it installed, so it would be difficult for me to add that data without doing a jump foreward over SOU. Does that mean I won't update the guide at some point in the future ? Well, after this latest massive update, I can't say never, but unless I find enough scripts and more information to be covered, I'd say the odds are slim at this time. My main concern was to include most of the data for the Aurora toolset, and some things just could not be included - unless you wanted to d/l a massive 60 meg file. lol So, know that I'm here, and am still active in the community, and do have an eye out for new materials. Cheers, Reginald Silverleaf

This should be part of the toolset itself. Any builder without this will spend an inordinate amount of wasted time deciphering that which has already been deciphered. The rosetta stone of the Aurora Toolset. Yes, this information can be determined on your own but ask yourself this question: why? Reginald Silverleaf has done a fantastic job of maintaining this and has shown no signs of faltering under the weight of his duty. Reginald, I salute and thank you. You've made my life much easier!

Reginald, I have been trying to promote your guide at each opportunity. Even though I have been building for some time, I still find the document fantastic reference. It also keeps me out of bad building habits. :-) ALSO- If I wanted to put a link to this guide in my signature on the bioware boards, how do I do it. The standard [url] [/url] doesn't work for me. Will you be doing any updates to include HotU, I know a lot of people are wanting to know how the Shop/tavern etc waypoints work.

Nissa, Your very welcome. Your comment made the last month of work worth every second. Thank you ! 8) I've posted a couple messages about the Guide in the toolset forum, but to be honest it always seems to get overlooked. However, since the update, there has been close to 1000 new d/ls of this guide and the Html version. Thanks again, R.S.

I think this should be advised more (more specifically on the Bioware boards), as it seems of excellent quality to me. Thank you, Reginald :)

Just a small note here: I've uploaded the HTML version zipped archive of this project to the Vault, so when it's available ( within the next 48 hours or so ), I'll be editing this entry and changing the WEB VERSION link to HTML Edition, and putting the link to it there. The Print Option will be changed to Printer Friendly edition - but will be identical to what it does now. Please note that both version are identical, it was just created to give you a choice of download type - be it Windows Help, or HTML Help so you won't need both. 8) Cheers, R.S.

Balthazar, I'm still a beginner with scripts, but when I originally created this, I did so for my own use to help with the toolset. After talking about this with a couple people in the NWN community, they all said that I should make it available. So, almost a year has passed, and I still get the occasional email saying thanks. It is suited for the beginner, and does take care of most of the toolset's features. I could not cover every single detail, or wizard without making this a huge d/l, but I'm hoping you find it useful. Please let me know what your thoughts are when you have the time. 8) Cheers, R.S.

You could not uploaded this in a better time! Hmmm, Is it suitable for a beginner? Will have to check it out...

Zip archive uploaded. It may take a bit for the changes to take effect. Sorry for the confusion. R.S.
