Description
IMPORTANT : The latest version of the guide is now in the 1.69 Lexicon tutorial and function sections. However, the demo on this page is still current.

This unofficial guide has been produced to help module builders to use the horse system and creature scaling introduced in NWN 1.69.

A player tutorial and FAQ is available at the 1.69 Riding Academy.

There is also a forum for horse questions.

The Builders' Guide covers

- Impact on existing modules.

- Simple steps to get started.

- How the horse system works.

- Module building in depth.

- Creature scaling.

- Custom creature integration outline.

- Lexicon of functions and switches.

A basic understanding of the Aurora toolset, NWScript and 2da files is assumed, but 3D modelling skills are not required.

There is also a demo module for horses, with an erf file which you can import into your own modules.

If you like, you can customise the demo as a sandbox to try out more of the optional features.

Demo features include

- OnModuleLoad and horse OnSpawn scripts with templates for the many optional switches and variables.

- Basic conversations which allow the PC, a henchman, or the whole party to manage horses.

- A custom menu using the new chat functions in 1.69.

Thanks to Deva Winblood, Azbest, Brian Chung, OldMansBeard, Barry 1066, Ollebroc, The Krit, Fluffyamoeba, FriendlyFire, JP, Thrikreen, Hardpoints, Invisig0th, Axe Murderer and others too numerous to mention.

If you want to see the new visual effects in 1.69, try VFX Viewer by Donkey Hotay.

For some community extensions to the horse system, see DM Horse Menu & Humanoid Riders by ShadowM, Jousting System by Suspender, Blackguard Summoned Horse by Ollebroc, The Krit's alternate horse scripts, a fix for horse theft, a horse stable and (of course) CEP 2.1.

If you find the demo module scripts useful, there are more on my Travel Builder page.
