Replaces (some, most?) GUI textures for NWN with BG2-themed textures.
To install just extract the file into your override folder in the NWN directory. It's by no means complete, but it's as much as I could easily do. Things like IG screens (inventory, journal, character) which I would have liked to change and so on are vanilla - as well as the DM client background image, which refused to change.
It was more of a personal project, and would have probably never gotten very far without me seeing the Ravenloft GUI on here and how it worked (which I used for a long time - great stuff).
If there's bugs or whatever else, i'm sorry but i'm not intending on working on this more. The best solution is to just delete the offending images and revert it to vanilla. I know deleting gui_map_pieces.tga stops map pins from not having a transparant background, and not everyone's a fan of the unmarked compass but deleting the relevent file should fix that (gui_compass3.tga I think)
Enjoy! Thanks to the other players on City of Arabel PW who gave feedback. Hopefully it works for everyone :)
The problem was simply to do with not knowing what to edit to change those things (inventory, journal etc.) otherwise i'd vastly prefer to stick in something a little more pleasent to look at than minimalistic grey. It wasn't for lack of trying - I just couldn't locate any sort of texture file for many of these screens and wouldn't be surprised if they weren't uploaded so much as generated, considering that they are by and large a simple flat grey.
Thanks for the comments!

An excellent GUI override. Works very well with Baldurs GUI, they complement each other nicely. A pity that you don't wish to continue this work, as you've pointed in the description, inventory, character and journal screens could really use this theme.

Very well done. The front page takes me back to AD&D Dungeon Masters guide.
Cheers
