This is the first release of Jester's Gear. I've got more ideas, but I just wanted to get this done first - or it would never have been finished! It includes male and female versions of everything.
I felt the plate armor in NWN2 was pretty dull, so I've made four more sets. I'm still not sure about using Zylch's mesh for plate armor - it looks a bit odd when she breaths!
Anyway, this pack has nine outfits and some sample .uti. It includes updated versions of the Chainmail Bikini (both versions), a revised version of Ellen's Plate, two leather outfits and four sets of plate. Unrar it all and dump it in your override directory.
If you like where what I'm doing (or don't!) please comment and vote. Keeps me keen.
Notes:
Feel free to repackage as desired - I like to see people using it. The textures are uncompresssed - I could do DXT5ed ones if wanted, but I prefer the quality. All the textures are now mipmapped, so look much better zoomed out.
I've split it into three so I can upload it - all three files are needed.
Acknowledgements
Thanks to Zylch000 for the female model and textures - I stand in awe of the normal mapping. Also thanks to the Shirtless Saga gang for the male skin (can't do skin - yet)
nice job :) keep doing good hacks... _________________________ "Dust to dust"

9 - Outstanding, a Must Have. Very nice work and it's great to see something out there with both male and female versions available!

The textures are done with CorelDraw and Gimp, normal maps and .dds export with Gimp plugins.

Thanx, great work! What tool are you using for the tex modification? Mirage, CS/CS2? Hope there will be soon a bunch of custom stuff for NWN 2. :D

Sorry DavidFalkayn, the codes you need are just the .uti file names (i.e. CH50, CH51, CH52, LE50, LE51, PH50, PH51, PH52 and PH53). They're just demo items - have fun creating your own (I recommend the RDR item creation wizard)

I'm withholding rating for now as I've just installed the update. I do have a request though: Could you please include a 'readme' so that we'll know the codes to input after giveitem? Or are they the same as the earlier editions? Sorry, but I'm a confused dinosaur still getting used to all these newfangled computer thingies! :) In any event, thanks for all your hard work!

Oh come on Griever, it's only 50Mb - and you can delete the female ones if you really want to save the disk space... Now why is the leather less popular?

Can you separate the female gear from male in archive? So i know which to download :P
