If you find that caves in NWN are awfully flat.
No chasm, no underground river.
This is for you !
So i made three placeables "roof caves" to design interiors caves with outdoors maps.
To Use it, first, map your area using exterior map. Design the wall of your cave with the terrain tool.
After that take one of the three placeables scale it to fit your area. Adjust height to the top of your "walls".
-----------------------------------
Convert this placeable to environment object.
------------------------------------
Adjust light of your area ( no day/night cylce), color etc etc.
That all. You got a nice cave now.
NB : Exteriors areas are much much larger (Mo Vs Ko ) than interior areas. So use it in small mod or just in some areas.
-----------------------------------
BIG UPDATE !!!!!!!
Tiles are more easily usables, flatten edge.
And provide 9 textures for each placeables.
Use toitv2.hak file
Note about this hak file.
This hack file include a placeable.2da with the new models. So if you want use this hack with another one who use the "placeable.2da" file you must merge the files.
Hi, I can't get it to work for me. I keep getting the message when I go to add the hak that it can't be found. I successfully imported the erf but the placeables don't do anything. Any suggestions for me? thanks Justin

8.5 Very useful, could not have recreated some of my old NWNUO areas without it, but the roof had a tendency to collapse, dropping to ellevation 0 after a bake no matter whether I locked the height or not. I got around this by baking THEN adding the roof. A bit more documentation would be helpful. -Doh! be nice if I actually posted the score, eh?

Suggestion: Would it be possible to have no texture on the upper side, so that it doesnt block the mini map? Or is there a way to prevent that?

This is genuinely groundbreaking stuff. Highly recommended. Fantastic idea. Excellently implemented.

I am still trying to get it to work for me, but take in mind I am not very good at any of this. I am working on the mod. Raider's of Galath's Roost, and I have a map with a steam underground. So this is priceless once I get it to work. Thank you _________________________ Squeeky wheel gets the kick

It's a great idea ... really making stuff possible that otherwise wouldnt be
