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.
brainfrost, go to the module properties and add 'toitv2.hak' to the 'Hak Packs' tag under 'Misc' category.

very cool idea. Any idea why it isn't working for me? I'm running 1.05. have cleared out everything in the override and hak folders (both sets)except for "toitv2.hak" which is in "my docs/nwn2/hak/". I have imported "toitv2.ERF" into my module (the file lives on my desktop if that matters). The list of cave roofs appear in my placeables list but when i select one nothing appears at the crosshairs for placement. Did i miss something?

Since I'm using this hak in my contest module, I'd better rate it high :) Really, this is a most useful set of placeables that is easy to use. Any chance of providing a 'zipped' package, please?

"Excellent, Recommended to Anyone!" Now I know NOTHING about texturing and creating custum placeables, but it would be awsome if you could somehow only apply the texture to the roof placeables on the side facing the ground so they would be "invisble" from above. Like the "Ore {Caves}" placeable is only visible from the front. Just my 2 cents, keep up the good work!

Très bon, si je pouvais revoter, je le ferai, tu devrais peut être ouvrir un topic sur les fofos officiels pour tenir au courant, tu toucheras plus de gens

Big update Provide 9 textures for the three roof types. The edge of the tiles are now soften for easier use.

Fantastic work! I just have one question, is there a way to make the "ceiling" disappear when zooming out like the ceilings of the interior tiles sets?
