Hak Instructions
1. Download the hak version.
2. Extract the bth_shields_v2xx.hak file to your C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\hak folder. You may need to create this folder if it does not already exist.
3. Extract BTH_Shield_Blueprints_v2xx.erf to your C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\Modules folder.
4. Start the NWN2 Toolset and add bth_shields_v2xx.hak to the module properties.
5. Still using the NWN2 Toolset, open the File/Import menu and select the BTH_Shield_Blueprints_v2xx.erf to import the BTH Shield blueprints into your module's palette.
6. You should be able to use the BTH Shields in your module.
If the numbering of these models clash with other custom content or you want to overwrite the original NWN2 shields with these models, you can re-name the models with RunnerDuck's MDB Cloner tool. (See comments below dated 2008-04-13)
Considering the size of Heavy Shields 70 & 71 it is debatable whether they should be classed as Tower Shields. If you want to convert these models to Tower Shields use Runnerduck's MDB Cloner and rename the MDB Name as w_she_towr70 and w_she_towr71 respectively. Do not rename the Main Mesh Textures. Use the toolset to create new Tower Shield items.

Excellent work! I'm all for realistic/historical stuff.

Again...amazing work! I recommend it to any PW. Will be put to excellent use in my Europa campaign. Just one suggestion, you should add the detailed install instructions you have in your armor page on this one as well, for the newbies...that would make this a perfect 10/10! Erik.

Barry The Hatchet you are a god amongst modders. As someone just learning to use custom content I marvel at your modeling skills and I'm eternally grateful you took the time to explain how to use RunnerDuck's MDB Cloner tool so we can use your work playing the campaigns. Kudos!
