This sword pack ia another great addition to the NWN2 custom content. It is nice to create blueprints for the player or give creatures these new weapon models to keep this new and add a bit of variation from the defaut NWN2 models.

While some of the weapons aren't to my tastes, I appreciate the overall quality of the pack and thankfully the weapons I like vastly outnumber the ones I'm not crazy about. Thanks for sharing these. _________________________ AP Magical Miscellanea Package (v1.5, over 750 items): Link
My download doesn't include any "aldor.hak", if i'm not wrong, that is a spanish PW that may include this sword pack as complement. If you want, download the original files HERE!!
For installing in many ways check the readme and the comments people has done here _________________________ The Ancient NWN Spanish Community Link

nope, if the files are in the override and your character carries the weapon... you won't need to do anything else... although SoZ is played with a new level 1 character ;) _________________________ The Ancient NWN Spanish Community Link

The punching dagger and the shiangam are new base weapons, that's the reason they're in a different hak... they depend of the baseitems.2da file that is inside of the hak, so it is a little more tricky.
Basically follow the Aresmars tutorial/comment but be sure to have the baseitems.2da file in your override folder before starting the game. Obviously you will need the w_pdagger01.mdb located in the same hak.

Howdy! Even with the tutorial and looking on EFF I can't find the number of the model to reskin for the Punch Dagger (my personal must have).
I know I'm gonna sound like an idiot but: could you tell me how to import the punch dagger into OC?

I actually created an account to say thanks for giving such a great pack. I really love Frostmourne and Stormbringer especially. (I also liked Arthas in War 3 but didn't like WoW thatn much).
Also I wanted to pass on a little tip for those people who want to use these weapons in the OC (You will have to use debug commands to get them though):
1) Unzip the rar file
2) Open the NWN2 Toolset, Go to File -> Import, and import the ERF to see the item blueprints (Blueprints -> Custom -> EverFire Forge)
3) Select the Blueprint of the weapon you want. Right-Click and select "Save to File". Enter a name for the weapon Frostmourne for Frostmourne etc and press ok.
4) Now go to Plugins->Erf Editor (Plugins should be next to "help" on the menu bar)
5) Now in the Erf Editor, Goto File->Open. Change the "Files of Type" to "Hak" and open the hak pack.
6) Extract your the weapon you chose (check the site for reference). I.E: i extract the sword 205 which are the files w_lsword205_a.mdb, w_lsword205_b.mdb, w_lsword205_c.mdb, w_lsword205.dds. w_lsword205_n.dds and w_lsword205_t.dds. Basically all the 205 stuff :)
7) Now copy all the files you extracted to the override folder and also copy the file you saved in step 3 as well.
8) Run the game, Activate DebugMode and Type "giveitem XXX" to spawn the weapon. XXX would be name of the file you saved in step 3. So if you called it "Frostmourne" in step 3 then it would be "giveitem frostmourne" etc

I'm sorry guys, but the package contains 15 different swords and will keep growing while the OC contains 5 or 6. That means i have no room to override all :)
Leave you a little tuto for MDBCloner and override the weapons for your OC playing:
- Open the EF hakpak with NWN2packer or the official plugin in the toolset.
- Extract your favourite weapon to convert (check the site for reference). I.E: i extract the sword 205 which are the files w_lsword205_a.mdb, w_lsword205_b.mdb, w_lsword205_c.mdb, w_lsword205.dds. w_lsword205_n.dds and w_lsword205_t.dds. Basically all the 205 stuff :)
- Run MDBcloner
- Open one of the mdb files (w_lsword205_a.mdb). In the name of the mdb change it to a short range: w_lsword02_a.mdb for example (it will override the default model 2 of longswords).
- Click "save clone".
- Repeat these last 2 steps for w_lsword205_b.mdb and w_lsword205_c.mdb
- Done. Open the toolset and checkout that the model 2 is overriding the default.
Well, you have to be sure what model do you want to override from the OC. Make a screenshot of your hero weapon while playing the OC and try to discern what default models are you using with the toolset help.

Is it possible to make an override version? I downloaded the file and MDBcloner, but still can't figure out how to make these swords work in the OC.
