HAK version: for builders that want to add the new parts to the module they are building. Note: the hak file contains armorvisualdata.2da inside it. Revision 9-27-2009: fixed the hak file to add armorvisualdata.2da.
Override version: for players that want to add parts to already built modules. Note: make sure there is only one copy of armorvisualdata.2da in your override directory.
I'm using the hak version so the prefabs aren't there...there's no ACME Full Metal Packet option. Does the hak file not work on its own then?

Hmm, strange. If you load up the toolset and under Blueprints> Items> ACME Full Metal Packet> Armor you pick one set of prefab armor, e.g. Champion's Plate, and go to the Armor Set tab in the item properties window, what do you see on the torso where the armor ought to be?

No, that didn't do it. I don't have any other armour haks anyway, and the override folders (both the one in My Documents and the NWN2 directory) are empty.
Posted by Aardvark at on08/19/09
Squire, it sounds as if you have a conflicting armorvisualdata.2da file in another hak your use, or in your override folder. Only ONE armorvisualdata.2da file can be in effect. Just temporarily rename your hak and override folders and create a new hak folder where you place the Full Metal hak. Then start up your toolset and see if you can get the armor to work. If it does, you have a conflict.

I can't get the main armour sets to work...anything with an ACME code doesn't appear as a selectable option. All the arm and leg parts and the weapons (i.e. anything with 210 or 211) work just fine. I'm using the Hak version, is there anything else I need to do to get the Acme parts to appear on the list?

also do you guys have a blog or website??
Posted by steelfiredragon at on08/20/09
dumb question, but could you guys do Princess Zelda's dress and add it to this??
Posted by Aardvark at on08/19/09
Ahh, thanks. Now it works beautifully:). With this pak and the Morion helmet I can get busy playing the Dark Waters 2 module and rule the seas with fear in appropriate gear. Great work! (And we need more late medieval/early modern armor pretty please!)

Aardvark: The 2da file is in the root directory of the archive, not inside the folder. Add it to the override directory of your game.

Are you putting it on npc's or is this a player character issue? NPC's need the correct armour proficiencies or they simply do not wear the armour once you load up the area in game and they appear to be wearing default clothes.
