I was wondering if there are any Shadowrun Players out there in the NWN2 Community ?
Could those who are into modern stuff (Texturing, Modeling etc...) create something useable for a Shadowrun related module.
Why is everyone designing "Ork Number 123456 instead of creating a nice Car placeable, Streetsigns Modern Clothing etc.
Best thing would be if Stuff is created that fits in more than One Modern Setting, like Skyscrapers, Backallys etc.)
Come on guys, i would do it if Could but i just cant (lack of time and Skill).
I have a couple of people who are interested in converting a Pen and Paper Shadowrun Module or two over to NWN2. We will work on this in several steps:
1. Take all NWN1 haks & mods that will be used in the module and convert them to NWN2.
2. Add all needed rules and gameplay features toi NWN2 that have not been done yet. For example implmenting zooming and very long ranges with sniper guns.
3. Work on base hak sets for other designers wishing to create cyberpunk and other near futurish mods. Get the haks on the vault.
4. Convert a pen and paper shadowrun module to the new system.
SDX, if we can use your NWN1 Shadowrunner nights 1 work for this it would be appreciated, as would any help you can provide.
Also, we will be always looking to add members to the team to help in any way, from graphics, scripting, to writing. We can even put some incentives in like adding your character/avatar into the mods.

I worked on a mod back in the day for NWN 1... it takes a hell of a lot of effort and time - and the problem I ran into is not enough people wanting to code all the translations in NWScript. I was planning on trying to port all of the old material over to NWN2, but unfortunately my laptop, dvds, and external HDD all got stolen so it would be a project starting over from scratch. I'd say if you want to work on it, see if someone has some of my old haks floating around - they might give you some ideas.

Ya great idea, I've always wanted the Devs to put out an expansion that is in an Modern world, instead of just expansions in the fantasy genre if no other reason than so the community could take that content and run with it for new genres to employ. Even put some gun types in to help get the community started. Couldnt someone make a new model for a wand/rod that looks like a few guns/rifles and the amount of charges could be ammo? There are different spell effects that could be applied to different kinds of gunfire. Fire Spray would be excellent for a flamethrower. Fireball = Rocket Launcher, Magic Missil = Guided Anime Style Rockets. Ive often wanted to see more open up in NWN for adapting the Cyberpunk Genre.

I'd definitely be interested in working on a Shadowrun mod, but I'm not quite sure where to start :( _________________________ Living - Breathing - Thinking - Games
