I noticed there were very few multi-player oriented modules for NWN2 yet, so I thought I'd put this one up.
The story: a chance encounter in a tavern leads to a case of epic mistaken identity; your party is spirited away to a distant land and forced to rescue a remote mountain community from an incursion by slavers.
Suitable for 1-3 (with some caveats; see the ReadMe) PCs of 3-8th level. About 5-6 hours of play time (I think--let me know how accurate I am).
The module takes place in a game world of the author's creation (relevant details in the ReadMe). Custom content includes some visual effects from the community in a HAK file (included with the module download).
June 25, 2007: uplodaded version 0.5. This fixes (I hope) the bug of the statue lady not conversing with the player. Also minor edits to the minotaur's cave; fixed some walkmesh issues and typos.
July 16, 2007: updated to version 0.7. This fixes some issues with slaves, tweaks most of the encounters for balance, adds some extra content in the crypts, and (hopefully) fixes the hanging bug on starting the game.
August 20, 2007: updated to version 0.8. This updates to the current version of Ashura's VFX pack, which should fix the loading hangs some people have experienced. Fixed a lot of typos and minor errors as well. Everything should work now (fingers crossed).
September 24, 2007: updated to version 1.0. The first "real" version, as long as nothing broke which used to work. Thanks to everyone who provided bug reports. Please continue to do so (though, hopefully there won't be anymore).
The module requires two external files: Sorceress Ashura's VFX Pack (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2VisualEffects.Detail&id=9) and Hellcow/Spajk's Cobwebs (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2VisualEffects.Detail&id=23). I used version 3.5 of Ashura and I notice that she's just upgraded to version 4.0. Hopefully this won't cause any problems. If it does, I'll either update A Hero Displaced to use the most recent version or I'll upload the old FX pack.
January 7, 2008: updated to version 1.1. Many of the fixes relate to things which went wonky when I upgraded to NWN2 version 1.10. I have removed the multiplayer cutscenes which, hopefully, will make this more fun to play in multiplayer. There is also one new, optional quest.
February 2, 2008: updated to version 1.2. Mostly fixing conversation link bugs and adding some additional dialog options.
March 26, 2008: updated to version 1.3. Intermediate bug fixes and some added functionality.
This contains a small hak and override which are used in the module. These are the versions of Ashura's FX and cobwebs. If you experience any problems with the module loading, install these haks as per the instructions provided.
