Description
�Heroic Dream� is a training module and there are plenty of them on NWVault. What are the difference between �Heroic Dream� and the others? �Heroic Dream� focuses more on the support of char-building/char-testing and combat, and there are some cool features designed for them which are not included in other modules of the same type. Also, the English writing in �Heroic Dream� is not as good as the others� The aims of �Heroic Dream� are making char-building/char-testing faster and making the combat more exiting and has more variations.
�Heroic Dream v1.3� is much faster in loading and smaller in size than the old version, coming with more features and more creatures (thanks for Wild Bill�s MM series). Here are some reasons you should give it a try:
# Char-build Manage System - Manage your char-builds using NWN2�s database.
# Fast Summoning - REDO, Store/Load/Rename your summoning operations.
# Random Encounter � A quick way to give your party some challenge.
# Party with ANY creatures or char-builds
# Team fight mode � Join one team or just be a spectator and watch the game.
# 70+ new creatures coming from Wild Bill�s �Monster Manual Series�
ANY comment is welcome!

Thanks for your feed back, ActorOfVeil. The bug you mentioned is in fact a bug of official portal trigger provided by toolset, the solution is using keyboard (not mouse click) to control your character going through the portal and the transport will be triggered.
The "Secret Area" is not designed for player, it's a "rest room" for the char-builds and monsters you summoned in game - before they entering the main stage, that area is where they hide. _________________________ Try this trainer & arena mod: Heroic Dream

Very well-desinged and professionally made. The versailty of the combat is amazing. Although I noticed one bug: when all the monsters were defeated I couldn't go back to the shopping area.
One other question:
A POSSIBLE SPOILER STARTS FROM HERE
I looked Heroic Dream from the toolset and I noticed some interior area titled as "Secret Area". What's that all about and how can I get there in the game?

Hematite82: If you're concerned about WinAce or WinRAR because of cost, check out 7zip -- it can handle .rar files (amongst many others) and is free. //www.7-zip.org
Is it possible to export one of the included Char DB Official Builds as a PC Character that can be used in a campaign? So for example if I wanted to export the Official Build Duelist character as a PC Character to use in MOTB, or some other module, can I do it? And if so how :)
I am having a problem. I just downloaded the mod and started it up, I have the sword and I am hanging out by the balor demon and the zombies. I think this is a cutscene, but I am stuck here and cannot leave the area. I have tried reinstalling the mod, but the same thing happens. Am I a complete idiot and there is somewhere I can go?
Does this mod come with several pre-made character builds in the database thingy? If so, I must have installed it wrong as I am not able to access any character builds by talking to the character build npc. Someone please advise on this. Thanks

A good and useful tool for what it does and some really nifty scripting.
Personally, however, I prefer both Vordan's Hero Creator and Berliad's FRW Character Creator, they are both more straight, easy to use and to the point and way more useful for quickly creating and equipping a character for another module.
This one here will probably be way better suited for building and testing characters for PvP or multiplayer, but I can't really judge that. Qualified recommendation in any case! _________________________ With magic, you can turn a frog into a prince...

Thanks. This is an excellent training module and arena for testing builds, recommended to anyone.
I'm so glad to see you guys can find "Heroic Dream" in NWVault and enjoy playing it. "Heroic Dream" is not so popular as the other modules but it's different in some ways.
This module is not designed for server but I think it will work perfectly in a server with no more than 10 players. It will be quite simple and quick to give players some monsters to kill or test the players' team-play skills. Random encounter will work correctly for player team as I designed.
Thanks again for your comments and votes! _________________________ Try this trainer & arena mod: Heroic Dream

To Aredhel371:
You must use your KEYBOARD to control your char and let him walk/run through the portal. The transition will ONLY be triggered by KEYBOARD control because I used the default area transition trigger supplied by TOOLSET which is buggy. _________________________ Try this trainer & arena mod: Heroic Dream

Hi - very impressive so far!
But I've got a silly question:
when in the "arena" it seems to be impossible to return to the other "platform"!? It's said to use the portal, but this didn't work for me! _________________________ Aka Gront0307 - because of a second adress..;-)
