Description
Updated August 30th, 2009 for patch 1.23.1765
Quick guide to which version to install:

Toolset patch: 1.23.1765 ->
GFsCreatureCreationPlugin1.2302.zip
Toolset patch: 1.22.1588 ->
GFsCreatureCreationPlugin1.2203.zip

The creature creation wizard fills a much-needed gap in NWN2. It addresses some of the awkwardness of creating new creatures by providing a wizard that assists you in creating them from scratch:

  • Consolidates the essential elements needed for creating creatures

  • Automatically sets appearance based on selected (sub)race.

  • Allows partial preview of soundset

  • Allows extensive appearance customization

  • Auto-creates a tag and resref, and takes reasonable precautions to ensure a unique resref. Both can be changed as part of the creation process.

  • Allows you to choose up to four classes, and takes a best attempt at allocating skills, abilities, feats, and spells. The NWN2 rules engine is used for about 90% of this process. Each class can have its own associated package.

  • To encourage use of project standards, options now available for common variable/script sets and builder tag prefixes.
  • Allows you to adjust the ability scores before auto-assigning spells & skills, so that multi-classed NPCs don't run into issues with disallowed spells

  • Sets reasonable defaults for AI scripts, movement rate, and hit points.

  • Simple interface for choosing alignment and faction.

  • Provide simple spreadsheet-like interface for editing CR of all custom creatures

  • Lets you retain existing creature appearance by copying the appearance of another template

  • Calculates challenge rating automatically

  • New preferences for fine-tuned control over how hit points are allocated.
  • Various bug fixes and usability enhancements.
