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
