The promenade is a prominent, oval-shaped marketplace, located in the heart of Athkatla. The Promenade is named after Waukeen, the missing Goddess of Wealth. A good portion of it was destroyed by the evil Mage Jon Irenicus, but has since been rebuilt. Located within the Promenade are general shops, bookshops, homes, a carnival, shops carrying various sundries, inns, and the Adventurer's Mart, run by former adventurer Ribald Barterman.
Remember the playing BG2 SoA? Then you'll remember Waukeen's Promenade. I've tried to recreate the area with NWN2 toolset. I hope to capture every detail in the original and add a little extra to boot. The area was originally intended to be used with my new module I'm working on but I don't think I'll have the time, so I'm releasing this as an area prefab to use as you wish. There's over 3000 placeables covered by an area of 20x16. The main issue was trying to bake this monster. The stairs were the main problem, I could only create a ramp type effect, spent hours trying to figure out a solution, but its the best I could come up with, some stairs aren't baked, this was due to the scale of the city, trying to bake multiple stairs in close proximity to each other resulted in the whole tile not baking.
