This tutorial guides you through the creation of your own custome user interface screen for Neverwinter Nights 2. The screen is responsible for allowing the user to change their characters name. This is an illustrative example but you could easily extend it for a variety of other purposes. A sample module is included that allows you to ask a gnomish 'name changer' to change your name for you, this just shows one use of such a script and screen.
A very good tutorial covering the basics of GUI modding, with a comprehensive documentation and a straightforward demo module.
So, well, recommended to anyone who's in need of a kickstart in customizing UI.
One thing though for the author : I would suggest using the Neverwinter Nights 2 folder in "My documents" instead of "C:\Neverwinter Nights 2\UI\default" as written in the readme.

Nice piece of work, lots of good information and will make a good reference for this type of UI/script interaction.
I sent you an email with some very minor issues I found with the pdf document. One was an unfinished paragraph that I would like to see finished so that I can learn more. _________________________ If you like the United Colors mod, check out this extension for it! Link
