Limit playlist*
Block player via script*
Set includes 2 main gui: a mini player and playlist; another "Now Playing" mouse over pop-up gui; wand item and scripts.
I designed this initially to sample music as I play-tested the upcoming campaign trilogy "Tamas", but I think it would be a nice option to give players as well. Be aware that it does actually set the current area's music (day, night, or battle, depending on the circumstance).
Currently there are no DM specific controls, but I have the notion of further design, such as allowing a DM or play-tester to set music in other areas and without current circumstance.
NOTE: Due to toolset limitations, the player does not initialize music status or volume. That is, when initially opened, the play button will be in 'stop' position and volume will be set to '0', though the current area may very well be playing music. Clicking/adjusting them will resolve these issues.
Enjoy! Let me know of any other issues or suggestions.
*(Untested) Limit playlist by setting two global int values, corresponding to the rows in the "ambientmusic" 2da:
BB_MUSIC_MAX_ROW
BB_MUSIC_MIN_ROW
*(Untested) Block music player control via script. See "gui_mp_inc"
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
extract "musicplayer" folder to your MyDocs/NWN2/UI/custom folder. (Or MyDocs/NWN2/UI/ will work, I believe.)
Open test module, import erf and paint placeable wand item. (Category: Music Player.)

Pretty sweet, you can use it in the OC by the putting the ui and extracting the .erf in the override, then compiling the scripts, then using the console to give it to the player.
Wooh!
