This mod removes the visual effect on your characters such as Barkskin, Stoneskin, and Greater Stoneskin. If anyone has other effects they would like removed just post what they are. I currently haven't gotten far enough in the game to know of any others.

Notes
------------
There are now two versions availible. NoEffects removes skin and ball effects. NoSkins removes ONLY skin effects. The following effects are currently removed.
Would get a 10 if it removed all skin effects. There is one in particular that has been bothering me; the effect for the spell "Tortoise Shell". I have been trying to find its SEF file in the zipped visual effects directories so that I can create an override duplicate with a "blank" visual effect, but this file seems really tricky to find. If anyone knows, or can figure out, how to find the file, do say something. Oh yeah, one other thing...this probably also removes the effects from creatures that use it through scripted means so that they can have special appearances (for example, custom "golems" using the stoneskin effect), but that aspect doesn't bother me personally.

Stuff like this is great and much appreciated, but one thing I haven't seen anyone do that's similar to this, is a mod that removes the annoyingly excessive "dripping" effect of some weapons that do elemental damage and such (acid, fire, lightning, etc). It's overdone, and taxing on the hardware besides. I'd much rather the weapons either show a more more subtle effect indicating the extra elemental damage, or even no effect at all.

It doesnt matter if its inside any other folders as long as its in Override. _________________________ I believe in science and that science can explain everything, Because God has made it all work in such a beautiful way.

I have a question for you: do i need to cut/paste the actual "noeffects1.1" folder and drop it inside my "override" folder, OR do I need to cut/paste the list of files INSIDE your "noeffects1.1" folder and place THOSE inside my "override" folder?

I'm with moondiggidy. It's just the fact that it covers the whole model which bothers me. I recall that in Baldur's Gate I and II, it was just the skin itself that was visually affected. I would also much prefer that in NWN2.
