Adds blood splatter to the ground during combat which slowly shrinks and then disappears after time. The splats roll along the ground no matter the lay of the land (they are projections). If the engine ever supports projection effects FADING after time instead of shrinking, then I'll update to that. Still looks pretty sweet, though.
The splats match the color of blood from the creature or PC hit (red for most humanoid, green for spiders, etc, etc).
There are two versions: the hak version (more professional) and the override version (so that you can use it like Unobtrustive Spell Buffs and have it active in your override directory whether the module uses it or not).
Install Instructions FOR HAK VERSION
1: Extract the "cambs_combat_splat.hak" file into your "hak" directory (.../My Documents/Neverwinter Nights 2/hak).
2: If you are a builder and you want this hak required for your module then assign it via the Module Properties and be sure to give players access to the required hak.
Install Instructions FOR OVERRIDE VERSION
1: Extract the contents of the rar into a place on your drive where you can find them easily.
2: Copy the entire "Camb's Combat Splat" folder into your Override Folder (the one within your My Documents/Neverwinter Nights 2/Override)
NOTE: Please note that professional Custom Content creators are shying away from releasing "override only" versions of their content. Why? Because things in the override folder affect your updates (you need to pull them out when patching) and mess with things that could ruin your gaming experience on modules not designed to use them. Most custom content creators name their override files something to prevent this from happening too often, but it is still a risk.
Version 1.1 Fixes a texture blending issue with black blood (previous version looks like it has alpha switched). Replaces only the two black blood SEF files, nothing else.
PS: Yes, this package still works with MotB and will probably continue to work for a long long time (unless OEI changes what FX blood uses, which is unlikely) :)
