Darque Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) ...on topic. I was going to ask this before the other thread was closed, but didn't get a chance. When you said "Lone Wolf" did you mean the game world with the Kai warriors or whatever? Or is this something else?

Hurlshort Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Yeah, it's the same game world, and this guy did two unbelievable chapters before he disappearded. Basically he develops characters very well and makes you face some tough decisions. It's an awesome example of a well made mod. http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Modules.Detail&id=3868 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darque Posted January 13, 2006 Author Share Posted January 13, 2006 Awesome Thank you for the link too I've been looking for a reason to reinstall NWN, I'm going to have to download this and try it So he disappeared? That's a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 The rumor was he got hired by Bioware. I heard the guy who did the Dreamcatcher series was offered a job as well, but he didn't want it. I guess that's one way to get into the industry.

Llyranor Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 The Lone Wolf dude didn't get hired by Bio. He did however make the Shadowguard digital distribution module. It's never been a secret that Bio pays attention to good NWN modmakers. Stefan Gagne was offered a job, IIRC. Heck, even in the standard application process, you're told to write a NWN mod (as the preferred method). Not to mention there's a NWN writing contest right now, with the 10 winners having a chance to get considered by Bioware. Due ~ 2 wks. 3500 words, 3 NPCs, 4x4 area. Sidequest.

CoM_Solaufein Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 NWN has good little modules. Witches Wake and SoU are good mods.

Gabrielle Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I ws only aware of the official mods that Bioware did. Bhah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Of course he got paid. Dragonlance Adventures team were employed to make some art stuff for Pirates of the Sword Coast. Stefan Gagne was originally hired to do a DD mod for Bio as well, but Wizards of the Coast didn't allow it because the mod wasn't 'Forgotten Realms' or whatever crap. Go go WOTC! On the bright side, he released it for free instead http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=modules.Detail&id=4078 (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 "but Wizards of the Coast didn't allow it because the mod wasn't 'Forgotten Realms' That doesn't even make sense. Outside of POTSC none of the PM are set in the FR. Hmmm.... DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Maybe not FR per say, but they didn't like the setting. Go go WOTC! (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Probabaly. They're fickle. It's almost random. Afterall, these are the same people who allowed BIo to change the Divine Champion; but then stepped in and took a fit when BIO wanted to change the Harper Scout. R00fles!

Volourn Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Addenum: The below is a PW. It's an Action. Very little, or even no role-playing. Lots of fun for combat oriented. Well balanced espicially for groups. Various rules changes for resting, death, and spells. Try it if you like to test yourself in combat. If not, go away. 66.108.230.68:5121 Underdark Adventures II DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Hades Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Well, I am running NWN again. I am going through the NWN OCs and the Shadowlands/Dreamcatcher/Demon series to gear myself up for NWN 2. I want to remember how the things in NWN worked and why I disliked some parts of it before I go into NWN 2. I beleive that NWN 2 will be superior in almost every aspect to NWN 1 and I just want my brain to realize that when I play it. My brain is a strange thing that often gets in the way of my own tastes.
