EFU Haks

[Deception]

Hats/masks and custom VFX's and spells... always more spells. Stuff like scrying and whispering wind is sick!

Oh, and aberrants models. Must have more aberrants.

It might be relevant to also introduce portraits into the launcher, so that we have a consist pool that all the players are choosing from. A lot of the server's portrait packs are a bit scattered.

I hate to spam, but THIS THIS THIS. Portraits are such wonderful ways to help express a character quickly. After losing ALL of my portraits, it's quite frustrating seeing the same brown shadowy figure for everybody, even after a good effort trying to recollect them. =(

[Spiffy Has]

A portrait pack is an easy way to cause an immense bloat to the launcher. It is neither healthy or an appropriate use for it. Just my humble opinion.

[Ebok]

That doesn't mean we cant assemble a huge pack separately.

Why?

[Howlando]

Yes, portraits are not at all likely to be included in the launcher. We want to keep the files that are automatically downloaded fairly small.

Some stuff I would like to see, though I don't have links to haks that actually do it:

Some kind of fix to stealth to make it impossible to identify someone if you have only heard them, but not spotted them. Would also fix the irritating aspect of having to hope people who hear you, but don't spot you, are experienced enough in NWN to know the difference when they RP pointing you out by name.

Maybe finally fix it so you can target an invisible PC/NPC with item/ability/spells as long as you are right next to them to see the target.

Hoods for all races

Custom tool to let players choose between some list of fighting styles to determine the animations in combat for their PC (seen something similar, but not very well done before). Some of the fighting style animations are truly awful.

Some stuff I would like to see, though I don't have links to haks that actually do it:

- Mauls, Falchions, Heavy Picks, Shortspears, Heavy Maces, Javelins
- Option to wield a medium sized weapon with two hands
- Monkey Grip feat
- All sorts of weapons either sheathed/strapped at the back, including shields
- Tons of new Head models

^ Perhaps better than a hak, a script to use throwing javalins:

I can't believe so few have mentioned an official EfU head pack yet. I am so sick of having to fit a concept into the same twenty or so head types.

There are some great heads (and some not-so-great ones) that can be culled from the CEP, and I still have a lot of nice heads from a few other servers that I have not been able to find anywhere on the Vault. I would be happy to dig them up and submit them for review.

On that subject, there is quite a lot of good headwear on the Vault, the most significant of which are disguises and hooded masks. If we're finally at long last using haks now, we have a very simple way of solving a longstanding problem on EfU, remedies for which have previously included barkskin and pot helms. Just a clear way to signal to other players that you are making a conscious in-character attempt to conceal your identity, that's all I ask for.

[Tassabryl]

It would be really cool if we could get some other phenotypes too. I dont know of what's available offhand, but OBESE or FIT, seems a bit extreme.

[Ebok]

Anyone know of any good additional PrC's? There is always the possibility of putting in and scripting forever our old PrC's too.

[Spiffy Has]

Dinosaurs!

Cause you know, Dinosaurs.

Lets keep the Hak packs to follow the "Relatively small" guidelines. Like the tileset ideas and such?

Please, no 'Hood' helmets, please.
