I have an embarrassing admission to make

June 15, 2003 by Adam in NWN1

I have an embarrassing admission to make. In over a year of having Neverwinter Nights, I have never played a rogue and set a trap. My new project has custom traps, so I had to learn how to do it and make sure I could pull it off. Sure enough, I managed to fiddle with the .2da files and create new traps that can be set and recovered. The only downside is that I had to overwrite the existing traps, so you won't find the traditional ones in my module. I have only two done at the moment, with six more to go. In this particular screenshot, a poor goblin set off a Dark Vortex trap. Poor sod.

I've been excitedly reading the list of bug fixes in the upcoming patch. The one that stood out the most is the crash when you reload and custom creatures are in the game. Nearly every game I'm making now has custom creatures, so it should help immensely.

There's so much to do that I'm not sure where to start this morning. Perhaps it's time to start adding custom rooms to the player's keep.
