mod support?

[kodiichan]

that would be so sick

I will look into it, but I cannot promise that there will be. The game was made without that in mind, so I need to see how much work that would entail.

Though I've accomplished this on my own, without any difficulty, the most obvious/easy mod support option would be to allow for players to upload portrait packs. If memory serves this was at one point/may still be 90% percent of NWN mods. lol

That said, the game is marvelous as is.

Yeah, I am curious about this as well, there are some games that are simply bought because it is adaptable or open to modding... if there are willing people, a game can go far beyond its original design.

NWN is a classic example from the 2000s... other handful of classic Bethesda titles from that era such as Morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim (if Todd isn't breaking it) are also examples of that.

For my curiosity, what is/was the tool set used for building this game?

On another note, I'd consult a lawyer about derivative works and how you can protect you and your work if in case something goes wrong (very unlikely, but some people can be ... very creative).

Disclaimer: I have this game on my wish list, but I have not picked it up yet pending my wandering mind and interests.

To clarify I meant that I'd made my own portraits, which, clearly the designer meant for players to be able to do as the option to employ them is baked into the game itself. I have not modded this title to any extent.

Just bought the game, love it, have been looking for a game like this for a long time (and wanted it badly enough I spent a year working on a prototype of something similar).

I wanted to bump this and say that mod support would be incredible if it's possible! I would love to bring in custom portraits, custom traits, custom rare weapons, add monster types, possibly even custom maps. Going Medieval might be one to look at for inspiration since they use text files for mods.

If modding isn't an option, in game generation tools would be nice too.

Failing all of that, please make an xpac. Amazing game, incredible work!
