Final Dracolich by The Overdroid
Aug 26 2002

NOW INCLUDES HAKPAK SUPPORT!

Hello Undead Dragon enthusiast, congratulations on downloading my NWN
Dracolich model. 

First some non-official disclaimers, notes and HOO-HA:

1. This model was built from a Dragon model that came with the
NWN game. Because of the klugey nature of its construction and the
fact that NWN does not officially support the import of models it
might not work on your system or might cause problems. I refuse to
be held responsible. Use it at your own risk.

2. Feel free to alter or repackage this model to your heart's content.

3. This model has HakPak support. As of the release of this model the Appearance.2da file
in a HakPak does not overwrite the appearance.2da for the game. You might have to alter you
Override folder to use this model (although see below).

4. This is just a model and only alters the appearance of a creature. You'll have to
find a creature with similar stats to what you are looking for and change them to suit.
No custom scripts are included.



HOW DO I USE THIS SWEET MODEL?

THERE ARE NOW TWO VERSIONS!

The easy way (DOES NOT USE OVERRIDE FOLDER!):

1. Unzip the appropriate files (which you have already done or you wouldn't be 
able to read this).
2. Put the dracoNOVER.hak in the hak directory of your NWN directory.
3. Open the toolset 
4. Open a module. Click on the "Edit" menu and select MODULE PROPERTIES. In the Module Properties window that opens, click on the ADVANCED tab, and from the Hak file drop down list select DRACONOVER.
5. Create a dragon (or some other creature you want to start with to create the statistical template for your "dracolich").
4. Right click on the creature and select PROPERTIES. 
5. In the creature properties window select the BASIC tab. Click on the Appearance tab and select PENGUIN.
6. Your creature is now using the dracolich model.
7. If you feel that you desperately need the penguin model and the Dracolich model together in the same module, I can do nothing but say - "why?" Anyway, it orginally overwrote the Silver Dragon model, but I got tons of flak for that - so now it's the penguin. Of course you can use the other method detailed below.


The more technically savy way:
1. Put the dracolich.hak in your hak folder.
2. Put the appearance.2da file in override folder.
3. open a module and activate the hak.
4. Select "Custom Creatures" from the appearance menu.
5. Note that the appearance.2da is included in the HakPak, at some point if the 2da's are correctly overwriten by Hak files you shouldn't have to do it manually.
