Karmas Questions

Post by Karma »

I have a few questions for you.

Firstly. Is there a Dasaria 2 Builders Module, that is available to me that I can use to make content? I have a lot of mapping experience (Worked in developing areas for NWN1 ROTR, NWN2 Myths of Atalan, NWN2 Shards of Vael) Not so much in the scripting angle, but I really enjoy making areas, especially interiors. I can show examples if you become curious.

My other question pertains to the Player housing. I've been shown a few of the homes in the game so far( In cear and Two bridges? maybe ravenswatch) and I am wondering, if a player saves up enough and buys the home, if there is any room for customization of the layout. And if this is possible, if a player was able to save enough for the property, and put in the rp to be established on Dasaria, if a player such as myself(an experienced builder) could just make their own home in the Toolset( of the same size) and submit it for that purpose.

We do not have a builder module. If you want to show us samples of your work, you can send it to dasaria.builders@gmail.com.

As far as housing goes, we've provided a few floor plans from which players can choose. These houses are created and destroyed dynamically. There are no static houses and thus no custom layouts.

I actually have about a million pictures. I don't want to clog up your email with dozens of pics, but I can provide a link here to my portfolio. The vast majority of stuff I have made is interiors. I simply love making interiors that are true to the shape of the building is it on the outside.

I would really like to do some work and contribute something to the server! Please have a gander at my work looks like and give me something to make for you :) When I speak to the ends of a builders module, I mean more of the placeables haks. I'm not sure what the list for Dasaria 2 looks like, so there isn't much in my vanilla TS

We try to keep the module as efficient as possible. We wont add a hak until it's used by the module.

The resource name, tag and template resref should be identical. They should be in the format psc_karma_<short name>.

No visual effects on weapons.

No uses per day Items (unless they have limited charges).

Nice items with good lore. As soon as you make the corrections above, I'll add them to the loot pools.

Is it possible to suggest hakpacks for you to look at adding to the server? If you could add these, I would be more then interested to build you some areas using them.

I am really surprised Das doesn't have this hood in there, the face covering one. I think it would be well received :P

Everyone will be wearing them. 8)

Yep, I mentioned those hood on the IRC a few times, but I guess I didn't think of making a forum post. I used them in another PW and they look pretty cool (and would allow you to cover your face without looking like Darth Vader or Shredder from the Ninja Turtles).

Maybe there's something useful in here as well: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NW ... tail&id=63
