Fantasy Name Generator

Are you a mod builder that is stuck for names for your NWN2 companions or npcs? My secret weapon is a cool online tool known as the Fantasy Name Generator. It will give you first and last names of female and male characters. The site also has a drow language converter too!

Do Wendersnaven exist?

Who knows? :)

But, there is a cool resource site with that name that will help out us mod builders: http://www.wendersnaven.com/

Resources, links, tutorials, a forum and much more...all for NWN2 builder enthuiasts!

I just found a video of Grobnar and his singing debut in the OC of NWN2:

Scripting Tutorials

As a builder of NWN2 modules, you can't do too much unless you have a basic understanding of scripting. Now, I had zero knowledge when I started last Fall and I had to search high and low for little tidbits of how to use or find a particular script.

Luckily, I came across two useful sites... the first was by Jassper at:
http://www.noobscorner.jassper.com/ It is definitely helpful for us noobs to scripting.

Then another site popped up this year that really helped me out with scripts for custom waypoint AI as well as step by step beginner tutorials. http://www.nwn2scripting.com/

Stuck for a plot?

If you are a mod builder and are stuck for a plot for your NWN2 mod... then I've got the perfect site for you. It will help those creative juices flowing: The Big List of RPG plots

I use it for side quests or even the occasional main plot idea for a module...

VFX Editor

The VFX editor has always been very confusing for me and I decided yesterday that once and for all I would try tackling it again. Luckily for me, I found an easy to understand tutorial on the basics at the Vault: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2Tutorials.Detail&id=21

It still takes quite a bit of time to create a special effect, since you are forever tweaking one variable or another - but at least I know how to use the editor now which is important for any builder interested in customizing vfx.
