Hi All, I'm modifying NWN visual effects. If you have any ideas or suggestions of effects to make or modify please let me know! ---------------To install, this should be the only file you needThis link will be kept up to date at all times with the latest version! No need to go exploring through the full thread!If you want individual effects, or want to edit them yourself, see the bottom. There are two versions linked below. The top one turns most of the trees in the mod into little potplants (This makes it much easier to see in Rona and Azz) Some people think this is too immersion breaking, so I've also included a second version that omits this. If you just want to install my new effects then all you need is this one .hak file: Once downloaded, put it in the hak folder in your NWN directory

It's not an exploit. You may want to read up on simtools commands, which allow you to hide some vfx (!lowmode, if memory serves).

Yeah Weird visual effect is a real pain and when multiple weird are cast in repetition you see nothing, i highly dislike to see this spell in use

The file I linked above will remove the animation (vff_comweird.mdl). Feel free to use it!

Or, here's an even better idea... Its a bit strange having weird with no animation at all (Hard to tell if its going off etc) I've noticed the timing of the weird death effect actually lines up with the wail of the banshee spell. Wail of the banshee doesn't block view of things anywhere near as badly So, here's a file that replaces the weird animation with the wail animation (You may need one or the other depending on what quality setting you have the game at, easiest to just put both in overrides folder) drive.google.com/file/d/1e4E1_Xz0-otPsPrEorbOFk6LRneJr3az/view?usp=sharingdrive.google.com/file/d/1CyyghV7R8pAr39yLDd1KdYhdp6pgkxPJ/view?usp=sharing(I'm not doing anything particularly special here btw.. just exporting other spells and renaming the file)

I've just done another weird model with the aim of making it not block vision as much. I've made it 50% smaller, and removed the darkness emitters Here's a sample of the change: Original weird: Modified weird: Link to the file here: drive.google.com/file/d/1u7Ns9OKnoVM60sddD-OYg0FpUR2LQaby/view?usp=sharingDon't forget to add _l to the filename if you're on low quality!! vff_comweird _l.mdl Now that i've figured out how to do it, I'm also taking requests if anyone wants any other vfx edited

I would Reach out to Raj to discuss additional vfx - and I'll point him to you as well.
We can update HGE, if we have someone to add the vfx.
We could used a resized 1914, to make it as large as 2134.
Tx, Funky

Done! drive.google.com/file/d/1YscNE423yMKFZO_FtCdECnvB8mKOyoFr/view?usp=sharingOriginal sise: New Model: It does go a little funny with the spacing at the larger size though... it seems to actually be an animation that draws a circle, And I'm still figuring out how to edit so, I might need to fiddle with the timing a little more to make it look smoother... but its a proof of concept. I'll play with it some more tomorrow
