Love NWN? Of course you do. Love Graphics...well. Now you dont have to deal with NWN dated graphics any longer. Thanks to Kalimere showing me this overide, my games never looked better. I cant believe ive been playing it any other way.
Its very simple to do and remove and wont interfere with your game other than get you killed cause you keep gawkin at how darn pretty everything is.
Okay so, Ive placed the links throughout this thread, next to the actual pics. But this may be confusing. So here they all are in a row. If you want to see a pic for what the links do. Read my posts on this thread thoughout.

*All THESE NEED TO BE UNZIPPED THEN COPIED AND PASTED IN YOUR OVERIDE FOLDER LOCATED IN YOUR NWN DIRECTORY. BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR OVERIDE FOLDER SO YOU CAN REMOVE THEM EASILY*

*OH AND YOU DONT NEED THEM ALL BY ANY MEANS. jUST THE FIRST ONE DOES WONDERS. THE NWNCQ IS JUST AMAZING, SO START WITH THAT. AND ONCE YOU KNOW HOW TO DO THAT ITS JUST THE SAME PROCESS FOR THE REST, SO IT JUST GETS EASIER EACH ONE YOU ADD. PROMISE :)*

*OH AND ALSO GO TO PAGE 3 AND READ ETHALOXS POST ABOUT THE BRAMBLES AND TO MANY LEAVES. THEN READ MY REPLY ON HOW TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE BY CHECKING "AUTO" FOR SECOND STORY TILES IN THE GAME OPTIONS.*

This is the place to get the texture overide that updates the environment. I used
NWNCQ_override_basic_by_chico400.rar and the NWNCQ_override_basic_by_chico400_patch.rar
Be sure to read the directions on the site about the "plus version addon" , which I didnt use, but may later. As well as the NWNCQ_override_extended_by_chico400.rar which is the more advanced overide that you may want to use instead of the NWNCQ_override_basic_by_chico400.rar

This is the main creature pack that changes many of the creatures to a different look. Like the Lord of the Rings Orcs and much more.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Creatures.Detail&id=601
This is for Improved Goblins. Though this may be in the creature pack, im unsure.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Creatures.Detail&id=598
And the Undead overide. Be sure to read these as there are options.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Creatures.Detail&id=605
This is for improved Zombies and be sure to read it.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Creatures.Detail&id=597
This is for Improved Ghouls and be sure to read it.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=1433
This is for the color icons for spells, icons, radial menus with writing, etc.

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=1450
This is version 2 for spell icons only. They are improved so put this one in after the one above.

And last one, for now, is the Camera Mod. This one *Does Not Go In The Overide Folder*
Unzip this one in your NWN folder alongside your overide, logs, screenshots folders and the nwnmain.exe.
Also Ive noticed that version 1 always works. But some people have trouble with version 2. So try 1 if 2 doesnt work. Also, since it alters your nwnmain.exe some virus software will think this is a virus due to its behavior. Ive been using it for years so there is no virus. They discuss this on the site even.
Once its in your NWN folder. Run the NWN SoU+HotU 1.69 camera.exe or Version 2 exe and click "modify" when it loads. Sometimes this breaks the link to your shortcut to nwnmain.exe. So you may have to make a new shortcut.

*EDIT**DOUBLE EDIT THERE ARE SOME GLITCHY VISUALS WITH THIS OVERIDE ON SOME BREATH WEAPONS IF YOU HAVE THE CEP. IM WORKING ON TAKING THEM OUT. i PROBABLY WOULDNT USE THIS ONE IF THE TROLLS WERENT SO EPIC*
Added a few more creature overides for some of the beasties that didnt get a change.
Be sure to only dload the three overide dloads Creature_1.7z Creature_2.7z
Creature_3.7z
See the troll and bugbear pics

*EDIT*
This is a program that allows you to use your usb xbox controller with a great amount of customization. I use it for exploring with my wireless controller. Its great to sit back and move, move the camera, auto walk, move the mouse, activate the hot bars, use the tooltip (highlight things of interest like monsters or player names) with a function that holds it down for me, attack, toss spells etc. What ever you want to set it up as. Mind you the controller is no way to play NWN. I use the keyboard and mouse when things get going. Its just great for light movement so you can sit back in your chair.

Well you get the point. Every map I move to is like finding a little present. This is a great way, if youre like me and have been playing with the old look for a few years, of spicing up your game.
The link to the overide is here. These screenshots are done with the NWNQC Basic without the "plus version addon". Though I may try the addon as well as the NWNQC extended later on. But for now, Basic is just fine for me. *Dont forget to use the patch after*

Ill post how I got these later:)

*IMPORTANT STEP* Like all overides be sure to make a backup of your overide folder for ease of removal. Just copy and rename "overide" folder to "overide backup" or whatever is easy. I have a few backups with each stage of my overides so I can go back in stages.
