I am working on a very simple custom NWN Tileset for a module. This is the first time I am doing something like this.
As I am creating this from scratch for the first time, I have done homework to find all the resources I could find that are useful.
Many thanks to those at the NWVault (particularly Soren, Tarot Red Hand) and WebShaman for helping me find resources to help me start. And Tonden Ockay’s videos which I found useful and instructive.
Software and Custom Tools I am using (to be updated with time):
Blender 2.92, NeverBlender 2.8 add-on by Symmetric, NWN Explorer, SetEditor BETA 0.85 by Jlen, GFF Editor by Bioware
(Please note this is custom content created by third parties released for free, I can’t be held liable for any issues that arise by users. I personally have not noticed any problems.)
