Title: Dragon Statue in Ft Vehl temple.
Post by: Alatriel on March 14, 2010, 02:34:12 PM

Could we change the Dragon Statue to something more stone-looking instead of green?  If gold is possible it would be best, but having a green dragon in there... just feels wrong.

This would involve a re-skinning, which isn't that difficult, but is time-consuming.  (Testing, getting the colours right, etc.)

I'd encourage you to fiddle with the tga, however (as soon as you find it - there are a LOT of placeables. :S ) - if nothing else, you can stick your modified .tga in your override folder and have the dragon of your dreams there, at least.

Things you'll need to get started:

• The Gimp (http://www.gimp.org/)
  
• The NwnExplorer (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=248)
  

And here's a brief how-to (http://nwn.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=42377&forum=55) from the BioBoards.

Have fun experimenting!

I actually have the placeables and could alter it to stone, but to make it gold I'll have to play with it some.  Thanks for the extra info.
