Conversation Character Creator v1.4
|
|
|
|
This is a conversation driven in-game 100% serverside character creator allowing
|
|
the use of custom content on a serverside game from level 1 (including new races
|
|
and new base classes ). It is also more secure than conventional character creation
|
|
methods
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You Need:
|
|
|
|
PRC (current version is 2.2d, but this should work with any
|
|
http://nwnprc.netgamers.co.uk/
|
|
or
|
|
http://nwvault.ign.com/Files/hakpacks/data/1071643329920.shtml

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is an in-game conversation driven character creator. This is designed for
|
|
servervault so that custom content is used at character creation. To work
|
|
properly however, several things need to be done.
|
|
|
|
NWNX2 must be instlled and used to run the module ( http://nwvault.ign.com/Files/
|
|
other/...636009723.shtml ) See the readme included with NWNX2 for instructions,
|
|
its very easy.
|
|
|
|
The NWNX_ODBC plugin included with NWNX2 should be installed and setup. See the
|
|
readme included with NWNX2 for instructions, this is quite straightforward but
|
|
trickier than installing NWNX2. In particular, make sure that the aps_onload
|
|
script is setup and that the database can be read to and from using the demo module
|
|
included in NWNX2. The ConvoCC should work with Access or MySQL databases.
|
|
|
|
To enable the database system for 2da caching, you must set a local int on the
|
|
module named "USE_2DA_DB_CACHE" to 1.
|
|
|
|
In addition to using NWNX2 for database storage, the cache can also be stored as
|
|
object in the bioware database. This cache is only updated when a character is
|
|
created, and is only restored when the module is loaded. This is to keep lag to
|
|
a minimum. To enable this, add RestoreCache(); to your OnModuleLoad script just
|
|
after void main() and add #include "prc_ccc_cache" above void main()
|
|
|
|
NWNX-Leto plugin build 18 must be installed ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/leto/ )
|
|
See the readme included with NWNX-Leto for instructions, its very easy.
|
|
|
|
THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT NOTE Inside the module, in inc_letoscript, the constant
|
|
NWN_DIR must point to your servers hard disk location where NWN is installed.
|
|
After this, the scripts must be recompiled. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT NOTE
|
|
|
|
The player start should be placed in an area with no access to the rest of the
|
|
module. Then you should add code to jump the player to a starting waypoint in
|
|
the mod_cliententer script. There is an example commented out, if you delete
|
|
the comments ( // at the start of the line) then you can simply place a waypoint
|
|
tagged "WP_RealStart" where you want players to be jumped to.
|
|
|
|
You must connect the mod_cliententer script to the modules on client enter event.
|
|
You must connect the mod_clientexit script to the modules on client exit event.
|
|
|
|
Since much of the data is read directly from 2da's, this can be very slow,
|
|
especially for feats and spells where an enourmous amount of data is used. To
|
|
speed this process up, all 2da reads are cached via NWNX_ODBC to form a
|
|
persistant cache. This is a single tabled named "prccache". This means
|
|
that the first time a character is created it is much slower than subsequent
|
|
times will be. Also, whenever the PRC updates, or your 2da files change, you
|
|
should delete the table from the DB. In addition you must delete the bioware
|
|
database named "ConvoCC" when your 2das are updated.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to expand it to include more custom content (for example CEP portraits),
|
|
you need to change the constants in inc_fileends to define the last lines of the
|
|
relevant 2das. You will also need to recompile all the scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may be able to use FastFrenchs NWNX development, I havn't tested it
|
|
particularly, but there is no reason why not. I have also only tested it with an
|
|
MS Access database, though it should work with MySQL too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, there is now a few optional extras. These are toggled by local int
|
|
variables set on the module.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_AVARIEL_WINGS Avariel characters have bird wings
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_FEYRI_WINGS Fey'ri characters have bat wings
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_FEYRI_TAIL Fey'ri characters have a demonic tail
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_DROW_ENFORCE_GENDER Force Drow characters to be of the correct gender for
|
|
their race
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_GENSAI_ENFORCE_DOMAINS Force Gensai clerics to select the relevant elemental
|
|
domain as one of their feats
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_BLOOD_OF_THE_WARLORD Makes Blood of the Warlord only avliable to orcish characters
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_NIMBUSLIGHT Enforces the "moral" feats
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_HOLYRADIANCE
|
|

|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_SAC_VOW
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_VOW_OBED
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_THRALL_TO_DEMON
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_DISCIPLE_OF_DARKNESS
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_LICHLOVED
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_EVIL_BRANDS
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_VILE_WILL_DEFORM
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_VILE_DEFORM_OBESE
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENFORCE_FEAT_VILE_DEFORM_GAUNT
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_RAKSHASHA_FEMALE_APPEARANCE Female rakshasha use the female rakshasha model
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_DRIDER_FEMALE_APPEARANCE Female drider use the female drider model
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_DISALLOW_CUSTOMISE_WINGS Stops players changing their wings
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_DISALLOW_CUSTOMISE_TAIL Stops players changing their tail
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_DISALLOW_CUSTOMISE_MODEL Stops players changing their model at all
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_USE_RACIAL_APPEARANCES Players can only change their model / portrait / soundset
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_USE_RACIAL_PORTRAIT to alternatives of the same race. If you have extra
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_USE_RACIAL_SOUNDSET content (e.g. from CEP) you must add them to
|
|
SetupRacialAppearances or SetupRacialPortraits or
|
|
SetupRacialSoundsets in prc_ccc_inc_e in order for
|
|
them to be shown on the list.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ONLY_PLAYER_VOICESETS Players can only select from the player voicesets
|
|
NPC voicesets are not complete, so wont play sounds
|
|
for many things such as emotes.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_RESTRICT_VOICESETS_BY_SEX Only allows players to select voiceset of the same gender
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_FORCE_KEEP_VOICESET Skips the select a voiceset step entirely, and players
|
|
have to keep their current voiceset
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ALLOW_TO_KEEP_PORTRAIT Allow players to keep their exisiting portrait
|
|
The ConvoCC cannot allow players to select custom
|
|
portriats, so the only way for players to have them
|
|
is to select them in the bioware character creator
|
|
and then select to keep them in the ConvoCC.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_FORCE_KEEP_PORTRAIT Skips the select a portrait step entirely, and players
|
|
have to keep their current portrait
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_RESTRICT_PORTRAIT_BY_SEX Only allow players to select portraits of the same gender.
|
|
Most of the NPC portraits do not have a gender so are also
|
|
removed.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENABLE_RACIAL_HITDICE This option give players the ability to start with racial
|
|
hit dice for some of the more powerful races. These are
|
|
defined in ECL.2da For these races, players do not pick
|
|
a class in the ConvoCC but instead select 1 or more levels
|
|
in a racial class (such as monsterous humanoid, or outsider).
|
|
This is not a complete ECL system, it mearly gives players
|
|
the racial hit dice component. It does not make any measure
|
|
of the Level Adjustment component. For example, a pixie has
|
|
no racial hit dice, but has a +4 level adjustment.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ALLOW_HIDDEN_SKIN_COLOURS These enable players to select the hidden skin, hair,
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ALLOW_HIDDEN_HAIR_COLOURS and tattoo colours (metalics, matt black, matt white).
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ALLOW_HIDDEN_TATTOO_COLOURS
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ALLOW_SKILL_POINT_ROLLOVER This option allows players to keep their skillpoints
|
|
from one level to the next, if they want to.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_USE_XP_FOR_NEW_CHAR This will identify new characters based on X which is
|
|
the same as v1.3 but less secure.
|
|
PRC_CONVOCC_ENCRYPTION_KEY This is the key used to encrypt characters names if
|
|
USE_XP_FOR_NEW_CHAR is false in order to identify
|
|
returning characters. It should be in the range 1-100.
|
|
If USE_XP_FOR_NEW_CHAR is true, then returning
|
|
characters will be encrypted too, so once everone has
|
|
logged on at least once, USE_XP_FOR_NEW_CHAR can be
|
|
set to false for greater security.
