I would start a new game before you rule out the ranges.2da. Many of the parameters from the 2da actually get stored in your save game, so to be 100% sure you need to start a new game. After checking the NWN forum I am pretty sure this is the 2da fi...  [Read More]

Shangoman, check out the post I left you on your other thread. Reading a small decompiled script is hard enough, but the k_ai_master is one of the biggest scripts and it would be just about impossible to figure it out. I would recommend that you send...  [Read More]
