Requesting to add Template Werepanther.
« on: January 08, 2019, 02:57:55 PM »
While I know the template for wereleopard is already present, its not exactly lore friendly to the server. Werepanthers are actually a major staple to the land of Valachan under Baron von Kharkov. Opening this template would infact open another element of RP of one of the lands of Ravenloft. What could also be considered is an alteration of the wereleopard to give it black fur and permittance to call it a werepanther to permit the play of such.

Thank you for the consideration.

I wouldn't mind adding it if there was a proper looking werepanther model/texture.

What about a skin change for wereleopard? Making the fur black for werepanther.

I was told by a player that has actually seen this done in POTM in the past...so apparently it is doable....I don't know the validity of this...

Found these ones so far -

https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/prefab/creature/werecat

https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn1/hakpak/original-hakpak/lycanthrope-pcs-0

The first one is the generic NwN werecat. It doesn’t look good for a werepanther. The second one is a scripting system. I already looked at the vault. What we need is someone to make a new texture/model.

What were you looking for in the model? The texture? Is there a template of sorts non PotM dev submitters can look at if interested in helping?

The simplest solution is to create a texture to add to an existing model. You can use the texture of that werecat as a base. As I said I don't mind adding the template if someone can make the texture/model that goes with it; if someone with the skills to do it wants to take it on and send me the finished product we can add it in our next hak update then add the template afterwards.

Well I don’t do blender but I may be able to d*ck around in a few other things...
Tell us what sort of file formats you guys like: obj? Etc. and we’ll see what we can do/find.

Silas, while I appreciate the effort, if I have to walk you through the steps to do this, it won't save me much time. All the information you are looking for is easy to find with a quick Google search. If you are serious about this then I expect you to do your research and work then come back with a finished product.

Yeah, and I’m still working on it by the way! I played around with some werecats on the nwn toolset module builder and am going to next work out importing a new model. It’s gonna take some time to have the finished thing to show you guys since I’m starting from square zero.
I’m also gonna make a Von Kharkov and heck, kinda want to throw together a whole Valachan but first things first is start small and make one newish creature.

We don't generally accept unsolicited content from non-devs, so I wouldn't start building areas that we aren't going to use.

There are many different ways to contribute to this server, though if you'd like to build area's and stuff like that, feel free to make a Developper application if you feel like it!

Yeah ya know, I’ve got a lot to learn but Ravenloft is my favorite campaign setting and I... well, I want to contribute positively. Gotta wait for my ban/suspension to lift first though before I can play again but I can certainly use some of the time out to get a feel for using the toolset.

Any progress on this? Since we're about ready with the hak, unless the new model is ready now it won't make it in.

On my end no, DD and I were going to come back to this. It fell a little to the wayside. Apologies!
