Chapter 3 progress

I'm almost done with my detailed plan for Chapter 3. Not sure how long it's going to be in comparison with the previous modules, but there is enough drama content to make it a separate module, so I don't think merging with the final module will occur.

As some of you may know, parts of Chapter 3 have been in existence for years now, because that was supposed to be Chapter 2 until I turned things around. That content is part of my first big Demonheart module. It will require lots of rewriting to make things neat again, and of course not all of the old content is usable, due to not being good enough or not fitting into the story anymore. Word count is unclear for now, since I decided to start a new module and import existing resources from the old one if required.

Brash and Sinallion BFF!

My first struggle with Chapter 3: tying all Chapter 2 endings together. You always come to the same town, but I have to write different conversations for different parties. I was most inspired to write the conversations you get if you have all the companions. :P

  1. Good to see that you've made a lot of progress on this so far!

    I've only recently gotten into Neverwinter Nights' modules and I've been enamoured with your story.

    Thanks for keeping us updated~

  2. Great to see you back! I trust whatever you end up making, and want to remind you to take your time and do what you want.

  3. Such excitement! Also, I get to say 'Feel totally inspired!' since I'm the type of player that literally -has- to have every character available in my party, as part of my adventure. >:D

  4. Great to have you back and in the creating spirit once again! I have most definitely enjoyed the last 2 chapters, and am looking forward to playing the 3rd when you have it ready for testing/release.

    Thanks once again for the update!

  6. I'm so excited for the next chapter! I loved what you've done so far, I really adore this module and its story and characters. Thank you so much for all the work that I know gets put into it!

  7. I just finished Chapter 2 and was enthralled. I'm looking forward immensely to the next chapter.

    I think the romance with Raze is exceptionally well-done. I like that my DH trusts Raze ...and he doesn't trust her. His arrogance is a great contrast to his masked uncertainty/skepticism that DH actually cares for him. To my mind, it's partly because he only really has one other person to compare her to -- his mother. He knows his mother loved him because his mother sacrificed her life for him. I'm not sure he would trust any less extreme display of devotion.

    TLDR: Squee!

  8. yeah! look forward to more DH, was hoping to see more of Thayn in this chapter....

  9. Looking forward to it.

    I have one request. :) Or suggestion if you will. We know DH is female and good looking, but being good looking is subjective. One thing that annoyed me a lot in ADwR and Gladiatrix was the constant references to how the character look specifically. Height, breast size, curves, etc. etc.

    As far as I have noticed, you have mostly avoided that, except for a few references to DH being tall. Now, that does not bother me, my DH is tall as well. But maybe others wants her short and plumb or short and willowy or what have we.

    Otherwise than that, Great work! :) Looking forward to part 3. And I'm afraid I'm one of those giving you more work. My DH killed sir Brash and enjoyed it thoroughly! ;)

    1. In ADWR it had something to do with Constitution. High Con meant big breasts and stuff. It got weird for me at one point, since one character said he had never seen such a skinny girl with such big breasts. It really annoyed me because I'm not that skinny... Was I playing a silicone princess? :S Gladiatrix I haven't played much, but I've noticed she has to be a tanned bikini girl.

      If I have made some references to the DH girl being tall, that was my revenge to those others, who kept telling me my character was short. :P But I was hoping it would be taken in a relative way. I guess she can't be extremely short. She's not short enough for Jarlan, who is also a human but with a dwarf model.

      Other than that, I try not to be specific. Though she's expected to have somewhat long hair too, since people keep pulling it. :/ I wanted to leave it out, but then there'd be no hair pulling in sexy times.

    2. Demonheart totally needs hair pulling :3

      Delete
    3. Yes! More hair pulling please, we love it :))

      Glad to see you're back, Lamb. It will be awesome to continue playing Demonheart. To be honest the effort you've put into the characters is so large that ADwR characters seem bland in comparison, although im a huge fan of both modules.

      Regarding ADwR and boob size - yes it was based on Constitution. Anything below 10 had no breasts, 10 - 13 - normal i think, and 14+ meant really big ones. I actually gave my girl a constitution of 9 on purpose because i was enjoying others telling her that she was too skinny. However i can see how it can get weird with anything of 14+.

    4. Uhm pritty sure it was charisma that affectet breasts size =)

      Delete
    5. No, it was constitution. I am not sure if charisma did anything but help with some checks. You had to have a base (don't remember the exact number) charisma to even begin playing the mod.

  10. So many thumbs-up for hair pulling!

  13. Hi Lamb, I'm still working on my mod atm and was wondering if it's alright to use some of your code/scripts. I will be sure to credit you in the mod.

  15. Modules like this, is the reason I still have NWN installed. Can't wait for the next chapters.

  16. Oh another interesting mod in the makings.
    Too bad about your dislike for lesbians but maybe it will be easier to enjoy the male romances that way.

    ReplyDelete

    1. I'm not sure why you think she has a dislike for lesbians - there's a lesbian romance option in the module, it's simply one that takes slightly longer to develop due to story circumstances.

      Delete
    2. How did you come to the conclusion she has a dislike for lesbians? I'm genuinely asking here.

      I know that the character Brash is pretty anti-lesbian (along with being a really horrible person) but I'm pretty sure the author doen't have the same opinions. I will admit I haven't played chapter 2 yet (broken gaming PC) but I didn't get the feeling that the author dislikes lesbians from chapter 0 and 1.

      You also kind of lost me at the last part. How would a "dislike for lesbians" in any way make male romances easier to enjoy??

      Delete
    3. I don't dislike lesbians myself, but writing hetero romances probably comes more naturally to me, though I'd like to make both kinds :/

      Delete
    4. Speaking of which, does NWN's sex support female on female? I've been thinking through all the mods I've played and I don't recall ever seeing female on female animations, and no, fading to black doesn't count.

      Delete
    5. There are no special animations for that. You can have a female doing the male's intimate animation, if that makes any sense. Other than that, you'd have to improvise :(
