A tribute to Gary Gygax (http://nwn.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=471391&post=4006977&forum=42&highlight=)
I got to meet Mr. Gygax at GenCon in the year before we released NWN. When I talked to him about it, he commented that he had heard that Neverwinter Nights on the computer could turn out to be "electronic crack" http://forums.bioware.com/_commonext/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif He was smiling at the time, so I firmly believe that he was paying a compliment. A very nice fellow.

Very very impressive work and it certainly deserves some attention. You should punch Jay to give this a BioWare Wednesday showcase item some time!

Seeking futuristic fileset for DOOM module (http://nwn.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=470678&post=4006997&forum=48&highlight=)
<hr />www.20mm.net (http://www.20mm.net) is the best place to start looking, however IMHO there is the pretty large flaw that Doom is Real-Time skill-based, but NWN is turn-based and character based. So just trying to do doom in the NWN engine wont work. Plus there is the character class stucture of D&D to think about (why would you be anything other than a cleric? especially at low levels). Personally, Id say that the visual differences are the least of the problems with a "doom module".
I dont mean this is any sort of negative way, I just wanted to make sure you had thought through some of the problems youll have before you start investing a lot of time/effort in it!<hr />I guess you meant d20mm.net http://forums.bioware.com/_commonext/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif
