Infinite Dungeons: I tired of opening the Doors

Every time you move to another part of the dungeon - all of the doors locked and you have to open it again and again and again.

So I decided to write a short script open_all_doors similar to that succubus at Wailing Death campaign chapter 3 at the tomb. So all you need is to add that compiled open_all_doors.ncs file to your override folder and then invoke it within the game like

DebugMode 1
dm_runscript open_all_doors
DebugMode 0

P.S. I am also using auto hot key 2.0 to assign that command to something like ALT + o and woula - all of the doors are opened (not the ones which you haven't unlocked with the skill yet)

Should be like an in-game staff of the Halaster or something at the very beginning. Too annoying.

An unexpected Jay visitor

What should I give to this lil guy? It ate some blueberries a bit, rejected the walnuts and then flew away. I guess it's a neighbor's fledging they raised and recently released. I guess we will occasionally meet with him / her at the balcony from now on from time to time. Or just ignore and let it be? I recorded it this morning. It also scratches its beak from time to time over some objects, why?

Most epic spell ever

Just stop time and have a rest. Mephisto will wait!

P.S. I've been playing NWN since 00s and didn't know that if one stops the time AND have a rest while spell is active - one will restore all slots immediately after "interruption". Like having a good nap til the rest of the world wait - true epic.

What do you think fits best here?

I am redesigning the neck joint at my dragon MOC to achieve better head stability. I need your opinion what would fill that little gap marked with arrow better?

Black dragon wings restyling

Ok, dear Lego DND fellas, I need your advice.

I've posted recently my MOC with black dragon here, but I have a question about wings.

Before, the two upper feathers had only one hinge, but since they were too large, it seemed a bit clunky to me. So, I am thinking of adding one more hinge clip for each feather in order to shape the wings in a more "natural" way.

What do you think about it? I've put current implementation at the end of gallery to compare.

Thanks!

SOU - Interlude, Power Stone puzzle: 1 or 3 ruby?

I played that module zillion of times since 2004. But this time I decided to drill down why at the one of the columns to the right there was a special accent at 3 rubies.

After digging the special spell designed for the power stone (item x0_powerstone, spell x0_s3_pstone) If finally found the difference. And its (surprisingly) bugged.

In Defensive urn difference is clear and straightforward: Spell mantle (1 ruby) vs. Greater spell mantle (3 rubies) or 12.5 or 16.5 levels of absorption in average accordingly.

But in Offensive urn there was initially a very good idea. Special script DoStorm invokes fire arrows with 10d6 fire damage for every enemy in colossal range. Initially Yaron intended to make only 1 arrow for 1 ruby and 10 arrows for 3 rubies, but with ability to "accumulate" multiple ones to first enemy if total count of enemies less than 10. In other words, it was a boss-killer stone that could have damaged 100d6 single target (350 damage of fire damage in average). But he didn't implemented it and so there is NO difference between 1 or 3 rubies in Offensive urn unfortunately.

Maybe one day we will get the fix of it.

P.S.

If you play the SoU from 1 level, you can find only 3 rubies, and one of them could be obtained from the Sphinx nearby, however, one should have quite good persuade skill, since difficulty class is Hard (your pers. skill + d20 >= 33 (or 23 if one can charm that creature)) which is quite tricky for a greater spell mantle in my opinion. BUT it could have worthed it in case of original idea of 100d6 damage (probably the highest one-hit damage in original trilogy).

P.P.S you can't charm Sphinx due to a bug in a script, it checks presence of charming spell on main character instead of sphinx :\ so only with persuasion at least 13 one can achieve that.

What do you think?

Ancient Black Dragon [OC]

This ancient black dragon was inspired by Lyrauroth - one of the most feared black dragons of the northern Realms — a great wyrm who terrorized Thar, destroyed the ogre capital of Tharniir, and shattered an entire orcish kingdom single-handedly. He spent centuries in slumber beneath the steppes, only to be awoken by the Cult of the Dragon. "Refused dracolichhood with contempt. He didn't need it."

This is my LEGO MOC interpretation of him. Built the horns to capture that ancient, jagged great wyrm energy. Took a few months to get the proportions right.

Iyrauroth — Great Wyrm Black Dragon (homebrew stats) STR 37 | DEX 10 | CON 27 | INT 20 | WIS 21 | CHA 20 AC 42 | HP 740 | Spell Resistance 28 Immunities: Acid, Paralysis, Mind-Affecting, Sneak Attack

P.S. The brave adventurer in the corner would like to know his survival chances. Then again, a natural 20 happens sometimes... right?

Finally finished my black dragon MOC after months of building

PS: just noticed one of these horn pieces appear in the new Sagrada set 👀 Coincidence? He thinks not.

Lyrauroth Adult Black Dragon

I've started my first MOC early February 26. I never did it before, I just wanted some sort of hybrid between red dragon from Dungeon and Dragons set (but it could not stand) and Medieval Dragon (which had cool brick-only wings)

Inspired by nwn1 shape of the Lyrauroth

A lego-cosplayed Lyrauroth from Tyrrants of the Moonsea

So the original inspiration was at one of the screenshots attached, I've started the design of it around 3 months ago. Never did a MOC before, but it was fun.

What do you think?

I've started my first MOC early February 26. I never did it before, I just wanted some sort of hybrid between red dragon from Dungeon and Dragons set (but it could not stand) and Medieval Dragon (which had cool brick-only wings)

So I did that. There were a lot of pitfalls, it still has some balance issues, but its head now uses greater ball joint rather than smaller one LEGO used at Red Dragon tale. Plus, every paw has adjustable finger, thus one can gaze the situation of taking a Wolfpack Beastmaster's wolf in it too.
