Building statues

Neverwinter Nights 1

While I was working on this project of mine, suddenly I came across The Hand tavern, in Myratma.

If someone needs some background about it…

So, I build this onSpawn function for a creature (just needs a couple of variables preset to work on)

#include "nw_i0_generic"
#include "x0_i0_anims"
#include "x0_i0_treasure"
#include "q_inc_switches"

void DoStatue (object oStatue)
{
    effect ePetrify = EffectPetrify();
    ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_PERMANENT, ePetrify, oStatue);
}

void main()
{
    object oTarget = OBJECT_SELF;
    string oTargetName = GetLocalString (oTarget, "statue_name");
    float  oTargetSize = GetLocalFloat  (oTarget, "statue_size");
    string sTargetPose = GetLocalString (oTarget, "statue_pose");
    int    iTargetPose = ANIMATION_LOOPING_PAUSE;
    if (sTargetPose == "bow")      { iTargetPose = ANIMATION_FIREFORGET_BOW; }
    if (sTargetPose == "taunt")    { iTargetPose = ANIMATION_FIREFORGET_TAUNT; }
    if (sTargetPose == "victory1") { iTargetPose = ANIMATION_FIREFORGET_VICTORY1; }
    if (sTargetPose == "victory2") { iTargetPose = ANIMATION_FIREFORGET_VICTORY2; }
    if (sTargetPose == "victory3") { iTargetPose = ANIMATION_FIREFORGET_VICTORY3; }

    SetName (oTarget, oTargetName);
    SetObjectVisualTransform(oTarget, OBJECT_VISUAL_TRANSFORM_SCALE, oTargetSize);

    SetAILevel (oTarget, AI_LEVEL_HIGH);

    ClearAllActions();

    DelayCommand (1.5, ActionPlayAnimation (iTargetPose,1.0,1.0));
    DelayCommand (2.0, DoStatue(oTarget));
    DelayCommand (2.2, SetAILevel (oTarget, AI_LEVEL_VERY_LOW));
    DelayCommand (2.3, SetPlotFlag (oTarget, TRUE));
}

And the result is…

…cause it wouldn’t be The Hand without The Hand.

It’s still a little messy, and I need to spawn the creature on the fly, because if a paint it in an area, and there are no PC in it, when you reach that area the creature has been petrified without having been animated (that’s why I played with the AI LEVELS).

Feel free to use it, imrpove it, whateverit.

Cool looking effect with the statue. Out of curiosity, what tileset is that?

That’s Sigil Stem Interior from ProjectQ

LOL - I should have known that.
