Reskinning fun

Well I decided to jump in and create a new model by reskinning an existing one. It was fun and challenging to figure out.

Here is what I came up with. Still working on finding out where to put it in a 2da as not to upset the CEP apple cart.

edit: also trying to figure out Normal and Spectacular Maps. Oh and I call it a "Madotaur".

    In the CEP appearance.2da, the unused lines explicitly say whether they are reserved for CEP or User content. You can use any of the latter. Copy an existing minotaur line as a template, paste to your chosen line (but don't change the line number) then change the appearance name & model name.

    @Proleric Thanks, I will try that next.

    Just to see what this monster looked like in game. I used the override option. Here is a looksie.

    Ok here is a pic of the madotaur and the minotaur together using the CEP.

    I will try and get a CEP top hak and a non cep hak uploaded to the vault when I figure out how to do it. Hopefully tomorrow.

    Am still working on figuring out Normal and Spectacular maps.

    Looks like he's having a Porterhouse Blue... nice work!

    You are right. He is a little blue. But from the first picture I thought it would be more black than blue, but alas the shaders must be doing something. So here is a Black and Blue.

    Just kidding... blue was cool... though black is nice, too...

    Oh I know you were kidding. But from the first pic that I posted viewed in NWNExplorer. I honestly thought it would look closer to black w/blue chest highlights. I am working on getting it to the way I want it to look.

    Ok, here is all three, "blue", "black" and "black and blue (work in progress)"
