SimpleFix NWN2

Some NWN2 spell effects not only look and sound awful [1] but also adversely affect framerate. SimpleFix is an ongoing series of mods that seeks to address such issues; however, they may cause issues of their own and there is some "artistic license" going on. That said, in the vast majority of cases these are better than vanilla.

• Magic Missile (sounds Space Invader-ish but at least you see all missiles fired simultaneously)
• Mage Armor
• Shield Spells
• Gate
• Visage Spells
• Instant Death Spells (has a rule change)
• Meteor Swarm
• Blade Barrier
• Fire Elemental
• Skin Spells
• Cleric Buffs Vol. 1 (has a rule change)
• Cleric Buffs Vol. 2
• Cleric AoEs
• Disintegrate
• Warlock Buffs

[1] Several examples of sounds that are way too loud and drown out the other sounds too much:

• Call Lightning/Chain Lightning (sfx_hitarea_Electricity.wav)
• Acid Fog (sfx_linger_Acid.wav)
• Evard's Black Tentacles (sfx_linger_ChililngTentacles.wav [typo is correct])
• Web (sfx_linger_web.wav)
• Blade Barrier (sfx_linger_blades.wav)
• Creeping Doom (?wav)
• Entangle (sfx_linger_Entangle.wav)

Surprisingly, these have never been collectively fixed in a public mod. Quick and dirty solution: simply create blank text files, rename them to the filenames given above (including the file extension), and throw them into your override. In this way, you can mute any sound that you dislike.

I replaced sfx_linger_web with sfx_linger_SpikeGrowth (similar sound that is much more subtle). Of course, you could also replace the sounds with better ones from other games.

A few more I muted: 

• sfx_hitarea_Sonic.wav
• sfx_hit_Electricity.WAV
• sfx_hitarea_Cold.wav
• sfx_hit_Cold.wav
• sfx_hitarea_Acid.wav
• sfx_hitarea_Magic.wav
• sfx_hitarea_Fire.wav

• SimpleFix: Cleaving : Triggers the in-combat cleave animation. Still nowhere near as good as the NWN version, but it's better than vanilla. See also: Improved Cleave and AOO Animations aka Cute Cleaves.
• OverCritical, & Epic Critical Hits From Planescape: Torment: Crit hits are accompanied by the PS:T Boom! effect. There is also screen-shake and gibs (aka "chunks"). See also: Exploding Heads.
• Spellcasting Chants from Baldur's Gate (MotB version)
• Complete Craftsman MotB-SoZ Patch & Rebalance [Reboot]: A re-release of the original CC mod that upgraded crafting in NWN2.
• Fun Mode: Editing the OC Companions: Lets you edit companions as you see fit.

Electron Toolset, NWN2

The toolset is loaded from the root installation folder: NWN2ToolsetLauncher.exe. Note that the toolset can take quite a while to load.

Disable the Autosave in NWN2 Toolset

For curious people who are just taking a peek into a module, trying to work something out, probably the first thing you should do, before you load any modules up and starting poking around, is disable the Autosave function. 

To do that, go to View → Options, click on General, and change the Autosave dropdown to False.

If you completely muck the toolset up and need to restore it to its default state, quit out, navigate to this folder: C:\Users\..\AppData\Local\NWN2 Toolset

... and delete its contents. Now, when you reload the toolset should be restored to their default state.

The Obsidian modules are located in the modules folder in the root installation folder of NWN2 (not the My Docs folder). They are as follows:
