Cave of Songs, Honor Among Thieves, Prophet: Baldecaran's Neverwinter Nights Modules


Baldecaran's Big Three


Cave of Songs, Honor Among Thieves and Prophet are Baldecaran's NWN modules for BioWare's cRPG Definition of 2002, Neverwinter Nights 1.

In the pantheon of NWN modules, Baldecaran's Big Three are second only to Swordflight. However, it's an apples to oranges comparison, so depending on what you like, Baldecaran's modules can be held as the greatest ever on NWN.

Ok, so you want to play Baldecaran's modules but where do you download them from and how do you install them? Well, this post should help newbies who have never installed a NWN module before.

First things first, make sure your game is patched to 1.69. Even if it's the GoG version I would run this to be sure, as some people have had problems getting community content to work, which the patch seemed to fix each time. So, patch your game!

In addition I suggest you completely back up your pristine Neverwinter Nights install to somewhere safe before you starting messing around with it, just in case you stuff something up. You will also need 7-Zip to extract the zip, rar, 7z and exe archives, so grab it here if you don't already have it. Done that? Ok...

Cave of Songs




You may like to try out two of Baldecaran's earlier modules, first: The Cave of Songs & Honor Among Thieves. In fact, I urge you to play these before the Prophet series and use the same character if you like. They are great modules in their own right. The Cave of Songs is a wonderful mod to ease new players into NWN and the Runelands custom campaign setting, and Honor Among Thieves is the best rogue-based module on the NWN platform.

Download this archive (cave_of_songs.rar)

Extract the archive, open the_cave_of_songs folder and copy The Cave of Songs.mod to your NWN modules folder. That's it; installation doesn't get any easier than that!

Honor Among Thieves




Download this archive (honor_among_thieves.rar)

Extract the archive, open the honor_among_thieves folder and copy Honor Among Thieves.mod to your NWN modules folder, and the pc-hat.hak to your NWN hak folder. That's all there is to it!

Prophet




The Prophet series consists of a Prologue and three Chapters:

Download this archive (prophet_prologue_v2.0.zip) and the readme.

Download this archive (prophet_chapter_1_v2.0.zip) and the readme.

Download this archive (prophet_chapter_2_v1.2.zip) and the readme.

Download this archive (prophet_3.7z) and the readme.

Downloaded them? Ok, use 7-zip to extract these four archives somewhere temporary (ie, NOT in your NWN installation folder); the process may take a lil' while because of all the content.

Done that? Ok, lets go through these one at a time.

First, open the prophet_prologue_v2.0e folder and copy the Prophet - Prologue - It cannot be denied.mod to your NWN modules folder (normally located in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\NeverwinterNights\NWN).

Second, open the prophet_chapter_1_v2.0 folder and copy the Prophet - Chapter I - By the Will of Kings and Mortals.mod to your NWN modules folder.

Third, open the prophet_chapter_2_v1.2 folder and copy the Prophet - Chapter II - The Century of Sorrow.mod to your NWN modules folder.

Fourth and last, open the prophet_3 folder and copy the Prophet - Chapter III - That Which is Destined.mod to your NWN modules folder. There is also a hak file in here: copy the prophet3.hak to your NWN haks folder.

Now, lets download and install the other content required by the Prophet series.

cep_v1x.exe

cep_2_60_full_0

prophetmusic.zip, prophet0.zip, prophet1.zip, prophet2.zip

Use 7-Zip to extract these archives (including the exe) somewhere temporary; the process may take a lil' while because of all the content.

Done that? Ok, lets go through these one at a time.

Open cep_2_60_full_0 folder and copy all hak files your NWN hak folder. Now, navigate to the tlk folder and copy all tlk files to your NWN tlk folder. If you don't have one, create it.

Now, open the prophet0, prophet1 and prophet2 folders and copy the prophet0.hak, prophet1.hak and prophet2.hak files to your NWN hak folder (we already copied prophet3.hak before).
Finally, open the prophetmusic folder and copy the 14 bmu files to your NWN music folder.

The Prophet series is now fully installed.

Prologue & Chapter 1 require the haks found in CEP v1.1 as well as cep.tlk from that archive.

Whereas Chapters 2 and 3 require the haks and tlks found in CEP v2.60.
