That is, indeed, impressive. I always felt like I was walking uphill from the docks

And I've always thought adventures and quests started from lighthouses were the best, so kudos on that as well!!

That.. looks.. so.. overwhelming! Man, I get amazed by the graphics in nwn2 over and over again - even though I have the toolset myself.

Looks very nice driller, BSK will surely have as great succes (if not more..) in nwn2, as it had in nwn1.

The big tree got an upgrade. It is now a lighthouse. NOW those evil druids will be angry!!

The bad news is that one area is about the same file size as the entire Blackstone module.

One thing for sure is, I will not be shy about using prefabs.
I bet that quality prefabs will be in high demand for NWN2.

Holy peach, than how much would BSK remade be? 20GBs?

BTW guys, don't you think that BSK should be recreated differently? i mean retain certain features but give it a different look and feel.

Just my 2 cents.

@Driller, please don't finish BSK before Xmas as i won't have NWN2 until than. [-o<

Judicious use of the world map function will need to be made to minimize the number of exterior areas. That should help conserve memory.

How is anyone expected to host a module when a single area is that large of a file size?
