Editing PCs in-game

[Aradan Kir]

Looking for a way to edit PC details in-game, which permanently changes their servervault file with the new details.

I've looked briefly at the Leto plugin, but this seems to require the PC to be booted in order to write the file details. I've also looked at nwnx_funcs, which has some very useful functions, but I'm not sure it will do everything I'd ideally like.

If it's possibly, I'd like to be able to edit things like:

~ Name
~ Skin colour
~ Head type (ie the shape of it)
~ Tattoos
~ Description
~ Wings / Tail
~ Deity
~ Race
~ Gender
~ Voiceset

ie ... basically pretty much everything you can do when you first create a PC. All of the above being editable isn't essential, but the more the better!

If anyone has any suggestions for where to start, or a module that has this sort of thing in that I can "borrow" from and adapt as needed - that'd be much appreciated!

Thanks

Ok, so looks like nwnx_funcs is the way to go with this, coupled with some default built-in things.

Oh and re "shape" i meant merely the head type - you know, like bearded, with a hat on, orc head etc. I have found some scripts which do some of these things, but wondered if there was an all-inclusive system someone had already put together. No need to reinvent the wheel if some kind soul has already gone to the time and trouble for everyone!

NWNX Names is probably not what is wanted here - that is for dynamically changing PC names based on the viewer (it is also linux server only atm)

Letoscript or possibly NWNX_funcs can be used to change the bic, but that also requires the Player be booted from the server so the changes can be made.

Letoscript or (if you have Linux) nwnx_ruby with nwn-lib are your only option for some of those. Names must be done like that - the nwnx_names plugin is only temporary. While nwnx_funcs does have a SetGender function, we tried that for an april fool's joke and discovered that people had to relog for it to take effect.

If you need someone to relog, use PortalPC, not BootPC. It has the same effect (leave and rejoin) but the player doesn't have to rejoin manually.

Most of this can be done in-game via scripting. Check out the Appearance Modder (Originally by Scarface?) used in Realms of Netheria (Im currently hosting this under ACTION category)

I'd be happy to share the scripts/convos with you if you contact me with an e-mail address.

Some of the other changes you want to do may require use of the Leto plugin or Names plugin, as mentioned by earlier responders.

PS - The Appearance modder is through the portal room, off to one side of the Legendary Portal. Look for the purple floor arrows.
