How to set level cap to 40?

[äää]

I'd like to test what kind of character builds I could do if level cap was 40 but I'm unable to set it up.

I tried to do it with the launcher provided on the following page: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/159/index/8218848/1#8685312
Apparently it uses the fix made by Arpl: http://www.nwnx.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1814
I tried to test it in MotB after setting its level cap to 40 and xp cap to 780000 but it didn't work.

Please help.

Try logging into dungeoneternal2 in multiplayer under action.

The plugin works for the PW, and it was set up with the launcher. The launcher does not yet configure the ini files until the next release, so you have to manually edit those files to make it work. You probably have to make the paths in those ini files match with your server directory, if they are not configured right it can cause the game to fail to launch. ( I will have that working on the next update of the launcher ).

Is it possible to give XP bugfix the ability to trigger AoO attacks by script or manage HIPS and fix the rogue Evade ability? (forgot that ability's name <_<)

That would be a big boon to PW development work

Very cool you could do that, but I have no clue how it works.

Would need much more specific information about what would need to be done here. (And if someone has done so for NWN1, a pointer to that implementation may be helpful.)

Ok, I was able to make it work. But I have another problem: I made a copy of the "uninvited quests" module to make it my character building module. I made it add some xp but xp is capped at 250k xp or so for the module. How can I make the cap higher? Campaign editor allows changing of level cap and xp cap for campaigns but not for individual modules.

EDIT: The level cap seems to be capped at 39 for ECL +1 races, 38 for ECL +2 races and so on.

@Skywing

Pain made a Launcher and NWNX / xp_bugfix update that does this. If you guys could team up who knows what's possible with this game!

[Skywing]

Some settings, if I remember, can only be controlled by linking a campaign to a module. This is relatively easy however and works fine for multiplayer PW modules, so can you just do that and call it done?

I am unaware of anyone else making xp_bugfix contributions. While contributions are certainly welcome, I haven't heard of anyone working on any such things.

Here is where he anncounced it on the Bioware social forums:

xp_fix is not xp_bugfix, it's separate, and it's provided when you download the copy of never launcher i provided. It works with skywings work, as everything does. My choice of name was mainly aimed at my hope to integrate the features from xp_fix from NWN1 at some point. Everything about it will work just fine with everything skywing is doing, and i don't think there is a lot of overlap.

Mostly it's packaging up of what arpl sent me but never got working as a real plugin and getting it working, and i am really just learning this stuff. Most of what i did was inserting arpl's code into a plugin template, and working some of those features into my CSL library. I also allow ini settings to turn some of the features on and off. I am hoping that i can create some new things entirely my own eventually.

I am mainly focused on developing Never Launcher which provides ease of use ( wizard interfaces ) to complex configuration files that come with NWNx and the game itself, hopefully enough so that more people can take advantage of what it has to offer, and installers which do the work for those users to ensure everything is positioned correctly.

Note that xp_fix is in the nwnx4 folder that is downloaded above, as the latest version of everything skywing has done when i zipped that version up. All you have to do is take the xp_fix.dll and drop it into your nwnx folder and you have everything listed above.

Pain: Is it possible to make a creature immune from AoO's or to make him not broadcast them without needing to set him to plot? The Cutscene function that can do this only works if the creature is set to plot mode which kind of defeats the purpose for custom feats.
And where can we find the variables and code needed to control the functions in xp_fix? I've proposed adding this on the Sword Coast Chronicles - it would make a lot of new custom feats possible

Also: XP_fix does not automatically remove the level cap does it? You still need to do this in the campagin settings? I'd hate it if level 30 players suddenly got wrecked characters. (just checking to be sure)
