So,I’ve made a couple of Neverwinter Nights 2 UI mods utilizing their xml system.
Each one I’ve written will be displayed both here and on nwvault. Sometimes nwvault takes a day or so to post new submissions,so I will host the files on this server until nwvault approves my submission. Basically,to stay on top of all my NWN2 UI mods,bookmark this page. I’ll also be taking requests on this page,so if you have any ideas,let me know by posting a comment below.
My Neverwinter Nights 2 UI Mods:
Draggable Partybars (used to be Left Side Partbar)
Good stuff! Personally,I’d *love* smaller portrait pics,they look bloated to me.
Sure,I can work on that.
I’ve added your UI blog to my Nwn2 tweaks site page.

DEFINITELY would love a “Tiny Portraits”mod!
Again,AWESOME work Slate!
I love the miltirow hotbar.
Do you think it would be possible to turn the hotbar into columns instead of rows? Got a wide screen monitor so I got a lot more space to store it if I could move it to one side …
Anyway,thanks for the wonderful mods …
Technically,yes,they can be made vertical. However,I don’t think it is a good idea at this point in time. You would lose ALL of the shortcut keys available to you,except for the ones at the top (which would be only 2 in a 2-column layout).
If people REALLY want it,I can whip one up tomorrow.
Ah,so a vertical bar would technicaly still be horisontal with fewer colums and more rows while the hotkeys would still bind to the top row?
I was hoping for a way to flip it so the first row would become the first column instead,keeping the hotkeys working …Well,if it cant be done it cant be done …
If you got the time over you could make a column version anyway,might want to try it out just for fun …
I did make a vertical one this morning. I was sorta wrong about how it works. Anyways,you can see it here soon enough –had to leave this morning before I posted it here,however its awaiting approval on nwvault.
Hi,
Dragable Party Bar Left does not work on 1024×768 NWN v1.02. Looking at the Dragable Right Party Bar,there is no cross handle visible on the Dragable Left Party Bar. Maybe it is off screen? Using same .tga for both Right and Left Party Bars?

Hey slate,I’ve been doing a little bit of UI modding,mainly on the party health bars. I just made a mod called slimhealth that makes the health bars significantly thinner. I’ve also done a portrait resize,but haven’t released it yet. I was wonder if I could incorporate your draggable bars into the XML file I am going to release with your permission and giving you credit. You can e-mail me back.
niche:i’ve fixed that in the latest version. Please redownload.

Ah,didn’t see ibjodaddy‘s post here on the front page…hope you two collaborate as this would be a fantastic change combining the two mods!
Yes,I too would really like smaller portrait pics.
Is it possible to make a mod that changes the control scheme to be similar to temple of elemental evil? I hate the follow system and having to click on each character portrait to use them. I want total control at all times.
The most annoying thing for me is adding special abilities to the hotbar. They can’t be added from the
rightclick menu,as it doesnt seem to ‘pick-up’the icons. So this means i have to check through all my
abilities on the character page to find the ones which are activated abilities. Fixing this (allow drag’n drop
from the rightclick menu) would also meen we could put emotes in the hotbar.
I would love more than anything for this game to have an RTS version of the controls,drawing boxes around chars to select them ect,I can’t bring my self to play this great game because of it’s controls. BG had perfect controls!
I love your mods,they are helping me get through this game. But I agree with a few above that the best possible mod to have would be a BG style control scheme.
Baldur’s Gate gave me the type of control that I want in NWN2,especially now that the henchmen’s AI has gone on the fritz for me,making the game near impossible to play easially.
I would love to see a progress bar that could track a local int on the PC. So we can have “Mana”Bars “Rage”bars ect. Is this something you can cook up?
Please let me know.
Hey Slate! Thanks for your UI-mods.
I’ve now encountered a problem,my chat-box in game has been placed outside the screen so I can’t read what happens in it. I use 1280×1024 res.
When I change the res to anything else it’s all normal. Could I reset the placement of the box somehow or is there a UI mod that could help me?
Thanks in advance.
Tack!
I have to agree with Jason
You,sir,are a genius!
Thank you!
this is prolly something stupid simple but id rly like a way to increase the level cap for the campaign
as in leave everything exactly the same just boost the lvl cap to 40 or 50
thx for anything
hi I just want to know if it is possible for me to insert textbox in the game (the player can type into the textbox and then the value of the textbox will be read by a script). Thanks
Hi Mario. Unfortunately,I don’t believe there is any way to do that. I haven’t looked at the game in a while,but I don’t think they had any plans for that sort of customized interactivity within their customizable GUI.
