Good day to all Neverwinter Nights adventurers!

Beamdog is happy to announce that after several years of hard work, Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition models of player characters and their equipment (armor, weapons and shields) have finally been remade! Thank you kindly for your patience and support over these years!♥️

Attention: using remade models on lower-end machines can lead to potential problems with the game performance.

This is why we’ve decided to provide a separate link for all our players to download The HD Models & Textures Pack for Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition (4.1 gb). This pack includes updated models of weapons and shields previously released as the Steam Workshop content.

New models now support normal and spec information. All of these pieces can be further modded by the community, which is in line with the base game setup.

Happy 19th anniversary to Neverwinter Nights!!!!

PS: I haven't test it because I don't own the Enhance Edition yet, so I would appreciate some confirmation that works correctly with this version. Accordingly to one dev "it should work without any problems".

EDIT: Make the same post earlier but I writed the wrong title.

Nice one, thanks. I wonder why it's not some sort of free DLC?

Thanks for the info!

Maybe to make it available for everyone? We'll never know for sure.

Developer commented on the Steam thread and said the following when asked that question -

"It's not an optional DLC via Steam because this is still WIP, and using the updated models can lead to performance issues on those PCs that are low-end but can run basic NWN:EE just fine."

Sounds like once it's fully finished then it'll be added as a free DLC for people.
