Character Scaling

TuesdayParade

A plague of Neverewinter has always been a contrast of description to appearance. A very tall human standing next to a short human of the exact same height. I say no more!
I have seen it is possible to permanently scale character sizes. I hope it will help with immersion, and general aesthetics!

I am a fan of the 10% scale in increments of 5% up or down.

That's actually really a very cool idea.

This can maybe accomplished via a DM wand but I think it would have to be reapplied every reset (would require testing).

Spiffy got it working for a PC without issue, stayed over reset as well. Think we could mod the mirror conversation for it if we want.

Ok the wand seems to work on PCs but is a little buggy. The Wand works in increments of 10% either direction. The TEAM will discuss how to implement this for players and will update when a decision is reached.

@Echo A new feature added to the beamdog version is the scaling of pcs/npcs. Cormyr and the dalelands does this by an NPC dialog in their OOC room. You speak to the npc similar to a language teacher or tailor. You state your height and you're pc will be scaled to that height the remainder of the time they are on the server.

You wont need a wand. Just an NPC with the proper scripts and convo nodes.

We have the system set up and ready, just not available to the players yet :) We have had a wand function for a while for DMs, but we will use something else for players.

@Puffy Cool I really like that feature.

This should be implemented in module 7075

The head changer is now the Head and Height Changer in the starting area.

This is for new characters only.
We are NOT accepting height change requests for current characters.
