Druid dragonshape couple issues

Post by Rico_scorpion »

Hi,

1- [Maybe that's just me...?]: When the green dragonbreath is used, the vfx is made of "white squares" (missing texture). Note that the savage beasts in the desert and the lizard boss in the desert have similar issues (white and pink squares respectively). It might be my shader that is broken but I haven't fiddled with anything since basic NWN installation. Someone to back me up would be appreciated.

2- When dragonbreath is used, if the animal companion is in the aoe, the animal companion gets crazy and promptly humiliates you/maw you down (even if it is unaffected by it), turning that cool flavorful ability useless if you plan on using your animal companion. Basically same situation as with firewall (the spell).

3- Due to its size, countless collision issues making the use of the dragonshape more than impractical, it makes it sometimes even useless. Note that I'm not making a surprised pikachu face, i was expecting that much, but maybe something can be done to address this? Alternatively, giving infinite uses of it (instead of 3) to compensate. You sometimes need to transform down and back up several times per minute depending on the dungeon you're in, it's that problematic. Also, given that you guys managed to dissociate collision box from size (shadow from shadowdancer, illusion from the epic feat, etc), maybe give that treatment to dragonshape? Yes that would produce lots of clipping but that would be for the best.

Cheers.
