I'm surprised you guys didn't use this for Sigil. Or at least it'd make a great Hive Ward set...

I seem to recall we discussed them at some point, can't recall what concluded of that though...

looks great yes, though i wonder if the buildings ain't a bit too much deformed in shape for the scod's standard, as i saw so far.
yet anyway, new hive revamp? :D

CODI did some outstanding work on Planescape content for nwn1 as well. I spent months working on a nwn1 version of Sigil using the map that came with the boxed set as a template (got the entire bottom half done with over 30 areas...was HUGE, and only half done).

I used various tilesets to represent each ward:

Market/Guildhall/Clerk's Wards: Normal tileset.
Lady's Ward: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Hakpaks.Detail&id=5236
Lower Ward: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Hakpaks.Detail&id=3796
Hive Ward: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Hakpaks.Detail&id=6222

It's a shame it never got finished and opened.

This was considered; however it was determined (this is two major updates ago, when Lemonade and I were combing through potential content) that the buildings simply didn't measure up resolution-wise to existing and other custom content; it is a conversion of NWN1 tiles, after all. Some of the placeables from this pack did find their way in, however.

The issue really becomes more noticable when compared to NWN2 sets from RWS, the City HAK, and others which are of a higher quality than OC/MotB/SoZ placeables. Considering that unpacked, this HAK's contents are in excess of 100MB, it just didn't seem worth it.
