Neverwinter Nights' most popular collection of add-ons - the Community Expansion Pack (or CEP for short) - is just about ready to get its second major release. More than two years after the original CEP came out, fans of BioWare's RPG are about to discover the new NWN CEP v2, which includes rideable horses, arcane and emitter based shields, hundreds of new monsters and creatures, thousands of armour and weapon components, and much more.
"Far from being a one person effort, the CEP is a collection of some of the best creative content to enhance your Neverwinter Nights experience as a player and as an adventure builder. CEP's impact on NWN cannot be understated - it is a big reason why this game is so popular. While the CEP team has changed and morphed over the years, the core idea of delivering all this content to the avid fan is still the same. With the release of CEP v2 we see even more exceptional quality community content crammed into an easy to install package." The BioWare website is now hosting an interview with CEP Project Overlord and PR Mastermind, Kephisto, who talks about what we can expect in CEP v2. Rideable horses; backpacks, satchels, and sword scabbards that players can wear; arcane and emitter based shields; hundreds of new monsters and creatures; and over a thousand items ranging from gothic furniture to room sized piles of gold to represent a dragon's horde - they're all in there! And so are plenty of other novelties, which you can read about in said interview.
The Neverwinter Nights CEP v2 will be available for download shortly on IGN's NVN Vault. Just make sure that you get CEP v2 (once it's up), not the previous versions, such as v1.53.
