TnT Risque Champions and the return of the Blade Dancers
4/29/11
New version of main file updates item variation to reduce conflicts with other mods. This mod will still conflict with any mod that alters the appearance of the Champion armors or adds a reward for arrival at the Gallows but should now be compatible with all other mods with cleaned item variations.
4/27/11
First of the addon texture packs - Shadow Dancer.
Replaces the female default Champion Armors with with an armor based on the nude mesh. Male characters will not be effected except for a change to the boots for all three classes and the gloves for one class. Note that your female character will wear the same outfit as underwear except for the boots and gloves. Again, male characters are unaffected.
Features:
The Return of the Blade Dancers! Beginning with the Crimson Dancer.
No more moving files in and out of override to make changes.
Player receives all four pieces of Champion Armor with custom stats for each class upon arrival at the Gallows. Each character class receives the appropriate champion weapon or weapons, again, with custom stats. Trust me, you will mow down the opposition. For those who think they are overpowered - turn up the difficulty - hard will be challenging, nightmare will still be a nightmare :)
Installation:
Extract the .7z file with 7zip to the location you keep mods or to desktop.
Add the entire TnT_Risque_Standard or TnT_Risque_Adult folder (depending on which version you download) to your override folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age 2\packages\core\override\
Usage: !!!IMPORTANT!!!!
The folder is set up for a Rogue character wearing the Crimson Dancer outfit. If you are starting a game with a mage or warrior you MUST follow these simple instructions BEFORE you start your game. Outfit appearance can be changed at any time. So, if you get tired of wearing one outfit just follow the instructions to change it.
CHANGING CHARACTER:
Go to your C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age 2\packages\core\override\ folder. There will be a number of .7z files that the game ignores. Three of them say "!Extract here for Mage", "Extract here for Rogue" and "Extract here for Warrior". Choose the one that matches the character class for the game you are about to start. Right click on it and choose "Extract Here". Say, "Yes to all" when asked if you want to overwrite. You are ready to start your game!
!!!IMPORTANT!!!
If you fail to follow the above procedure you will not get your gear added to inventory when you reach the Gallows.
Note: Just extract the appropriate character change .7z to go back and play a different savegame with a different character class. Once you have gotten the equipment added to inventory this is not really necessary since the savegame file has stored the information. But, I recommend making the change just to be safe and it takes about 10 seconds to accomplish.
CHANGING APPEARANCE:
All of the additional .7z files in the folder are different outfits you can wear. These can be changed at any time. The file name tells you what it is. For example, "Extract here for Crimson Dancer". Just pick the one you want, right click, extract here, yes to all (to overwrite) and you're done. When you restart your game the outfit will be changed.
Conflicts and Troubleshooting:
This mod will conflict with any mod that changes the rewards for arrival at the Gallows. There are a number of them out there. My files have been cleaned and renamed but there is no way that I know of to ensure no conflict for rewards given at the same trigger at this time. Any mod that changes the default nude armor may conflict resulting in unknown effects. Any mod that changes item variations may conflict causing mild flatulence. Pregnant women and adolescent males should avoid contact with this mod.
Addendum: Technically, a savegame anytime befor you fight the Ogre outside Lothering will work. If you have a save there or save there purposely in case you have a conflict or made a mistake, and, you don't get your gear at the Gallows, check your override and make any needed corrections. You should be able to load the game, fight the Ogre and get your gear if errors have been corrected.
Uninstallation:
Can't imagine why you would want to do this but...
Delete the TnT_Risque_Standard or TnT_Risque_Adult folder from your override folder.
Enjoy!
