A Simple tip for your NWN Quickbar

Post by XMEN Ravok99 »

I know that during a game, I hate taking the time to type. I also know that I have plenty of SHIFT/F(x) keys that I can use while 'walking'.<br><br>Here's the tip::<br><br>Right click on a SHIFT/F(#) Quickbar Item, and go to the top of the radial. Then it will ask for a Label. For this tip, we'll use the label, "Enemies". Then it will ask for a Command.<br>Type:<br><br>/p Hold. There are foes nearby.<br><br><br>Then, since my character is a scout, I will 'walk' around and once I see a foe, use the F(1) key and my character will say the following.<br><br>[Party] Hold. There are foes nearby.<br><br>I plan to have a few things loaded for my Monk/Ranger Scout. One is that I will scan the area for traps. Another that I am setting a trap, move ahead. And so on.<br><br>The benefit of doing this is that you have quick access to your most common commands. That you won't accidentally 'Shout' them. That no one but your party will see them displayed. AND the bonus is that you can use them to set the mood of your character more easily - allowing your own custom versions of how you speak and interact.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br> <p>"Patience is a virtue ... for other people." -Ravok</p><i></i>

Yup. I had a "Traps, watch out!" early on with Vera, but no one (*looks over at Atheist*) ever listened. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><center><table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=5><td><img border="0" src="http://www.xmenclan.org/avatars/t2red.g ... ><td><font size=5>RedSirus<a href=mailto:redsirus@dragontalonmercs.com>@</a></font><br><br><a target=_top href=http://www.dragontalonmercs.com>Dragon Talon Mercenary</a> > <a target=_top href=http://server2.ezboard.com/bdragontalon ... ><br><font size=2><a target=_top href=http://pub18.ezboard.com/bdtmonlinecommunity>DTM Community</a> > <a target=_top href=http://pub18.ezboard.com/fdtmonlinecomm ... s>RedSirus' Reviews</a></font><br><br><a target=_top href=http://www.xmenclan.org>Brainwashed Fishmonger</a> > <a target=_top href=http://pub3.ezboard.com/bxmenclan>Forum ... </p><i></i>
