Larian asked for modders to go to Belgium to discuss the tool. What became of it?

No really. I had no idea. So I guess their valuable feedback was taken into account?

They used the editor for a week and created some small mods in that period. They're under NDA, so they can't discuss the details. However, having them over definitely helped improve the tool and overall modding flow. Maybe even some new scripting APIs will come out of it.

That's the answer I was looking for. Specifically, I am hoping user input allowed the editor to be more user-friendly.

I'm hoping the wall editor works better than it did in the first game.

That was the only thing I found somewhat annoying, especially the roofs.
Still a great concept though.

Is the game shipped with the modding tools or we have to download them from somewhere? And will they be available from day one?

I wonder if it is possible to change how races and origins work so their racial skill, racial power, and origin power become selectable by the player.

Thanks for the reply, Windemere. New to the forums, but very excited to hear that there are other veteran NWN modders here.


I just learned about this game and planned modding tool, and came to check it out. As another veteran NWN modder, I too find it intriguing and would like to learn more.

With the Modding tools being delayed, has anyone found any semblance of a developer console as of yet? It was mentioned in this thread multiple times, but no word of it since.

There will be a console, but I believe it will come with the editor. Editor will probably be released today or tomorrow.

We can already download the tools from steam in Library-Tools.

With the editor out, anyone got news on console commands?

With a bit of digging answered my own question.

To activate console commands both for the base game and the editor - navigate to your Divinity Engine2 Directory, and find ReCon.exe. This is a remote utility for entering console commands. The commands can be found here:
https://docs.larian.game/Command_list

On this page there is a broken link to commands relating to givetreasure, as seen here: http://fileserver-dmz/mediawiki/index.php/Give_armor_and_skills

Will be testing them now, I'll report back with anything interesting.

Edit: My bad folks, it looks like ReCon.exe was never meant to work with the SP, and the wiki page has changed to specify as such.

Is there any word on when Plug-in API for Editor/Modding will be released for expanding Editor/Modding capability?

For starter, I am interested in making a script engine that run on CoreCLR so we could use C# for scripting our mods. At least this way, we can take advantage of Object Oriented Programming, Intellisense Support in Visual Studio and other IDE, and so forth.
