NWN Quick Chat Reference

Post by Taoen7 » Fri Mar 02, 2018 11:15 pm

I was looking all over for this and thought that maybe the Arelith module removed it somehow. Its so basic and I am sure everyone uses it but for those who do not here ya go.

QUICK CHAT
All NWN characters are assigned a “voice set”. Most of the voice sets for PCs that come delivered with the game include over 50 sounds/phrases for different occasions. Some of these sounds are generated automatically when you use a Radial Menu Emote. Custom modules available on the Internet also allow you to use NPC or monster voice sets for variation, although these have fewer phrases. Some of these are involuntary, such as the various sounds your character makes when struck in combat.

NWN also has a system called Quick Chat that can be used to activate the various voices in your set. You can activate Quick Chat by hitting the ‘V’ key on your keyboard (as long as your cursor isn’t in the chat box), followed by a letter code for a category, and a third letter for the actual Quick Chat command. The available commands are:


For example, to have your player use the “Thank You” sound, type ‘vxx’. (V to activate Quick Chat, X to select the Feelings category, and X to select the Thank You sound.) Note that the chat box must be inactive in order for this to work. Otherwise, your character will end up saying “vxx”.

It’s a good idea to keep this chart handy during play, at least until you have memorized some of the more common Quick Chat options that you use most frequently. It’s also smart to test the sounds in your character’s voice set before trying them in a game. Some of them may not match your character’s personality or the situation effectively.
