Undead Redux - Gives most of the skeletal undead better textures and models. I love it.
Lord of Worms Creature Override Pack - Includes various undead, goblin, ogre, ettin, earth elemental, and orc overrides. The undead differ slightly from above so use personal preference is which to override with. Earth Elemental is bugged still so don't use that model or texture.
Ravenloft - POTM Override Skybox - Way better skybox set than Bioware's.
Bugbear Facelift with Mummies - Improves the bugbears and also gives the mummies a new look. Will override the other mummy override though so choose which one you like best.
NEW Updated Werewolf Model - Not a drastic change from the original but I like the new look.
NEW D&D Classic Elementals - I personally like this one but it also makes the models of some of the elementals bigger than what they originally were visually. In my experience this hasn't really affected gameplay but if you are iffy about that don't get this. Doesn't override the elder models but if you want it to make a copy of the ".mdl" files included and add on "eld" to the end of the ".mdl file names.
Somewhat NEW Aenea Transparent GUI Overhaul/Upgrade - I don't like every aspect of this overhaul but the transparent GUI and colored HP bars can really make a difference in NWN. Try to pick and choose what you like here.
NEW Lord of Worms ~ Minotaurs - Better looking minotaur model. Don't use the appearance 2da included though.
NEW Weapons Redux: Spears Maybe not many spear users around but if you want them to look different here you go.
NEW Lord of Worms - Werewolves and Fire Giants Alright this one is a bit more complicated if you want to use it for an override. It is a fire giant and werewolf replacer however. First, they replace the female fire giants with an alternate male model so you do not want to do that. For the fire giant all you want to use from the mdls is c_gntfire.mdl for the male fire giant. For the werewolves you'll have to outright rename models to get the one you want which I did not mess with at this time. I recommend it for the new fire giant though. You also need to export the files from the hak. You can use nwhak for this.
NEW Creature Override Compilation - Honestly only recommending this one for the trolls. Much of the content in it is already covered above or in Avlis' haks as seperate models. You'll find the trolls in Creature_I.7z. Not responsible for the results of trying to use any other overrides included.
NEW Bioware Rural Trees Override - Compatible with other tile overrides this changes many of the skimpy default Bioware trees to be a bit more robust. There is also a override for the default placeable trees included to give them the same effect. Use bioware_rural_trees.zip, bioware_city_trees.zip, placeables_addon.zip, and enhanced_trees_placeables.zip.

I found a new one of these that is absolutely stunning. Its effects on the Rural tileset are jaw-dropping, and others change beautifully as well.

Effectively, this changes a looot of the standard NWN tiles. Things are much, much much prettier, and there are some new VFX (lens flares up the wazoo, for instance). For Windows users, there's even a little helper script that lets you turn off changes you don't like. (No such luck for linux/mac, unless you can find a way to run .bat). I heartily recommend it.
A word of warning though: when I say change tiles, I mean it. There are... lots more trees in my Mikona now. They're beautiful! But they weren't there before. So... just be careful with what you're referencing, because other people may not see it. (Of course, that wouldn't be a problem if everyone installed this, so get cracking!)
Disclaimer: Overriding isn't terribly complicated but it can get to be trial and error if there's certain models and textures you don't like with any of these, so keep track of what you put in there. Otherwise everything above just gets dropped into NWN's override folder. Bugs from improper or bad overrides can cause crashes and graphic glitches so be sure of what you are putting in and what you are doing before you do it.
