NWN User-Made Modules
Soul Sojourner:
I don't know how much you guys have previously gotten into user-made modules, but... as some of you know, I used to play them all the time and I still do on occasion.
I just got done REPLAYING TORTURED HEARTS I just the other day. This modules is HUGE. I played it in 2005, it came out in 2004. It had been a long time since I had played it and I remember fiercely enjoying it. The guy who made it still replies to comments and updates his modules, which is admirable indeed. (makes me think of 420 =P) The mod greatly changed since I played it in the past.
I've played tons and tons of user-made modules and I've definitely enjoyed a great deal of them. (way better than the campaign and expansions, although I've played the campaign like 11 times over the years...)
I created this topic to see what others here have played, what mods they recommend, and if anyone still plays any.

Unfortunately I think a lot of the user made mods I played never got updated with newer versions of NWN so I have no idea how playable they still are.
Modules I have played (and enjoyed):
Shadowlords Campaign by Adam Miller
Shadowlords 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
Dreamcatcher 1, 2, 3, and 4
Demon (can't find a link to it)
Demon Cards
SoU -> HotU Campaign Winner
The Nether Scrolls by Papermonk
Post HotU Campaign Winner
Sands of Fate 1 - Shadows over Heliopolis by John McA
Almost Premium Module
Darkness over Daggerford by Ossian Studios® Inc.
There are a bunch I never got around to trying like the other SoU -> HotU and Post HotU contest entries and the other "almost premium mod" AL3: Tyrants of the Moonsea by Alazander.

Seriously, they should be just as playable as they were. I've honestly never had any problems with mods that weren't updated to the newest versions.
The Shadowlords series, Dreamcatcher series, and Demon modules last time I played through them all worked flawlessly. (I've played through them probably 3 times altogether) I still have them all, and shadowlords were the first ones and my fiance and I played the first couple less than a month ago, they still worked flawlessly so the rest probably do as well.
I don't think I ever tried the Nether Scrolls, but I've definitely seen it in on the vault. Neither have I played Sands of Fate, not sure if I've seen it before or not. Darkness over Daggerford was good from what I played but I never finished it and I don't remember why... lol.
I played the premium mods... Witch's Wake, ShadowGuard and Kingmaker. Since my fiance has diamond version... complete disappointment. It says on the box: Kingmaker expansion: Including three complete adventures. Total fucking bullshit. They were all fun, but they were all short and NONE of them were finished. I played the Witch's Wake DEMO a long time before I played the real thing. THEY ENDED IN THE SAME PLACE. What a fucking joke.
I can't even begin to list all the user made mods I've played since I played a shit-ton of them in the past.
Here are some anyway:
-Shadowlords 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
-Dreamcatcher 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
-Demon
-TORTURED HEARTS I, TORTURED HEARTS I v2.05
-The Hex coda 01
-Excrucio Eternum
-Elegia Eternum (or something like that, it was the first one)
-Penultima series... and the rerolled
-Tales of Arterra: Not sure which one? Maybe all?
-Midnight and Twilight
-Runes of Blood
-Bloodright: The Blood Royal
-Blackguard 1, 2, 3
-SQ1 and 2 ShadowQueen modules or something like that... I remember the first was made to take place between the events of expansion 1 and expansion 2. Though SQ2 was made to take place after expansion 2.
-Darkness over Daggerford
And I that's probably only half the list but it's all I can remember at the moment. Most I played a long time ago.
I've always wanted to play mods by Fabien Cerutti, but they're all in French. I've heard good things but I don't speak French dammit!

Actually the original Witch's Wake wasn't a demo, it was part 1 of what was suppose to be a free complete campaign by a Bioware employee. The Premium Mod version was just the original "remastered" (whatever that's suppose to mean).
I agree that ShadowGuard and Kingmaker aren't worth playing, mostly because, like Witch's Wake, they are both part 1 of an on-going campaign that was never finished.
However, the premium mods Pirates of the Sword Coast and Infinite Dungeons are both really fun single player and multiplayer. While Infinite Dungeons is just a hack'n'slash game, PotSC actually has a compelling storyline and really interesting locations and quests.
As for Wyvern Crown of Cormyr, the only real reason to play that is to see the interesting way they implemented jousting. Otherwise it is just a pale imitation of Darkness Over Daggerford.

Soul Sojourner:
The reason I said demo was because it said it was a demo somewhere when I found it on the Bioware site a couple years ago. But you're right, it's the same length as part 1 so how the hell can it be a demo? lol. Well, I played both versions and they're basically the same. I really liked Witch's Wake though, it pisses me off that they didn't finish it.
I completely forgot about those ones. I should think about getting them. Namely, potsc. Infinite dungeons isn't appealing to me, however.
