Neverwinter Nights

Well I'll probably make it at some point.

Did I mention I have the complete legal set now?
I just have to actually bother to go on there now.

I've got NWN and SoU. I entered all the codes when I installed them, but now only play from the SoU CD. It hasn't asked for any of the others so far, and I doubt that you'd have to change CDs when playing online. It would ruin the flow somewhat.

[Jamski]

So, you're saying you'd only need a valid HotU CD to play online?

Erm, yes!

I was looking around for more serious roleplay servers (namely City of Arabel), but i think I'm going to have to get more familiar with the game before I'm comfortable roleplaying.


I'll make a monk on Folderol later tonight, i think...

[Jamski]

Ok, but I'll warn you now that Folderol's server is being "tinkered with" today. Hopefully this means it will be faster and more reliable in the future.

"Serious" RP servers are a matter of taste. I don't like having to gather food so I can eat. I can do that in RL. And my STR 8 mage doesn't like carrying a 20lb bedroll around either.

You're missing the point Diss. Jamski suggested that on top of needing a unique key this was tied to your cd, so that legit keys you acquired from anywhere wouldn't work. In this case acquiring the game (and hence using a no-cd or backup cd crack) with a legit key still wouldn't work.

However we have, I think, decided that that is not the case.

I never recommend pirating the game. I suggest buying it. And then installing a NO-CD crack so you don't have to switch CD's if you are playing other games (as I do). I have no problem logging onto multiplayer.

you never have to change CD's. Just put in the latest expansion you have. And that's all you need. When I mentioned changing CD's I was talking about other games I play such as KOTOR (I haven't found a working no-cd crack for this game, I had one, but the recent patch messed it up), and Baldur's Gate 1 and 2.

that's kind of heavy for a bedrooll.

I have played a DM'd module with food and water in it. It was kind of cool. We had to do some tinkering to get the timing right, so it wasn't saying we were hungry or thirsty so often. But these worked best in DM'd modules. I wouldn't care for them in persistant worlds too much unless they had a DM.

And you can use the site I provided above to find some good roleplayers. Some are individual modules, others are persistant worlds.

the only thing about good roleplaying persistant worlds, they always ask for a silly application to "prove" you are a true roleplayer. I don't like that. I just want to join a game and start playing.

[Jamski]

Well it does stop people joining and saying,
"Where are all the leik leet weapons, d00d?"

At which point you tell them that they're all to be found in the Dragon's Cave, but not to worry about the name because it's just to deter tourists, and is in fact a fully-functioning magic smithy. They go in, they never come out. They return the next day with new characters, who don't return either.
"This suXX0rs, I keep dying."
"Let's go play Unreal Tournament instead."
"Dude! "

[DrSpike]

Uncanny.

[Jamski]

We had someone get a bugged character today

They were getting 1xp per kill and spawning monsters EVERYWHERE in HUGE WAVES!

It was amusing
