I was going to start playing NWN again, but i can't connect to any servers. I connect to Gamespy and get a serverlist, but whenever I try to connect to a server it times out and my favorites / history shows all the servers as offline, even though they are shown as active in the server list.

I'm still experiencing this. I don't think it is a problem with Gamespy.

Just get the IP from Jam, or from other PW sites if you want to try those.

I did a short test and connected to 2 servers out of 3.

That wasn't working either.


Apparently it was a problem with my router, despite me opening up all ports in an effort to get it to work. I ended up disconnecting it and connecting directly to the internet from my computer, and it worked.

Port redirection (translation) is your friend.

if anyone still cares about bioware modules. yeah you have to pay for them. But I still feel they are better than most user made mods. We'll see what the price is on this one.

It is yarr and woo though?

Now that my exams are done it means I can devote a lot more time to playing Baldur's Gate (again). Not to self: don't kill seemingly random punters just because it seems fun at the time. And don't flood the bloody mines without getting the people out first either!!!
I'm looking forward to Jam's version immensely.
It is strange (and very rewarding) to be able to control your henchmen once again.

You've been playing BG for about a year!

it'll get better when you get to bg2. There's just so many cooler things in bg2. The game flows much better. I still play BG1 every now and then because it is the first. but not nearly as much as bg2.

By the time he finishes BG2 we will all have evolved into superior mental energy based life forms.

But it'll get done before Duke Nukem Forever, of course.

Bioware The only company that beats Blizzard for patching.

I started BG again - it's not the same game.
I'm just up to the Lighthouse as I clean up all the bottom of the map (except, ahem, Durlag's Tower ) before heading to Cloakwood.
Will the Beregost smithy make you more than one suit of Ankheg armour? Just wondering... It seems as though two isn't enough.

OK I just bought NWN (yes I know, it has been out for ages).

Does anyone at Poly want to multi? I'm a total noob at NWN although I am an experienced D&D player and played both BG and BGII.

I'm prepared to play any kind of character, although I won't play PvP since I don't gank people and I don't like it. I prefer co-operative RP. That's one reason I'm asking here since I know most of you.

I have a stereotypical dwarf fighter (full plate, great axe specialization) that is currently at 9th level.

What I'd like is a monk, or an elf wizard or sorcerer, but if I have to be a gnome, then so be it.
