    it's well worth it for SP. I've played alot of SP. Along with the original campaigns, there are many modules available for download. Many of them are very well made, just as good as the Bioware created stuff. I've played modules with voice acting as well- and the acting wasn't half bad.

      If I'm correct, NWN MP is limited to 64 players? If so, is there a server or whatever you Poly folks get together?
      Many of the Poly NWN players are playing at a server called Folderol. Jamski could provide a link for you (or you can find it in game).

      There are a couple of ways to connect to multiplayer games. If you know the IP address, you can just type that in. Or you can just select games from a list. And if you want privacy, you can enter password protected games.

        Cool thanks guys

        I don't think I'll be getting NWN until June but it's something I'm definitely interested in.

          And you can always make your own modules any time you want - even if you don't have a CLUE about programming you can still set up quests and monsters and items and maps using the awesome toolset NWN comes with.

            Why? The Platnium edition is out with all the patches and both of the expansion packs plus a bunch of free modules. I believe that's currently atound $39.95 but you might find it discounted at some big warehouse store.

              Yeah, Jamski's rubbish at building mods, but somehow he managed to come up with the Dungeon of 'poly.

              He hasn't done its sequel yet mind....

              Barinthus, once you get NWN then you too can play the Dungeon, and join the horde of people badgering Jam to write a sequel.

              I spent ages working out how the hell I could fit a door into a wall in the toolset, but once that was done I was away! I even found time to create loads of wootly kukris, but sadly the product will never be released. Calling your mod The Kukri Book wouldn't really make it too many friends, and people would end up wondering what the hell all the in-jokes were about - just like DoA in fact!
              Is it possible to have a bag (for example) with items inside within a chest? Or, to be more specific, can I take the properties of a bag of holding, change the graphic to that of a book, put a wootly kukri inside, and plonk it on one of the bookcases? Just a thought....

                NWN also has quite a large following here on Poly. There have been many NWN specific threads which have broken the 500 barrier.

                    I made no claims as to the relative better/worse levels of NWN and a "proper MMORPG"

                      Most of the PWs have nothing like the 64 though. Folderol has anything between 0-12, unless popularity has increased/decreased recently.

                                And your reason for not doing that is?
