    Excellent news!

    To multiclass or not to multiclass (cleric)
    With a Cleric you are already kind of multiclassed in a way. They are one of the most powerful classes in the 'new' systewm versus their couterparts in the old system. They are naturally fighter/Magic-users without all the messy multiclassing. If I had a 20th cleric I would stick to cleric as multiclassing is an excellent way to reach certain goals but with only 5 levels the benefits of sticking to cleric are more profound then throwing in a few levels of something else. If I had 5 levels of something to take I would have taken 5 levels of Paladin before switching to Cleric I think to enhance the fighting bit.

    Classes Why?
    I have a very difficult time playing anything other than a Rogue. I always think that I am missing something when I go as a straight fighter and slap everything around. I am bit more of the finesse and planning type in my game. Also I tend not to take magic users because I never spend enough time learning the magic spells enough to use them to their best advantage. I think this is because I am hugely lazy. :)

    whats up with only 3 classes?
    In Pnp there is only a theoretical limit to how many classes you can tak.e In NWN you are limited to three, mainly for GUI reasons, through I think that 3 classes are enough anyway. And no, this won't change at any point in the future.

    Banning from log files?
    the logfile has a "Player X logged in (PUBLIC CDKEY)" message.

    AssignCommand not working on hacker
    The plot flag does not affect AssignCommands. I also suggest updating to 1.64 when it is out, it fixes half a year of reported security problems.

    1.64 beta available
    1.64 Beta 1 loads nice and quick. Unfortunately, I do get random crashes and exits everynow and again. The only thing I know at the moment is that it only seems to happen when I'm fighting, but it could be anyone, anywhere doing a number of things. A report like this, I would assume, wouldnt be useful without any addition information so does anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how to isolate an event such as this?
    I'm having a similar problem. I'm getting frequent CTD's. Doen't seem to happen under any specific circumstances, but it does seem to be soemthing like a buffer, or memory overload.
    We are investigating reports about an increased frequency of random crashes.

    More:
    Anything we could do to help eliminate this problem?
    Find a common pattern so we can reproduce it reliably :)

    What's the latest word on the WW series?
    No confirmation? No hints? No one else cares to hazard a guess? :confused:
    Let Rob enjoy his vacation :D
