    Hi all

    Just wondering what the current state of NWN 1 as a multiplayer game is.

    Going back a wee while I ran a module which had a reasonable playerbase but due to a whole range of reasons it came down for a while. I have been thinking of putting it back up and going back to working on further developing it.

    Is it viable to run NWN modules anymore?

    Does the multiplayer log in thing that is part of the game still work ok?

    How are the modules that are left doing?

    Many thanks in advance for any comments.

    The multiplayer servers have been taken down but you can still use third party services like GameRanger to host a server.

    Ah, the days of multiplayer NWN. I recall a simple half orc barbarian build got me into the hall of fame on a fairly large capture the flag/king of the hill game. Good times, good times.

    Anyways, im interested in the answer to this question as well. What sort of game did you host? I would be down.

    @damedog

    It was a PW called Trials of Newcastle.

    There used to be quite a bit about it on the Vault but for some reason it has been removed. I do not know why as I have not even looked at NWN in a very long time. I still have the module and all associated bits though.
