Neverwinter Vault is reporting that Mask of the Betrayer has "gone gold," and will be released on October 9 in the U.S. (late September in Europe). In the game industry, "gone gold" means that the game is finished, and the gold master has been sent for replication. The story also reports that the game looks very polished, and will have over 25 hours of gameplay in the single player campaign. So, a little over 3 weeks to go until it is in our hands. {mos_fb_discuss:14}
The official Mask of the Betrayer website is now live. It contains screenshots, news, art, and info about the NWN2 expansion. There doesn't seem to be much new to report if you've been following the news of the expansion, except for word of an official "module exchange site," which will be a central location to share modules and user content. No word on how/if that will differ from what the Vault already offers. {mos_fb_discuss:14}
Sorry about the delay - I almost forgot about posting the registration page for this Sunday's session. It is now up. I've reinstalled and patched NWN2 on the server machine, to address the problems discussed in this thread and this thread. Tonight I will do some testing. If you can't make the next session, please let us know in the Session Availability section of the forums. We will try the 1.07 beta patch again, assuming my testing goes OK.
Due to the inability to access the server vault, we're going to have to cancel the session. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'll troubleshoot this week, to see if it is more than just beta patch issue. Sorry folks.
I understand that some/all of you aren't seeing the server vault. I'm going to restart that machine and see if that fixes it.
The forums have been updated with the latest patch for the forum software being used, so post away. I will need to go back in and tweak some things, and add in some functions that were lost in the upgrade. The basic functionality is there, though. If you notice any bugs, please let me know.
The forums are down for maintenance. If you want to provide input regarding whether or not to use the 1.07 beta patch on Sunday (see message below, and the poll), message me. Thanks.
So, 1.07 beta is here. If past release schedules are any indication, we are still at least a couple of weeks away from 1.07 final. This patch is very tempting, though, especially from a DM perspective. There is also some content that could affect everyone. Some people are reporting some pretty dramatic performance improvements over in the NWN2 forums, on both old and new machines. Other examples of changes include the knockdown feat, which now has a 2 round cooldown period (i.e. you can't continuously be knocked down, or knock an enemy down). This patch contains the new camera modes that will be included with Mask of the Betrayer. I'm very tempted about the possibility of using the beta . . . but that's just my perspective. I wouldn't consider using it unless everyone wanted to use it. Two other notes- there is a reverter patch to 1.06 which is a 93 MB download, and the beta patch is a 43 MB download. What does everybody else think? Check out the new poll to the right.
As you know, the server connection info appears here on the site at game time each week. Generally, the connection info doesn't change (although I may change the password at some point). Still, if the web server that is hosting this site ever went down at game time, that could present problems. So, I would like to have a backup email system in place. At game time, if this site is down, I will send out an email to each player with the connection information. I will use the address you've used to register here at the site, unless you send me a message with a different address that you'd like me to use. Later this week, I will be sending out an email to everyone, and copying myself, so that I have an email in my mailbox to which I can just "Reply to All" if I ever need to contact you that way. To set up your spam filters so that it doesn't get tagged as spam, the email will come from my name here (venture) at naeldor dot com.
The registration page and roleplay forum for the September 9 session are up. If you can't make it, please post in the Session Availability section of the forums. Also, the session summary from the September 2 session is up, and there is an additional image or two over in the gallery that were not included in the summary .
