I'm up for it, but seeing as how I'm a total n00b at it AND running a 1.2gig laptop with 16 megs video memory...  well hehe... I don't think it'll be much fun for any server I get on.

In addition, I'm stuck in the phone age too.

I don't actually remember, but the system requirements
couldn't have been all that great.

Don't know how much a campaign/server set up needs though....

800MHz P-III- check (1.2GHz Celeron)
256MB RAM- check (512 MB)
32MB video RAM- BZZZZZZZZZZ! (16MB)


I think I found why my system runs it so crappily. :p

Oh, I remember exactly what it asked for processor wise....

450MHz processor to run.....

My old system, though it was a PII 450MHz, registared with the game as a 433MHz system and that was why I had so many problems trying to play it.....

Parden the intrusion fella's, but I just recently (as in two days ago) reinstalled my NWN CD's.  If you guys do play online, would love to join in the fun.  I play anything, though I have a penchant for mage (Sorcerer) or clerical types. :)

Yeah some nice classes there, i like most of the classes in NWN, in particular Dwarven Defenders, Arcane Archers and Paladins.

Been playing occasionally in the single player campaign.

Let me know when you guys are setting up a server. 

Working on a Dwarven War Cleric right now.  He is 3rd level reaching for 4th.

BUMP

Perhaps a group of us who are interested in playing could meet up on a server, Paladin came up with the idea of playing through NWN connections but said it may take some time for this to be organised as he was away from home.

Would be cool if we can sometime get this organised, myself and others were up for playing JKA or JK2 when those games were suggested but that went quiet.

Just let me know what server.

There lies the problem heh, i have been tied to the same server for over a year, i would suggest the server as i DM on it, but its currently having PRC intergrated into it and as a result is very buggy.

I could do some looking into finding a server, depends really on what the group that wants to play on it is looking for. There are some hardcore RP servers (forced RP) such as the famous "Hybrid Middle Earth server"in that server it can take a long long time to progress in terms of levels. There are some action/RP servers, they encourage rp at times but dont force it, and there is some pure hack and slash action servers.

I've played on the hardcore RP servers before, and to be honest i instead perfer the action/RP where RP isnt forced.

When Paladin gets back, we can try his NWN Connections idea, until then it looks like joining a server in order to keep interest until Paladin is ready.

I made two, very hard to play a mage (wizard) solo. lol  Much MUCH easier as a cleric.  It's a RP server, so be prepared for slower then usual xp earnings.  But hopefully a richer play environment overall.  The good thing is you don't need any fancy mods/(haks) to play it.

Yeah, there is also a level 20 restriction until you do enough RP to gain credits to go beyond that, not particulary a fan of force RP to gain levels.

I found another server which looks quite interesting, based on the screenshots etc, but it requires hakpaks. http://www.sfrealm.com/

It was rated quite highly at the server hall of fame at NWNVault

There are a number of servers listed at NWNVault, i'll check more of them out.

I was just there.  Seems I've been on that server before and I vaugely remember it, or rather the character I have.  Much has changed.

It is still pretty laggy, especially compared to my memory of what it used to be like.

Anyway I have a 10th level on that server and I would rate it 2.5 out of 5 due to lag.
