    Friends,
    As many of you know, it has been a rough couple seasons for me here in RL. I lost a beloved pet after a long illness. On the heels of that event, my father entered a hospital with heart issues, was released after they installed a pacemaker, hardly a month later he was back in the hospital for a triple-bypass. Thankfully, father is home now the last couple weeks, doing well and happy to be back again.

    Throughout this period of heightened chaos in my life, our (and by that I mean MY and all the servers') dear friend Eriniel steadfastly provided erf after erf, update after...

    Hello and thank you all for attending.

    The month of April is upon us - a very busy month here indeed.

    We have added new DM Forums for our newer DMs - NEW DMs please show your presence by posting the first message in your forums - once I see you are there I'll assign moderator powers to your account. I would like to see some good use of the forum boards for DMs so please do enjoy.

    Lastly, once again, this month is SERVER PAYMENT MONTH - and the funds are low low low. If you love the server and have a dollar to spare, please click the DONATE button and help us out....

    In the last 48 hours we began experiencing highly unusual activity with the server - some sub-systems were not engaging at all, and in fact no spawns were being executed. On investigating Erin discovered the logs showed some hardware anomalies, and telltale heat alerts dating back to the 14th of April, with about 20-occurances. These caused a throttling of processes being executed on the CPU, and some scripts were therefore never executed... like spawns. We opted to have a tech put hands-on the system today, called it in and 20 minutes later had a return call from the techs to tell us that the...

    To all our many PLAYERS & DMS who are also RL students - GO TEAM! Kudos to you all! We all wish you the very best on your coursework. Take the time to study, rest before the exams, and give it your level best. _I_ know you will do fine.

    We will miss you all during this busy time, but _do_ spend your time wisely; do the study (yeah you can blow off steam here too when needed, but don't neglect the study please).

    We all look forward to your return to the server when the exams are done. Meanwhile, to everyone still on the server, LOG LOTS OF HOURS!!!!

    Friends,
    Recently there has been an increase in activity on the server and with it an increase in the requests for custom housing and other changes/additions to the module.
    I _think_ I have most of them ready to be claimed - IF YOU ASKED ME FOR SOME HOUSING / BUILD REQUEST IN THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS, contact me now, I think your property awaits. IF somehow I missed your request, I have my tools back and I can make edits much more rapidly again now. So, ASK me about your requests for housing and let's get the keys assigned ASAP.

    Hope to see you in game friends!

    ODA and a whole crew of attending Necromancers rejoiced in the early hours of Sunday as they successfully re-animated GM_ODA's notebook computer and copied essential data from the drives. The attending necromancers were able to get the notebook's battery powered up for the attempt. Files are still being sorted at this hour, but all indications are positive that the essential data is now transfered.

    GM_ODA has been without his main set of files for several months since the sudden demise of his notebook computer due to a failed power component. Said the exhuberant ODA "We will do this...

    UPDATE - The story has been SLASHDOTTED

    Sometime in the last 12 hours, the gamespy systems that assemble listings of nwn servers to the nwnmain.exe (nwn launch software) ceased to function. The list formerly seen under the INTERNET tab is now empty. No word on the reason or when/if the service will be restored.

    For those wishing to play multiplayer nwn on ArgentumRegio use the following instructions:

    Navigate to C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN where you will need to find the nwmain.exe program, right click it and COPY. Next navigate to your desktop, right click on the...

    YOU can help, regardless of your cash-flow or skills - we can use assistance on a number of fronts, perhaps one of the following will inspire you to 'jump in'?

    PROMOTING THE SERVER - once a month, you could post in any of these threads to help inform others that this server is alive and growing.

    Yesterday, Erin was reviewing some of the server logs and discovered several recent instances of the server OVERHEATING and reacting by reducing CPU speed until the problem abated. THIS explains the server acting odd the last week or two perhaps. We had the technicians on site check the machine and they found it 'hotter' than the rest in the rack and showing signs of a power supply fan failing. The system was pulled, the power supply removed and replaced and the whole machine brought back online within 45 minutes. Kudos to all involved.

    THAT is one good reason we host professionally...

    Friends,

    Bless you all. This is a FINE community of gamers here and your willingness to stand together is to be commended.

    Hosting in a data center on a dedicated server means we have redundant power and internet connections, virtually no down time, and computer repairs made on same day as reported with no parts cost for us. It costs a bit, but the quality of service (I feel) is worth it and far superior to 'home hosting' which would be my last choice.

    I have been stressed out lately - money issues and all that getting to me. RL was biting me in the butt way more...

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS TO HELP TEST THE NEW NEVERWINTERCONNECTIONS.COM The sooner we get the needed testing and bug-fixes done there, the sooner we return to what we love to code most of all - ArgentumRegio.

    Please, if you have some time, regardless of how well you knew the old NWC - please, help us test the new site. LOGIN or make a new account there and start exploring. I will post a follow-up to this post with details...

    Some of you have without a doubt noticed that Eriniel and myself have been largely absent from the server the last month+. The reason for this is simple; we are working on rebuilding the neverwinterconnections.com web site. As of this writing we are working on member feature and hope to soon be able to invite BETA TESTERS to help us get a handle on any remaining bugs.

    PLEASE KEEP WATCH ON THIS PAGE FOR MORE DETAILS AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE.

    NEW XP system in place (modified the formula to improve the distribution of XPs - non-warriors will get less from combat than warriors, but not so stilted as it was before and 'less than pure' warrior PCs will also get less than the 'pure-at-rippin-yer-parts-off' er, I mean *coughs* 'hard-core-warrior'. Give it a whirl with a few of your PCs and PLEASE SEND ME FEEDBACK on if this is working for your builds better, and give me numbers please (xp, your level and classes and the monster killed) so I can get a feel for how it is working. Again, we will adjust this as needed.

    The above URL is good until the end of APRIL - download FREE 3D modelling software (three whole software packages!). This is great stuff to have, even if you don't know/do 3D modelling (yet) it is a great way to see what it is all about without putting any money down.

    If you have ANY data there of value to you GO THERE NOW AND SAVE THE PAGES THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU!

    Thread in their general forum describes this mess. The news is not moving very vast through the community however and unless we hear from those who control it soon, there will be likely nothing we can do to save the site.

    Last week, I flubbed a typed command and as a result the server was offline for nearly a week. ERIN GETS ALL THE CREDIT FOR RAISING THE DEAD SYSTEM - her skills and kind efforts resulted in you ALL getting your PCs back intact and the server running better than ever.

    In the process of bringing the server back, we discovered our hard drives were near to failing and had to have those swapped out and all files copied over (yeah, sounds simple but the details you do NOT want to know). Again, MANY THANKS TO ERINIEL - our fair Princess of Codalot! Be sure to thank her when you see her, her...

    In keeping with my annual tradition of botching something on the server about once a year - I did it again.

    The server is down for a bit - we'll bring it back in a little while though. Meanwhile, feel free to post in the forum or even click on that lonely DONATE button.

    The server will be back asap.

    The servervault is just one PLAYER shy of 1850, and the Area count is 1238 Areas. WOW. Solid, stable, lag free - loaded with RP-enhancing features and FUN. So if you have not visited, please do so - if you have visited the server before, login and log some hours (others need to see PLAYERS logged in to gather the courage to join themselves, be the leader and show them how it is done).

    DMs - I need to see more events posted here and on neverwinterconnections.com please, so jump in and stir up some adventure!

    Making noises and demanding I order parts, which I did this morning. If I'm offline for a couple days, you know the noisy parts did not hold out long enough for their replacements to arrive.

This clearly shows that we continue to attract more than 50 new PLAYERS each month to look in on the server - those we poll claim to love the module and her features, and the server thus continues to grow. Still, we need MORE PEOPLE LOGGED IN LONGER HOURS to help solidify the community here, so if you are able, please do log in and show a presence for others here in ArgentumRegio!

    Some of you may have noticed that the forums have been changing a bit since the departure of our prior Forum Admin. We are working on both the module/server and the forum to bring you the BEST possible gaming experience.

    And it all may end soon.

    Simple facts are that while GM_ODA and Eriniel have time on their hands and a willingness to provide their skills and talents to the server - GM_ODA is disabled (can't work, doctor's orders) and Eriniel is stranded on a desert isle. While we can cope with these conditions - GM_ODA has been feeling a pinch from it all.

    Servervault now stands in excess of 2000 3000, and the new forum has surpassed 4400 14,000 posts, with a membership now approaching 300 500 members!

    The module is again being updated on an accelerated pace as ERINIEL HAS RETURNED!

    Eriniel lives in a part of the world where it is very hot in the summer and running NWN overheats her CPU/GPU - so she is pretty much absent during the summer months (northern hemisphere) - but, at long last, cool breezes win out and Eriniel is back with us...

If you do NO POSTING, then all the promotions are fallen upon my overworked shoulders and more, sound like ONLY ONE PERSONS' OPINION OF A PLAYERLESS SERVER.

    Bob Mattin has fallen victim to viruses (again) and lost use of all his computers. He has vowed (for mysterious reasons) never to return to NWN. This means we have an IMMEDIATE OPENING for FORUM ADMINISTRATOR.

I look forward to meeting you all soon - though I have been largely offline lately, I will soon be returning to my usual activity level online. Hope to see you all then.

    Sometime SATURDAY NIGHT - SUNDAY MORNING east coast USA time - the servers will LOOSE CONNECTION WITH THE INTERNET, as my hosting providers update their router firmware/software. The outage should last only about 15-45 minutes, so if you get bumped offline during these hours, take a break and come back half an hour later please.

    My apologies for the inconvenience.

    Thanks in advance.
