    Multi-player mod making?
    If you mean building a module in real-time (i.e. modifying the world in a multiplayer server), then the answer is no, this is not possible.

    P.S. 3 vs P.S. 2 - image quality in NWN2 ?

    I completely agree, thats why I said it was a big IF, and said its very possible Obsidian will develop a game that runs very well on both brands cards. With that said though, I am not going to be surprised if the Electron system favors Nvidia cards, and I am sure neither would you.
    The code has not been written to favor one vendor or the other. It's been written in accordance to the DX9c specification. Which ever vendor does a better job of implementing the spec is the one that will ultimately perform better.

    However, the 3.0 rendering pipeling has been developed strictly on NVidia cards since they're the only ones that had 3.0 technology available for the last 1+ years.

    But, I have a Radeon X1800 still in the box sitting here on my desk that I'm going to test the 3.0 rendering pipeline out on at some point soon. Honestly, I don't forsee any problems. ;)

    50 + Monsters
    Good point - the answer is I wouldn't count "Orc Shaman" and "Orc Warrior" as separate monsters. Just something to keep in mind for the 50+ monster comment. :)
