    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights forum highlights, collected by NWVault. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    Any plans for a 1.67?
    How will the new SetName() work with stacked items? Like potions or ammo... if one stack gets renamed, will it no longer be stackable with a second of the (more or less) same type... i.e. essentially becomming different items? Or would the new name overwrite the previous name when combined like that (vise versa)?

    I know for customized armor... if you sell it to a merchant that already has infinite of that same type, the custom piece would be lost... I hope that wouldn't be the case for renamed items.
    It works the same way that stacked items with different names work (they stack if all the other item properties are the same in both items). If you don't want them to stack with items of a different name that just do a CopyObject() call first and change the TAG of the item before calling SetName() on it, then the items will no longer stack.

    new dm needing dm tips
    There is also a DM section of our website that might be a good place to start:

    As stated the DM Tips sticky above has some good pointers:

    Also the DM Friendly Initiative team have put together an excelent module that takes you through the DM client and shows you how to take advantage of a lot of its features.

    You can download it from the vault:

    Clean up ideas for the The DMFI Wand and Widget Package by Hahnsoo sticky.
    The "The DMFI Wand and Widget Package by Hahnsoo" sticky is getting excessively long and looks like it could use a good clean-up. I would like to start a new sticky on the DMFI and the various tools/tutorials/etc that they have created. Any ideas on what information you guys would like listed in the new sticky?

    multiplayer online
    Cryonosis is correct. Server vault allows the server administrators to control the kinds of characters they will allow in their game world, whether that's level/feat/race restrictions, item restrictions, even age or subrace.

    It also serves as a kind of anti-cheat device, so that players can't muck about with their characters in between sessions. The characters are safe from illegal mucking in the server vault. :)

    Thinking of buying, needs some answers.
    Not to mention the official premium NWN modules available from the BioWare store.
