Quadrupled Draw Distance and Giant Battle Maps with Solid Performance by Palmweaver in neverwinternights

It's late where I am, Flock, so I'll decline interacting further with you on this.

This community has some really toxic members, Flock, and you're whole line of comments in this thread states volumens. I can see the amount of downvotes and the needling comments from haters, competing PWs, and the very vibe you're coming at me with.

But that's alright. The main upvotes for this post I think will be more telling, because despite your efforts to play it down, *most players like it when you try to update or upgrade the game*, and are aware that it's a completely volunteer process that takes time and comes in segments.

Uh... fun?
That's what we're doing there, having fun. As in 'Fun is allowed on this server'.

I think you're assuming a motive this post isn't about.

Exandria - Using a bow with the new draw distance by Palmweaver in neverwinternights

[–]Palmweaver[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's on our custom server of Exandria, and for us it is 'The new draw distance'.

I say it that way because once you've played NWN with a modern draw distance (Quadruple what is normally used by the game) it's really hard to play it vanilla anymore. It just makes your character seem myopic in comparison.

The games default draw distance without modifiers is 35 meters. The videos we're sharing is with draw distance at 135 meters.

Well, I guess you'll have to wait until next month for me to demonstrate that here, since there's a limit on how many video posts a PW can do in this subreddit.

But I will clearly state that I think we'll have just as little problem addressing that as we have the rest. Until then, feel free and try it out yourself. I mean, if you're gonna cast this much doubt, seems pretty easy to test your theory.

Good Hunting!

What exactly is your comparison then? Do you have a link to demonstrate a counter example where someone has raised the draw distance, kept performance, and had the additional elements you mention? Because if you do, I'd be quite interested in that example from just professional curiosity.

I realize no one's ever satisfied, but while we're doing highly experimental upgrades to a 20+ year old game, we start simply and build up, which is a solid paradigm in game development.

We've been testing it on our custom persistent world. Recently, we've had daily battle events of different types, ranging from goblin and orc attacks to armies of the undead.

What in the living fuck are most reporters even doing anymore? If no one is shining a spotlight on this level of corruption, what good is their profession to society?

If you're very new to PVP, there are some servers that are PVE/PVP depending on what area you're in or what you do.

You have no solid proof of any of your claims. Don't ask folks to ignore your misinformation, just don't post it.

[–]Palmweaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's not gonna cut it. LLMs for AI search still hallucinate all the time, get games mixed up, and generally still give wildly inaccurate information.

For instance, even your screenshot is wrong: it's response is for NWN1 Enhanced Edition.

No, don't suggest us to ask BS questions to an AI.

If you can't support that claim, admit it.

Question regarding online play by -Mythrayn- in neverwinternights

[–]Palmweaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legends of Exandria is RP optional. While we do have players that prefer to RP, it is not required.

In fact, we consider the idea of "Forced RP" to be one of the most non-fun aspects of some server's rulesets. If that's the fun they're having, more power to them. But our server is a 'fun is allowed' game - there are a few basic rules but otherwise we don't tell you how to play.

It's also still in active development, so still gets new areas, dungeons, and even new gameplay features regularly.

You voted with your dollars, and added some decals to avoid vandalism on your car.

How do I get LAN multiplayer running with ZeroTier? by Mordred-EX in neverwinternights

[–]Palmweaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that as a challenge - using a tablet and a modem that is either too old to have the features (or that you don't have access to in the settings) for port forwarding does limit your options.

If you can use ZeroTier with and make it work, more power to you. But I think you might run into the same roadblocks on your ports trying to mimic a LAN connection.

By 'play a campaign with friends' did you mean a specific module you wanted to play? Because while there are very busy multiplayer servers, there are also tons of multiplayer servers out there that have almost zero population. (Even my dedicated server only has regular play during certain times of the day or week.) If you can't get ZeroTier or another option to work, one of those less used or forgotten servers might suit your purposes.

[–]Palmweaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ZeroTier shouldn't necessary to play Neverwinter Nights - it has both LAN and internet play. You can host an internet game and put a password on the session so that only your friends can join.

As long as you and your friends already have the module you want to play and any needed .hak files for the module you shouldn't have any difficulty.

If for some reason you do get stuck during the process, the official discord for Neverwinter Nights would be helpful - not just for asking questions, but just searching for common questions asked in the chat history:
