After talking to some helpful developers in the NWNX EE community, I have determined that I should be able to do the plugin-work required to transfer us over to EE. For those of you not familiar with plugins, they are programs running via a program called Neverwinter Nights Xtendder (NWNX for short), which allow us to do a lot of things the base game cannot.
So, the current game plan is to finish work on Mechanus, and then transition over.
I plan to sew up some issues in lower-level play (like evening out of xp and loot awards in some areas) as well, to ensure a good lower-level experience as much as possible.
I wish I could offer a timeline, but that will depend in part on how quickly I'm able to finish work on Mechanus, and then on how long it takes to convert our module's code base to use the nwnx:EE plugins.

@funky Hi and Thanks again for all that you and the Team do! I feel like my question is totally self centered ( Motivations are a Murky Topic) BUT my question and concern is about EE and Multi-Boxing. From my limited and vague understanding EE has limited ability to Multi-Box and I was wondering if that is something even on the Radar or is that perhaps something you (Team) would look at Way way down the road, if at all? (Apologies for cramming a 5 word question into a wall of text) Have a Great Weekend!

I'm happy to support multiboxing, though I personally prefer increasing overall playercount, and if a decision between them is forced, would go that way. That said, I know some people enjoy multiboxing as a playstyle, and will continue to support it consistent with the overall well-being of the server. I don't see any reason we can't have both, though. Can you point me to info about EE and multiboxing?

Would everyone need a copy of NWN:EE to play on Higher Ground, or is this plugin aimed at allowing people who have NWN:EE to join those of us that use NWN:Diamond?

That gets to the question if we leave a copy of 1.69 running or not. Undetermined as of yet, though it seems like it'd be a fair amount of added expense to do so.

Multiboxing with EE is totally possible, at least on local server. It also provides increased stability and performance.

Personally. EE doesn't work well on my video card. So I probably won't be moving over.

What's the status on this? No updates from FunkySwerve in almost two years.

Any status update on this? I played on HG a while back and would love to play it again on EE.

No progress on any development that we've seen for couple of years now other than some bug/exploit fixes last year. Presumably development time is still extremely constrained. Hoping Mechanus drops in 3 days  |
