Okay.. to clear some items up..
I plan on DMing this one.. if nothing else but as an experiment with live players. The mod will run itself without one but If we have more than 4 players I can augment the encounters as GM. I will not be playing though as a character.
Also the version linked above does have a hak with it.. and that's the version I plan on running.. easy enough to download, unzip and move the files over. The module itself is NWN basic so no Prestige Classes, etc..
I will post here when I bring the server up and I will be Password Protecting it..
No, the guy running the server does not have to DM.. he just runs the server process from his PC. In fact i will be running the dedicated Server and then also running the DM Client from my PC... that way if I have to quit for any reason as DM I can leave the server up and running..
Server Vault is a great way to prevent cheating and leveling.. and it also allows for concistency among a group of players.. they will adventure together and as long as the server is the same they can maintain advancement. I'd love to think this would evolve into unscripted mods in the future that we have a few trained DMs to run. I've considered taking the DM classes over at NWConnections, but life gets in the way too often.
