NWN & Roger Wilco

[BluWolf]

I have done very little online gaming in my life and it looks like NWN has finally done me in. I played my first online session Saturday with 5 people from 5 different states. We sucked and it took us awhile to get things going but I have seen the potential.

The biggest problem I have however is the crappy world of chat. I've never been into it. I hate it and I really don't want to deal with it.

So have any of you tried using Roger Wilco?? Any impressions?

For those of you who don't know what I am reffering to try this link;

There is an extensive discussion of this subject at the NW Community boards at the Bioware web site. I'm too lazy to track down the exact link but go here: http://nwn.bioware.com/forums/ and search for Roger Wilco.

Apparently it is working, at least for some users.

I havn't tried Roger Wilco yet, but Game Voice, which is probably very similar, and not with NWN but Starcraft, but the principle should be the same and it should definitely work.

Only thing you need is a decent sound card (not just a crappy low end sound blaster), because you must be able to hear multiple sources at the same time.

Otherwise it just slows down your machine a bit, so if you are not already at the minimum requirements for NWN, there should be no problem.

On the other hand, chatting and using the emotion animations to enhance your roleplay is one of the fun parts of the game.

Bye

Use roger wilco on NWN. No problems except really need voice activation on as havent found a key that NWN doesnt need. Only downloaded RW about a month ago so i assume im using the latest version.
