To hak or not to Hak

Once I got my brain together and decided " hey why not throw a whole lot of your spare time into getting another NWN server up". I came to my first fork in the road of mod making... do I want to use haks, if so what haks do I want to use? Now mind you I already know I plan on making a high magic world with limits on the ac and enchantments,yes I know I must keep some balance of some sorts. So my first thought was, how do I set a balance in a high magic world? As usual my first thought was chaos, but I think for this it may work. Now in this situation I am gonna substitute the PRC for chaos , I know it wasn't made to be balanced, it was made to offer choices. So hopefully any readers to this blog will leave any suggestions as to any major changes to the PRC to bring some type of balance. In the meantime i figure I will do enough play testing of each class to get the best possible playing experience for anyone playing on my server.

Oh and I am gonna use the cep 2.3 as well with the merge hak for both systems.

I also know I am going to post under the social setting for nwn as I found a number of clothing haks I am currently merging into my existing merge hak. I want to offer a large number of options to my players for appearances for clothing armor and weapons.

Personally I don't think I could build a server without haks, I would get bored too quickly.

Return to neverwinter

I once ran a server with two other people a while back. well things didn't go so well and the server went down and since i have tried to put a couple of servers with no success . so i recently started work on a remake of my old server.

i spent the past few years honing my skills with scripting, and hak work, and story and quest making. so this time i will be working on the mod alone. i found every time i tried working with others to get my final product out, but every time i do this i never get the product i wanted.

in addition i think a number of the people that were major factors in bringing the server down no longer play and are long gone from playing. so hopefully i can find a number of players that will enjoy my vision.
