time till Layonara/nwn2

[silverdraco]

I'm thinking of making a new character when Layonara goes NWN2 in jan. 2007. I want that character to be a child of My current character. but to make it work I wanna know how much ingame years will pass untill Jan. 2007.
  I can calculate it myself but i need to make sure if the following is correct. 15 Layonara seconds = 1 RL second   1 min = 4 RL seconds   60 minutes. 1 hour = 4 RL minutes   24 hours, 1 day = 96 RL minutes (1 hour, 36 minutes)   7 days = 11 RL hours+   4 weeks = 44 RL hours+   12 months = 22 RL days+
 
  I read this in a post in this forum. (that post is here )
  let me know if it's correct so I can figure out when My current character can have a child (or should have had A child.)
  thanks for our help.

if the time table In my previous post is correct. Than there should be about 10 years between now and jan. 2007 when layonara hoopfully goes NWN2.    There are about 214 RL days(more or less) untill jan. 2007 so the calculation is 214:22=9,73 meaning it will be nearly 10 years of Ingame time until layonara goes NWN2 in jan. 2007. let me know if this calculation is correct. If it is, I might have to go think of an event in Sonya's past to get her child at a proper age for layonara/NWN2.   I'm not sure if i have to go re-submit a character for something like that?

You could calculate the game years between the crossover, sure, but there is no guarantee that it will pick up on the exact day or year that NWN left off at. It could start a long time into the future, where you'd be planning descendants instead of children. Which is the one I like, but regardless of the exact 'when', I don't think that there is currently a set game-time that Layo will be starting in the NWN2 version.

 I'm wel aware of the fact that layo might start far into the future. Still I wanna build in a safe.... something. just in case. Already have plenty of ideas for it.

 If it's fun for you to play, and nobody else get's burned because of it, I feel you're set. I really see time as having no meaning here and rarely will make a point of noting it's passing.

The official line is that we really don't know how much time will pass between the end of Layo on NWN1 and the beginning of Layo in NWN2. That there will be a jump forward once we do go to NWN2 is a given. Whether that jump is 5 minutes or 5 years or 500 years or 5000 years has yet to be determined.
  In other words, there's no answer that we can give you, because it hasn't been decided. Your new character can potentially be an acestor of your current one, but it's really quite impossible to say whether he/she can be a child of your current character.

thanks Dorganath. I guess I just have to stop myself for a while. I'm sorry but I can't help it wishing it was already time to play NWN2. I'll just have to try and slow myself down.
I just can't seem to help myself having so many idea's for characters.
I got a list back home with about 6 or 7 characters on it and basic words to help me create there background swiftly. :S
and then I got about 2 or 3 ideas still stuck in my head. :S All of them interesting characters if you ask me.

hmmm I think I gota stop now, might get exited again and talk to much about the ideas.

Theres the real time conversion.  The one you posted is incorrect.

However, an IG time conversion, as Dorg said, will have little to do with how much time passes between layo NWN1 and layo NWN2

 I could create one now But I wouldn't play them I think. I kinda like to play with Sonya DarkAngel right now. there is still a lot I want here to acomplise.
