Long live the Red Caps!  ;D

Hope you and your loved ones are doing well!

As mentioned, NWN is available for iPad, but not sure about your generation, should probably tell you if you try to purchase it, but not certain. Not sure about the experience roleplaying with it either but hey you never know.

Pop on by the Discord if you wanna catch up more!

You really need to check it out.  They've been updating some of the maps and they are gorgeous.

Good to hear from you Guardian!

Also you don't need a PC to play it anymore. I believe you can play it on a tablet (iPad?)

Hello!  I remember you.  Ayla is long gone, but Ferrit is still kicking, and a few others.

I think I might remember Karn.  Your player name definitely seems familiar.  I mostly play Xiao Lin, a half-elf monk.  He was also around many years ago, and made a recent return.

I am also one of the ones who often plays with Silverblades, during the times he mentioned.  Hope to see you in-game sometime.

Layonara Server / Anniversary Bonus Event
« on: June 12, 2017, 09:58:31 pm »
Greetings Layonara CommunitySome of you may know that Neverwinter Nights turned 15 this year. Most of you may not know, however, that the NWN incarnation of Layonara also turns 15 in just a couple of weeks.In observance of these major milestones, we will be holding an anniversary Bonus Event, starting Saturday, June 24th and running for about a month. During this period, XP, Fortune and gold drops will all be doubled. As with previous bonus events, the doubling of XP and Fortune will also apply to GM rewards for quests and RP.This event overlaps with another anniversary event targeted at the greater NWN community known as the Neverwinter Nights Player Appreciation Days (NWPAD). The details of the event are somewhat uncertain as yet, but if anyone wants to keep up with the news on NWPAD, here’s a link:https://neverwintervault.org/comment/31548Once we have something more definite on that schedule, we’ll be sure to update everyone with the details.Thanks to everyone who has played here over the last 15 years!

General Discussion / Considering a return
« on: June 16, 2015, 08:34:43 am »
So its been a few years but having never found a better server for RP by both players and DM's alike I am considering a return.I am well all is said and done butt a** lazy though so have a few questions....Are my characters still avilable and if so can I play them or will I need to create new ones?Is the stuff my characters still had still accessable by them?  Not expecting them to have retained a house or anything, more bank accounts and storage.Where/how is the best way to discover what has been happening while I was away.  I'm dyslexic so a wall of forum posts will make me go watch TV instead :D

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Travel within Game
« on: March 30, 2015, 03:02:07 pm »
The new pawnshop quest system(which I think is great) has made me more aware of how difficult travel can be to some locales in the game. A package delivery to Fort Thunder comes to mind. It would seem the only options are to fight, go invisible, or forego the trip. Possibly another option could be added in selected cities/routes .Add a  'caravan'(portal) in say  for example Arnex and Fort Thunder. It would, I think  cost coin for a character ( could a party go ?) to use this option. I don't know if the coding would allow such  but it would be interesting if this caravan ( portal) was not 100%  foolproof :Perhaps there would be a 5 0r 10% chance that it 'fails' .. in which case you are then ported to an area to face the bandits or whatever the threat might be (possibly with some NPC 'caravan guards' as friendly.This is similar to the old Baldurs Gate 1 area transition routine.I will admit I have no insight to the coding involved , or even possible or the level of interest, but there it is.Thanks

Layonara Server / Version 3.55 is online!
« on: March 27, 2015, 06:20:21 pm »

Version 3.55 is online!

Just a small update which includes the new Quickbar saving system.

Fixes:

  • Fixed a bug which would have new players' journals not being initialized properly

  • Fixed a typo in introductory text in initial area

  • When using the spellbook system, if the current spell in the spell slot is the same as the one that gets restored there and it's not used up yet then keep it unused

  • Make the smokeable pipeweed awarded in the adventuring kits for the RNQ to be Herbal and thus give benefits

Additions:

    [li]

    New Quickbar Saving/Restore System, type =c qb or read this.[/li][/list]

Other updates:

  • Few performance improvements here and there

  • Cleaned up on client enter a bit more

Layonara Server / Version 3.54 is online!
« on: March 21, 2015, 01:14:42 am »

Version 3.54 is online!

A lot of performance improvements under the hood that probably wouldn't excite you much and a few new goodies.

Fixes:

  • Complete reworking of rest logic. No more double messages, nicer coloured feedback. Interrupted rests now only require player level/5 minutes before another rest. So a Level 15 would only have to wait 3 minutes. Any interrupted rests now reset the player's HP to what it was before resting. DMs can now drop a safe rest tent anywhere with =c makeplc dm_safe_rest

  • Fixed the spell tracking system to be much more efficient. Also spells should cast a fractionally quicker time

  • If a player is bound to a no longer existing bindstone then set it to Center

  • North Point Craft Hall stairs should no longer get players stuck

  • Fixed an issue with the Wildflower Heaven token.

  • Crafting Top 10 now shows active players in last 90 days in the top 10 not just those that have recently crafted (and gained crafting XP).

  • Server status now keeps a better track of players logged in instead of a lag before they're off it should be fairly immediate (well within the 1 minute refresh)

Additions:

    [li]

    Updated Cave of the Snake on Dregar[/li][li]

    New Spellbook Saving/Restore System, type =c sb or read this.[/li][/list]

Other updates:

  • Significant reworking of the database. I'd get into the nitty gritty but I doubt many people would be interested.

  • Move some variables from the database to the Gem of Rememberance

  • More performance improvements in many areas, crafting, death, logging in

Also thank Guardian-452 for the update area, hopefully more to come!

Ask A Gamemaster / Bird Messages: Free for Rangers/Druids?
« on: March 14, 2015, 05:26:56 pm »
Even though the paltry sum of 25gp is hardly bank busting for bird messages, I was wondering if it would be an appropriate nod to rangers, druids and clerics with animal domains to be able to send these for free and if it would be too much trouble coding for the system to check that.  I could imagine specifically the Bird Lord being exempt from paying the falconeer prices for birds.  Maybe though this true could be RPed as donations to the Layonara Bird Preservation Fund or some nature instead of to the Falconeer.

Layonara Server / Version 3.52 is online!
« on: March 05, 2015, 10:33:03 am »

Version 3.52 is online!

Was going to do this tonight but the server was empty and despite not being able to get in game until later I've faith in my changes! (Read: everything's going to be broken) Couple of tweaks and bug fixes as the dust settles on the big update.

Fixes:

  • Fixed the player list showing Someone even after introduced

  • Delvers should not have been destroying weapons in the Mistone Deep

  • Fixed CNR skins not being created on occasion

  • Restored Pawn Shop to Fort Miritix

  • Added mangled titanium as a biproduct to failed arrowheads

  • Fixed a bug that was creating more RNQs than 6.

Additions:

    [li]

    If an RNQ NPC is awaiting a yes/no answer and the player says neither (or she doesn't understand) then re ask the question[/li][/list]

    [li]

    Cleaned up a bit of the verbiage used for languages. [/li][li]

    Make sure GMs always see translated versions of language usage[/li][/list]

    Other updates:

    • More performance improvements, removed some unneeded scripts and reworked some persistent storage

    • No longer store the Layonara Date/Time on the db, instead we convert on the fly. 

    • Limit the storage log to only show the last 50 additions/removals. If more is needed for whatever reason let me know but it's a significant toll on the system.

    • The furniture system would loop through 40 times trying to add 5 new pieces of furniture, instead stop the loop at the count of furniture they have instead of the MAX 200. Bit of a performance increase.

Layonara Server / Version 3.51 is online!
« on: March 01, 2015, 04:42:46 pm »

Version 3.51 is online!

This was a quick fix I updated with yesterday (and a hotfix on Friday) that I didn't get the chance to summarize the small details out.

Fixes:

  • Fixed a bug that had CNR loading really slow.

  • Fixed a bug with messages through the web site to characters not functioning

  • Fixed a critical bug with inserting containers into crates/chests

  • Allow for the new adventuring kits to be stored in banks or furniture

  • A couple RNQ (Random NPC Quest) tweaks and performance improvements

Additions:

    [li]

    Consecrate symbol no longer destroys the old amulet and creates a copy of the properties on the ugly yellow thing. It simply updates the tag properly and changes the name to include (Consecrated)[/li][/list]

    [li]

    Created a new journal book called A Book of Fixes and moved some of the actions to there.[/li][li]

    Introduced a fix to the ultravision, true seeing and darkness bug where after it wears off you couldn't see any players any more. This was only corrected with a relog before but now you can just use =c fixuvbug[/li][li]

    The old emote wand used to be used to save a ton of variables related to spell casting but those vars were moved to the gem of rememberance. A new function replaces the wand with a clean one if they have one.[/li][/list]

    Other updates:

    • More db performance improvements

    • Integrated new incremental backup system with no noticeable impact on the NWN server
