Shattered Lands – Scars of Time (NWN-1.69) ( NEW PW )
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=gameworld.Detail&id=1356

Shattered Lands, is based in Forgotten Realms, and is a server where most play styles are welcome. The server is meant for fun and relaxation with guidelines, rather than rules. It has been designed around a role-playing or acting concept, but “power-gamers” are welcome, so long as they are respectful to the community, and are even encouraged to participate; as long as they bring something to the metaphorically placed table.

The setting takes place in Faerun, as mentioned above, along the High Ice glacier, which for unknown reasons to the random traveler, has had a path cut through the ice, where rumors of vast gold, artifacts, and even tales of ancient ruins of Netheril await. It is said that the land beyond the ice, is known as the “Shattered Lands”, and has had native residents for a much, much, longer a time, than the path has been opened to Greater Faerun. A path that is rumored to only have been accessible for some estimated five hundred years. These estimates come from the Sheragrad nomads, who have only discovered this peculiar region in the last one hundred years.

The Gether Caravans have taken it upon themselves to aid travelers through the Anauroch desert, to the nomadic camp, and even provide them with a small boon so as to keep them safe during their first few travels, for reasons unknown. The traveler arrives in the desert, the caravans pulling near the mines; the nomadic camp lay shortly off to the West. Their destiny lay in their own hands.

Advanced Script Compiler for NWN2 By Skywing
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2PlugIns.Detail&id=99

This project includes a NWN2 toolset plugin that adds an improved script compiler (based on Edward T. Smith’s nwnsnsscomp) to the NWN2 toolset. The compiler is seamlessly integrated and automatically used when compiling scripts from the toolset. Features include better code generation, better warnings and error messages, and the ability to receive more than one compile error at once.

Additionally, an improved console script compiler (replacing nwnnsscomp) is also included, with various bugfixes and improvements over nwnnsscomp. In particular, NWN1 datafiles aren’t required anymore for the console compiler, and nwscript.nss can be loaded from the game zip files. Various fixes are also made to ensure that scripts compiled with the console compiler are also compileable by the stock script compiler.
