Case

I found the best way to get into the game was to play through the tutorial. Print that off and run through everything in there. It's VERY helpful. Cheers,

Thanks for the clarification, I was wondering what the actual History was. Leave it to Hollywood to create its own history Movie still looks pretty interesting though. Cheers!

It does matter what game you have as they aren't compatible in MP. Most of us have many different versions. Currently I have UC and UC:AWA installed. The most recent version out is UCSE (Universal Combat: Special Edition). Currently, there is a test pre-season of a MP tournament of sorts called ' Fleet Action ' and we are using UC:AWA for matches in that. Let us know if you have any other questions, and check your PM's. You will probably get a bit of spam from some of the Fleets trying to recruit you Cheers!

Interceptor and recon... hmm... Have a look here . Specifically, take a quick read through our charter. As Ben stated most MP takes place from within the fleets as organized matches and Fleet practice sessions. PM me if you want more info.

ya, personally, I am holding off on a video card upgrade for a while, likely next fall. Right now just feels like a bad time to upgrade with the new dx10 cards just over the horizon. Not that I will be upgrading to a top of the line card when I do, but I am hoping to get a decent entry level dx10 card by then...

This is helpful. Basically helps you pick the best card in your budget that you are looking to spend.

Surprised this one hasn't been mentioned yet, looks pretty good. I remember a few years ago a buddy at work telling me this story, 300 hundred Spartans vs. one million Persians.

The term 'dead-stick' refers to landing without power (flame-out or engine stalled...), it is a bit misleading. Wolferz, you are pretty much correct. Without power any high-performance jet is in trouble, but is able to fly as long as they maintain airspeed. Found this, Simhq has a discussion on this as well. And here is a discussion about deadstick landings in general.

Good review. Some of his criticisms of the game weren't valid, but were understandable considering he only played it for 'about 5 hours', so he is definitely not going to be able to play the game properly after that much time with it. The one suggestion he had that I thought would be excellent is dual-monitor support. This would greatly add to the playability of the game I believe. Cheers,

Thanks $ilk. I just registered under the same forum name as here. Cheers!

I am currently not very far along as I have had problems with the 'unable to save, disk space low, bug'. I think I have it sorted out now and should start to make some progress as I am only at the 'Weeping Inn'? Cheers! p.s. $ilk, I look forward to roaming around your PW once it is done (or released to the public). The image posted is looking good. Do you have any screenshots in-game, or in-toolset of your areas?

Thanks for the reply Wolferz. I won't bother putting it on my 'to buy' list. Cheers!

I doubt the extra gig will allow you to play at higher settings. I am probably lowering my shadows back to none. Last night I played outdoors for a bit and it was a bit slow. I am ok with playing it on low settings for now, and I will crank everything up later after an upgrade. This is a game that should likely be on my hard drive for a long time (assuming there is as much user created content as NWN1).

Hey Sho, Ya, my system specs in my profile are up to date, so, as you can see, I don't have a very high-end PC right now. I probably won't upgrade until sometime next year. Here are the settings it autodetected for me: http://www.rowlinson.ca/images/nwngraphics.gif I update the shadows from none to low, and the texture res from low to medium. I will test some more and see how this works for me.

Just created account. First Name: Commander Last Name: Case Cheers!

I just picked it up today. Only had time to get it installed and play for about 5 minutes with a pre-created character. Looks nice, seems to run fine on my rig. I probably won't have much time for a bit to give it a real evaluation, but I found this thread. http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewt...06398&forum=110

Is there a way in your profile (on Airset) to specify which game versions you have available to play? It would help to coordinate games as well. I know that in Wraith Fleet, some members have AWA and some only plain UC. Cheers!

Baby is here! Both Mommy and baby are doing well. We had a baby boy that we named Morgan. He was born at 3:35PM yesterday and weighed 8lbs. 12 1/2oz. and was 20" long. Here are a few shots of him and his big sister: http://www.rowlinson.ca/morgan/imgp3945.jpg http://www.rowlinson.ca/morgan/imgp3969.jpg http://www.rowlinson.ca/morgan/imgp3971.jpg

So, my wife's planned C-section is this Wednesday. I would appreciate your thoughts/prayers at this time. I know that this is a pretty common method of giving birth, but it is still nerve-racking for us. I will report back as soon as I can with the 'detailed specs' of the new addition to the family. Cheers!

So, Has anyone tried this one yet? Could we get some opinions? It looks like the only demo available right now is for an older version, and I wanted some thoughts on how this new release is? Cheers!

There is a Chaotic Evil and a Lawful Good version. It sounds like you have a lot more control over you party members this time around.

Ditto, I have played around a little with the pre-release toolset, and it is pretty impressive. Search around on the NWN2 forums to see what some people have already created with the toolset, it's quite nice.

I just wanted to confirm Ben's posting above. Wraith Fleet really doesn't have rules and reg's that will get in the way of having a good time, and learning A LOT about this game, way more so than just playing on your own. If you have any questions about Wraith, please post here, or PM me. I would be glad to answer any questions to help you choose a fleet. Also, due to our low membership right now, Wraith Fleet is a good place for you if you are looking for rapid advancement through the ranks. Looking forward to your decision,

Commander Eon Hawk, I would like to invite you to consider Wraith Fleet as your future home. Wraith Fleet is currently in the process of rebuilding it's membership, and we would be glad to have you aboard. Please see our Charter for more detailed public information. If you have the time we should be able to get you ramped up to the proper security clearance in order to be involved with the Fleet Action season (we are currently running a 'test' FA season right now). So please, consider your options carefully, as once you proceed done one path, you can't return. Please let us know if you have any questions, and when you decide, you can apply in the Fleet DB and you can begin your training. Cheers!

[report] From: Fleet Commander Case To: Tacops Commander Randy Karynia Subject: Wraith Special Operations Mission - TrueLight I am pleased to report the complete success of mission TrueLight. Commanders Ixos, Ben Zwycky, and myself departed from the Eterna station inbound to the planet in the Rovarix region to deploy a sabotage team against the Insurgent base there. This tactical plan was developed by Strategic Commander Zwycky and flawlessly executed by all members. I have promoted Commander Ixos to security level 4 after his excellent performance during the course of this mission. The following ships were utilized for this mission: Violon Heavy Carrier - Strategic Commander Ben Zwycky Starcruiser Heavy Cruiser - Commander Ixos Tarin Mk1 Armed Transport - Strategic Commander Case The Violon carrier piloted by Ben Zwycky cloaked and entered the Rovarix region undetected, while Ixos proceeded to the jumpgate and awaited for a situation report from Zwycky. I stayed within range of the Eterna's station defenses to ensure my transport remained protected. After jumping into the Rovarix system, Ben Zwycky proceeded to orbit the planet while reporting on the presence of two Interdictor medium fighters patrolling the space around the starstation Antilles. Once Ben was in position, he reported that he was still undetected by the patrolling fighters. I then proceeded to jump to Ixos, and then jump to the hostile Rovarix system. Ixos followed me in immediately to provide fire support. At this point, Ben de-cloaked, and I jumped to the GVC-Svoboda and proceeded to deploy our sabotage team. After the successful deployment of the sabotage team, I plotted a course back to the Eterna station, where I arrived safely without damage. During the course of this mission, three Interdictor medium fighters were destroyed. Commander Ixos claimed one kill, and Strategic Commander Ben Zwycky claimed two kills. With the success of this mission, the Insurgents will be unable to use their cloaking technology until they find out what we have done and fix the damage done by our sabotage team. I recommend that we take full advantage of this temporary weakness before it can be corrected. [end report]
