<p>Which looking back is bizarre for me to say, as this is the <i>only</i> game I'm like that with. Most games I'm 100% only in for the single-player campaign and multiplayer can take a hike. NWN on the other hand is the other way around.</p>I honestly don't think I ever pursued any of the romances.

<p>No release date yet, but some FAQs:</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">kothoses wrote:</div><blockquote><p>From the FAQ </p>
<p>Will the server browser work again?
<br />
<b>Yes, the server browser has been rewritten so you can once again find servers for multiplayer. At this time the original NWN restrictions apply: The server host must be reachable at the external UDP address and port advertised through your NAT firewall.</b></p>
<p>Will 1.69 clients be able to connect to NWN:EE servers?
<br />
<b>No.</b> While save games and modules created in older versions of Neverwinter Nights are usable in Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition, NWN 1.69 players won't be able to connect to NWN:EE servers. Like all previous patches, we change the networking model continuously to allow us to implement new features and fix bugs. You will need the same NWN:EE client version to connect to an NWN:EE server.</p>
<p>Jason Knipe: The graphics engine has been updated so that everything runs through GLSL shaders, including the toolset. The shaders reproduce the old hardware T&L functionality from the original NWN,<b> and were not meant to add detail or fidelity that did not exist in the original. </b>However, this means that you can create and apply your own custom shaders in the game which opens up a wide variety of graphical possibilities.</p>
<p>Bernhard Stöckner: We've done a thorough security audit of the codebase, removing all known exploits and crash issues in the process. We have also addressed a great many engine, game and rules problems, as well as improved server performance significantly.</p>
<p><b>On the big feature front, we have done work as well. In addition to things mentioned elsewhere, you can expect to see a collection of new scripting commands and ini configuration flags, hak loading before character creation, area instancing, and much more as the beta will progress and bring in feedback.</b></p>
<p>Last, but not least, we've approached the NWNX developers and are actively helping them with a clean and complete rewrite of the codebase to the new release, so that the majority of server transitions will go as smooth as possible. Future patches will receive the same loving attention!</p>
<p>Graphically, other than the UI scaling, it looks nothing more than an ENB mod, there certainly wont be a massive jump in fidelity but if it gets a decent level of community support the cell shading functionality will make for some interesting possibilities for community created content to look really nice and crisp</p>
<p>I am hyped, but lets set expectations, Beamdog are just very committed modders in terms of what they can actually do, I do not get the impression they are reverse engineering the combat system for example, however there was one bit what was VERY interesting and I think @firewraith might be happy with, (Haks loading before character creation).</blockquote><p>link
