New Server Setup

Xilanthus

Hi Guys,

First off, it's been almost 10 years since I set up an NWN Server, so be gentle with me.

I've secured a hosted game server for NWN and installed NWN v1.69.
The service shows the game RUNNING



However, it is not showing up in the NWN Multiplayer Server Listing.
Below is a copy of my nwnplayer.ini. Do you see anything wrong or missing?

Are you using NWN Diamond or NWN:EE?

Also there is a 'public' option, either on command line or check box (for windows server).

-publicserver 1

The hosted server is supposed to be NWN:EE. Is there a quick way to determine for sure?
In the modules folder, there is "Contest Of Champions 0492.mod"
If not, I have FTP access to the server, so I can swap files out. I just want to make sure first.

I will have this added to the startup command. Thanks!

You say "I've secured a hosted game server for NWN and installed NWN v1.69." and now "The hosted server is supposed to be NWN:EE"

NWN v1.69 and NWN:EE servers are incompatible.

Very Good point - I just put a ticket in with the hosting provider because this was definitely supposed to be NWN:EE.

I can setup linux servers on linux vps if you need help. They don't cost much. I don't use nwnx . I have a master control script that is a hidden treasure someone made long time ago for server admins.
