There is only one question left in my mind..
Will Neverwinter Nights still survive if the nwvault.ign.com went down (for whatever reason)?

That's a question that everyone should look at, not to be skeptic or cynical, but prepared for the worst...

For in life, one can only hope for the best, but should always expect the worst, really...

As Borden has said, the Vault or IGN, rely upon advertising, of which there is no short supply! The NWVault has in the past been (and may well still be) the busiest of all the game Vaults.

I see no reason why it would be going anywhere for a very long time. IGN appear to be a strong company. The problems encountered at this time indicate this to be the case, they are moving to a new data server. It is likely they need more space because of their growing business.

As Web says, if there were no NWVault, there'd be be no NWN - it is the custom content and modules by the community that make NWN (1 & 2) what it is today.

However, I have no worries or fears concerning the NWVault .

The vault has started posting new files again!

They are not appearing on the front page yet, but you can access them from the "New Releases" pages:

I sent him the email, we shall see how this goes...

What does he mean by:  "We are still chasing down the kobolds in the Vault," ???

Replace the word "kobolds" with the word "bugs".

Server migrations are always messy, but especially so when you try to move dynamic content off a really old server onto a really new one.

Dynamic content...

LOL!

[UrkOfGreyhawk]

Laugh if you want, Guile. But in 1999 when the vault network was merged under IGN (then Snowball) it was cutting edge. Now... not so much. And therin lies the rub. It's hard to get an obsolete CMS to run on modern hardware, but it's even harder to try to manually migrate tens of thousands of files, comments, ratings, and users into a whole new one.

As of 11 Hours later, still no response (this is my 4th email to him in 2 weeks BTW)...

He has yet to answer any of them as of yet...

Shame it is still a heap of mostly non-current information...

Also that it constantly switches to NWN2 is irritating...

I will try to contact them and see if I can help...

Especially the PW's listed, most of them are waaaaay offline....

...but there are other sections that need manual editing...

Also the list to the right with "top scripts" and so on...it still doesn't show the top ones...maybe its latest ones or something...

@_Guile - I've sent a mail off to BTP with a copy of your profile url. I've explained that your password needs resetting. It is likely that he is up to his eyes in mails and Vault gremlins. Hopefully his mail is working and you should get a PW reset through the mail from him soon.

_guile, just in case, try and clear your cache and then try to log in again. If that still does not work, do as BTP advised in his mail to you and contact him again.

*fingers crossed for you*
