@Pstemarie: there's nothing preventing anyone from using the nwn wiki, or anything else. People can post to dropbox, or their personal site, or provide a link on the wiki. But those things do not have visibility outside the existing community. It doesnt draw in new people. It guarantees an even faster slow decline of our games.

Those things have less guarantee than a general site such as the Vault, because they are dependent on single people. We already see this in the community when you try to get Vault content that is not hosted there. Content from several large projects in the nwn2 world is gone for exactly that reason (specifically some content from Bouncy Rock)

/mobile, so quote functionality doesn't work, sorry.

Since the current Vault post is 'ummm, things are completely borked and we're going to have to do this by hand', let me say that doesn't bode well.

First I go to here. I sign in. I click on forums. I then click on Neverwinter Nights. From here I click on Neverwinter Nights 1 Modding/nwn1 Mod Requests. I then select the only entry in here. Finally I decide to use the full size editor. At which point I get this (screenie).

You're scrolled down, so I can't see if you're logged into the forum. You need to log into the forum separately from the file area, but it's the same user name and password. I've never seen that error screen before, but I'll see what happens if I log out of the forum, but not from the file area.

Okay, I got that error screen when I attempted to reply to the equippable wings with the full editor while not being logged into the forum. I'm guessing that screen is designed to allow non-members to post messages on the forum by entering whatever screen name they want to use (as long as it's not already in use by a member), and doing the CAPTCHA to lower spam.

Scroll up to the "sign in" link on the upper right (or click the one I posted in my last message), and log into the forum, and all should be fine.

You mean I have to sign in twice!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, it's just one site. Sheesh!

Yes. I don't know why. Personally, I put it on "remember me", so I never have to sign in.

In fact, the Vault also requires you to sign in separately for the file area and for their own forums.

That's weird, I never had to register or loggin in twice, and if I log in on the file area and then click on the forums, I remain logged...

When I was going to write this post, I noticed that I had been logged out for no reason... sometimes sites just troll you.

There's a Monday Sep 17th status update on the vault from Maximus. Maybe we'll see it fixed soon?

That's what Kamal was referring to:

The update says " Getting this script working again is looking slim", so it doesn't seem so.

[Tchos]

True, but it also says there are some people reaching out to help in some way. Maybe that means more assistants who can help with manual updates.

Use Moddb where NWN has its own page.

Upload files quickly as downloads:

http://www.moddb.com...ights/downloads 

Or upload them and create your own page for the mod:

http://www.moddb.com...ter-nights/mods 

There's also the Neverwinter Nexus but that's already been linked too.

[Just a ghost]

I like the layout of that moddb a lot more, but it doesn't have any way to discriminate between even a module and a hak. That's a bit meager, isn't it?

<looking very put out...>

The Vault's flakey? Is it more than just missing me? I mean, is it a technical problem or is it the lack of a moderator?

I'll be jumping back in there in the next couple days (assuming I still have access) and clearing up any backlog I can handle. Also the requests I see in my PM queue.

Sorry for the "vacation" :-P

<...like a mangy cat>

[Tarot Redhand]

Rolo, apart from the message from last Monday that I quote below, there hadn't been any update for about a month.

Quote follows:

Sorry for the long lapse in news updates and file postings. Some of the internal scripts that power the site have stopped working, and I've been working to try to get them updated.

For more background, once a file is approved to be published, a script makes it public and publishes a news post with all the latest updates. Getting this script working again is looking slim, so I might just bypass it and make all files that are approved public, but that would make the front page require a manual news post.

A few people have reached out offering to help, so maybe that might be an option. I'll post again once there's a more concrete plan.

Ahh. That helps. Thanks Tarot.
I'll climb back into that saddle this week and see how I can help.
