Hello Dasaria

Post by Holy Monkey »

Hello, my in-game name is Yort Rats and I have been playing for about the last week or so on Dasaria and am enjoying it a lot. I haven’t been able to play as much as I would like though as exams loom in the not too distant future, in about 3 – 4 weeks I should have a bit more free time. :)

This is my first time playing multiplayer NWN2 although I have gone through the OC and MoTB. This is also my first time RPing in about 10-12 years, but it is starting to come back to me. Back then it was a text based RPG game and having the visual environment in NWN2 sure is a welcome change. I used to do a bit of PnP DND about 20 years ago also with some Uni friends.

I chose Dasaria as it seemed a very friendly server and the warm welcome that I have received online and off has been a good justification for my decision. The first night that I played on Dasaria I could not find anyone and while the world is very well built it was a little boring. The second night someone invited me to group and that was a lot more fun. I haven’t had much time to play since then but when I do I would love if I would be able to do so in a group (large-or-small), after all a MULTI-player game should be shared, right?

About Yort:
Yort is a monk-based Lawful Good character and I am still fleshing out his backstory and will try and remember to post it when I have it done.

Yort is very much the wanderer and explorer who carries a walking staff which he leans on a lot but anyone who watches him in the wilds will notice he much prefers his hands and feet in battle. Fighting is an art-form for the pursuit of perfection and an experience which encourages his personal and spiritual growth although right now he is going through a spiritual crisis and is exploring the need to dedicate himself more fully to a deity, he currently honours Tharon as the ultimate warrior and beacon of honour in combat but is feeling the need for a deeper relationship.


I wonder if I could ask the forum members a question:
Are there any regular running groups that I could be joining and if so how do I go about finding out about them?

I am probably able to log in between 10am-3pm at most one weekday per week and perhaps a couple of nights (9pm-midnight) per week in my local time, Australian East Coast. There is a little flexibility in these times. This translates to:
GMT
midnight-5am once per week and 11am-2pm a few times per week
EST (if you are in daylight savings atm)
8pm-1am once per week and 7am-10am a few times per week

I saw that there is a group called “Monday Knights with DM Wired” which is probably okay for my playtime. Also I saw some posts speaking of a new group forming with “The eUmenides eXperience” which might be a possible match for my playtimes. Are these groups open for anyone to join, is there a level limit? What is the best way to find this out and/or get in contact?

One other thing more technically related.

I have been running the single player game with Tony_K's AI and Charlie's UI and have gotten used to them. Is it okay to leave these in my override folder or would that interfere with the paks downloaded from Dasaria.

Would they even work on Dasaria?

Welcome to Dasaria, HM.

I'm sure the DMs will see your inquiry about joining one of their groups and comment. If you don't hear anything in the next few days, you should PM Wired or DM Eumenides. They are the DMs running the two groups in question. There is also talk of a Euro group forming - viewtopic.php?f=34&t=9720.

You should not have anything in your override folder when playing online. It can cause trouble for yourself and the rest of the server.

Please keep your /override directory empty when playing on our server. It should be ignored in the current patchlevel, but there's always the possibility of your client doing something or transmitting something that causes issues for the server, other players, or the DMs.

Fortunately for you, Tony K's AI is already part of the SOZ NPC AI which is running on our server.
