no log file

I also run xp64 and could not find the log files (I stared at that ini file like a red-headed stepcihild for about an hour)

I downloaded the 2.2.2 mad code hook library with no success.

would it be possible to compile nwnx in 64-bit mode to see if it would work?

I know nwn is no 64 bit, so this is a long shot, but worth a shot.

kinda bummed we don't have a good 64-bit solution yet with nwnx2 on the horizon.....

hmm, if that is the case maybe I won't be buying nwn2 after all. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. Sounds about right for a obsidian product though. MP support sure seems like an after thought. The announcement that the dm client won't ship with the product, but will need to be downloaded smells fishy too, like "oh yeah, we should add MP support to this now that release is 4 months away..."

Still would be interested in testing nwnx and the new madcodehook.dll with a 64-bit build of nwnx to see what happens.

I am also leary that nwn2 and particularly the server won't be threaded for dual-core or multi-processor systems. Although, maybe the OS will coop that for us.

Sorry for rubbing whatever sore spot I hit that set you off there....

On a side note, I just checked a few things and ran nwnx again, and ended up with a nwnx.txt file on d:\

Which is odd, considering nwn is set up on c: and in the normal location.

not sure if that helps any, but it seems nwnx did fire up. had normal entries...connected to db, etc.

As for the lack of multhreading server support unless the engine was rebuilt form the ground up...I got the impression that the engine WAS rebuilt from the ground up from dev comments. Synchronization is not as complicated as you make it sound, however, that is not the point of my comment. My point was, a 64-bit server would be nice, and I am a bit surprised it's not on the pallete.

Anyway

The GRAPHICS engine was built from the ground up but the core game engine is essentually unchanged.

so is NWNX4 going to support 64 bit? Just wondering...

Yes, but that really depends on madcodehook's author, not me. I bug him like every 2 or 3 weeks about it, so he'll eventually get it done Smile

I might have another case of no log file. Running version 7 on a mobility radion running xp. It works fine on my desktop, but on the laptop it launches the nwn2 server, but does not connect and no logs get written. Identical setup (except the laptop has spaces in it's path names, but that should not matter) I'm a "professional debugger" Smile

if you want me to track it down with a debug-enabled version

Is your laptop on 64 bits ?

Yeah. I'm running into the same problems. There IS probably an new madCHook.dll for us to use somewhere out there. I would really like a hint as to find it..
