Problem fixed. Apparently the person who wrote the OnModuleLoad script (that included Leto code) wrote some scripting that specifically pointed to the C: drive. The new server is on the D: drive. Like Linux, in Windows you can type \ or / and it will reference the root of the current drive. There is NO reason to point it to a specific drive unless you have a good reason to do so. Now that this has been fixed, and won't bite us again, I'm going to try to hunt down the person who did this and beat them severely. I've spent weeks trying to figure out what was going on, and I'm NOT happy. |

The good reason to do so, is that the default installation is on the C drive of NwN, and without editing letoscript const that point to such references, leto will break, crash, etc. Everyone releases this generally using the default installation path. Therefore, if you DONT use the default path, then you must update it in the scripts, or again no edits, NOTHING will work. |

Well, the good news is that I got the server finished and shipped off to its permanent home. I understand using the default installation path. However, in this case it was under the same directory structure, just on a different drive. It still makes no sense to reference C:/ instead of /. There's no reason to make it more specific than you have to. That's just bad coding practice. |
