Sorry for being ignorant, but can one of you give a synopsis of what this plugin does and what it could be used for?

Very short answer: it allows a server to intercept, act upon, block and/or log all player speech including tells, shouts, party channel, dm channel, and server messages.

Lol, couldn't help it, that's how I describe it in the SIMTools page.

So - an application of this plugin, would be to intercept and block all Party Chat and Tells from the Fugue Plane? This is what I have been looking to do.

No, SIMToolsa is a scriptset that uses the plugin. The plugin designates the script that fires, and allows some new things like muting and logging, the scriptset uses that capability to add all the functions it lists.

Ok - I understand that the Chat PlugIn just provides the vehicle for doing something like SIMTools. But, it appears that SIMTools is for NWN1 only. Is there a plan to make a SIMTools for NWN2?
Meanwhile, I will install the Chat PlugIn and play around with it.
Many Funky Thanks!

To elaborate, yes, especially now that I've finished the majority of work on my nwn1 pw. There's a final nwn1 update to SIMTools in the works, including around 30 new languages and a ton of new emotes and commands, and then I'll be designing a more GUI-oriented version for nwn2.

This function doesn't work. I'll fix it in the next build. |

Okay - I downloaded it and I installed it (copied the two files into the NWN Install folder). I also copied the dmb_chat and chat_script. So what next?
I never used the NWN1 version so I am completely in the dark. Any guidance would be most appreciated.
EDIT
I restarted the module and the Chat Plugin initialized correctly. I then went in the game and every line spoken there was a server message that said: mode=0 to=0x00000000 str=. It never said anything different.
I am completely a noob with this plugin so please assist.
