Best regards,

Yes, someone from the community is working on it. I am not sure what the current status is, though.

*raises hand guiltily* That'd be me. I'm digging my way out from under a backlog of work, but I expect to be caught up (-finally-) and providing that by this weekend.

Thanks a lot.
Hum just another question. I used hashsets in NWNx2 to create recordsets for my database acces from Neverwinter nights and I had a problem. The hashset was limited in space (255 characters ?).
I would like to know if it were envisaged to extend the capacity of data of these hashsets.

The limit is set in nwscript itself, by the 'spacer' that gets sent out with the hashset calls. The spacer is set to 255 bytes by default -- since that's enough for most usages, it will remain the same. However, you can increase the limit just by increasing the spacer size itself. (Once I'm in front of the computer tonight, I can give specifics on the filename and variable to change)

In the near future, the dependency on the spacer variable will be gone entirely. But that's something for NWNX4 1.08 or 1.09...

Whoo hoo!
It was pain having to pass a string ( at least 4 bytes? ) to activate a function that didn't return anything to the game. NWNXJr Binding functions.
I'm guessing this will also allow empty strings (""/void) to be passed as a value/parameter.
I'd prefer to update and set a value to an empty string rather than delete, and later reinsert a row - more than 8x quicker using the update method.
I cringe at the thought of "****" = null (like with 2DA's).
Oh well, future work.
Farm the source for the rest of us 
then take a break for a bit...
breaks over!
Cheers
