I think I've almost completed porting the Minimal Network Extender to NWNX4.. it basically lets you send stuff over the network using sockets. Personally, I'm using it to call on java stuff.

Once I've got it all working, should I send it to someone here so it's availible to other folks?

(Oh, and by the way, my C++ is rusty as hell, since I've been in java land for the past 6 years.. but it seems to work. It's not real pretty.. and the fact that it's been ported twice now surely doesn't help anything... but ugly code is (usually) better than no code.)

Since you are going to use it yourself, are you also planning to support it a bit, e.g. when users of your plugin have questions ? In that case, we could set up a page in the "contributions" sections for you. A small documentation would also be very good.

I can provide some documentation, but the stuff wasn't real documented when I got it, and I kind of only did what it took to get it working. I don't really plan on doing much with it beyond what's already going on in it.... but I can provide some support if folks have questions about it (just be prepared for answers like, "I have no idea why it does that." Wink ).

Something worth noting though, the MNXJ, Java API plugin now works as well, as it basically just uses MNX to talk to NWN.

I was successfully driving bugbears around in NWN2 using java stuff.
