Today I finished first tests of this system.
It allows an admin/DM to edit NPC dialogues using web-based editor (featured in PW Toolkit) and apply these changes on-line without updating the module or restarting the server.
It features caching and link nodes support.
At some point in the future I'll also use conditional/action scripts written in Ruby (using NWNX Ruby).

Virusman, brilliant work!

I realize this post is dated but I figured I would try and bring it back from the dead.

I started working towards database driven conversations with NWNx4 and have hit a road block. Would you be willing to share some of your implementation or be able to point me towards some further reading?

I am most interested in how you were able to compile the conversation script into a format usable by the server. Is there an external binary that allows for this? As in...Process dynamically generates conversation script then calls said binary to compile it?

No, the scripts are written in NWRuby - a Ruby programming language with all NWScript functions imported into it.
Since it's an interpreted language, no compilation is necessary.
Here is the link to NWNX4 Ruby plugin:
