NWN Server Controls

Well the following news, which comes from The NWN Vault, doesn't mean a whole lot to me, but it might be useful to you, so here it is:

Yes, the dedicated server executable will be very similar to the Quake server model. A machine running a dedicated server doesn't need a 3d video card.

Based on the server that we have developed so far (the one that I'm currently swearing at right now ... ;]), the dedicated server will only use a text-based interface. We intend on providing a "server monitor" client for mucking around with the server options (in case you're really not keen on using configuration files and command lines).

Well there you have it, some information on how the server will work for Neverwinter Nights, the game that many former MEO fans hope to make Arda Nights out of.
