Major Plugin Updates

We are happy to announce significant updates to several of our plugins, bringing new features and enhancements to elevate your NWN2 experience. 

Some of these updates have been in pre-release on various online or test servers for over a month now. 
We are continuously exploring new ways to release and test updates to minimize the possibility of bugs. 

Stay tuned for more related information on our Discord server and in a future post here.

AspectManager (v1.4.5) (link)

This update may not introduce major changes, but I wanted to take this opportunity to highlight it. 

Version 1.4.5 is now live, featuring memory optimizations and a few new technical functions. 

As always, you can find detailed information on the plugin page.

MsgServer (v1.1.0) (link)

The MsgServer update introduces substantial new features. Following the addition of an improved login system with Heimdall, we continue to prioritize security with the integration of a new anticheat system.

While I won't go into extensive detail here, it’s important to note that some players have exploited the character creation and leveling system to gain illegal bonuses. The base NWN2 game lacks adequate checks for character creation, and the EnforceLegalCharacter option is neither comprehensive nor allows for the use of specific content.

The key advantage of the MsgServer anticheat system is that it activates only at potential points of exploitation, ensuring that any actions players take during character creation or leveling are legitimate. This flexibility allows you to freely grant additional ability points, feats, or other enhancements through scripts without flagging characters as illegal.

EnhancedFeatures (v1.0.2) (link)

We’re excited to announce significant improvements to the EnhancedFeatures plugin. 

This update introduces a new rule system for speed feats and skill feats, making configuration easier and minimizing performance issues.
This rule system is designed to be enhanced and applied in many more areas of the game.

Here are some of the key changes:

• Skill and Ability Customization: Easily change the Ability used by a skil using the rule system.
• Enhanced Area Creation: The CreateInstancedAreaFromSource function now allows for instanced area management and retains the parent area's ID.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Resolved issues with the SetFirstName function for areas.
  • Fixed the bug that allowed players to unequip magic items and retain bonuses after a logging in.
  • Fixed wildshape mechanics to ensure charges are correctly consumed when using specific enhancements.
  • Corrected the Save Throw mechanic; rolling a 1 now results in an autofail for Will and Reflex saves (unless with a feat like Slippery Mind).
  • Addressed issues with "Dodge AC Bonus vs. Damage Type" items.
  • Implemented a fix (with configurable behavior) for the spell loss of instinctive caster classes when any spell ability bonus is lost.
• Configurations:
  • Introduced the option to remove the AC Tumble bonus and Spellcraft SpellSave bonus.
  • Added the possiblity to choose the monkWeapon
  • WeaponFinesse can be now defined using the rule system
• Hooks: Added hooks for various events : gold changes, end of area loading and start of transitions.
• Spell Management Functions: A suite of almost 20 new functions to manage spellbook !

Thanks for reading ! I hope we will see you on the discord. See you soon.
