I was under the impression this one was supposed to come relatively quickly.... Is it close?
Thanks,

Is there a wish list thread for 1.05 (or other future patches)? |

1.05 is just around the corner, though that corner may move a bit. We expanded the 1.05 patch just a bit (obviously) and some of the things we threw in there were a little more difficult to implement than we expected.
I am working on trying to get you a sneak peek at the patch notes but so far I haven't been able to get my hands on them.
*lowers voice*
But here's what I have seen:
1. WASD turn rate has been decreased by 50%
2. Group select will now enable players and DMs to select and control companions/creatures externally - without having to possess them - sorta like an RTS
3. GetIsPartyTransition() is fixed
4. Chat window should no longer clear during transitions
5. NWNX2 Script hooks added
6. 2DA LABEL vs. STRREF column change implemented
7. Armorrulestats.2da has been extended beyond the 255 row limit
There are many, many more fixes in the 1.05 patch but this is a good list to start with.Edited By Rob McGinnis on 02/21/07 23:22 |

Sounds excellent, especially the thing about the chat window. |

Change N2 seem the most important change about how NWN2 is going to be played. More BG like. Great news! |

Thanks for the sneak peak.
I am still hoping for spell fixes, new feats, abilities, etc. though.
And before that, any news of autodownload progress, size decrease for downloads, improved toolset user friendlyness, fixed multiplayer issues, etc. _________________ "An eternity of suffering is nothing compared to a single lifetime of mediocrity."

We are combing over the spell and feat issues in QA now to get the details.
The other stuff is pretty huge and is/will take a while. 1.06 will have some MP fixes. We are tearing apart some modules to see what we can do with the crashes.
The toolset may have a little surprise in it for 1.05, but it may be delayed for a bit.. not sure.
We are making a change to let PW owners place two strings into their .ini file that will point players to a URL to get their PWC files. This will be implemented in 1.05 and the dressed up dedicated server UI will come later. We figured it was more important that you could give the URL than to wait to have everything look purdy.
So.. we just keep working away here. The big stuff is not easy to implement but, given time...

Would be sweet if you could optimize the code a bit.
Dunno, have one of your wiz-programmers look at some 2 pages of code each day, let them study the code, see if there are any blatant ressource swallowing coding.

Huh? Last I heard, this was the big thing of patch 1.05.
Well, I hope they fix at least a lot of the smaller issues...like Blackguard's Aura of Despair affecting everyone and the loss of bonus spells gained from Nymph Cloaks during area transition. |

Will group select be functional from the keyboard as well? The "=" key (select whole party) was probably the button I pressed most playing BG2. |

Would be nice to be able to actually do some focus fire on the run without the crazy "pause+finger yoga+unpause" crap it takes now.  |
