So, it seems that this is the end of Amia 2?

Yes.

The situation with the NWN2 server is pretty hopeless. There's no module to edit, no instructions, no know-how; just a buggy, empty server. I have sent Edward two mails explaining that this isn't working, but haven't got any reply for two weeks now. This is definitely not the way to pass on a project, but that's all water under the bridge now.

I am afraid it's time to accept that Amia doesn't go NWN2 and close the forums saying so. It's a shame of all the work that was put in it, not just by Kung but also by the area designers. I assume they will be quite disappointed, but I don't know what else to do. I wish I could put the module up for download so people could try to get it working, but there's only a map with resources and I don't have a clue how to build a module from that.

So, sorry for the bad news, but this seems to be as far as it went.

R.I.P.

it was fun while it lasted and a pity it had to go this way.

R.I.P indeed though this is the right thing to do now.

A pity, but there's nothing wrong with Amia being a NWN 1 only world.

Seeing the (amount of) emotions generated by this thread I think we're done with it anyway.

I am archiving the Amia II forums, btw.

Rightyo, a pity it didn't work out.

Yush. Maybe I'll get the module one day.

I never planned on going to NWN 2 Amia since the tool set was crap and way too complex for most people to work properly. I know a number of people spent tons of time working on it though and I feel for them. It sucks to put in so much effort into something and watch it fall apart anyway.

Just wait for NWN 3 then? *shrug*

O, I got the AmiaII module from Kung. If anyone wants to toy around with it: be our guest. Perhaps it can be put to good use in an alternative way. It's 200 Mb, so I only deliver on demand/PM.

We tried.
But I think what we learned was, NWN1 is just simply a more functional system than working with NWN2, for designers and players alike.

It's still a shame. The screenshots from Daggerford looked lovely.

Yes it is, I have the module and have meant to go through it and sort certain things out and thought about starting the project up again, but unfortunatly my deteriorating health has interfered with my even dabbling. I ~do~ have ideas for either Calimport or a generic Tortuga type pirate town with walkable rooftops though.

I once has interest in starting this up again to. But I'm studying now, am involved in several large scale plots and I have a faction to keep an eye on, so I'm pretty full up for such things. I don't mind doing some things every now and then if someone starts it up again. I still have most of the knowledge I did back then on how to use the good old toolset in NWN2.

In the end it's probably a good thing that it went bust.

The cancer known as NWN1's playerbase, although die hard fans as they are, are slowly reducing in numbers. No point splitting it even further.

Besides... there was more developed Sword Coast nwn2 modules out there anyway. In all accounts, a shame as it was, it was no real loss.

Where are the Amia II forums and server?
