Is it possible to get this world on on my computer for one player use? How could I do it and what would I need? Don't get me wrong, the online version is way cool, but if I had a one player version I could use my custom voice sets and portraits ect. Don't worry, I'm not gonna try to make a rip off of the game. I don't know how to do it anyways. I'm willing to pay money of course. Can it be done?

If i may be presumptuous and speak for the admins, the answer is probably no chance. Firstly, money is irrelevant. The server is something that is done for pleasure, not for monetary gain. Additionally, the NWN2 ToCs are quite clear that custom content for NWN2 cannot be charged for (this is the reason there are no pay-to-play PWs or content). Secondly, to release the full module would require the permission of every person who has contributed the server over the years. This is not possible as many people have moved on and are no longer contactable. Those who are contactable may still not give permission. Thirdly, there are parts that we are not willing to release in general. For example, our anti-cheat scripts and XP gain scripts. I don't think we would be willing to provide a stripped down module for a single person. I understand you say that its only for private use and wouldn't release it, but we have no guarantees about that. If you want to so badly use your custom portraits and soundsets, use any module freely available from the vault. Although why this is so important for you if its for single player only, i cannot fathom. |

That's too bad. I find it hard to believe that there is so much red tape for an old game. You said it your self that there are no profit sites or DLCs for NWN2 content. Why would anyone pay for a game when they can play for free. On that note, what risk is there in giving me my own copy to play? whatever. I |

The game may be relatively old, but the content is owned by the creators. As I said, we do not have permission to release their content without their permission. Even if every active builder and admin gave permission there would still be large parts of the mod we cannot and other parts that we will not release, at least as long as the server is still alive. I hope this makes matters clear. |

For single player planescape nwn2 I suggest you check out http://www.rdsplanescape.com/ SCoD was never designed to play as a single player module, and it would not work that well for it. And like Agony Aunt mentioned, there are areas and scripts as well as specifics of monster stats that we'd not like to be published. In addition to that the module would have to be sanitized to remove all server side anti-cheating measures and things that work with the server side database, making it a non-trivial job to convert the server to a single player module. |

Ah, also forgot about the NWNX and DB integration. That's quite a few scripts that would need modifying. |
