News from scalyface In an effort to make High Hold more friendly to new players and pc's you will all have noticed quite a few layout changes during the last few days. I'm doing this so that the areas in and around High Hold keep within the levels they are meant for.

Major changes.

The Moonwood is now connected to the Northern exit of High Hold.

Quaervarr is accessible from the eastern Moonwood via the Oak House and has a less dangerous trek to get there, as long a you stick to the paths.

Goblins and Kobolds have been brought into line with the MM, thus it should be easier for lower level parties to survive and thrive.

The kobolds will still mob, but this should be easier to handle in a party.

The Tradeway Bandits have been scaled down also. I tested this area with a level 5 fighter and found it extremely difficult to get through, which isn't justifiable, as it joins up with the Rauvin Watchkeep.

Again, sticking to pathways will help with keeping out of trouble.

Minor changes.

I've removed all encounters that spawn as you transition. I find this unfair to all. Please let me know if I've missed anything.

The Earthmother's quest iq now available in High Hold, with a new quest giver.

Tim only needs 3 puppies now, I will change the journal entry asap.

Same with the High Hold drunk quest, which should work with the next update.

I'll be continuing with incremntal updates over the next few days (23,24,25 July).

Warning !  Races of Faerun Dialog.tlk file Reply to this News Item Print this Topic E-Mail this Topic
Posted on 2009-11-21, 05:17 by arolar
News from arolar /////////////////////////////////////////////////
//Moonlight and Shadows Dialog.tlk file //
//By: DM Azurine Lightbane //
////////////////////////////////////////////////


+++Information+++
You need the dialog.tlk file for Moonlight and Shadows (M&S). This file is needed for any of additional classes or spells offered by the Races of Faerun + Kaedrins Combo pack to work. To get this file you need to download it at:

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2HakpaksCombined.Detail&id=30

When you get the zip file you will need the dialog.tlk file in the main folder.


+++Instalation+++
This file should be in the base NWN directory in your Documents folder
EX: C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\

You will have problems if this file is anywhere else such as:
EX: C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\tlk\
C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\override\
C:\My Documents\Neverwinter Nights 2\hak\

Or if the file is not even there.

+++Usual Problems+++
Problem: I already have a dialog.tlk file but I'm still having problems! WTH!?!
Solution: That file is probably for another server. Please make a backup of it by cut and pasting it in another directory of your choosing then replace it with the one in this zip file. A better solution is to make a back up of the entire NWN2 directory and clear out your overrides, hacks, and dialog.tlk file and replace it with all the files for moonlight and shadows (see below).

Problem: Can't even see additional races, classes
Solution: While this can be a server problem it is more likely that you do not have the haks/overrides for Kaedrin's
to work. Please got to http://www.moonlightandshadows.com/portal/viewtopic.php?t=5248 and download and unzip all needed files to their proper directories.

Problem: I can see the options but it's all garbled or there's no words
Solution: You are either missing or have your dialog.tlk file in the wrong place. See "Instalation" above.

Problem: Additional feats and spells are not working
Solution: Check and see if you can cast the spells or use the feats locally. If you can this is a server side issue that will be fixed by the staff. If you can't please check that all your files for the Races of Faerun + Kaedrin's combo pack are in the correct place.

Warning !  Let the server come back up Reply to this News Item Print this Topic E-Mail this Topic
Posted on 2008-05-04, 22:12 by arolar
News from arolar When the server has crashed and is restarting give it 5 minutes from the time it shows up in Gamespy to reload the module.

Currently the server takes 16+ minutes to load from the point that the game application resets.

Letting the server fully load before logging in helps prevent another crash.

The Management

(Exception Note: that if you are in chat and Arolar, Scaly, DW or Soulfiend tell you the server is up you can log on immediately. Those persons have direct access to the server and can verify that module is fully loaded.)

Warning !  Rules of the server Reply to this News Item Print this Topic E-Mail this Topic
Posted on 2007-08-02, 20:12 by Soulfiend
News from Soulfiend Moonlight and Shadows:

You MUST have the expansion packs Mask of the Betrayer and Storm of Zehir installed to play on Moonlight and Shadows. If you do not, you will crash in any area that has placeables, terrain etc etc that were introduced with it.


We use two overrides, Races of Faerun and whatbricks hair. Clear out anything else you may have in your override folder as this may cause lag on the server.

DO NOT KEEP YOUR OVERRIDE FOLDER FULL OF JUNK, players suspected of causing needless lag will be banned, we do track it on the server.



1. This is a high role play server. You should stay in character according to your class/race/alignment at all times. Any OOC talk should be clearly marked as such, done on the party channel or in tells.

2. Use of "Shout" channel is restricted to DM/Staff only.

3. DM decisions are final. Respect what they tell you. If you feel it was unfair or inappropriate, please speak with arolar or Soulfiend.

4. You may PvP IF it is well role played and agreed on by ALL players involved beforehand. Once the PvP is over with, the PCs must avoid each other as much as possible. The loser may not seek out the winner for revenge. The only time the involved PCs should play together afterward is they have RPed some sort of agreement/truce. Bullying will not be tolerated, by that we mean picking on other players simply because you've taken a dislike to their pc. Remember RP is the name of the game.

5. Players MAY NOT transfer items from any PC they play to another PC they play, under any circumstances. This includes, but is not limited to, muling using another player or dropping it and picking it up as another PC.

6. PCs may give items to other PCs (played by another player) IF there is a RP reason for it, and it is an item appropriate to the level of the PC receiving the item.

7. It is an 18+ server, so graphic conversation is not prohibited. That said, it should be done in character and privately. Be aware that a DM may be present and can see your conversation, and/or will get ANY conversation on the party channel. If it involves PCs that have no IC reason to do it and a DM sees it, you will be subject to possible alignment shifts, etc as the DM deems appropriate. This also applies to use of vulgar language (swearing, etc). It is not prohibited, but please make sure it is IC and not used simply to offend. If anyone has a complaint about the language/conduct of another player, please speak to Soulfiend or scalyface .

7a. Sexual harrassment In character or otherwise is strictly forbidden on this server. Any complaints backed up with a screenshot proving this will result in the offender being banned immediately. Any aspects of rape or pornographic behavior will result in an immediate ban.

7b. Character Description on Character Creation screen.
All Player Characters are considered 18 + (or racial equivalent) on the server. In the description field any wording implying otherwise will get them wiped and the player warned.

8. All rules posts or announcements in the forum must be followed by the player. It is your responsibility to read them. This is not meant to be an all inclusive list and may be modified at any time. Please use common sense and courtesy when in the server. Violations of any these rules will result in warnings and/or banning.

9. The five level rule MUST be adhered to by everyone (with the exception of the Hellfire Warlock class since it only allows three levels in the game engine):

The five level rule has been modified. You may now level as you wish, but in any additional classes you take you MUST have at least five levels in it/them by the time you reach 20th. Levels 21 upwards, you must take at least 3 levels in any new class taken up to 30th.


10. Logging out of the PW to avoid a death is punishable by being banned. It is cheating and unfair to other players.
Our DM's are competent to judge what is a legitimate crash and persistent logging off when in battle.

11. Very Important : Before downloading and installing our haks, please make sure your hak folders and override folders from My documents and Atari/NW2 are empty of other third party haks and overrides. This will avoid conflicts with M and S required files.

12. There are no special applications for NWN2 PrCs. There is an application for Kaedrin's PrCs. Those applications go to jmbrosendo. Those applications MUST include Login, Char name, Final Build, Progression, Background, and Observations,/notes.

12a. Races of Faerun race applications go to Arolar. Those applications just need Login, Character Name, Race, and a list of areas that character is not allowed to enter based on this rule: http://www.moonlightandshadows.com/portal/viewtopic.php?t=5256

13. Epic Levels : Free to be taken when you pass the level cap. If you do still wish an event to be run, contact arolar, but this is no longer an obligation.

14. Redoing pc's is not permitted on Moonlight and Shadows, think carefully before you level up. As of 05 March 2009 "restarting" a character is only permitted by AKsiren420. If you wish to restart a character for a plausible IC reason send a PM to AKsiren420 and she will approve the restart, if appropriate. Please note that no items or xp is allowed to be transferred between the old PC and the "restarted" one.

15. Divine spell casters must choose domains as specified here: http://www.moonlightandshadows.com/portal/viewtopic.php?t=4090

Note  DM Guidance during Roleplay on the server Reply to this News Item Print this Topic E-Mail this Topic
Posted on 2007-07-25, 03:49 by arolar
News from arolar This is a roleplay server. The Dungeon Masters that are here are here to help the players conduct realistic roleplay and create a fun RP environment. If a DM asks you OOC to perform an action for RP purposes please do so.

For example, a DM is playing a guard that is attempting to arrest your character for stealing tomatoes in the market. As the guard the DM tells your character to "halt". Since this is an IC command as the guard you do not have to obey the guard so you decide to run.

As you run out of town the DM decides to have another nearby guard attempt to tackle you so the DM sends you a tell: "Roll a strength or dexterity check, your choice"

At that point you must stop and roll the check. If other players are around you can send an OOC comment like ((rolling dex)) so that folks know.

After the DM referees the ability check the DM will give OOC direction along the lines of: "you are able to run away" or "you are tackled, do not move". Again since this is OOC direction you must do as the DM states.

If you do not agree with following OOC DM direction in game then you should find another server. Players who consistently fail to follow DM direction will be asked to go elsewhere.

The DM staff here was chosen for their fairness and there ability to provide an enjoyable RP experience; however, if you feel that a DM has not treated you or the situation correctly please send a PM to me.

- Arolar
