NWN2 IRC

Many of you may not be aware, but there is a semi-official NWN2 chat, run for the community by the community reps.

There are two official channels/rooms:
* #nwn2cr - discussion in here ranges from gameplay, to toolset use, multiplayer, scripting, and pretty much everything in-between.
* #nwn2spoilers - discussion about the Original/Official Campaign, Mask of the Betray, and Storm of Zehir that may contain spoiler content.

You'll usually find between 30-50 people online at any given time.
You can use our browser-based applet to connect you automatically, which can be launched here. Alternatively, you can connect using your preferred IRC program, such as mirc or free x-chat for Windows.   The server can be found at irc.nwn2source.net.

Please keep discussion in the official channels to a "PG" rating. The definition of this can be found here

Edit: Please remember that people in the chat room are in many different time zones - if you have a question and don't get an answer immediately, wait around for a bit or stop back later and you'll probably have better luck.

Come, join us on IRC we love to talk NWN2, help with any problems etc.

Here are Simple Instructions for X-Chat Users to get started:
X-Chat first time login to NWN2 IRC Instructions:

1) When you first open X-Chat you should have a screen applet that appears somewhat blank. At the top of the application are your standard application toolbar options:
XChat -- View -- Server -- Settings -- Window -- Help

2) The first time you use XChat or the first time you set up a new IRC server connection, you need to select: XChat.

3) In the XChat window that opens up, you'll see:
User Information
Nickname
Second Choice
Third Choice
User Name
Real Name

Networks
A huge list (ignore it) to the left in a window box and:
+ Add
- Remove
Edit
Sort

4) Click +Add.
A new choice will pop into the server window that says: New Network.
Name the New Network: NWN2 Chat

5) Now click Edit.
If you clicked Edit with NWN2 Chat highlighted, you should see a window that comes up that at the top says:
XChat: Edit NWN2 Chat

6) There are 3 (three) sections to this box: Servers for NWN2 Chat;
Your Details; and
Connecting.

7) In Servers for NWN2 Chat you will have to click +Add. When you do, you should see a new indicator that says:
newserver/6667
Now click Edit without doing anything else.

8) The title newserver/6667 will highlight to allow you to input the important details of the server name and port address. This should be: irc.nwn2source.net/6667 exactly as you see it here.

9) Pretty much leave the rest alone except for down at the Connecting section where you will add, where it says: Favorite Channels, the chat channel: #nwn2cr again exactly as you see it here.

That should get you there once all that's done and you Close that window box.

FYI - this chat room is where many of the developers and builders of on-line worlds and custom content creators hang out daily.

This means its frequently a good source for potential Q&A fixes and suggestions if something with the game just isn't working right (it happens).

A nice place to chat with like minded people as well about the game.

Decent guys to chat with about almost anything. Quite enjoyable, really.

This is also a good place to go if you want advice on servers (building one or playing on them). Be sure to check it out. The people are more than helpful here.
