It's a little laggy for me, but that may just be my abysmal bandwidth & connection speed.
Great work Paul. bounce

Diredt connect should reduce lag a bit, on both ends.

Working on a problem at the moment sever software seems to be way over active and pushing my cpu temp quite high.
Working on it it but with no timescale.

Unfortunatly server has had its ass handed it to by a series of unfortunate events;
The Following has happened
1. CPU temp running very high
2. PC doing large amount of resets because of the above
3. Power cut powering down the server while running scans/update
4. Above resulted in corrupt windows files and me raging for 3 days and shouting a workers in the middle of the road.
5. Working backshift/not being home as looking after mother in laws dogs = delayed repairs

What ive done to fix the problem so far + in process.
1 + 2 - 2 new fans installed new intake and exhaust fans. Hest sink reset using Artic Silver 5 ( Never again shall i use stock paste)
3 + 4 + 5 - New install of NWN will be done on thursday this week as i have a day off i will have the server running BUT it will be getting monitered closely over the weekend to make sure temps stay stable.

This means i have lost ALL characters from the server, i apologise for this and i am putting in place a weekly back up on characters when the server is stable.

Sorry guys but ill have the serve back ASAP

For what it's worth, anyone who comes & talks to me will get a level boost and a bucket of money for each of their characters that have been lost. Smile

I'm on most evenings sometime between 1800 & 0000 (+10 GMT)
