Slow going, but still going...

No update for a couple of months again! Sorry about that.

If I could summarise the state of Eyes of Eilistraee I'd say the critical path is almost done but a lot of polish is still required to many elements of the module. Combat balancing is something I need to tweak as is making sure all of the party members have their storylines fully implemented and bug free. Still a fair bit of work to do.

The worst part about it not being finished is that the migration to NWN2 appears to have really picked up pace, since some of the newer high quality modules have been released and with the event of MOTB and the announcement of Mysteries of Westgate. If more people playing NWN2 mods means less playing NWN1 mods then I'll be releasing the mod to a much smaller audience. Although that's something that does concern me, I can envisage a situation that would see me port Eyes of Eilistraee to NWN2 in the future so, in theory story, dialogue and scripts would not be lost and therefore the bulk of the project wont be wasted effort.

Since I've had 8 interruptions since starting this post (that is why I never get time to update the damn blog) I'm going to have to abandon this update. Sorry guys. They'll be more as soon as I can grab some time to post it.

Glad to see you're still plugging along (is that an expression?). :)

And as one of those (and not everyone is like this) who don't play NWN anymore (well, I haven't played NWN2 recently, either - or anything else, for that matter) I'm also glad to hear that you might be porting the mod to NWN2 at some point.

All the best,
Lariam
