Check ou this link http://nwn.bioware.com/downloads/standaloneserver.html. Bioware puts out a NWN server that does not need a cd key. The catch is that is all that it does. There is a linux version also.
Yeah I've seen this stand-alone server (the link you posted dosen't seem to work btw), just wondered why you downloaded that individually instead of using the default NWserver that came with your latest patch..? Or is there something I'm missing here, lol.

If you check the NWN bioware forums which I spent a ton of time on today. You will see that the 1.30 patch will ship with SoU and there is a ton of debate what will happen with NWN non-SoU playing on the new SoU servers. One quote off of there was someone asking what would someone who is not SoU see when a SoU cast a SoU spell. The joking answer was a default badger smacking the person.
Yah I been debating this myself. Most are thrilled as I am but people don't see the full picture and I fear their optimism is misplaced. There can't possibly be a way to whip out an SOU spell in a non-SOU server unless the latest patch is so massive and contains the files needed to cast these spells, from VFX to 2DA's which basically means that the latest patch is the half of the SOU expansion - free to those who haven't bought it. It's mental really. What is the official Biomod word on this if any?
