I saw that too.If we had to do that even for updates and bug fixes..What a pain in the ass. As for this, I'm not too concerned - this doesn't mean you need to distribute "avlis.mod" before can clients connect (like the .hak packs). All it means is that when a character enters a new area, the walkme...

The toolset is immensely powerful - and we pay for that with a decrease in ease of use and "pretty" factor. It's well worth it, however. The learning curve is much steeper.

Additionally things like bug fixes will be easier due to being able to have multiple coding/property windows etc open at once. I, personally, am very excited ...

Linux/Mac support

Please, let me mirror earlier concerns in this thread about Avlis on NWN1 being phased out in favour of NWN2. Atari/Obsidian have officially announced that NWN2 will not be ported to Linux or Macintosh, like NWN1 was. Worse (for CoPaP), there will also not be a Linux server app. I do not know how ma...
