Hi,

I'm brand new. I played on an nwn2 server but my computer crashed, and I'm using an old machine.

What a great server you guys have here. I only have one issue: I can't seem to get my character bio updated.

Perhaps I am a buffoon. This is what I've been trying on the shout channel:

Quote:
f_Bio [N][This is where I type the description of my character I want people to see.]


I'm getting "invalid command!" and of course the description isn't changing.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

I usually just type it exactly like this and it seems to work fine for me:

/s f_message N What stands before you is a god among men! This might mountain of muscles makes all the lady-folk swoon.

It's the brackets, isn't it? It's always the brackets with me. :)

I thought it was more like /s f_bio n I'm with "evil tiefling dictator!" ?
(bio instead of message- or does "message" work too?)

It's totally bio instead of message.

I just typed the wrong command because my evil tiefling dictator brain is a mess. :twisted:

/s f_bio n to over write
/s f_bio a to add more to what exists
/s f_bio b to add a line break!

NC's Fool Proof Bio Method:1: Open Notepad

2: Write "/s f_bio N Allyourfancydescriptionhere" in your notepad document, but without the "". You can make the text as long as you want.

3: Highlight everything and ctrl-c.

4: Tab back to NWN. Press enter to begin typing in chat.

5: Press spacebar once. Press backspace once. Then hit ctrl-v. Press enter.

6: Your new bio will be in place, with no functional character limit.


For a Second Paragraph1: Type /s f_bio B into your chat bar, hit enter

2: Do Step 1 again!

3: Go back to your Notepad document and write "/s f_bio A MorePurpleProseHere" into it, but again, without the ""s. Highlight it all and hit crtl-c

4: Tab back to NWN. Press enter to begin typing in chat.

5: Press spacebar once. Press backspace once. Then hit ctrl-v. Press enter.

6: Your second paragraph will be in place, with no functional character limit.

Guise guise guise. No need to fall over each other. I am sure they're not a simpleton!

No, but the character limit workaround isn't exactly common knowledge.

Indeed. That character limit has killed some wonderful emotes that I was almost able to produce in the past. When I found that work around I began to write more and enjoy my writing more!

Thanks to all of you!

The character limit work around is excellent.

Oh... oh my, what is this? I'll just... leave this here, at the top of the forum list. I'm sure someone might find this useful.
