v1.3.0
We're excited to announce a major update to the nwnx4 project with the introduction of a new Docker-based approach to running the server through Linux. This new approach provides a seamless way to deploy and manage the server, while also offering a significant performance boost over traditional installation and setup methods. This marks a milestone for the project. For the first time ever, NWNX4 with the NWN2 game server is ran through Linux and not Windows.
Some of the key features of this update include:
- Support for running the server through Docker containers, providing a more reliable and scalable solution for managing server instances.
- Added feature and setting to xp_bugfix allowing skipping creation process of SSL certificate.
- All plugins are copied to the /etc/nwnx4/plugins folder with a preference first for the NWNX4 user folder and then the NWNX4 distribution. If a plugin doesn't work, try accessing it from this folder.
- The image is available from the Docker Hub
docker pull nwn2dev/nwnx4
This update represents a major step forward for the NWN2 and NWNX4 communities, offering a powerful new toolset for running and customizing the game. We hope that this new Docker-based approach will help to further enhance the player experience, and we look forward to seeing the new and exciting ways that the community will use these tools.
