As this sort of thing doesn’t tend to be mentioned in the host’s package overview, it might be worth anyone using my script or other variations of it mentioning which hosts it works on, which will open the port on request and which aren’t quite so helpful.

1. Download the latest PRC server pack from the nwn-prc website
2. Move to C: drive root (This will show folders called program files and Windows) as well as others
3. Create folder named PRC
4. Create a folder INSIDE the PRC folder named precacher2das (It MUST be named exactly like this for the compiler to work.
5. Extract server pack to your NWN root folder (This should be something similar to C:\NeverwinterNights\ )
3. Extract bioware2das rar folder to the C:\PRC\precacher2das
4. Copy the file named prc.jar from the NWN root folder to the c:\PRC is must be in the directory where the precacher2das folder is i.e. C:\PRC\
5. Using the NWN viewer extract the files prc_2das.hak and prc_race.hak to another seperate folder (Any one you make it fine) This should be located in the C:\NeverwinterNights\hak folder
If you intend to use the PRC crafting you must also extract the prc crafting.hak to this folder.
6. COPY all the files you extracted from the prc_2das.hak file to the C:\PRC\precacher2das\ folder Overwrite any file it asks to
6a. This step is needed until things are sorted out with the current releases of everything. In the C:\PRC\precacher2das\ folder delete the files that begin with packsp*** there should be a few of them, they will have class names directly after the packsp letters
7. Click the Start button in WinXP and then go to run
8. Type cmd press enter
9. You should now be at a DOS prompt
10. type cd\ press enter
11. type cd PRC press enter
12. type java -Xmx100m -jar prc.jar 2datosql precacher2das sqlite press enter
13 If you’ve done things properly to this point you will now be waiting for about 5 hours for the databases to be updated properly. Just let it run it’s supposed to take a while.
14. Once this process finished you will see a file called out.sql in the same folder as the prc.jar Copy the out.sql file to your Neverwinter Nights directory
15. Make sure sqlite.exe is in your Neverwinter Nights folder
16. you need to add the contents of out.sql into the sqlite database. Go back to the command prompt and change directory to your Neverwinter directory, probably C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\
17. type sqlite sqlite.db “.read out.sql” press enter

Try double checking that you didn’t edit the hex string the script sends to the server as that has to be exactly the same for it to reply.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ‘)’ in /home/altharia/public_html/nwserver_status.php.txt on line 9

As I said I am worthless with this stuff. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated.
