Simple, yet extremely effective server monitoring tool and provides a way for the administrator to have their module automatically restarted without manual intervention. PROs: DOES NOT require the administrator to 'click' START to load the module. DOES NOT require ANY additional software to be installed/downloaded (like .NET framework) Provides Audio Alerts should the user desire them, whenever the module is detected as crashed/not responding. Provides user setting for intervals between checks for the module. Proven effective in providing multiple servers over 340 hours straight uptime. Proven effective in minimizing any crashed/Not responding NWServer downtime, with automated restart. Includes Memory freeing utility to reduce / eliminate the Bioware Memory leaks, runs once per hour. . (Proven runtimes on 'Tegel Village' averages 320+ hours - (resets are for module updates/revisions or server maintenance only) (Newest verson as of 2004-03-04 )
Would this work with NWNX2 also? Or is it an either or situation?
I need NWNX2, but would like to try out what is claiming 320+ hours uptime by cleaning up memory. Any possibility to run this with NWNX2? Or is there a way i could get the app that does the part that NWNX2 doesnt and run that as background process or something?
Thanks again :-)

could you give an example of what the batch file would need to look like or the specifics of what needs to be on the execute line, i can get this to start the server but not the module.. and unfortuneatly thats not very useful to me, I know its just something in the way im setting this up.. but I really need to know how to set it up properly.
This program is just using one of the many programs available on the internet, to free up the memory that is no longer used by the Biwoare program(s), but is not being reported as such. It is using the evaluation version of one of these memory-freeing programs, but its execution is only taking roughly 10-15 seconds and then terminated until the next hour's iteration. This program keeps all the 'temp' files in your %TEMP% folder within a sub-folder called MonitorNWN, in which you can see the files that get executed, including the alert wav files (Klaxon.wav, redalert.wav) and the Memory freeing program itself. (which has not been modified from its original state)
All such instances are executed 'behind the scenes', though, to keep the user from interfering with their execution.
Provided you get the program from this source (NWVAULT) or from my website, I can guarantee there is no malicious activity within the program.

Can you give a little detail as to how this works? The memory cleaning part especially. Or do you prefer to keep the internals secret? I ask as many of us are quite skeptical about this, and think it more likely that it is some form of trojan/virus than that it does what is claimed. Though I hope this is real of course :)
