The Bulletin Board System (BBS) allows players to read and post messages in your game. It consists of an NPC Scribe that allows players to post messages and a Signpost placeable to read messages. Messages are listed starting with the latest first. Players can page through the entries, which show the title of the post and the name of the poster. Upon clicking an entry the player will get the body of the message. Older messages eventually drop off to make space for new ones. You can place down as many bulletin boards as you want and they can share one global listing of messages or they can each have their own separate listings.

Yeah, I'll probably update it. I just reinstalled NWN for SoU. It had been off my computer for almost a year now.

Well, I just tested the system and I am very impressed. So easy to implement and works so beutifully. The scribe even looks at the bulletin board when the character does. Nice subtle touch. I have a couple of suggestions. First and foremost, the author of a message really should have an option to delete his message. Second, messages posted by the DM and NPCs should be designated, maybe with a different color or something and a parenthetical note that the message is from the DM. Third, I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice if the date the message was posted could be given in game time and in real time. I don't recall there being any scripting functions to access the computer's clock, so this probably isn't possible without initializing the system with the real time and date and then a lot of math, but it would be a nice touch. Hope you don't think I'm being too critical. This system is top notch. Best Regards

Also the NPC may not have the feat to wear what you are trying to make it wear such as heavy armor. Go to the properties of that NPC and click the tab FEATS. Make sure the abilities to wear light,medium and heavy armor are checked, if not check them.

The readme.txt that comes with the ZIP has a section called "HOW TO IMPLEMENT IN YOUR MODULE"

This may seem stupid, but I can't figure this out, It was just the board and sribe, where is the scrips and conversations?
