We are in the process of putting together a mod to demonstrate some of the things we have been working on. It will most likely be hosted as semi-persistant and used for testing. This isn't exactly a "BETA" version as all characters will eventually be reset when the actual PW goes online. During this Demo time we will be looking for DMs who wish to join - this will be a prime opportunity for someone who has never DMed before to get their feet wet and take a shot at it. Anybody interested in either DMing or building on the Development Team should contact Knightmare. Also, we will be keeping our eyes our for superior roleplaying players who may be given the option to play "storyline characters" - essentially NPCs under the control of live players if you can figure out what that means. ETA is probablly sometime in May 2005. I'll post more updates to this as info becomes available.

Will this demo be open for "common" players as well, or is it exclusively for dm:s and superior roleplayers?

We are narrowing down a launch date. Hopefully within the next 24 hours I will be able to give you a specific date. I realize I missed my own 24 hr deadline, sorry about that. I have begun uploading the needed haks to the NWVault. Due to their size (a total of 9 haks for about a combined 145Mb), they need special permission from Maximus before they will become available. More info will come when we hear back from Maximus. Alternatively, people can request to join up to our FolderShare program and get the haks at any time now. Our current target date is this coming Monday, May 23rd - though that is EST time, so it may end up being Tuesday for some of you, depending on where in the world you are at. The server will be available to only those with DM access to start out, but you will only be able to enter as a player - I want all the DMs to get a player perspective to begin with.

So when will the 'adventurers' be able to check it out? We are planning on having the DMs check it out for perhaps up to a week. This will allow us to make any major changes that come up as needed as well as give the DMs some time to come up with quests, etc. So therefor, "adventurers" will be able to get in sometime around the 31st.
