Haks and future stuff.

No idea if this had been asked before:

I heard there is a lot of work going on to impliment haks into the server.
I myself am a bit of the old Jjjerm view on things who believes Arelith should be easily accessable to new players.
And I know the base is somewhat divided on the use of haks

Can we do a split again, Like Amia-Arelith in the past?

EE has made haks easily accessible due to the auto hak downloader, so there's no need to worry about new players facing issues. :)

Arelith has not considered HAKS previously as accessibility and ease was not there. Not every player is knowledgeable of what needs to be done, and ensuring everyone had all the files placed in the right place would have been more difficult for a server of this size.

However, Beamdog introduced NWSYNC which enables for easy implementation of HAKS and easy access to them. All players have to do is join a server with NWSYNC and it will prompt them with the download of the HAKs needed to play, installing them for you. And if a server shared the same haks, it will not duplicate the files.

But, there will not be a split. We will work to make it as easy for everyone possible.

not to mention that everyone who plays nowadays are used to downloading extra content in some sort, so it wont deter new players either.
