Title: NWN2 Multiplayer.
Post by: 420 on November 05, 2006, 12:44:05 PM
OK, I think I figured out the problem with connecting to multiplayer games. Everyone please download this "client pack" for my NWN2 mod, put it into your pwc directory (under MyDocuments/Neverwinter Nights2/pwc) and see if you can log in.

Try uploading elsewhere, or send it to me(e-mail, since you don't use IM), I'll try and get it on here.

But first, try zipping or rarring it. As far as I know, you can upload zip files.

Heh, I suggested the same idea (zip the file) to 420, so when I can pry him off the NWN2 OC, he'll zip up fis client pack and post it.

Alright the Tavern of Doors Client Pack is uploaded (check the original post) please see if you can get on. Remember, this is a very early rendition and I haven't done very much work on it, also, Kii'Kann is hostile so watch out for him.

Looks like I'm having some trouble updating my mod. I updated to 1.02 and then opened my mod in the toolset and resaved it. That was enough to update it in NWN but now it sees like there is a version mismatch, and my mod is still 1.01.

EDIT: Update on that problem with the version mismatch. Link (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=513303&forum=116)

I'm not sure how this got missed, but the new update doesn't update the nwn2server.exe so if you try to connect to a dedicated server you get a version mismatch.

Ya, I was so desperate to get back online to play.. that I attempted to change the version of NWN2 within the registry... and then reinstalling the patch. Of course, this was a huge long shot and I didn't really expect it to work... it fooled the updater and all... up until it spazed out about a weird unknown version of the nwn2main.exe file =P. Well I'm going to reinstall the game... it updates the game one version at a time... so you should be able to uninstall and reinstall to update to 1.01 and not 1.02 and play online again. I'm only doing this because I have a day off from school and I'm bored and hungry for some PvP. Hope some others can join me in Tavern of Doors later for a chat.

420 Editted his post: Link (http://lucidmagic.net:8080/forum/index.php?showtopic=2517&view=findpost&p=32465) The problem is in the quote he added, it appears you may have to wait for a new patch before you can ever connect.

Latest word from Obsidian is that 1.02 was a "hot fix" which was accidently made available through the auto-update system. It has been pulled since and is now being worked on. For those of us that pupdated, we may have to reinstall. No word yet about what the people that patched with the buggy 1.02 are suppose to do.

1.02 was a mistake, it wasn't suppose to be released in the first place so they removed it. All those people that updated are screwed and will either have to reinstall and patch to 1.01 or wait until the end of the month when 1.03 is released.

New version of the Tavern of Doors .pwc file is available in the original post!

I will be adding more shortly but for now a new room has been added that will house the leveler, alignment changer, gold maker, etc. Also, the prison plane of Carceri has been added though, without DB functionality bans aren't permanent.

420 did you release that pwc before or after that time I logged in a few days ago? The last time you say me. I believe it was on the 13th at night. Because if you released it before, then you don't need an updated pwc file. I ask because when I joined Tavern of Doors that time it took longer to load and said something about updating the pwc file I think and it did it for me. So we should check this out. I don't think you'll have to update the pwc file every time you make an update like that.

Yes you do, if you change any thing in the mod at all, even a different walk path for an npc you have to update the pwc.

Very interesting, I'll try this out next time I update the pwc. I think Throbble logged in last night without downloading the new pwc too.

If it's true that once you manually download a pwc it automatically updates when you log in, that would be great!

Where did you put the pwc file?

Make sure it's in the My Documents\Neverwinter Nights2\pwc\ directory.

Post by: Tyrael on November 15, 2006, 02:37:10 PM
theres no problem on where the pwc is, well at least first time i just had it in the installation folder ( cos mercy told me to put it there :P) and i could enter server no problem, then when i had the toolset problem i uninstalled and searched for every nwn2 thingsto delete them and reinstall so i noticed the pwc folder in my documents and moved it there, so i think as long its in installation directory or in my documents it should work.
if it doesnt, do like i did, uninstall, wipe every nwn2 folders/files you can find after uninstall (less savegames of course :P) then reinstall.
that fixed my toolset problem maybe it fix your pwc problem

edit: i tested it in some other nwn2 related folders and only works on those 2, main nwn2 installation folder (Program Files\Atari\Neverwinter Nights 2) and the other 420 stated above  :)

Sadly I believe Mercy is right. I tried logging on again later and I got an error until I updated the pwc file. *tear*. Would of been better if you didn't have to *sigh*. So that's a negatory.
