just got the reloaded version. Could i not install the patch on that then use the "tools" to bypass the cd check??

Or is everyone on here saying the patch won't even install on the reloaded version?

Hi All,
Been playing around a little with this game and would like to let you guys know the following:
For the ones that want to burn the game and do not have a DVD9 burner or just wish to burn it to 2 DVD5's because it's cheaper do the following.
1. Unpack the game with ISOBuster.
2. Start Nero Burning ROM and choose: New -> DVD ISO, now drag all files to the right and start removing cab files (start with the last until it fits on a DVD5. Name the DVD NWN2D1 and burn it.
3. Start Nero Burning ROM and choose New -> DVD ISO, now drag the remaining files to that DVD and include engine32.cab on that DVD. Now name the DVD NWN2D2 and burn it and you got NWN2 on 2 DVD5's instead of 1 DVD9 Smile

I wondered that also. I would think it will work provided you rename the discs. Have you actually tried this and had success Olger901? Very Happy


May the NFOrce be with you always.

if you rename each dvd a diff name wouldnt it not recognise it?

thought it would be best to keep each dvd named same as what original dvd9 name is

Thinking about it I dont think this would work. If the game was never intended to be on more than one disc doesnt the installer need some kind of information about what disc to ask for? Coding or programming or whatever? Not sure I know what Im talking about but I would think someone does Very Happy

If the installer can't find a file during the install it will no doubt error and then ask for the files location.. at which point you could point it at another CD drive which contains the information..

Like some one already said "to hardcore". If it would have been a bit more like KOTOR I would have loved it.

I know, i know, played both Baldurs Gate and Never Winternight "back then" just...well its sort a to fiddly done now...slow paced or I don't know. To much menu's and pausing etc etc. I am sure its a great game...I just don't feel "involved" enough for it.

dam this thing runs like crap on a good pc that even manages to run oblivion and gothic 3 on high settings. And it looks quite crap to except the player models that are nice and... sims like Laughing

Hopefully they will fix this or else in my opinion the original NeverWinter Nights looked better than this.

But haven't looked into the gameplay that much yet so I hope that @ least the gameplay and quest are good and interesting like the original. Sure loved newerwinter nights and the exp backs (played them all).

Hopefully theres going to be a patch that solves the performance problems.



PS: if it looks crap and runs like crap (on a good pc) then that sucks. But still I hope the gameplay will save it.

so hows the gameplay ? Compared to the original ?


Like I c that you have to read (yes children you have to learn how to read in this game before you can play it Laughing ) some of the texts and it seemed like the original. And the fight system seemed the same... So is it neverwinter nights or no ?


dam... why the heck they had to fuck up the graphics. At least if it doesn't look good it should run fine on a good pc. Finally I found a new game that is RPG and runs even worse than gothic 3 and oblivion on my pc Crying or Very sad



but really what about the gameplay Rolling Eyes

Question:
I got screwed by amazon.ca after pre-ordering the limited edition they e-mailed me today to tell me it was delayed 4-6 weeks. Which means I can't get a limited edition because of course no one in town has any left.

Does anyone know if the additional in-game content was released as part of the game, or was it just a separate installable file for the unique weapons and blessing?

It is actually alot like KOTOR, dialogues and such at least - and I swear the music after the first battle is the same as one in kotor, can't remember which though. Recycled shit, just like the npc dialogues "You die this day!" Very Happy I'm really not seeing that as a bad thing right now though, just a great combination of NWN1 and Kotor1 Smile

I know I'm totally sounding like a fanboi here but, meh.. so far the game is everything I'd hope it would be.

are you serious?

it's dungeons and dragons, the gameplay is the same as it is in baldur's gate, baldur's gate 2, neverwinter nights, icewind dale, icewind dale 2, temple of elemental evil, pool of radiance,....

a AD&D game can't possibly have any other gameplay, other than maybe beeing turn based instead of letting the turns run in real time in the background with letting you pause the game, in which case it's still basically the same.

I love this game Very Happy JUST LIKE GOTHIC 3 AND DARK MESSIAH I HATED IT THE FIRST 10 MINUTES. THEN LOVE IT Very Happy
Lol really oddddddddd, anyways. Manz. I like it alot Smile I'm an elf, and i met this dwarf dude near an inn. And we became friends and the fucking dialogue is SO GREATLY tuned to what race you are. They were all like "whyy dont you and your ELF friend over there go away! *laughter at the irony of a dwarf and elf being friends" Very Happy Omg. I felt like, eh, like gimli and legolas Very Happy Haha, so damn cool!

And you can do really evil stuff now, like a dude praying for help in a burned village. Either "here, i got some herbs that can take care of your wound".
Or [Slit throat] Very Happy Very Happy Twisted Evil


As for the graphics, just set shadows to Medium, so enviromental shadows are turned off, solves all preformance issues for me.

I personally hope its like the good old NeverWinter Nights that I liked.


Going to turn off shadows (dam this thing looks crap even compared to the nwn 1 that way) and c if the gameplay takes me away from the bad frame rate.


Sure hope that a patch will fix these problems.

It's sad to c that the game is getting bad ratings only because of the performance problems. This game should have been in development @ least for a month or two. It would have made a lovely X mas present.

(staring at my pc looking sad asking my self: why why did they have to fuck up the graphics and the performance... why god why.... )

Cool man! I wish I had the...energy to get in to it. Like I said you sort a need to gear up for the "quest, dialog, menu, click click thang...I guess i am spoiled by all the "easy interface, lazy games" Razz. Like I said, i am sure its a great game, just don't fell like gearing up for it...Medieval II and SCDA is on the horizon...well you know Wink

No its not. The patch at GCW is the merchant's friend pre-sale bonus. Not the bonus material from the Limited Edition, which includes a unique weapon for each class and a feat which gives saving throw bonuses and other doo-dads called Blessing of Waukeen.

yes, it says so in the requirements.




and about the performance, that's all way exaggerated, it's running great here with everything on max even in big battles with 20 characters on screen.
