A Land Far Away

Logging into The Silver Marches:

You will need the Mask of the Betrayer and Storms of Zehir expansions for NWN2, and the current patch from obsidian installed, in order to join. The server is listed under PW story in gamespy.

A good recommendation is to start in Rivermoot, as that area has many merchants and a set of lowlevel static quests scripted.

Check it out, enjoy, and post bugs as they are found.

Note: Worldgate is no longer supported, the ADL (AutoDownLoader) that was added with NWN2 patch 1.23 now serves the function of automatically updating your haks and walkmesh files. You may now delete your neverwinter nights 2 / PWC / alfa003_tsm.pwc file if you like (and clear off a gigabyte of hard drive space in the process).

This is the error I keep getting when attempting to use Worldgate to DL the needed files.

" http-error: Value of '2' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'minimum' and 'maximum.' Parameter name: Value "

Uhm ... where can i find the TSM password -- i used the one from OAS and it didn't work

Is ther any sort of answer to this besides: Sorry, doesn't work for you.

For those running Vista you want your Documents folder in C:\Users\<username>

You need to set up the proper paths for both your NWN2 installation and your NWN2 data files. The default path for the installation is "c:\program files\atari\neverwinter nights 2" and for your NWN2 data "c:\users\your name\documents\Neverwinter Nights 2"

Use the blue buttons with the "..." labels to browse your computer for the correct paths for your installation.

Use Worldgate and make it easier on yourself -- http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Nw ... d=29#Files

Is there a need to have such a massive download? Why is it different from NWN1? Maybe I should set aside a "Download Day" to get the required files... I take consilation in the fact that once theyre mine I wont have to spend much time getting the updates....

I have three suggestions for you: Getright, Download Accelerator Plus, & Flashget. Any one of these will help speed things up immensely, as you can set it to download 4 or more chunks at a time, even if there is only one source for any given file. Instead of waiting hours, you can be up and running in 20 minutes to half an hour, tops, in most cases. Just download the pwc file, itself, from the link provided, using your download manager of choice, and unzip/unrar it to the pwc folder where it belongs.

Please update your worldgate configuration so that the server name is now:
download.alandfaraway.org instead of www.alandfaraway.org

You just need to edit the configuration and replace www with download and that should be it.

Send me PMs or post here if you have problems.

As I said in the other thread this is because we no longer have enough room on our www server.

If you are new and need to configure worldgate everything should be up to date and you can still use the "FromURL" method with www.alandfaraway.org as the infos have been updated in the auto configuration file.

The only one that's changed is:

http://download.alandfaraway.org/downlo ... a_1.50.rar

Cleaned up. Let's use this for module and Worldgate status, too? Unstickying the other announcement.

I'm having an issue. I can't seem to get the pwc and worldgate isn't working for me. When I try to dl the pwc from the link abnove I get 94% of it then it stops and gives me a message that the file is corrupt. Please help.

Updated the server to v1.13.1409, the hotfix to patch 1.13. No hak update associated with this, but you will have to patch your installs to join.

As before, clear your override folder before patching.

As the autoupdater is going slow, the english-install folks can use the following file to manually update:

http://nwvault.ign.com/fms/Download.php?id=122987

save it to your /program files/atari/nwn2/ directory, leave it zipped. Then run the nwn2update.exe in that same folder and it should sort you out.
