Don't suppose there's a standalone patch to the final version somewhere? Took a quick on on nwvault and some patches are missing. :wall:

I had to download and patch them in manually using some instructions from NWvault. Actually, I used this NWN2 Patcher: http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NW ... tail&id=12 I had to run these specific files, but yours may be different:

nwn2_pcx2_english_from1201541_to1211549.rtp
nwn2_pcx2_english_from1211549_to1221586.rtp
nwn2_pcx2_english_from1221586_to1221587.rtp
nwn2_pcx2_english_from1221587_to1221588.rtp
nwn2_pcx2_english_from1221588_to1231763.rtp
nwn2_pcx2_english_from1231763_to1231765.rtp

Got these from here:
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=nw ... tail&id=19
or
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NW ... 30#english

Did this a couple of weeks ago using my original CDs and DVDs, and then I had to install and run Skywing Client Extender before I could see games in the multiplayer browser:

http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=nw ... ail&id=231

It should have a readme to explain the install process. I ended up getting help from Zelknolf on IRC, but you should be able to get it sorted from these links. Good luck!
Thanks Heegz, those linked worked and I'm back in-game :twisted:

Funny... I decide to check ALFA out again all of 2-days later, and see a thread with a bunch of names that I remember from occasional message board reading way back when.

I'm probably going to have to use those links too.
Current PC: I'm not tellin'. They die when I put their names here.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes. I really do appreciate it :)

Now, just need some RP buddies to shake the rust off with.

Cheers,

Kate
