By: Shia Luck Original: [] UPDATED 30th October 2011 There are two main ways to put NWN onto a windows 7 or Vista machine. Copy from an Existing Installation: If you have a new machine as well as your old machine and a home network or flash drive etc and simply want to transfer your nwn to the new machine, then the easiest thing to do is use windows explorer to copy from the old machine to the new, and then delete it from the old machine. You keep all your settings and everything using this method. (Only use this method if your NWN is patched and working perfectly) 1. On the win 7 machine, use windows explorer to find your NWN install on your old machine and drag and drop the complete nwn folder to c drive on your new machine. In the nwn folder find nwnmain.exe and nwn.exe. Right click on these and select properties. Set them to run with full permissions, as administrator and under compatibility mode windows XP service pack 2 or 3. (If your old machine was vista, then this has probably already been done, but check anyway!) 4. (If you want a desktop shortcut) Right click on nwnmain.exe and create a shortcut. Drag and drop this to your desktop. Update your drivers for video and sound. (go to the manufacturers of your cards' support pages. Laptop support pages can be very behind the times) Install from Disk or Download(GOG or Impulse): 1. Install game using a custom install. When you are given the path to the install folder, change the path using the browse folder button so that it is NOT installed in 'programs (x86)', but directly on C drive. Do not make any shortcuts during the install process. (Diamond edition disc only) Run the patch on the disk. (Disk install only) and install it. (Both GOG and Impulse versions are correctly patched). Open NWN folder and find nwnmain.exe and nwn.exe. Right click on these and select properties. Set them to run with full permissions, as administrator and under compatibility mode windows XP service pack 2 or 3. (If you want a desktop shortcut) Right click on nwnmain.exe and create a shortcut.

Laptop support pages can be very behind the times) Good Luck. If you buy a new copy of NWN and want to play custom modules, it's advisable to apply this rebuild to patch to release 1.69. Bioware has taken down the NWN website and the critical rebuild downloads are now difficult to find. I've posted them here just in case anyone needs it. Hope it helps! Thanks to The_Krit for the links! INSTRUCTIONS: If you have NO expansions installed you need the file named 'NWN Critical Rebuild'. ![]() Neverwinter Nights Windows 7 Compatibility IssuesIf you have SOU installed but NOT HOTU you need the file named 'SOU Critical Rebuild'. If you have HOTU installed you need the file named 'HOTU Critical Rebuild'. You also use this file if you have both HOTU and SOU installed. Please post any questions you have in the comments section. I can still confirm the same thing. My avast antivirus is stopping the download of 169HotU at about 10 kb and flagging this file as malware (Win32:Evo-gen [Susp]). Edit: users of avast, you have to disable the shields to download these files. Avast considers them -- for whatever reason -- to be suspicious, resulting in a false positive. Right click the little orange avast icon in the system tray (this assumes windows prior to 8), where you get the option to disable all shields for a period you specify. Just remember to turn them back on! Edit2: Remember to leave the shields OFF while unpacking and installing the update file. Avast can be annoyingly over-zealous and will quarentine the entire file even during unpacking, and you'll have to download it again. I had to install this, to use the toolset with GOG.com version. Neverwinter Nights 2 Free DownloadI compared it to a vanilla GOG.com install, and noticed, the data directory is 3.2 gigs with this installed, and GOG.com only is 2.9GB. It seems like the GOG.com version ships with only the data from a previous patch, it is missing functions that were added in 1.67 (SetName,GetName.) and does not have BASE_ITEM_TRIDENT, and in general it seems GOG.com isn't shipping the game with a complete 1.69 patch installed. You can verify it for yourself by installing the game with and without the patch and notice that the GOG.com version is missing quite a lot of content.
