Old How to Play on TSM NWN2

AcadiusLost · Post by **AcadiusLost** » Tue Apr 08, 2008 11:21 am

Module is updated to a new version, with new statics by Rick, and considerable work on Silverymoon Exterior (now north and south) by Indio.

For those having trouble obtaining the files via worldgate, the following links offer direct downloads of current files:

Haks and tlk are linked here:

http://www.alandfaraway.org/docs/Technical/Downloads

current PWC can be downloaded here:

http://download.alandfaraway.org/downlo ... 03_tsm.rar

As usual, these files need to be unRAR'ed to be used, and should be placed in the /my documents/neverwinter nights 2/hak, /tlk, and /pwc directories, respectively.

I still recommend the worldgate, as it is much faster than downloading the entire files over again if you've got previous versions to work from. Even if you've had trouble with Worldgate consistently before, you should be able to use it successfully down the line once you've got downloaded copies of the files in question already.

Good hunting with the bugs.

I received a message that the server was behind a firewall and thus I may not be able to connect to it. I had no problems connecting, but the server appears to be incredibly laggy now. I don't know if this is related or merely a random occurrance.

Ditto

I've reset the router, which should help with connecting- some of the lag may have been due to uploading the module to the DMFTP (takes 3 hours to do).

I'm currently DLing the updates, but I have to say I was nearly nauseated when I was trying to do some testing last night due to the lag of anything from 5 seconds and up to over a minute between click/response. I wound up dead before I could respond to the threat.

The weird thing is that after my toon got croaked things speeded up to between 2 and 10 seconds lag. I simply can't account for the sudden lack of the nasty lag, as I had logged in and out several times after creating my toon and the lag was consistently horrible,.. until my toon got croaked and I arrived in the morgue. From that moment it was much easier to get around and even survive two battles.

I could only attribute it to (as AL said) the mod uploading to the DM Vault. I have never had a lag issue while on the server myself, and my ping is remarkably good considering i am half a world away from where the mod is hosted (sits around 260-270)

I checked in briefly this morning, and server response was much improved.

Gee, thanks

So no, there is no answer to the actual issue.

Errr...use the links in what indio quoted to manually download what you need until the issue (that not everyone is having) can be found and sorted?

Sounds like an answer to me.

Not unless one of us can fix Microsoft Windows machine code, because when I searched for that error, I found only Microsoft help pages.

I would suggest posting the error on the Worldgate page on the vault to see if the author has any idea.

Got some problem with the worldgate as well... whenever I try to download pressing the "test and exit" button I get
following message: "could not save pw description 'C:\Program Files(x86)\Worldgate\worldgate\ALFA.pw'"

most likely some silly thing I've overlooked but..

any help would be appreciated

PWC files were updated last night - all players should run WorldGate to get the newest versions. Small update - only took me about 30 seconds.

Thanks Curm. Sorry I had to log. Logging back in now to see if I can shake some of the lag.
