It is simpler to reinstall the client - - NWclient- that system that took over from gamespy that you need to install because gamespy is dead. Its easier to reinstall that than the game.(that includea a file that you run once after installation) (sadly computers are not perfect and occassonial you need to reinstall software to fic the errors that have crept in over time) - - in fact run that file again before you reinstall to see if that fixes the issue (sorry at work can name the file -but instructions are in the readme)
And if you google NWN scry -- - you get a page of all the NWN1 and NWN2 servers - and their direct IP addresses I copy FRC address - and paste into direct connect in multiplayer mode in the game.
(I have begun to hate windows updates - it usually makes my older games go defunct - I have turned off all updating options - so I infact have a win7 machine still rather than it being upgraded to win10 - - you might have to try rollback the update - to see if that fixes your problem)

Has Windows installed any updates since you were last able to connect, by any chance?[/quote]
Don't think so. I turned off the auto update.

Somethimes you have to take the Occam's Razor approach and try the simplest solution. If you haven't done it, reinstall the game. Especially if you have other games that you are having no trouble connecting with online. Save the game on an external hard drive befpre reinstall. Less hassle.

Try direct connect by making a frc short cut if you know how.

The point of reinstalling the game is correction of corrupted or errored files.... So no, it really wont save any hassle.

When you start the game, do you use the NWN CX loader or the game's NWNmain executable?

Can you connect to other servers? I can do everything except connect to multiplayer servers. I have no problems with the original campaigns. Okay. So you have internet. You can use the game but can't connect to a multiplayer server. Sounds like a firewall/antivirus issue. What are you using for both?

portforward.com/neverwinter-nights/UDP: 5120-5300,6500,6667,27900,28900 It is necessary to check if connections between your PC and FRC server by specified UDP ports are allowed.

Well folks, it looks like I may be gone for an extended time. I went ahead and uninstalled everything related to Neverwinter Nights on my computer. Even though there are no files associated with the game, Neverwinter Nights still shows in the settings area where you see all the apps. It says unavailable and won't let me do anything. I tried reinstalling the game from my original set of disks, but I can't get them to auto run and can't start the installation. Not sure what I'm going to do next, but I'll keep you posted and try to return when I can. DMs, I thought this was going to be a short request for help when I posted this. Feel free to move this to another area if you want.

Feel free to move this to another area if you want. When you say you can't install... did you try opening the folder for the drive and running the setup executable as administrator? And I hate to suggest putting more money into it since you already bought the game, but if worse comes to worst it's only 10 bucks on GOG.

you may need to run - - regedit - and remove the nwn folder -- and also delelte folders left behind the registry keeps track of authorisations of games - and when you uninstall a game it should go and delete that entry. It has happened to me that a folder that was not deleted caused problems and a registry entry did the same. You should first of all turn off your machine - wait 10 secs or more and restart (a hot restart sometimes doesnt do the job) that might clear the registry entry. Otherwise you will have to do it manually

Check that the NWN folder wherever you installed the game is gone or empty. Then just reinstall the game and see how it goes.

Just to let you all know, I was finally able to get the game installed last night after reverting to a previous version of Windows, and uninstalling and reinstalling the game.....twice. After I load the proper files for this game I will hopefully be able to play again. Thanks for all the advice and help.

Grivel just to let you know that when a program won't let you install and is still showing on your computer then it's a sign that it did not uninstall properly the first time- either you did not follow the proper uninstall procedure or something went wrong. I've had numerous times when I wanted to re-install games, NWN included, where an uninstall went awry and I had to repeat the process for it to take effect properly.
Either way, it's a problem you've already fixed but it's just something I wanted to point out in case it happens to you again.

This is a rather random request... I recently changed one of my spells for wounding whisper in order to use a Sonic Weapon Focus item. When I try to use it, the script says I don't have acid fog in order to use this item. I've had the item for a very long time, is it possible that the script on it has corrupted over the years? Or maybe I just don't know how to use it.
Edit: PM sent Item replaced. {Pandora}

Similar things happen sometimes with tents not working if bought during a certain reset cycle, I forget why but sometimes custom item scripts just break and that item won't function and you just need a replacement from a DM

Disclaimer: It wasn't me! Pickpocketing can be done any number of times in the same day. The total net value may not exceed 500 gold within that day. A PC may pickpocket your PC 500 times, gaining 1 gold each, and be in line with the rules. Obviously it isn't so cut and dry on the numeric value Hope it helps ... However, if you feel someone stole values from you that far supercede 500 .. you need to PM a DM.

FYI: It is not safe to steal anything in old Njord, even one gold. It is better to ask him for money. Njord is good man and glad to help. But he is vindictive...

In case if totally, thief receive only 500 gold per day. But in case if per character, total profit can be much better. That's 500 gold per PC. A rogue is able to steal from 10 different PC's, netting 5,000 gold, for example. That's not really worth the mechanical effort, but there ya go. Edit: By the way, that 500 marker is technically not a set value, in terms of raw gold, but it is understood. When the rules directly convey that an item valuing 500 and above be given back, then sense most common should yield actual gold taking, to 500 too. Generally a safe interpretation

As for me, steal of item is quite tricky thing, because, in fact, there are two, even more prices for this item.
1. Sale price, which is depend of appraise skill and roll.
2. Order price, which is depend of appraise skill and roll.
As example, for Njord, dagger +1 to sale price is between 500 and 600 gold. But he have pay between 4000 and 5000 gold to order it.
