How do I see or interact with the Text-input User Interface?
I don't see a "Send message" box anywhere.
Also the area map/map window - how do I access this? I only have the area map that you normally see with the game.

EDIT: disregard please, just read about "/showui"

Hey Skywing, I have a question/feature request if I may, and if you still work on this?

Are you able to code in new GUI commands with the client extension? For example something similar to ExecuteServerScript() ui command?

I know there is currently a sendmesagetopc server command, but I would like something instantaneous based on a UI action on the player side.

Would you be able to add in a ClearCurrentTarget gui command that I could call in a custom GUI?

This would be the same as setting the current target to OBJECT_INVALID.

Or even just the client command of selecting nothing (e.g. the ground) as a target.

Hi, just started using the Client Extension. First off, you rock for making this and thank you so much for taking the time and effort. Especially for working with the fan base to save Internet Multiplayer :D

I wanted to ask about something I'm seeing on the new Internet Multiplayer list. I'm seeing all the servers fine, but they all read "Full" or "Party". I... honestly don't recall what Party means, but I do recall that generally some servers would have room when I last played about a year and a half ago.
Is the Full indicator for real? Or might that be a false indicator?

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

I believe full and party refers to player vs. player (PVP) settings.  As set by the host server. Something along the lines of;  Full – a pc can
attack anyone, while Party – a pc can attack those within their party.  Or something like that.

Yeah, the client extender is very cool.

For me, NWN2 is unplayable on my current PC without the CE, due to the animation/movement timer glitches. Even straight from a fresh reboot, the glitch happens. So, thanks for fixing that!

I'd like to report a bug I am seeing though. I am not sure is a CE bug or a bug with the module I am playing, but the bug doesn't happen if I run without the CE.

The module is Baldur's Gate Reloaded (available on the nexusmods site), and what happens is when I try to transition areas, the NWN2 client hangs (windows reports it as not responding), but the CE console still works.

I click on the Area Transition object, which brings up the BGR World Map (which looks like a modification of the overland map). I can click on a target location, or the list of locations on the right, but when I click the Travel button, the NWN2 client hangs.

There is nothing in the logs to indicate anything is wrong that I can see, other than it is truncated (cut off) at a point earlier in the game session (probably didn't get flushed to disk before the hang).

I'm on Windows 8 Pro using the GoG Complete Edition of the game.

Let me know if there's any more info I can provide, as I'd love to play the BGR module.

Thanks!

I will add my praise here for this as well - fixed my stuttering problem. It does crash after exiting in fs window, however. Nothing tragic.

So, how does this work?

I hosted a game and then joined irt using this extension, but it says in the game that I failed to join due to CDKey stuff, I thought this was supposed to bypass the "no more support for legit online play because we are greedy pricks" issue.

As far as I know, CD Key issues are completely seperate from the lack of Gamespy servers/login. CD Keys were never tied to your login, which is why you could have as many as you wanted, but instead tied to your copy of the game.

So whatever CD Key you entered was probably just typo'd :)

Alright, I must be doing something completely wrong but would appreciate any help.

I downloaded NWN2 Complete from GOG.com and installed with their installer. I'm on Windows 7 64 bit.

Downloaded the CE v. 1.0.0.24, put the unzipped folder in the same directory as my NWN2 install. Ran hdlinstall.reg, then applied ClientExtension.hdl while running the game. Nothing happened. Exitted the game and tried launching with NWLauncher.exe, but I keep getting an error that says I have no disc inserted, please insert the CD/DVD. Option to retry or cancel. Whichever option I choose, the error occurs again and then once I try to cancel I get error code 1 (game exited early).

Any help would be much appreciated! nwn2reportlog is emprty.

I think the problem is NWLauncher.exe not pointing at the NWN2 install directory.

Definitely something wrong Karakth... NWN2 (ver 1.23) should NOT be asking for the DVD to play.
...
When you open the game and the play/option/etc window comes up, what version does it say it is?
If it is not v1.23, then there lies the issue regarding the DVD, and most likely the issue with your CE not opening.
Update the version in the vault:

Let me know if that helps...
Erik.

It's version 1.23... Even tried running the updater to no avail.

Don't get me wrong, I'm able to start the game without any problems - Just not with the CE.

Can you give us a rundown of the steps you do (step by step play) ?
Erik.

Sure.

1) Run the GOG installer to download and install NWN2 Complete (with both expansions)
2) Download the latest CE version (1.0.0.24) from the vault.
3) Unzip to a folder with the CE in it (in my case it's on the desktop).
4) Run hdlinstall.reg
5) Start NWN2 client normally. While in the main menu, right-click ClientExtension.hdl and click apply.
6) Nothing happens - No error messages, no windows load.
7) Quit NWN2.
8) Double click NWLauncher.exe (from the CE folder)
9) Get the "no disc in drive" error

You don't need to do anything to the hdlinstall.reg or the ClientExtension.hdl with the GOG version.

The problem is that you're running the launcher from a folder on your desktop. You need to move all of those files into your NWN2 program directory. Then just run the NWLauncher.exe.

Yup I thought that was the problem too - So I tried both: Putting the CE folder in the install directory and running NWLauncher.exe AND putting all the files into the main install directory and running NWLauncher.exe from there. Both had the same result - No disc inserted.

To be absolutely clear, the direction is to put all of the CE files directly in the folder that contains the file nwn2main.exe, and not in a folder within that folder.

Yes, tried that also (although as far as I can tell, the location of the CE shouldn't matter) but still getting the same error.

That is very strange Karakth.
Has anyone on the CE forums been experiencing the same issue?
What about the NWN2 Vault site? Anyone there been saying the same?

Have you tried a clean NWN2 uninstall/install yet?

To be honest that's the only thing I haven't tried but so far the game seems to be working well enough without the CE. I just heard about the great features and would have liked to try it out online!

Haven't heard of anyone else having the same issue.

I will certainly agree, the options are amazing, especially if you are logged onto a server that uses NWNX4... If you have the patience, try the reinstall and see if that works.
...I still find it weird, I bought my game from GOG.com, never had an issue with the CE...

Karakth,
I was having the exact same problem as you. I fixed it just now by doing a fresh install and adding my CD key to the game, then applying the client extension after starting the game (option B from the instructions). I think the CD key was the problem. Hope that helps.
