Me and my buddy both have nwn2 gold and soz installed and updated.  I have vista 32 bit and he has xp home
we have played a set of characters all the way thru the original campaign and most of the way trhough MoTB.
We also started a soz game and it locked up on my side yesterday.  Not sure if that has anything to do with my problem or not but....  Now it seems when i join his game that he is hosting that when i try to join his game with a character that has been in his game and he saved that it crashes to desktop.. the only things i have done out of the ordinary is my main character that i have been playing i duped some items.. I did transfer some of that to my rogue... I was able to load my rogue aup and play in his game until he saved it server side.. Now I cannot join his game with either my exported charcter or the saved game version server side.  I do have a router hooked up but it never caused trouble before,  I also have windows firewall,myantivirus and evertyhing else possible turned off.  How is it that a charcter I exported to my computer locally cant join his game?  duped items? router problems?  I can start a single player game with no crashes.. can join a persisten world/other multiplayer game with no problems... and can seem to join his game with characters that have never been to his server.... I have no  idea what could possibly have changed between now and then.  It seemed to change after it froze in SoZ but maybe i'm paranoid.. Is their a corrupted character scanner or somthing or what...

help :)

There is an issue if you have a character file in use, which uses feats or other features with a slightly different configuration, it crashes upon showing the screen that lists all your characters. It freaks out because it is trying to refer to items on those characters which don't exist. Try removing all the items in your character vault and creating a new character and see if the problem goes away.



I suspect this is part of the issue--if a character is causing it to crash there is not much you can do about it except recreate the character, you might be able to use some sort of editor to fix it.



Another thing you can try is getting the NWN2 client extension, it fixes some issues with the hotbar causing a crash. ( try turning off hotbars before you load the game ). It also fixes a lot of issues in resource loading. Really it has so many things fixed you should just use it, but not sure if it fixes your issue or not.

I joined his game yesterday with a first level character that has no items and never played with his character and I joined his game and was able to export my character,logout and login back in no problem. I then had him do a server side save and after that point I wuz not able to join his game without nwn crashing. For some reason its done that to 3 different characters. I can make a single player game no problem, join other peoples multiplayer games, but not his. I guess ill uninstall everything and redo it ,not sure what else to do...

Do you have a crash log, might be something skywing or another NWN2 deity can look at and make a work around for in the client extension.



It might be he needs to reinstall things too, and you both need to be on the same sheet of music. Note most PW's don't use local vault, and instead require everyone to have the character on the server. You might want to look at preventing usage of your local vault characters.
