My brother and I have been trying to get Neverwinter Nights 1 working on our LAN for a while now. I have the old Platinum  Edition and he got the Complete Collection. We tried to play over LAN but the game only works for the host. Basically what happens is whoever is doing the "connecting"; once the game loads up their character just stands there. When clicking to move somewhere, they walk in place. Stranger yet is that no matter what character is loaded, it always says "Level 1 Chaotic Good Fighter" regardless of level, class and alignment. The host experiences no such problems, the game runs fine. First time we thought it was because he was host. So we swapped, and I became the host. Then his character did it. 

I know all about the lack of compatability with Win7, and wouldn't be surprised if that is the true issue behind this. It doesn't matter how we configure the ip of the host to the router, what we do with the router, what we do with config files, etc. The game shows up, we can see it, we can connect to it. I have read problems people were having where the server doesn't appear and stuff like that no such issue here. In all reality there is nothing I can think of that should be making this not work. I'm at a loss. I have no idea what is left to do.

Here is how it lies:
-Both PCs are running Windows 7 64-bit. The router is a Linksys E3200.

-All the ports and ranges required for the game are open on the router; Firewall settings have been made to allow the game to run over the network without blocking.

-As mentioned, neither game is a hack, a cd crack or anything of the sort (both completely legitimate copies) - This one I can not stress enough because a hundred google searches of this problem lead me to people whining about playing over LAN on one CD key.

-nwplayer.ini has been manipulated on both PCs (including the client port #, which are not the same on each PC)

-Both games are updated to 1.69 (goes without saying)

As a workaround, I tried setting up a dedicated server, but neither host nor connecting  persons are allowed to log in to the game. nwserver keeps saying "Idle, login not allowed" or something. I have no clue if that is related or not but wouldn't be surprised.

Hopefully someone has encountered this so I can get an answer, the internet has been straight up unhelpful, much to my chagrin. I am incredibly open to ideas at this point.

<offering a little...>

You might read "would like to start a Lan game with my friend". HipMaestro gives a quikie tute on it, but it sounds like you've done most of that.

Have you configured the server section of your nwnplayer.ini?

What module are you trying to play? When a server won't allow players it usually means that a hak is missing. Have you tried just playing the original campaign?

The quickest way to troubleshoot a module is to try to load it in the toolset, the toolset will complain about missing hak files by name.

Idle, login not allowed

This indicates that the server itself was lacking some critical resource

Check the following.

1. The module is present in the modules folder.
2. The module has been provided all the hak files it needs.
3. The module has been provided all the tlk files it needs.

Then go to your logs directory, and look at the nwserverlog.txt file, and post the latest entry from it.
It usually indicates what is wrong.

That is what we have been trying to play. No sense in trying to get a module to work if we can't even play the vanilla game.

Can each of you load the game in single player?
