Override folder not working
« on: July 04, 2012, 03:47:50 pm »


               Hi,

I recently reinstalled my NWN + expansions (the separate expansions, not the diamond pack) on my Windows 7 (after a bit of trouble due to compatiblity issues, which thanks to the guide here I solved), all was going nice and well until I decided to put some basic overrides (animation changers, heads, and such) on my override, none of those worked. I tested more extensive haks on the override and they didn't work either. Is this another of the feared compatilibty issues; that the Override folder doesn't work? Is there any way to solve this? I'm the only one having this problem?

Thanks!

               Might sound quite silly, but what are you testing it with, exactly? Is it in your base NWN /Override folder? Are you putting them inside other folders? Erm...  in your nwn.ini file, do you have a "OVERRIDE=.\\override" entry? I really can't think of many things that'd cause it to ignore the entire folder. :x

               <unpacking...>

Another thought, are your overrides unpacked? NwN only looks in the top level of the override folder and it only looks at individual files, so you can't drop haks, etc in there directly. You have to extract them, if they don't extract themselves.

               Yes, Rubies, I'm using the default override folder...

That is probably right Rolo.... I'll test it. It's been a while since I did anythning with NWN, so I probably forgot about that.
